HORMONES AND AGEING:
Ageing can be viewed as a variable process resulting from a
disorderliness of regulatory mechanisms that results in reduced
robustness of the organism to intercurrent stress and disease. There is
the erosion of the orderly neuroendocrine feedback regulation of the
secretion of LH, FSH, ACTH, and GH. These changes are manifested as
menopause, andropause, adrenopause, and somatopause. The ageing related
disruption of metabolic processes is associated with a higher prevalence
of diseases such as type 2 diabetes and cancer in older individuals.
Currently, it seems fashionable to undermine the role of growth hormone,
as was to earlier to highlight it.There is a need for balanced view
based on different studies
rather than confusion arising out of individual studies and papers.science.qj.net/Growth-hormone-is-NOT-the-solution-to-youth/pg/49/aid/79852

The Scientist : C. elegans role in
understanding genetics30-Oct-2007
C. elegans provides an ideal an attractive model for genetic and
biochemical experimentation. Nothing wrong to say that C. elegans is
micro-guinea pig for the modern day biological experimentation. It is a
multi-cellular animal, yet small, ~ 1mm in length, and transparent
throughout its life. It is easy to generate mutations in C. elegans. It
is known that most of the endocrine signaling and genetic pathways
identified in C. elegans persist with evolution in the more complex
organisms including human-being. This article provides an insight into
the complexity of genome of this simple multi-cellular organism. A
passing interest in science in general and genetics in particular is one
thing, but a concrete effort of several years to identify the basics is
really commendable.

Good afternoon!
We would like your permission to print your letter in our January issue.

A
savior for science?
>Many recent articles in newspapers, tabloids and web posts can easily
be dubbed as “Expectations from Obama” – including your recent news
article, “Obama good
for science, experts say” (1). Man, he has aroused so many expectations
from us! There is so much to be done in so many spheres. But having so
many expectations is not fair. In the difficult times we live now, we
are trying hard to find a savior. What if Barack Obama is not our
savior?

>The "two
heart attacks" should definitely point to a serious side effect of the
drug, especially in a person with no history of heart disease. What is
more disturbing is that the person in question was in good health to
participate in the drug trial and did so only to clear his debts. This
only means that his participation in the trial was not fully voluntary.
This may also mean that information about his health statusmbefore
entering the trial might not have been "good health." We should stop
labeling the outcome to "an unpredictable biological action" of the drug
every time.
