The impact of Hnrnpl deficiency on transcriptional patterns of developing muscle cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We performed nanopore whole‐transcriptome sequencing comparing RNA from Hnrnpl‐knockdown versus control C2C12 myoblasts to investigate the contributions of Hnrnpl to muscle development. Our results indicate that Hnrnpl regulates the expression of genes involved with Notch signaling and skeletal muscle, particularly splicing patterns of specific muscle ...

Environmental Contaminants and Congenital Heart Defects: A Re-Evaluation of the Evidence

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2018
Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are a common birth defect of largely unknown etiology, with high fetal and neonatal mortality. A review of CHDs and environmental contaminant exposure found that meta-analyses showed only modest associations for smoking ...

Biomimetic, Suturable, and Extensible Electrospun Scaffolds for Lower Urinary Tract Surgical Reconstruction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Biomimetic, suturable, biodegradable fibrous scaffolds are engineered to mimic the tensile properties of LUT tissue using photocrosslinked 5:5% weight per volume elastin‐like peptide and methacrylated gelatin (5E5G). In vitro, urothelium, smooth muscle, and fibroblast 7 day cytocompatibility is demonstrated.

Quality of life in children with infrequent congenital heart defects: cohort study with one-year of follow-up

Health and Quality of Life Outcomes, 2020
Background The evidence regarding patient related outcomes in children with infrequent congenital heart defects (I-CHD) is very limited. We sought to measure quality of life (QoL) in children with I-CHD, and secondarily, to describe QoL changes after one-

An Opto‐Bio‐Hydrodynamic Platform for Instructing Cardiac Left‐Right Asymmetry Development

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By establishing mechanistic links among optically tuned ciliary dynamics, flow‐mediated signaling, and organ asymmetry, a multifunctional Opto‐Bio‐Hydrodynamic platform is developed to modulate ciliary motion with the programmable near infrared light for instructing cardiac left‐right asymmetry development in a spatiotemporally controlled manner, which
