Antiretroviral therapy for HIV worth the price, studies show
Two new studies in this week’s issue of Science demonstrate that the scaling up of HIV antiretroviral treatments in the rural province of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, has been worth the hefty price tag.

BDNF-conjugated polymer nanoparticles relieves cauda equina constrictions
According to a study appearing in the Neural Regeneration Research (Vol. 8, No. 3, 2013), a dog model of acute multiple cauda equina constriction was established by experimental constriction injury of the lumbosacral central processes in dorsal root ganglia neurons.

Tracking brain connectivity in utero
A new study uses fMRI to watch and quantify the development of brain connections in fetuses of different ages. Many brain disorders like autism, ADHD and dyslexia are thought to arise from disrupted communication in brain networks.

Curvature range measurements of the arcuate fasciculus using DTT
Because Broca’s area and Wernicke’s area in the brain are connected by the arcuate fasciculus, understanding the anatomical location and morphometry of the arcuate fasciculus can help in the treatment of patients with aphasia.

Why the chloride channel blocker can suppress neuronal apoptosis?
The chloride channel has been shown to suppress apoptosis in hippocampal neurons, and its mechanism is associated with inhibition of caspase apoptotic pathway.

Association found between length of biological marker and development of respiratory infection in healthy adults
Among healthy adults who were administered a cold virus, those with shorter telomere length (a structure at the end of a chromosome) in certain cells were more likely to develop experimentally-induced upper respiratory infection than participants with longer telomeres, according to results of preliminary research published in the February 20 issue of JAMA.

How the whale got its teeth
Whales are mammals, but they don't look like the mammals living around us, as they have a triangular fluke for tail, no hind legs and no body hair. And inside their mouths, their teeth are unfamiliar too – being much simpler and 'peg like'. A multidisciplinary team of researchers have now married together the fossil record and the embryonic development process to investigate how the whale got its teeth.

Arcuate nucleus: A key to regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone
Kisspeptin is essential for activation of the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis. Numerous studies have confirmed that kisspeptin administration stimulates gonadotropin-releasing hormone or luteinizing hormone secretion in various species including mice, rats, sheep, monkeys and humans.

Exploring resistance to antimalarial drugs
To combat emerging resistance to antimalarial drugs, researchers need to better understand how the compounds affect malaria parasites at different stages of their life cycles, according to a study. Researchers have recently begun to document increasing resistance to artemisinin-based antimalarial compounds (ARTs), widely used against a disease that affects 300-500 million people every year.

Grasslands declining in the Western Corn Belt
A study finds that grasslands in the north-central U.S. are rapidly converting into cropland. High corn and soy commodity prices, driven by the demand for biofuels, have created incentives for landowners to convert grassland to cropland for corn and soy.

Evidence for a female protective effect against inherited autistic behaviors
A study suggests that autistic behavioral impairments may be less common in females than males because females require a greater number of familial risk factors to show the same degree of autistic behavioral impairment. Elise Robinson and colleagues investigated the extent to which the preponderance of autistic impairments in males might be explained by a female protective effect.

A potential link between smoking and cystic fibrosis
Certain lung-related clinical symptoms in cigarette smokers might be due to defects in the function of a protein implicated in cystic fibrosis, according to a study. Many smokers suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, an array of conditions similar to cystic fibrosis, caused by the defective function of an ion-transporting protein called cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in the airways of the lungs

Bats may adjust their echolocating calls to compete with ambient noise
A study reveals how echolocating bats alter the amplitude and frequency of their calls to communicate over the din of a bustling environment. Birds, humans, and other mammals instinctively raise their voices to compete with background noise—a phenomenon known as the Lombard effect—but the specific auditory changes that accompany this effect in animals remain unclear.

Selective cerebral deep hypothermia and BFO can enhance tolerance to ischemia and hypoxia
Excitotoxicity induced by the release of a large amount of excitatory amino acids after cerebral ischemia is the major mechanism underlying ischemic brain injury and nerve cell death, which can be suppressed by hypothermia.
