Rochester researchers showed for the first time that a natural antioxidant found in grape skins and red wine can help destroy pancreatic cancer cells by reaching to the cell’s core energy source, or mitochondria, and crippling its function.

The new study also showed that when the pancreatic cancer cells were doubly assaulted — pre-treated with the antioxidant, resveratrol, and irradiated — the combination induced a type of cell death called apoptosis, an important goal of cancer therapy.

The fact that resveratrol has effects on the mitochondria of cancer cells is particularly interesting, since mitochondria are known to play an important role in apoptosis. One of the main ways cancer therapies such as radiation and chemotherapy kill cancer cells is by inducing apoptosis. However, advanced cancers develop ways of evading apoptosis. (See here.) If resveratrol independently interferes with the function of the mitochondria in cancer cells, that would be helpful.

Cracking the Code of Sexual Chemistry and Attraction

 Our attraction to others may be about having the right chemistry after all. For decades, scientists have studied why humans are attracted to each other and have found that dating and mating is influenced by pheromones, powerful chemicals produced by the body.

Pheromones are natural air-borne chemical hormones the body produces to attract the opposite sex. You can’t see them or smell them, yet they can be powerful enough to instantly draw another person in. They are now thought to be the key to the chemistry of “love at first sight.”

An effective topical pheromone formula for men has been developed with Dr. Virgil Amend. “Our understanding of the human capacity to sense pheromones, and the nerve pathways that that deliver those signals to the brain, have paved the way to the development of this powerful formulation. Had it not been for this understanding, we would not have known which pheromones, and the exact concentrations to use,” explains Amend.

Scientists have known for decades about an organ just inside the nasal cavity called the vomeronasal organ (VNO). It appears that the sole function of the VNO is to detect trace amounts of pheromones, and in turn, to stimulate the limbic region of the brain, also known as the “Seat of Emotions.” This area of the brain is responsible for our emotions and passionate desires.

Specialized nerve pathways known as “Nerve O” run directly from the VNO to the limbic region. These specialized nerves were thought to remain dormant the majority of the time, but have now been confirmed to become quite active when subjected to specific human pheromones. The evidence tells us that humans do, in fact, respond to pheromones just as animals do!

According to the Mayo Clinic, putting ice on a burn can cause frostbite and damage the skin. For better results, try running cool water over the area and taking a pain reliever. Then cover the area with gauze but no ointment. Most minor burns heal without further treatment, the clinic says.

It turns out that a compound called resveratrol might — in high doses — activate the SIRT-1 gene to extend the life of skin cells. But resveratrol is notoriously unstable as a molecule, so Estee Lauder came up with a way to create a cosmetic-friendly compound dubbed “resveratrate.” Recently, resveratrol has been reported as a compound often found in red wine that contributes to slowing down the aging process.

The next wave in health care may include a brigade of medical nanobots, devices tiny enough to ride the flow of blood through the body’s arteries to a problem area. The bots might arrive at a clot, for example, and then using an internal power system, obliterate the clot with a precisely targeted drug or therapy. Designing a power source to accomplish such a task has been a challenge, but from the College of Veterinary Medicine at Cornell University comes a possible answer. The same molecular power packs that fuel sperm in their journey through the uterus and to a fallopian tube might be copied and used to keep the nanomachines running once they reach their targets.
Ordinarily the ATP provides sperm with enough energy to bend and flex their tails as they swim to the unfertilized egg. Travis’s plan is to copy the design of the sperm’s engine by slightly modifying a 10-enzyme glycolysis chain embedded in the sperm’s tail, and then to install it in nanbots.

Red wine may be much more potent than was thought in extending human lifespan, researchers say in a new report that is likely to give impetus to the rapidly growing search for longevity drugs.

The study is based on dosing mice with resveratrol, an ingredient of some red wines. Some scientists are already taking resveratrol in capsule form, but others believe it is far too early to take the drug, especially using wine as its source, until there is better data on its safety and effectiveness.

The report is part of a new wave of interest in drugs that may enhance longevity. On Monday, Sirtris, a startup founded in 2004 to develop drugs with the same effects as resveratrol, completed its sale to GlaxoSmithKline for $720 million.uc

Healing Touch is a noninvasive energy therapy program founded by a registered nurse in Colorado in 1989. Its following has spread nationwide. Advocates stress that it isn’t a cure but a way of easing the stress, fatigue and nausea of radiation and chemotherapy.

The results of Stanford’s three-year clinical trial won’t be known for two more years, but some who already have undergone the therapy at a Stanford medical program called Healing Partners say they know it works.

“It’s based on the belief that our bodies are surrounded by a field of energy and our bodies themselves are a denser form of energy,” Turner said. “The belief there is that once the body’s energy is cleared and balanced, our bodies have the innate capacity to heal themselves.”

The underlying technique is age-old, advocates say, and intends to balance and align people’s energy fields so they become “whole in body, mind, emotion and spirit” - although no one knows quite how it works.People remain fully clothed. A lot of it is actual touching, but if someone has just had surgery, the healer can work above the person’s body. Healing Touch International Inc. runs a certification program across the country that many nurses take, but it’s open to everyone.
