What is the risk of asthma in childrenA German scientist named Michael Schemed, discovered a gene that determines the risk of asthma in children, as announced by the European Commission (EC) in a statement. The outcome of the investigation will be presented at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, which will take place next weekend in Washington.

The finding ORMDL3 gene, on chromosome 17, could evolve the knowledge we have about the disease and lead to implementation of new treatments.

The scientist responsible for the discovery, 33, began working at the University of Munich and now collaborates with Professor Michael Kibosh, allergy specialist genetics in the Medical School of Hanover.

“We have a first test of causal link between the presence of this gene on chromosome seventeen and the development of asthma, a disease that can be treated but not yet curable, “the researcher said in a statement.

Schedule has benefited from a Marie Curie Fellowship of the European Union that promotes research and has been part of the team of 220 researchers who have participated since 2008 in an exchange program between the EU and the U.S…

How stress effects 2011U.S. researchers studying the effects of stress on the intestines unexpectedly found a chemical compound that stimulates hair growth.

By blocking a hormone linked to stress and hair loss, experts achieved in a group of mice genetically engineered to produce too much of this hormone to regenerate lost hair, a team reported in the online edition of the journal Plops One

“Almost 100% of the mice responded. The hair grew back completely. It is a very dramatic effect,” said Mulugeta Million, University of California at Los Angeles, who worked on the study.

Mulugeta said the findings could open new areas of exploration on hair loss in humans, especially those in which the disorder is related to stress and aging.

The team, which included experts from the Veterans Administration and the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in California, was conducting experiments with mice that had been genetically altered to produce an excessive amount of stress-related hormone called corticotrophin releasing factor (CRF for its acronym in English).

As these chronically stressed mice got older, his hair turned gray and finally fell. Mulugeta compared the effect observed with aging to see a U.S. president after the course of two terms of four years in the White House.

The team injected the mice to block the chemical stress called stressing-B “, which stops the action of CRF. The mice received daily injections for five days, then the team measured the effects of the drug on his colon and he replaced in their cages.

“When we returned three months later, his hair had grown back completely. I could not distinguish them from their peers who had not been genetically modified,” said Mulugeta. “It was totally unexpected,” he said.

The effect remained for four months, a relatively long time in the life of a mouse, said the author. Follow-up studies confirmed the findings.

The team also evaluated the compound in modified mice younger than even they had not lost his hair and found that stressing-B avoid becoming frayed.

There is a very intelligent watch feature available in Panerai, the brand name or the Panerai replica watch, which is worth describing in detail. One model in particular in the 2011 collection showcases this feature. The Luminor Submersible 1950 is a special edition from Panerai which includes a protection plate around the winding mechanism which also serves as an alternative to the normal twist winder. Instead of winding the watch with a clockwise turn of the winding screw, a lever that must be pulled up and down which converts that energy into the traditional clockwise turn on the winder. This is not only a beautiful complication, but serves as intelligent watch protection. This is a unique trademarked feature that you will not find on any other brand. The Luminor Submersible is an all brush bronze piece that certainly rings of a previous time. The dark green dial plate is the perfect complement to this metal. On this piece in particular, the trademarked winding mechanism adds something nostalgic.
If you also find this to be an intriguing feature for the purposes of a watch collector but are not certain about the value of this mechanism, why not try it out first with a Panerai copy? Replica watch manufacturers have, in the last 10 years, greatly increased their production qualities. This mechanism is fully functional on replicas. Consider it a test run similar to the engineers working on a prototype. You can diligently examine the workings, even take it apart for inspection without the worry of ruining a serious investment. Of course the quality may not be exactly the same, but nowadays are high quality Panerai replication horologes now available on the marketplace. You will end up saving yourself a lot of money testing this feature before you commit to the full investment of a Panerai original.
