Scientists consider stem cell research and stem cell therapy as having a positive impact on treating different forms of cancer. While embryonic stem cell research is extremely controversial, stem cells used in cancer treatment such as leukemia are different. Unlike embryonic stem cells that use an embryo for regeneration of healthy cells, the cells used in leukemia treatment are called hematopoietic stem cells. The use of stem cell therapy has increased the survival rate of leukemia patients…

The idea of taking stem cells and using them to create more stem cells is hardly new. With the experiments dating back to the 1950s, new breakthroughs are making it a viable option for these stem cells to be used to find cures for cancer, and help heal heart, brain, and spinal injuries that otherwise would have been debilitating or fatal. The controversial question that has arose from this research is whether or not it is ethical to kill an embryo to harvest these stem cells. The answer is no.…

cruel and mortifying to some that one would kill a helpless baby and destroy the life of an innocent for the purpose of curing others. However, research has shown that embryonic stem cells can potentially cure Alzheimer’s, spinal injuries and find a long term treatment for diabetes- some of the most common conditions in the UK. Without a doubt we have all been affected, in one way or another, by these agonising and catastrophic diseases. Can you imagine a world in which these cease to exist? I…

Section 1: Definitions & Short Questions 1.1 Fibers can be divided into 2 main categories: Manufactured fibers (Synthetic fibers and Regenerated fibers) and Natural fibers, but a fiber has still the same composition in both: A fiber is a material that is hair-like, longer than it is wide and fibers can be identified by their flexibility and being able to be spun into yarn or made into fabrics. 1.2 Staple fibers can be defined as natural fibers that can be twisted to form properties of yarn.…

Hypothalamic programming of systemic ageing involving IKK-b, NF-kB and GnRH (Zhang et al., 2013). Cellular senescence is when a cell’s replicative mechanism becomes arrested. This was phenomenon was first described in Hayflick’s experiment. Cellular senescence is usually due to protect the cell from becoming cancerous but it also plays a prominent role in aging (van Deursen, 2014). While senescence describes a halt in proliferation, cancer development is the uncontrolled proliferation of…

Destruction; the action or process of causing so much damage to something that it no longer exists or cannot be repaired. Destruction is overtaking the lives of innocent people by inhuman acts. The majority of people in today’s worldly society are suffering from laws that seize to exist. Their needs to be a change in the acts of gruesome people, and if I had a chance to create three rules, it would benefit everybody. I would stop pregnant women from smoking, unite North and South Korea and…

On the 16th day of November, I had left the comforts of my hometown of Denver to begin the journey to South Korea. In this journey I was fortunate to learn and study about the Korean criminal justice system and the strong culture they value. After a long 16 hour flight I had finally arrived in Incheon Korea. After waiting for the bus, and the check in at the hotel I was ready to explore Korea until my classmate arrived. When the whole class arrived the following day, I was eager to get out and…

Canadian poet, Raymond Souster, explores the thematic implications of the individual’s urban experience, representing the Canadian city center as a place of isolating corruption that maps an unchanging Toronto. Drawing on the modernist impulse to criticize the industrialization of society, Souster moves away from the Canadian tradition of writing naturalistic visions into the sphere of the cityscape. In his poems, “Robinson Street”, and “The Coldest Winter”, Souster uses images of isolated…

I argue that not only should Division I football players create a labour union, but that by doing so will provide many positive outcomes and possibilities to the players themselves. I believe that by forming a labour union, the players would finally get power, profits and their voices…

Kaempferol is a natural polyphenol, secondary metabolite (flavonol), a type of flavonoid, found in a variety of plant-derived foods. Kaempferol is a yellow crystalline solid with a melting point of 276–278 °C. It is slightly soluble in water and highly soluble in hot ethanol, ethers, and DMSO. Kaempferol acts as an antioxidant by reducing oxidative stress. Many studies suggest that consuming kaempferol may reduce the risk of various cancers, and it is currently under consideration as a possible…
