BMA GP committee warns general practice is on the "brink of collapse,"

BMA GP committee warns general practice is on the "brink of collapse" 

John Hemming says:

“Instead of £350m a week for the NHS, under the Conservatives we’ve seen the health service being gradually run into the ground.

“Patients across the country are struggling to get appointments with their GP.

“The NHS cannot take five years of a Conservative landslide that would give Theresa May free rein to cut services further at your local hospital.

“The Liberal Democrats offer a brighter future with a penny on income tax to rescue the NHS and care.”

Its the long genes that stop working

People who read my blog will be aware that I have for some time argued that most (if not all) diseases of aging are caused by cells not being able to produce enough of the right proteins. What happens is that certain genes stop functioning because of a metabolic imbalance. I was, however, mystified as to why it was always particular genes that stopped working. Recently, however, there have been three papers produced: Aging is associated with a systemic length-associated transcriptome imbalance Age- or lifestyle-induced accumulation of genotoxicity is associated with a generalized shutdown of long gene transcription and Gene Size Matters: An Analysis of Gene Length in the Human Genome From these it is obvious to see that the genes that stop working are the longer ones. To me it is therefore obvious that if there is a shortage of nuclear Acetyl-CoA then it would mean that the probability of longer Genes being transcribed would be reduced to a greater extent than shorter ones.
