Tuberculosis Induces Premature Cellular Aging

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, life extension

Tuberculosis (TB) is a potentially serious infectious disease caused by a type of bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The bacteria usually affect the lungs, but also can invade other organs.

In 2018, tuberculosis bacteria infected 1.7 billion people โ€” roughly 23% of the worldโ€™s population, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In 2020, the CDC reported 7,174 TB cases and 13 million people living with a latent tuberculosis infection (the germs are in the body but do not cause sickness) in the United States.

Even after successful therapy for tuberculosis, survivors of the disease have an increased risk of recurrent infection and death. A new study published recently by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine found that the cells of humans and animals who have recovered from tuberculosis had prematurely aged up to 12 to 14 years.

Mind-Body Philosophy | Solving the Hard Problem of Consciousness with Patrick Grim

Posted by in categories: alien life, nanotechnology, robotics/AI

Mind-body philosophy | solving the hard problem of consciousness.

Recent advances in science and technology have allowed us to reveal โ€” and in some cases even alter โ€” the innermost workings of the human body. With electron microscopes, we can see our DNA, the source code of life itself. With nanobots, we can send cameras throughout our bodies and deliver drugs directly into the areas where they are most needed. We are even using artificially intelligent robots to perform surgeries on ourselves with unprecedented precision and accuracy.

Neuro-symbolic AI brings us closer to machines with common sense

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

H/T Ben Dickson.

Artificial intelligence research has made great achievements in solving specific applications, but weโ€™re still far from the kind of general-purpose AI systems that scientists have been dreaming of for decades.

Among the solutions being explored to overcome the barriers of AI is the idea of neuro-symbolic systems that bring together the best of different branches of computer science. In a talk at the IBM Neuro-Symbolic AI Workshop, Joshua Tenenbaum, professor of computational cognitive science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, explained how neuro-symbolic systems can help to address some of the key problems of current AI systems.

Targeting the cell cycle could overcome cancer treatment resistance

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, genetics

Scientists from Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center have shed light on a different way of overcoming mechanisms of resistance to specific therapeutic agents used to treat cancer. In a new article published March 1 in the journal Cell Reports, the researchers propose a new approach to cancer treatment based on the way different cancer cells divide.

A collaborative team led by Agnieszka Witkiewicz, MD, Professor of Oncology, and Erik Knudsen, Ph.D., Professor of Oncology and Chair of Molecular and Cellular Biology, from Roswell Park investigated over 500 from a multitude of cancer types, as well as preclinical tumor models. The researchers then analyzed based on their dependency for CDK and CCN, two genes that drive the cell cycle and determine how often a cancer cell divides.

โ€œWe found that the way cancer cells divide is highly varied, and that diversity represents a tremendous challenge for some widely used cancer therapies because it often contributes to treatment resistance,โ€ says Dr. Witkiewicz, the studyโ€™s senior author. โ€œHowever, with a better understanding of these heterogenous features of cancer cell division, different therapies could be deployed in a more precise and effective fashion.โ€
