- Abstract
Reports on various developments in the scientific community as of April 29, 2004. Discovery by Phillip M. Rendle and colleagues of a way to tether a protease to the cell walls of Actinomyces naeslundii bacteria so that the enzyme can break down proteins that the bacteria use to invade their host; Information on the study which shows that proteins RhoA and ROCK are part of a cellular signalling pathway that controls the development of stem cells into osteoblasts or adipocytes; Attempt by Christian Keysers and colleagues to understand the neural mechanisms involved in the relativity of reactions toward seeing a spider crawl across someone else's hand.
