The needed solution depends of what you want to achieve. Just removing it from display could be done via a php global variable, css and jQuery. Just removing it would still leave it accessible. Completely denying the access to a user is bit more complicated. – kaiser Jan 8 '12 at 5:43

You can use the remove_submenu_page function (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/remove_submenu_page)

add_action( 'admin_init', 'wpse_38111' );
function wpse_38111() {
    remove_submenu_page( 'index.php', 'update-core.php' );
}
