Coat of proteins makes viruses more infectious and facilitates plaque formation in Alzheimer's

New research from Stockholm University and Karolinska Institutet shows that viruses interact with proteins in the biological fluids of their host which results in a layer of proteins on the viral surface.

CBO projects lower health law cost; Oregon lawmakers seek marketplace probe

The cost estimate from the Congressional Budget Office takes into account lower-than-projected enrollment this year. Meanwhile, Oregon's Democratic senators ask the Government Accountability Office to examine federal funding of that state's website a day after House Republicans make a similar request.

Dangerous agitations: Nicotine replacement therapy needs to be tested in ICU setting

Nicotine withdrawal can cause dangerous agitation in intensive care patients. Researchers writing in BioMed Central's open access journal Critical Care found that, compared to non-smokers, agitated smokers were more likely to accidentally remove tubes and catheters, require supplemental sedative, analgesic or anti-psychotic medications, or need physical restraints.

Study finds abnormal alternative RNA splicing patterns in aggressive prostate cancer

Aggressive forms of prostate cancer don't act the way they should, hanging on to genetic materials called introns that should be thrown away, a new six-year study led by Dean Tang, Ph.D., and Song Liu, Ph.D., of Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has revealed.

Ultrafast photodynamics of DNA

DNA, the molecule that acts as the carrier of genetic information in all forms of life, is highly resistant against alteration by ultraviolet light, but understanding the mechanism for its photostability presents some puzzling problems. A key aspect is the interaction between the four chemical bases that make up the DNA molecule.
