Prominent Canadian researcher loses libel case against documentary makers.

A formerly renowned researcher in the field of nutrition and immunology has lost his court bid to win damages from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation over a 2006 documentary. The programme alleged that Ranjit Kumar Chandra never conducted published studies into the immune benefits of baby formula and other studies that found a protective effect of multivitamins on cognition and infection in ...

Newly Discovered Active Binaries in the Rastyc Sample of Stellar X-ray Sources

We present preliminary results of follow-up optical observations, both photometric and spectroscopic, of stellar X-ray sources, selected from the cross-correlation of ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) and TYCHO catalogues. Spectra were acquired with the Elodie spectrograph at the 193-cm telescope of the Haute Provence Observatory (OHP) and with the REOSC echelle spectrograph at the 91-cm telescope of...

Newly discovered myokines in chronic kidney disease.

Newly discovered antiterminator RNAs in bacteriophage.

Antiterminator RNA directly modifies the transcription elongation complex so that it terminates less efficiently at intrinsic and factor-dependent terminators. These unusual RNAs were first discovered in bacteriophage HK022, where the nascent transcripts of the phage put sites promote full expression of phage genes during lytic infection. The activity of antiterminator RNA depends on specific s...
