Challenging but essential targets for genuine anti-ageing drugs.
Contrary to what one might conclude from the popular press, anti-ageing drugs do not yet exist, in the sense in which the term 'drug' is normally used. Since a drug is assumed to be effective against its target human pathology and since the vast majority of deaths in the developed world are from ageing-related causes, it is inappropriate to describe something as an anti-ageing drug unless one h...
متن کاملChallenges and dreams: physics of weak interactions essential to life
Biological systems display stunning capacities to self-organize. Moreover, their subcellular architectures are dynamic and responsive to changing needs and conditions. Key to these properties are manifold weak "quinary" interactions that have evolved to create specific spatial networks of macromolecules. These specific arrangements of molecules enable signals to be propagated over distances muc...
متن کاملA method to trap transient and weak interacting protein complexes for structural studies
Several key biological events adopt a "hit-and-run" strategy in their transient interactions between binding partners. In some instances, the disordered nature of one of the binding partners severely hampers the success of co-crystallization, often leading to the crystallization of just one of the partners. Here, we discuss a method to trap weak and transient protein interactions for crystalliz...
متن کاملChallenging weak-scale supersymmetry at colliders.
Experimental searches for supersymmetry are entering a new era. As future experiments explore the mass range above the current lower bounds on superpartner masses, a failure to observe signals of superpartner production will begin to erode the central motivation for supersymmetry at the weak scale. In this article we present a detailed examination of which regions of supersymmetric parameter sp...
متن کاملTracheal Agenesis: Rare but Challenging
Our patient was a baby boy born term by normal vaginal delivery, without any apparent external abnormality (Weight: 3Kg; Height: 50 cm; Head circumference: 35.5cm), to a 27 year old mother G2 P1, non consanguineous parents, pregnancy complicated by polyhydramnios, with an APGAR score of 0 and 8 at 1 and 5 minutes respectively. He was intubated and ventilated (difficult intubation). However, he ...
