...phospholamban, or PLB, which they believed was responsible for heart failure, with mice that lacked the PLB gene. The resulting offspring did not develop heart failure. They also created mice carrying a defective form of PLB; in that experiment, the offspring produced by mating those mice with the mice bred to develop heart failure had a normal life span with no side effects, the researchers said. While there's no evidence yet of the gene in people, the team says that the finding could one day translate into a cure for human heart disease...
...current world record is 300 in one sittingoby a college student in Los Angeles in 1974. But it seems high time to drag the goldfish swallowing spotlight back to Boston. At $1.50 a dozen, a $38 bet should cover the costs. For the sensitive, feeder goldfish are bred to be eaten. Usually food for turtles or bigger fish, their fate is already sealed, so why not take a hint from gramps, take a trip to a pet store near you, and make a little history...
...Limit boot camp, nearly bored me to fratricide. Sad too, because the duo would seem to have everything necessary to create a listenable album: a hook (they're identical twins with biblical names--their real names are David and Daniel), legitimacy (born in the Bronx and bred in New Orleans, one of the flashpoints of southern rap) and a cause (their parents were declared unfit when they were a few weeks old). Don't bother looking for any evidence of it on Rise To Power though...
...scientists bred strains of mice with extra copies of a gene coded for a protein that can facilitate communication between neurons. Since one popular theory of memory relates this primary mental capacity to an organism's ability to make associations--say, between a bee's buzz and the pain of its bite--this enhanced communication might promote the recording of associations within the brain, thus creating memories...
