Summer heroes still find time to save the world
Published July 4, 2009, 3:18 pm, Los Angeles Times
Despite complexities. "It's not my war," says Shia LaBeouf's Sam in "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen." "I fear it soon will be," replies the heavy-hearted towering steel of Optimus Prime. And we know, in that moment, that despite his wish to be just an ordinary guy, Sam will become the reluctant warrior. For us, sacrifices will be made. The world will be made safe. We will be saved.
Chromosomal Problems Affect Nearly All Human Embryos; Discovery May Explain Low Fertility Rates In Humans
Published July 2, 2009, 5:25 am, Medical News Today
For the first time, scientists have shown that chromosomal abnormalities are present in more than 90% of IVF embryos, even those produced by young, fertile couples.
Study Rewrites Textbook On Key Genetic Phenomenon
Published July 2, 2009, 5:23 am, Medical News Today
Because females carry two copies of the X chromosome to males' one X and one Y, they harbor a potentially toxic double dose of the over 1000 genes that reside on the X chromosome. To compensate for this imbalance, mammals such as mice and humans shut down one entire X-chromosome through a phenomenon known as X-inactivation.
Re-Write The Textbooks: Key Genetic Phenomenon Shown To Be Different Than Believed
Published July 1, 2009, 9:22 pm, Science Daily
Because females carry two copies of the X chromosome to males’ one X and one Y, they harbor a potentially toxic double dose of the over 1000 genes that reside on the X chromosome. To compensate for this imbalance, mammals such as mice and humans shut down one entire X-chromosome through a phenomenon known as X-inactivation. For almost two decades, researchers have believed that one particular ...

Team IDs Copy Number Changes In AML Genomes
Published June 30, 2009, 12:48 pm, GenomeWeb News
NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) – In a paper scheduled to appear online this week in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences , researchers from Washington University and elsewhere identified hundreds of copy number alterations in several dozen acute myeloid leukemia tumors.
Female Human Embryos Adjust The Balance Of X Chromosomes Before Implantation
Published June 30, 2009, 8:11 am, Medical News Today
Dutch researchers have found the first evidence that a process of inactivating the X chromosome during embryo development and implantation, which was known to occur in mice but unknown in humans, does, in fact, take place in human female embryos prior to implantation in the womb.
