Thousands of sites potentially contaminated with toxic chemicals in Britain have never been checked by councils, a BBC investigation has found. Nine out of 10 “high-risk” areas have not been tested by councils responding to a BBC Freedom of Information request and scientists fear they could pose a health risk as they are thought to contain substances such as lead or arsenic.

The wife of a man who waited more than 14 hours for an ambulance which never showed up has said it was "not fair" he "had to die in that state". Peter Towndrow fell ill on the night of 4 December, but despite his wife Caroline calling an ambulance at 06:00 GMT the next day, he did not get to hospital until his son drove him in at 21:00. His condition deteriorated in hospital and he died on 7 December after eventually being diagnosed with sepsis.

More testing is needed in UK metal mine hotspots to see if there is a risk to public health, a leading expert says. An inquiry session into the potential human health risks of pollution from abandoned metal mines in Wales takes place on Wednesday. The north of Ceredigion is home to more than 400 of Wales’ 1,300 abandoned metal mines and its three rivers of the Ystwyth, Rheidol and the Clarach are some of the most heavily polluted in the UK.

AbstractCellular cargos move bidirectionally on microtubules due to the presence of opposite polarity motors dynein and kinesin. Many studies show these motors are co-dependent, whereby one requires the activity of the other, although the mechanism is unknown. Here, using in vitro motility assays, we show that the kinesin-3 KIF1C acts both as an activator and a processivity factor for dynein.
