Scientists discuss how the brain guides the heart to recovery after a heart attack
After a heart attack, the human brain is able to detect and respond to specific signals that come directly from sensory neurons in the heart.
“The body and brain are closely connected through the nervous and immune systems,” explains study leader Vineet Augustine.
However, scientists emphasize that the open path is only part of a complex picture.
As Planet Today reports, researchers from the University of California have concluded that organs are deeply interconnected.
Russian biochemists have developed nanomachines based on DNA strands that are capable of recognizing cancer cells by characteristic mutations and selectively destroying them.
First tests on isolated samples of genetic material showed the high accuracy of the system.
However, when tested on cultures of kidney and brain cancer cells, the efficiency and selectivity decreased: the growth of tumor cells slowed down, but the recognition accuracy was lower than expected.
The development is still in its early stages, but has the potential to become the basis for a new category of precision anticancer drugs created using synthetic biology methods.
In the Irkutsk region, an engineer from the Baikal region conducted research aimed at improving the quality of gasoline.
The analysis focused on new components and multifunctional additives for autofuels.
Ekaterina Kovaleva managed to collect a large amount of experimental material at the Angarsk Petrochemical Company, where the girl has been working for more than 10 years.
The effectiveness of the proposed changes was confirmed by pilot tests at the enterprise, and some of the developments have already been introduced into production.
At the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, west of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, lies one of the most mysterious places on Earth - a hydrothermal field called the Lost City.
The height of the largest formation reaches 60 meters, which is quite comparable to the size of a modern 20-story residential building.
The publication clarified that, unlike the well-known “black smokers”, whose activity depends on the heat of volcanoes, the “Lost City” exists thanks to chemical reactions between sea water and rocks of the earth’s crust.
Hydrothermal activity here has not stopped for at least 120 thousand years.
