1. Varying weight training intensity increases growth hormone in women
   12-01-2006 · EurekAlert!
   Women who undertake a long-term weight training program produce more biologically active growth hormone, a finding that allows physiologists to understand why weight training improves muscle tone and optimizes metabolic function. The study found that growth hormone was responsive to moderate and heavy exercise regimens having 3-12 repetitions with varying weight loading, suggesting women need to have heavy loading cycle or workout in their resistance training routines, as it helps to build muscle and bone.

2. Alien predators are more dangerous than native predators
   03-13-2007 · EurekAlert!
   Introduced predators such as foxes and cats are twice as deadly as native predators to Australia’s unique native animals, says new research. The finding, published this week in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, is the first confirmation of what has been a long-held hypothesis among scientists. It also highlights the heavy continuing impact of these predators long after their introduction and that Australia's fauna has been among the hardest hit in the world.

3. Study finds reduced brain growth in alcoholics with family drinking history
   02-21-2007 · EurekAlert!
   Previous studies have shown that alcoholics have smaller brain volumes than non-alcoholics, an effect widely believed to be due to the toxic effects of ethanol. In this study, researchers found reduced brain growth among alcohol-dependent individuals with a family history of alcoholism or heavy drinking compared to those with no such family history. The finding demonstrates that reduced brain growth occurs among these individuals even before the onset of alcohol dependence.

7. Signal protein shows promise for blocking tumor promoters in skin cells
   11-03-2006 · EurekAlert!
   A protein with the ironic name "Srcasm" can counteract the effects of tumor-promoting molecules in skin cells. Using animal models, the researchers discovered that Srcasm acts like a brake in epithelial cells, preventing uncontrolled cell growth caused by a family of proteins called Src kinases. This finding, published online in the Journal of Biological Chemistry, suggests a target for future gene therapy to treat skin, head, neck, colon and breast cancers.
