First steps to neutralizing Zika: How highly potent antibody neutralizes Zika infection discovered

First steps to neutralizing Zika: How highly potent antibody neutralizes Zika infection discovered: As Zika spreads throughout the world, the call for rapid development of therapeutics to treat Zika rings loud and clear. Taking a step further in identifying a possible therapeutic candidate, a team of researchers has discovered the mechanism by which C10, a human antibody previously identified to react with the Dengue virus, prevents Zika infection at a cellular level.

Later start times better for high school students: Poor self-regulation in teens linked to circadian rhythms: Findings support later start times for middle schools and high schools: Chronic insufficient sleep is at epidemic levels in U.S. teens and has been associated with depression, substance use, accidents, and academic failure. Poor self-regulation or an inability to alter thinking, emotions, and behaviors to meet varying social demands is thought to be a key link between inadequate sleep in teens and poor health and school-related outcomes. However, a study has found that the number of hours teens sleep on school nights may not be the main problem.

Placebo sweet spot for pain relief identified in brain: Scientists have identified for the first time the region in the brain responsible for the 'placebo effect' in pain relief, when a fake treatment actually results in substantial reduction of pain, according to new research. Pinpointing the sweet spot of the pain killing placebo effect could result in the design of more personalized medicine for the 100 million Americans with chronic pain.
