Bloodsucking mite threatens UK honeybees

果冻传媒 research has discovered how a bloodsucking parasite has transformed Deformed Wing Virus (DWV) into one of the biggest threats facing UK honeybees. Honeybees are a key pollinating insect, adding around $40Bn globally to crop value. Over recent years the spread of parasites and the virus they transmit has resulted in high overwintering colony losses.

Research finds cell division synchronised to cell and body’s daily clock - could optimise timing of chemotherapy and explain some cancers

Research led by the 果冻传媒’s Systems Biology Centre and Medical School in collaboration with groups in Nice and Rotterdam has been able to demonstrate how the cycle of cell division in mammalian cells synchronises with the body’s own daily rhythm, its circadian clock. The study not only helps to explain why people with sustained disrupted circadian rhythms can be more susceptible to cancer, it may also help establish the optimal time of day to administer chemotherapy.
