Long pepper compound may aid in treatment of colon cancer: NIT Rourkela

A natural compound found in long pepper can be an effective and cost-efficient agent against colon cancer cells, said researchers at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Rourkela on Tuesday. Colon cancer is a disease in which the cells grow uncontrollably in the large intestine of the body, forming a tumour. It is one of the most common types of cancer globally. According to the World Health Organization, in 2022, nearly 1.9 million new cases and almost 900,000 deaths occurred due to colon cancer. While various international cancer research studies have examined natural molecules’ activity towards a variety of cancers, the team at NIT Rourkela conducted a set of laboratory experiments to demonstrate the activity of Piperlongumine -- a natural compound -- as an alternative to chemo...

9 Alberta government MLAs are facing recall efforts. What’s going on?

A growing number of recall efforts against sitting MLAs in Alberta is raising pressure on Premier Danielle Smith’s United Conservative Party. Elections Alberta on Monday approved recall petitions for six more UCP caucus members, bringing the total number of MLAs facing potential removal to nine.The group includes members of Smith’s cabinet and the Speaker of the Alberta legislature.Although the petitioners face an uphill battle to successfully get the MLAs removed from office, the fact it’s happening at this volume speaks to the populist groundswell in Alberta and around the world, political experts say, combined with anger at Smith’s government in particular.It may also make other jurisdictions think twice about following in the footsteps of Alberta and B.C., which are the only two provin...

Who is Steve Outhouse, Pierre Poilievre’s new campaign manager? – National

Pierre Poilievre has tapped a veteran Conservative campaigner to help steer the party through the next federal election. Steve Outhouse, an affable Nova Scotian with deep roots in the federal Conservatives as well as provincial Tory parties, will serve as Poilievre’s campaign manager in the next federal campaign. It will be Outhouse’s first time running the national campaign.Outhouse replaces Jenni Byrne, who publicly announced in August she would not continue in the role after last April’s election loss. Byrne told Global News Monday that she will remain as an adviser to both Poilievre and the party, and that she has spoken to Outhouse.He joins Poilievre’s team at an interesting time for the party — still polling near 40 per cent support, but lagging behind the Liberals. Poilievre has als...

Amoebae from Mumbai creek harbour bacteria with high AMR risk

Free-living amoebae in Vashi Creek, a tidal estuary in Mumbai, were found to harbour bacteria which had far higher levels of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), according to a global study, including researchers from the Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay. The study, conducted by researchers at the University of Strathclyde in Scotland, noted that the amoebae are acting as a ‘Trojan horse’ harbouring and protecting multidrug-resistant bacteria. Nearly half of the bacteria in the amoeba were resistant to four or more antibiotics, rising to six or more in 22 per cent of the samples. In marked contrast, the same level of resistance was found in only 0.6 per cent of samples derived from the sediment. While they are normally predators of bacteria, amoebae could serve as “sentinel indicators” ...

Priyanka Chopra says Born Hungry is about the human cause behind ambition

Global star Priyanka Chopra feels that stories like Born Hungry serve as a reminder that ambition and compassion don’t have to be at odds with each other in a world obsessed with speed and success. She was asked whether stories like Born Hungry remind audiences of the human cause behind ambition and achievement. Priyanka told IANS: “I don`t think they`re mutually exclusive. Ambition and achievement can happen along with a balanced life and without human sacrifice. There is a balance to be found, and that’s what we all need to strive for.” Explaining further, Priyanka spoke about why purpose matters, but not at the cost of one’s well-being. “I think it`s really, really important to have a sense of ambition, a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose for every human being — whatever that...

It’s unacceptable B.C. has been cut out of pipeline talks, Premier Eby tells Mark Carney

For a project he says “doesn’t actually exist,” there was a lot British Columbia Premier David Eby had to say about a potential pipeline from Alberta to B.C.’s northern coast, in a phone call with Prime Minister Mark Carney on Monday. There should be a ban on public spending on the project, he said. Or a cap. Or, if it goes ahead with taxpayer money, then B.C. should also get a “$50-billion federally funded project.”Eby also said he told Carney “how unacceptable” it was for Alberta and Saskatchewan to talk with the federal government about the proposal without input from his province.“This is not something that would happen to Quebec,” Eby said Monday at an unrelated news conference in Victoria.“This is not something that would happen to other provinces in the federation. I don’t know why ...
