NADPH increase in mitosis in aneuploid tumour cells protects against genomic aberrations
'Using a high throughput compatible assay that measures real-time translocation of the glucose transporter glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), we identified small molecules that potentiate insulin action. In vivo, these insulin sensitizers improve insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation, glucose tolerance, and glucose uptake in a model of IR'

Quite possibly the most telling opening to a news article I’ve seen recently…
“Sitting onstage in front of a crowd of 2,000 evangelical Christians, Gov. Kim Reynolds signed a law Friday immediately banning the vast majority of abortions in Iowa.”
Mind you, these are people would be horrified if they were forced to live under Muslim or Jewish theocratic law (and would call it an affront to the constitution.). I cannot emphasize how much I despise these people.
Italy has put 15 cities on red alert for high temperatures, as a severe heatwave continues across much of southern Europe.
The European Space Agency, whose satellites monitor land and sea temperatures, has warned that parts of Italy could experience the highest temperatures ever recorded on the continent.
Sicily and Sardinia could see temperatures climb as high as 49 degrees Celsius.

If you’re a journalist writing another story on why RFK Jr isn’t getting enough press coverage then I need you to get up, find a brick wall, and walk into it at full speed.
'Some critics remembered how the singer, commonly known as Elis, had been a staunch opponent of Brazil’s 1964-85 military dictatorship – a regime Volkswagen notoriously collaborated with.'
'Without an improvement in MMR vaccination rates, the capital could experience an outbreak of between 40,000 and 160,0000 cases, fresh analysis by the UKHSA suggests. Experts said an outbreak of this scale could lead to dozens of deaths and thousands of people hospitalised.'
Staking out a horrifically extreme position that would pointlessly endanger lives, former Vice President Mike Pence says abortions should be banned even for pregnancies that aren’t viable.
