울지않는늑대/서양늑대

햄릿, 죽느냐 사느냐 그것이 문제로다 To be, or not to be- that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them. To die- to sleep- No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to. 'Tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish'd. To die- to sleep. To sleep- per.. 더보기
Broken Cellular 'Clock' Linked to Brain Damage Nov. 25, 2013 — A new discovery may help explain the surprisingly strong connections between sleep problems and neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. Sleep loss increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease, and disrupted sleeping patterns are among the first signs of this devastating disorder. Scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and the University.. 더보기
High-Fat Diet During Puberty Speeds Up Breast Cancer Development Nov. 26, 2013 — New findings show that eating a high-fat diet beginning at puberty speeds up the development of breast cancer and may actually increase the risk of cancer similar to a type often found in younger adult women. The research comes from the Breast Cancer and the Environment Research Program at Michigan State University and is published in the current online issue of Breast Cancer Res.. 더보기
Bacteria Recycle Broken DNA: Modern Bacteria Can Add DNA from Creatures Long-Dead to Its Own Nov. 18, 2013 — From a bacteria’s perspective the environment is one big DNA waste yard. Researchers have now shown that bacteria can take up small as well as large pieces of old DNA from this scrapheap and include it in their own genome. This discovery may have major consequences – both in connection with resistance to antibiotics in hospitals and in our perception of the evolution of life itse.. 더보기
Single-Cell Genome Sequencing Gets Better Single-Cell Genome Sequencing Gets Better Nov. 10, 2013 — Researchers led by bioengineers at the University of California, San Diego have generated the most complete genome sequences from single E. coli cells and individual neurons from the human brain. The breakthrough comes from a new single-cell genome sequencing technique that confines genome amplification to fluid-filled wells with a volume.. 더보기
Global Precipitation Linked to Global Warming Global Precipitation Linked to Global Warming Nov. 11, 2013 — The rain in Spain may lie mainly on the plain, but the location and intensity of that rain is changing not only in Spain but around the globe. A new study by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists shows that observed changes in global (ocean and land) precipitation are directly affected by human activities and cannot be exp.. 더보기
Child Born With HIV Still in Remission After 18 Months Off Treatment Child Born With HIV Still in Remission After 18 Months Off Treatment Oct. 23, 2013 — A 3-year-old Mississippi child born with HIV and treated with a combination of antiviral drugs unusually early continues to do well and remains free of active infection 18 months after all treatment ceased, according to an updated case report published Oct. 23 in the New England Journal of Medicine. Early findin.. 더보기
Pandoravirus: Missing Link Discovered Between Viruses and Cells Pandoravirus: Missing Link Discovered Between Viruses and Cells Oct. 14, 2013 — With the discovery of Mimivirus ten years ago and, more recently, Megavirus chilensis[1], researchers thought they had reached the farthest corners of the viral world in terms of size and genetic complexity. With a diameter in the region of a micrometer and a genome incorporating more than 1,100 genes, these giant vi.. 더보기
New Antiviral Response Discovered in Mammals New Antiviral Response Discovered in Mammals Oct. 10, 2013 — Many viral infections are nipped in the bud by the innate immune response. This involves specific proteins within the infected cell that recognize the virus and trigger a signalling cascade -- the so-called interferon response. This activates a protective mechanism in neighbouring cells and often results in the death of the primarily i.. 더보기
