Schematic depicting mechanism by which HPC protects neurons against tGCI in CA1 through Piwil2‐mediated epigenetics. Abstract Epigenetic modification contributes to the pathogenesis of cerebral ischemia. Piwil2 belongs to the PIWI proteins subfamily and has a key role in the regulation of gene transcription through epigenetics.

Optimal Surface Marker Locations for Tumor Motion Estimation in Lung Cancer Radiotherapy [PDF]
Using fiducial markers on patient's body surface to predict the tumor location is a widely used approach in lung cancer radiotherapy. The purpose of this work is to propose an algorithm that automatically identifies a sparse set of locations on the patient's surface with the optimal prediction power for the tumor motion. The sparse selection of markers

Supersulfide biology and translational medicine for disease control
Abstract For decades, the major focus of redox biology has been oxygen, the most abundant element on Earth. Molecular oxygen functions as the final electron acceptor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, contributing to energy production in aerobic organisms. In addition, oxygen‐derived reactive oxygen species including hydrogen peroxide and nitrogen

Association of ventricular–arterial coupling with heart failure (HF) biomarkers in the STANISLAS cohort. MMP, matrix metalloproteinase; NT‐proBNP, N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide. Aims Impaired left ventricular–arterial coupling (VAC) has been shown to correlate with worse prognosis in cardiac diseases and heart failure (HF).

Synchronous Ganglioneuroma and Schwannoma Mistaken for Carotid Body Tumor
Ganglioneuromas are a very rare benign neural tumor, commonly derived from the ganglia of the sympathetic system, and are composed of mature Schwann cells, ganglion cells, and nerve fibres. They may arise anywhere from the base of the skull to the pelvis
