Scientists have found a new organ in the body that no one knew about before

Scientists believe they have just discovered a new organ in the body which no one knew about before now.

A new study published On Monday, March 27 says the new organ discovered is called the interstitium. The interstitium is a network of fluid-filled tubes all around the body which could act as a shock absorber. Sadly, this organ could also act as a conduit for cancerous cells to move to different parts of the body. However, knowing about it could lead to new treatments and better understanding.

If it is indeed an organ, it could be the biggest of 80 in the human body, found under the skin and also lining veins and arteries, muscles, the gut and every visceral organ. Previously, scientists had seen it but believed it was made up of dense connective tissue. When slides were examined that’s what it looked like, because to make a slide the fluid is drained away as part of the process.

Its true nature was realised during a routine endoscopy looking at a patient’s bile duct. Doctors noticed what looked like a network of capillaries, but clearly couldn’t be that because it would have picked up the fluorescent dye they were using. Previously, we knew that there was fluid between cells (known as interstitial fluid) but it wasn’t thought to be contained in a network like this.

New York University pathologist Dr Neil Theise said: "This finding has potential to drive dramatic advances in medicine. This includes the possibility that the direct sampling of interstitial fluid may become a powerful diagnostic tool. Once tumours get in, they’re like a water slide. We have a new window on the mechanism of tumours spreading."

Shocking photos of Chris Brown engaging in very rough 'play' with a female friend

TMZ has released a couple of photos that show Chris Brown in a manner that could be interpreted wrongly. The photos taken while Chris partied on Monday with others in Miami, show him supposedly choking a lady.

Chris had his right hand around the woman's throat and although she kind of appeared distressed, they both now insist that it was just rough play. A photo taken after the drama confirmed this, as they were seen talking normally.

Speaking to clarify the wrong interpretations, Chris' lawyer, Mark Geragos, told TMZ:

"She's a friend. It's obviously playful as she confirmed.  Whoever invaded their privacy will be held accountable."

The newspaper, based on sources familiar with the investigation, also reported the people who were hit had been trying to steal the driver’s vehicle

Dino Melaye gives IG of Police, Idris Ibrahim, 48 hours to produce escapee suspects or face lawsuit

Senator Dino Melaye has given the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, 48 hours to produce the two suspects involved in the alleged gunrunning case who reportedly escaped from police detention in Kogi State today March 28th. 

Speaking on the floor of the Senate today, Dino told his colleagues that the police is being used to harrass him. He threatened to sue the Police boss for “mental assault”. 

“Mr. President the social media this morning was awash and I have made confirmation that the suspects in my case who said I gave them guns and money – there is a reported case in Lokoja that there was jail break at 5a.m. this morning and the two suspects have escaped.

We were all supposed to appear before the Lokoja high court this morning. My lawyers were in court at 9a.m. and the case was called up and the prosecutor of the Nigerian police could not produce the two persons.

Instead of producing the two persons, they asked the judge to issue a bench warrant for an arrest but the judge refused to grant their prayers and the judge said despite the fact that I have not been served, I sent representation to the court. And the main accused persons are absent in court.

So she cannot grant a bench warrant and the matter has been adjourned to May 10.

Dino said unconfirmed rumor has it that the suspects were moved from detention and that they may have been killed. He said something is very fishy about the report. 

“I want to use the opportunity and on the principle of justice to call on the Inspector-General of police that within 48 hours, he must produce these accused persons because they are presumed innocent until proven guilty; they also have right to life. So police must as a matter of urgency produce these two accused persons. Failure to do so I will sue the IG for mental assault. Nigeria is not a banana republic,” he said.
