 MicroRNAs regulate cancer stem cells

 U.S. and Chinese researchers say they've discovered a key
 molecular switch belonging to a class of molecules called
 microRNAs that regulate cancer stem cells. A report, published
 in the journal Cell, said the microRNAs push the stem cells
 to become more differentiated and less tumorigenic through
 their ability to switch off particular genes. "People know
 that microRNAs are important regulators of cell differentiation,
 but nobody has shown that they regulate the critical properties
 of cancer stem cells, or any kind of stem cells," Judy
 Lieberman -- an investigator at the Immune Disease Institute
 and Harvard Medical School professor of pediatrics at Children's
 Hospital Boston -- said Thursday in a release. The report said
 the findings suggest a novel way to target these cells to treat
 cancer with therapeutic RNAs, which are a new class of medicine
 under development for many diseases.

 Dust from China routinely appears in U.S.

 A U.S. researcher says dust from deserts in China and Mongolia
 is adding to the mix of air pollution in the United States.
 Emily Fischer, a University of Washington doctoral student in
 atmospheric sciences, said dust from the Gobi and Taklimakan
 deserts is routinely present in the air over the western United
 States during spring months. "We are interested in Asian dust
 that comes across the Pacific because particles can have an
 impact on health, as well as on visibility," Fischer said
 Thursday in a news release. Fischer found that in years with
 large Asian dust storms there was an increase in particles of
 2.5 microns or less in the air over the western United States.
 Particles that small can be inhaled more deeply into the lungs
 and so are a greater health concern. The research is being
 presented this week at the annual meeting of the American
 Geophysical Union in San Francisco. "The transport of dust
 across the Pacific is not a new phenomenon," Fischer said.
 "But we are just beginning to understand it and quantify it
 on a year-to-year basis instead of on a case-by-case basis.

 New dating service offers DNA matching

 A new on-line dating service available in the Boston area
 promises to find customers matches with good chemistry by
 testing their DNA. ScientificMatch.com founder Eric Holzle
 believes that couples with opposite immune systems have a
 better chance of producing healthy babies. "This is going to
 revolutionize the entire dating industry," Holzle told ABC
 News. "We're providing the most perfect dating service that
 you're going to get, the best of both worlds." ScientifcMatch
 has other features that Holzle believes will bring in customers
 to pay the $1,995 fee. The service promises stringent background
 checks while customer profiles will not be censored. Scientists
 say that Holzle's premise that babies will be more robust if
 their parents have opposite genes is unproven. James Evans,
 head of the adult genetics institute at the University of North
 Carolina, said that so many factors go into a child's health
 that teasing out the effect of genetics is still difficult.
 But Holzle believes he is offering something the public wants.
 "Everyone advertises chemistry -- we're the only one that
 offers it," he said.
