    Notes: [Auszug] Alzheimer's disease is the main form of dementia in today's ageing population. It is characterized by abnormal protein deposits in the brain, such as the extracellular amyloid plaques and the intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. The tangles are made up of a protein called tau, which is modified ...

    Notes: [Auszug] We have chemically analysed the ancient organic contents of vessels from the Tumulus MM, ‘Midas Mound’, the site at Gordion in central Turkey that is the likely tomb of King Midas. The analysis revealed that a spicy meal of sheep or goat and pulses was eaten by mourners at a feast ...

    Notes: [Auszug] To provide a T-cell population that will respond promptly to foreign antigen, the immune system looks inward, using the variety of self-antigens to select and maintain a diverse repertoire of receptors. A protective immune system must include a T-lymphocyte population that is poised to respond ...

    Notes: [Auszug] The immune system provides a protective mechanism through which the body defends itself against invading organisms. For centuries, scientists and physicians have sought ways to increase the body's ability to resist these pathogens, as well as to solve the riddles of diseases that occur when the ...

    Notes: [Auszug] The hearings held by the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) last week into problems that have arisen in adenovirus-based gene-therapy trials revealed clear breaches of protocol by some of the field's leading researchers, and inadequacies in the state of experimentation (see page 707). ...

    Notes: [Auszug] It has certainly been an interesting third millennium. High points that spring to mind are the intergalactic wormhole expeditions — all 13 of them. All departed as planned. Of course, none of them has returned yet.... Perhaps more satisfying has been the global reduction of greenhouse gases. ...
