Overview of molecular signatures of senescence and associated resources: pros and cons

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cells can enter a stress response state termed cellular senescence that is involved in various diseases and aging. Detecting these cells is challenging due to the lack of universal biomarkers. This review presents the current state of senescence identification, from biomarkers to molecular signatures, compares tools and approaches, and highlights ...

The Associations Between Chronic Active Lesions and White Matter Disease: A 7 Tesla Imaging Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The relationship between paramagnetic rim lesions (PRLs) and surrounding normally appearing white matter (NAWM) disease, potentially contributory to the associations seen between PRLs and clinical impairment, is underexplored. Objectives To assess whether PRLs correlate with a greater degree of NAWM injury in early MS.
