Mice regain ability to extend telomeres suggesting potential for dyskeratosis congenita therapy
(The Company of Biologists) A new study published in disease Models and Mechanisms, reveals that mice used as a model for the human genetic disease dyskeratosis congenita, have short telomeres for 10 generations when they are interbred. In later generations, the mice regain the ability to lengthen telomeres. Discovering how to induce this equilibration process in DKC patients could suggest new treatment strategies to decrease the genomic instability in their high turnover tissues.

Looking to achieve balance? Try slacklining
Proponents call the sport, in which participants maneuver across a flat strip of nylon just a few feet above the ground, a good core exercise and a stress-reliever -- like tai chi on a tightrope. Standing on a swaying length of flat nylon slung like a tightrope, my knees shake as I try desperately not to fall. But every time I take a tentative step, I lose my balance. Fortunately for me, this isn't a circus act performed several stories up; I'm slacklining -- and the ground is a mere 12 inches away.

Teeth grinders get some help
Store-bought guards for teeth gnashing can help, but fitted ones from dentists are best. Sure, snorers can be loud. But for really cringe-worthy nighttime noise, it's hard to beat a dedicated grinder. With jaw muscles clenched tight -- perhaps because of stress or misaligned teeth -- a grinder can create a crunching sound reminiscent of two icebergs passing in the night. Some people grind with a force of nearly 1,000 pounds per square inch, enough to crack teeth and obliterate fillings.
