How excess holiday eating disturbs your 'food clock' 2013-01-25

By University of California, San Francisco (UCSF)

If the sinful excess of holiday eating sends your system into butter-slathered, brandy-soaked overload, you are not alone: People who are jet-lagged, people who work graveyard shifts and plain-old late-night snackers know just how you feel. All these acti

Study hints that stem cells prepare for maturity much earlier than anticipated 2013-01-25

By Stowers Institute for Medical Research

Unlike less versatile muscle or nerve cells, embryonic stem cells are by definition equipped to assume any cellular role. Scientists call this flexibility “pluripotency,” meaning that as an organism develops, stem cells must be ready a

Eating asparagus may prevent a hangover, study suggests 2013-01-25

By Institute of Food Technologists (IFT)

With New Year's Eve just around the corner, there is always plenty of good food and cheer. If you are drinking alcohol you may want to reach for some asparagus, according to a study that found asparagus may aid the body in accelerating the metabolism of a

Cellular metabolism arms T cells to battle viruses and tumors 2013-01-25

By Trinity College Dublin

New research demonstrates that the cellular metabolism of certain immune cells is closely linked to their function, which includes protecting against viral infections and the development of tumors. Results recently published reveal the relationship betwee

Nutrient-sensing enzymes key to starvation response and survival in newborn mammals 2013-01-25

By Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research

In the perilous hours immediately after birth, a newborn mammal must survive the sudden loss of food supply from its mother. Under normal circumstances, newborns mount a metabolic response to ward off starvation until feeding occurs. This survival respons

Small easy changes can lead to sustainable weight loss and healthier eating habits 2013-01-25

By Cornell Food & Brand Lab

Making small easy changes to our eating habits on a consistent basis -- 25 days or more per month -- can lead to sustainable weight loss, according to researchers. The challenge is to figure out which changes work for specific individuals and how to st

Impaired melatonin secretion may play a role in premenstrual syndrome 2013-01-25

By Douglas Mental Health University Institute

Researchers shows altered body rhythms of the hormone melatonin in premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) women with insomnia. This finding may help explain some of the sleep disruptions experienced by women with PMDD, also known as premenstrual syndrome.

By American Society for Microbiology

Researchers report for the first time the seroprevalence of three strains of avian influenza viruses in pigs in southern China, but not the H5N1 avian influenza virus. Their research has implications for efforts to protect the public health from pandemics

First ever 'atlas' of T cells in human body 2013-01-25

By Columbia University Medical Center

By analyzing tissues harvested from organ donors, researchers have created the first ever "atlas" of immune cells in the human body. Their results provide a unique view of the distribution and function of T lymphocytes in healthy individuals. In

Supportive role models, coping lead to better health in poor teens 2013-01-25

By Society for Research in Child Development

While low socioeconomic status is often a strong determinant of chronic disease, new research shows that low-income teenagers who have supportive role models and who use adaptive coping strategies have lower levels of interleukin-6, a marker for cardiovas

Discovery provides therapeutic target for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 2013-01-25

By Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center

Researchers have found that the ability of a protein made by a gene called FUS to bind to RNA is essential to the development of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This discovery identifies a possible therapeutic target for the fatal neurological diseas

Heart calcium scan predictive of diabetes-related death from cardiovascular disease 2013-01-25

By Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center

People with Type 2 diabetes have two to four times the risk of cardiovascular disease compared to people without the disease. The best way for doctors to predict which diabetes patients are at the greatest risk for heart disease is to use a coronary arter
