OncotargetBlog: Whole-Genome Doubling and Aneuploidy in Human CancerWhole-genome doubling (WGD) and aneuploidy are two common genomic alterations that occur in human cancers. WGD is a macro-evolutionary event that results in the duplication of the entire genome, while aneuploidy is a micro-evolutionary event that results in the gain or loss of individual chromosomes or chromosome arms. Both WGD and aneuploidy can have profound effects on cellular physiology, gene expression and genome stability, and are associated with tumor initiation, progression and drug resistance.
However, the relationship between WGD and aneuploidy is complex and context-dependent. In a new editorial paper, researchers Kavya Prasad and Uri Ben-David from Tel Aviv University...

Aging-USNew Hyperbaric Oxygen (HBOT) Study Breaks GroundCompounding evidence from experimental, epidemiological and clinical studies indicate that cerebral amyloid plaque formation, vascular dysfunction and reduced cerebral blood flow (CBF) all play important roles in the cognitive decline associated with aging and aging-related diseases. Recently, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) was shown to improve cognitive performance in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and in human patients. However, previous research has not directly shown how, or if, HBOT mitigates cerebrovascular dysfunction in AD.
“Therefore, we investigated the effects of HBOT on CBF and cognitive decline in the 5XFAD mouse model of AD that presents aggressive accumulation of amyloid load...

New Books in Israel StudiesThe Small Literary Press: An Interview with Nana Ariel and Uri Yoeli of Home Press (Israel)Home Press is a tiny local publishing house and press in Tel Aviv Jaffa. Uri Yoeli and Nana Ariel, a couple, established it in their apartment in 2019. The Home Press booklets are thin, hand-sewn with needle and thread, printed in small, numbered editions, and as opposed to bibliophilic books - cheaply produced and sold. They vary from prose and poetry to history and artist books. Home Press is an independent venture, inspired by the history of self publishing, but not nostalgic. It is a local, ecological home for books, largely detached from the book market, fueled by love for w...

DevilrySeeing is Believing Part 2(of 2)The year was 1971, Puharich had been studying Extrasensory perception now for around twenty years, and when he heard of Uri Geller, he took the first flight he could to see for himself, the man who could predict the future and move matter with his mind. When he went to that night club in Tel Aviv he was not sure what to expect, but his hopes were high. And Uri did not disappoint. Coming on stage, he announced his first demonstration would be what he called “eyeless sight”.

Last week, it was the Falafel Index, which compares salaries to falafel costs across the Middle East. Israeli falafel is the most expensive there is. In January the Knesset released a study finding that food prices here are 25 percent higher than in the EU, especially for milk, cheese, and eggs. And in September, the OECD found that Israeli farm produce is 11 percent more expensive than the OECD average. The high cost of food is nothing new in...

In fact, it has been a designated civic space since before it was designed by architect Avraham Yaski in 1964, and even before the establishment of the State of Israel.
