Rhythmic glucose metabolism regulates the redox circadian clockwork in human red blood cells

January 21, 2021
Ch, R., Rey, G., Ray, S. et al. Rhythmic glucose metabolism regulates the redox circadian clockwork in human red blood cells. Nat Commun 12, 377 (2021). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-20479-4 Abstract Circadian clocks coordinate mammalian behavior and physiology enabling organisms to anticipate 24-hour cycles. Transcription-translation feedback loops are thought to drive these clocks in most of mammalian cells. However, red blood cells (RBCs),...

Life Saving Therapy Inhibition by Phones Containing Magnets

January 18, 2021
Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) remains the cornerstone therapy in the management of malignant ventricular arrythmia’s for patients with high risk cardiac conditions. An ICD system contains a battery, capacitors, sensing/ pacing circuit together with an intra-or extra-cardiac lead. All ICD’s have an in-built switch (Reed switch, Hall-effect sensors, Giant magneto sensitive resistors or coils) which...
