MONTREAL, QC, December 22, 2012 (Press-News.org) This decision was necessary due to the increasing demand for collateralized loans and is aimed at helping more people to get cash fast for the holidays.

"We're very excited to watch how online pawning is becoming a modern and trusted trend, leaving behind many other ways to get cash fast. We are very proud to be able to offer our best loan-to-value for our customers. And, during this busy holiday season, we are now able to serve even more customers, because we know how important it is for people to have that extra cash during this time of the year," said Jay Martin, a spokesperson for PawnUp.com online pawn shop.

As the online pawn industry continues to generate more and more attention, the demand for this new type of short-term cash loan online has been increasing rapidly. Collateralized loans (or, as they are also known, pawn loans) are becoming increasingly popular due to the simplicity of the process, very low interest rates, confidentiality and very low risks.

"Being a pioneer in the online pawn stores industry, we're trying to cater our services to as much of North America as we can, and we believe in doing whatever we can to serve as many people as possible on a daily basis, because there are a lot of folks in need and we do want to help as many as we can," Mr. Martin continued.

2012-12-21

Adults who had parents who struggled with addiction, unemployment and divorce are 10 times more likely to have been victims of childhood physical abuse, according to a new study prepared by the University of Toronto's Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work. The study, which was published online this week in the journal Child: Care, Health & Development, found that more than one-third of adults who grew up in homes where all three risk factors were present reported they had been physically abused by someone close to them while under the age of 18 and still living at home. ...

Rebuilding blood vessels through gene therapy

2012-12-21

NEW YORK (Dec. 20, 2012) -- Diagnosed with severe coronary artery disease, a group of patients too ill for or not responding to other treatment options decided to take part in a clinical trial testing angiogenic gene therapy to help rebuild their damaged blood vessels. More than 10 years later, in a follow-up review of these patients, doctors at Baylor College of Medicine, Weill Cornell Medical College (where the clinical trial and review took place) and Stony Brook University Medical Center report the outcomes are promising and open the door for larger trials to begin. The ...

Liver mitochondria improve, increase after chronic alcohol feeding in mice

2012-12-21

Scientists at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California (USC) have found evidence that liver mitochondria in mice adapt to become better metabolizers of alcohol and increase in number after chronic exposure, which may raise the potential for free radical damage associated with aging and cancer over time. The liver is a vital organ, playing a major role in metabolism and detoxification in the body. Overconsumption of alcohol has long been tied to liver diseases such as fatty liver, alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis, but how the substance damages ...

Evolution of flying bat clue to cancer and viruses

2012-12-21

The genes of long-living and virus resistant bats may provide clues to the future treatment and prevention of infectious diseases and cancer in people, researchers have found. Published in the journal Science, the research provides an insight into the evolution of bat's flight, resistance to viruses and relatively long life. Researchers at CSIRO and the Beijing Genome Institute led a team sequencing the genomes of two bat species - an Australian mega bat, the black flying fox, and a Chinese micro bat, David's Myotis. They then compared the bat genomes to the genomes of ...

The findings between DNMs and autism provides global view of mutability on human diseases

2012-12-21

December 21, 2012, Shenzhen, China – A study published online in Cell reports the latest investigation of de novo germline mutation by whole genome sequencing in autism patients. This study provides a global view of the landscape of mutability and its influence on genetic diversity and susceptibility in autism, and its implications on other human diseases. The work was a collaborative effort led by international teams comprised of the University of California, San Diego, BGI, and other institutes. The results are expected to shed new light on a deeper understanding of the ...

Targeting taste receptors in the gut may help fight obesity

2012-12-21

Despite more than 25 years of research on antiobesity drugs, few medications have shown long-term success. Now researchers reporting online on December 21 in the Cell Press journal Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism say that targeting taste sensors in the gut may be a promising new strategy. The gut "tastes" what we eat—bitter, sweet, fat, and savory—in much the same way as the tongue and through the use of similar signaling mechanisms. The result is the release of hormones to control satiety and blood sugar levels when food reaches the gut. The sensors, or receptors, ...

JCI early table of contents for Dec. 21, 2012

The X-factor in liver metabolism After you eat, your liver switches from producing glucose to storing it. At the same time, a cellular signaling pathway known as the unfolded protein response (UPR) is transiently activated, but it is not clear how this pathway contributes to the liver's metabolic switch. In this issue of the Journal of Clinical Investigation, researchers led by Phillip Scherer at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center report that activation of the UPR triggers the expression of Xbp1s, a protein that regulates genes needed for the metabolic ...
