				<![CDATA[
					Atherosclerosis, a buildup of cellular plaque in the arteries, remains  one of the leading causes of death globally. While high-density  lipoprotein, or HDL, the so-called good cholesterol, is transferred to  the liver for processing, low-density lipoprotein, or LDL, builds up in  the arteries in the form of plaque.

				<description>
				<![CDATA[
					Athens, Ga. - Bacteria and archaea are among the smallest forms of life on the planet, but don't let their size fool you. These simple creatures have persevered for billions of years, thanks in part to a recently discovered immune-like defense system that protects them from marauding infectious agents like viruses and plasmids.

				<description>
				<![CDATA[
					University of Georgia scientists have discovered a new flu-fighting role  for a well-known component of the immune system. Kimberly Klonowski,  assistant professor of cellular biology in the UGA Franklin College of  Arts and Sciences, and her colleagues found that administering a  cell-signaling protein known as IL-15 to mice infected with influenza  reduces their peak viral load by nearly three times.
