Electro-Medicine : Neurons function revealed – Video


23-11-2011 22:10 There’s a new way to explore biologys secrets. With a flash of light, scientists from the US Department of Energys Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California, Berkeley zeroed in on the type of neural cell that controls swimming in larval zebrafish. Using innovative light-activated proteins and gene expression techniques, the scientists zapped several zebrafish with a pulse of light, and initiated a swimming action in a subset of fish that was traced back to the type of neuron that drives the side-to-side motion of their tail fins. Continue reading

Massage Doesn’t Just Feel Good—It Changes Gene Expression and Reduces Inflammation | 80beats

What’s the News: If you’ve ever been told been that a massage is good for “releasing toxins”—or to sound more scientific, “lactic acid”—from your muscles, then you’ve been told wrong. Turns out muscle cells do like a good massage, but it has nothing to do with lactic acid. In the first study on the cellular effects of massage post-exercise, researchers found that massage bolsters chemical signals reducing inflammation and promoting repair of muscle cells Continue reading

This is one of the first examples in infectious disease of where an individual's genetic profile can determine which drug will work best for them ? the idea of personalised medicine that is gradually becoming familiar in cancer medicine. The scientists found that people generate an immune response to tuberculosis that is 'too much', 'too little' or 'just right', according to what versions they have of the LTA4H gene Continue reading
