An abnormality discovered by U-M researchers in mice with Spinocerebellar Ataxia type 3 could represent a target for therapy. In a paper published this week in the Journal of Neuroscience, U-M researchers found that a particular dysfunction in neurons occurs well before the death of neurons...
Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute have devised a much easier technique for performing a chemical modification used widely in the synthesis of drugs and other products. Known as "trifluoromethylation," the modification adds a CF3 molecule to the original compound, often making it more...
A newborn baby's weight loss is often used to determine how well a baby is breastfeeding, and concern about a baby which loses too much weight may result in supplementing breastfeeding with formula. However, many women receive IV fluids during labor, and new research published in BMC's open...

Researchers at National Jewish Health have discovered a type of cell that may contribute to autoimmune disease. The findings also suggest why diseases such as lupus, multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis strike women more frequently than men. The cells, a subset of immune-system B cells...

...dont know yet. I told them if he? I told them that if he doesnt tell them I will. This isn't something I ever expected from her. I really just need some advice on how to handle this situation. She was honest with me about it and while I can appreciate her honesty I can't allow this to...
I purchased a bike (Yamaha Thundercat) this Tuesday from eBay and have discovered a multitude of problems with it since sale. I had the bike at the shop today to have the speedo illumination bulbs replaced and the mechanic noticed a large hole in the exhaust downpipes - I was told specifically...
Swedish scientists have just discovered a new molecule—one that has the potential of boosting future rocket fuel efficiency by 20 to 30% compared to the best fuels around today. More »
A synthetic derivative of the curry spice turmeric, made by scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, dramatically improves the behavioral and molecular deficits seen in animal models of ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Two new studies suggest that the novel...
A new species of stork has been identified from Flores, which is the Indonesian island on which the famous "hobbit" fossils have been found. The "hobbit" is a form of hominid (human relative) that seems to be a diminutive form of Homo erectus but different enough from that widespread species to...
I've been working on this for some time and it is quite complicated so if you don't understand don't feel stupid, its not your fault. I have a car not sure of the name(it begins with a D if that means anything to you )which I have modified into a time machine, powered by plutonium which...

...for a certain chemical reactio.? After a series of experiments a chemist discovered that it took 80 min for a certain reaction to take place whenever he wore a green tie and the same reaction to take place 1 hr and 20 min when he wore a purple tie. How can this be?
Researchers in the Division of Cancer Prevention, Department of Medicine, Stony Brook University School of Medicine, have discovered that a novel derivative of sulindac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) known to prevent colon cancer, is more effective and safer than sulindac in...
