MUSCLE CELL SECRET A muscle fiber consists of just one cell, but many nuclei. A team at the MDC led by Professor Carmen Birchmeier has now shown just how varied these nuclei are. The study, which has been published in Nature Communications , can help us better understand muscle diseases such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Usually, each cell has exactly one nucleus. But the cells of our skeletal muscles are different: These long, fibrous cells have a comparatively large cytoplasm that contains hundreds of nuclei. But up to now, we have known very little about the extent to which the nuclei of a single muscle fiber differ from each other in terms of their gene activity, and what effect this has on the function of the muscle. A team led by Professor Carmen Birchmeier, head of the research group on Developmental Biology / Signal Transduction at the Max Delbrueck Cen...
Oumuanua Suddenly Showed Up Again and Is Now Heading Towards The Earth! - Chapter 2 Ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the our blog site; De Science Discovery. Today, we shall continue on a fascinating journey that we embarked on last week into the depth of space to unravel the mysterious tale of oumuamua. Oumuamua, the first known interstellar object that visited our solar system, has intrigued scientists worldwide. In this educational article, we will explore Its peculiar characteristics, the theories surrounding its origin, and the impact it has had on our understanding of the universe. Get ready to expand your knowledge and immerse yourself in the wonders of the cosmos. Let’s begin! Mysteries surrounding oumuamua origin and composition Scientist concludes that interstellar object ‘oumuamua must be very elongated because of its dramatic variations in brightness as it tumbled through space. They also conclude that vents on the surface must have emitted jets of gases, giv...
Food contamination sometimes starts in the soil It all comes down to soil chemistry Research facility where scientists conduct rice and soil experiments. When most people hear "food contamination," they think of bacteria on unwashed fruits or vegetables or undercooked meat. However, there are other ways for harmful contaminants to get into food products. Angelia Seyfferth, a member of the Soil Science Society of America, investigates food contamination coming from the soil where the plants grow. "It all comes down to the chemistry of the soil," says Seyfferth. Seyfferth has been studying rice. The elements arsenic and cadmium can be present in the paddies where rice is grown, she found. She presented her research at the virtual 2020 ASA-CSSA-SSSA Annual Meeting. The study is funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation. Elements such as arsenic and cadmium can be present in different chemical forms depending on their environment. Contaminants are taken...
