Exercise and proper sleep can reduce cancer risk

The latest research shows that proper exercise which should be regulated ( Like 30mins daily ) and proper sleep can reduce cancer risks. Because, daily exercise maintains body metabolism in a steady way and this prevents altered metabolism within our body. Also, proper sleep which should be at least 6 hours at night can reduces the altered endocrine and metabolic functions. So, proper sleep is very important. This all can reduce cancer risks upto 55%.

Liver Stem Cells Discovered in Mice Share on email Share on facebook Share on twitter Scientists successfully identified and grew a renewable population of liver stem cells for the first time, a new study reported. Tissues derived from these stem cells slightly boosted liver function when implanted into mice with a liver disorder. The findings could eventually lead to approaches that help rejuvenate damaged livers in people. A single cell was coaxed to mature into liver cells that produce common liver proteins (green and red).  Image courtesy of Huch et al.,  Nature . The liver is a large, versatile organ that has many jobs, including cleansing blood and digesting food. The liver also has a unique ability to quickly regenerate and regain its original size if partially removed by surgery. Scientists have long known that stem cells that have the potential to create more liver cells must exist in the adult liver. But until now, no one had found a way to detect a...

Overweight and Its Relation to CHD

UNDERSTANDING CORONARY HEART DISEASE (CHD) According to current estimates, 64.4 million Americans have one or more types of cardiovascular disease. Within cardiovascular diseases, coronary heart disease (CHD) is the single largest killer of Americans. CHD caused 502,189 deaths in the US in 2001 – about 1 in every 5. The American Heart Association estimates that 13.2 million Americans have CHD. In fact, up to half of all sudden, out-of-hospital cardiac deaths occur in people with no prior diagnosis of heart disease, and over two-thirds of heart attach sufferers have blockages in their arteries considered to be clinically “insignificant” in terms of plaque burden and percent stenosis. Until recently, it was widely held that most heart attacks were caused by a gradual build-up of atherosclerotic plaque within the arteries of the heart (“hardening of the arteries”), impedes blood flow, and eventually results in blocked blood vessels that can cause acute ischemic events such as...

Protein in human blood platelets points to a new weapon against malaria

One of the world's most devastating diseases is   malaria , responsible for at least a million deaths annually, despite global efforts to combat it. Researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, working with collaborators from Drexel University, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and Johns Hopkins University, have identified a protein in human blood platelets that points to a powerful new weapon against the disease. Their work was published in this months' issue of Cell Host and Microbe. Malaria is caused by parasitic microorganisms of the Plasmodium genus, which infect red blood cells. Recent research at other universities showed that blood platelets can bind to infected red blood cells and kill the parasite, but the exact mechanism was unclear. The investigators on the Cell Host and Microbe paper hypothesized that it might involve host defense peptides (HDP) secreted by the platelets. "We eventually found that a single...
