Early relationships influence teen pain and depression

Angst could be more than a rite of passage for insecure teenagers, according to a new study. Researchers have discovered that insecure adolescents experience more intense pain in the form of frequent headaches, abdominal pain and joint pain. These teens are also more likely to be depressed than peers with secure attachments.

New genetic cause of cardiac failure discovered

Over the course of a lifetime, the heart pumps some 250 million liters of blood through the body. In the order to do this, the muscle fibers of the heart have to be extremely durable. Scientists have now discovered a protein that is responsible for the stability of the smallest muscular unit, the sarcomere.

How might navy sonar affect hearing of whales and other marine animals?

Rocket science is opening new doors to understanding how sounds associated with Navy sonar might affect the hearing of a marine mammal -- or if they hear it at all.

Hippocampal theta rhythms follow the beat of their own drum

The firing of most hippocampal neurons is modulated by the theta rhythm, but it's not clear how and where the rhythm is generated. A study now shows that the required machinery for theta generation lies in local circuits of the hippocampus.

Pigment epithelium-derived growth factor: modulating adult neural stem cell self-renewal

The vascular niche-derived factor PEDF enhances Notch signaling in adult neural stem cells via an unexpected mechanism involving nuclear export of a transcriptional repressor, to promote both proliferation and multipotentiality.

Neuronal death or dismemberment mediated by Sox14

The pruning of unneeded axons and dendrites is crucial for circuitry maturation, but poorly understood on the molecular level. During Drosophila metamorphosis, the transcription factor Sox14 acts as a context-dependent mediator of death, axonal or dendritic pruning. Its transcriptional target Mical acts specifically in dendrite pruning.

Extensive valley network on Mars adds to evidence for ancient Martian ocean

Scientists have used an innovative computer program to produce a more detailed global map of Mars' valley networks. It shows the networks are much more extensive than had been previously depicted. Regions that are most densely dissected by the valley networks roughly form a belt around the planet, consistent with a past climate scenario that included precipitation and the presence of an ocean covering...

Reverse-Engineering

Last week, a team of computer scientists led by Dharmendra S. Modha announced what sounded like an impressive breakthrough for neuroscience-inspired computing: Using Dawn Blue Gene / P supercomputer at Lawrence Livermore National Lab with 147,456 processors and 144 TB of main memory, we achieved a simulation with 1 billion spiking neurons and 10 trillion individual learning synapses. This is equivalent...
