Contagious cancers



The almond-shaped lump on Brian Hill's throat didn't make sense to him. The doctor said it was a symptom of advanced oral cancer, but Hill had never smoked a cigarette or chewed a plug of tobacco, considered the main causes of the disease when he was diagnosed in 1997. So why was it there?

• Clavicipitaceous Anamorphic Endophytes in Hordeum germplasm
The incidence of clavicipitaceous anamorphic endophytes, non-choke inducing endosymbiotic fungi of the genus Neotyphodium that systemically infect grasses, in eighteen Hordeum species from the U.S. National Plant Germplasm System was examined using light and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Seventeen plant inventory accessions from only three Hordeum species, including H. bogdanii, H. brevisubulatum subsp. violaceum and H. comosum, were found to contain significant levels of seed and seedling infection ranging from 18-99%. Neotyphodium-endophytes were found in Hordeum germplasm from one country (Argentina) in South America and four countries (Afghanistan, China, Iran and Kazakhstan) in Asia. The viability of endophytic mycelium in seeds was confirmed by culturing these fungi on potato dextrose agar medium from aleurone tissue of seeds and by direct observations of hyphae in leaf sheaths of 3-4 week-old seedlings. Morphological characteristics of these fungi were further characterized using SEM to determine similarities and differences in conidiophores and conidia produced in culture. The importance, significance and potential benefits of Neotyphodium-endophytes from wild Hordeum as sources of insect resistance in cultivated barley, other cereal grasses and in wild grasses included in the Conservation Reserve Program are discussed. Suggested strategies for the proper maintenance of this valuable germplasm also are elucidated.

• Wistar scientists find key to keeping killer T cells in prime shape for fighting infection, cancer
Like tuning a violin to produce strong, elegant notes, researchers at The Wistar Institute have found multiple receptors on the outside of the body's killer immune system cells which they believe can be selectively targeted to keep the cells in superb infection- and disease-fighting condition. In a study published online November 30 in Nature Immunology , the researchers describe their di...

"[Greene] develops one fresh new insight after another...In the great tradition of physicists writing for the masses, The Elegant Universe sets a standard that will be hard to beat." --George Johnson, The New York Times Book Review

In a rare blend of scientific insight and writing as elegant as the theories it explains, Brian Greene, one of the world's leading string theorists, peels away the layers of mystery surrounding string theory to reveal a universe that consists of 11 dimensions where the fabric of space tears and repairs itself, and all matter-from the smallest quarks to the most gargantuan supernovas-is generated by the vibrations of microscopically tiny loops of energy.

Green uses everything from an amusement park ride to ants on a garden hose to illustrate the beautiful yet bizarre realities that modern physics is unveiling.    Dazzling in its brilliance, unprecedented in its ability to both illuminate and entertain, The Elegant Universe is a tour de force of science writing-a delightful, lucid voyage through modern physics that brings us closer than ever to understanding how the universe works.
