The Aging Blood: Cellular Origins, Circulating Drivers, and Therapeutic Potential

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
As a conduit linking all organs, the blood system both reflects and actively drives systemic aging. This review highlights how circulating pro‐aging and antiaging factors and age‐associated hematopoietic stem cell dysfunction contribute to immunosenescence and multi‐organ decline, positioning the hematopoietic system as a target for aging intervention.

Way Back Home - An Auxiliary Teaching Tools in Biology Education in Colleges

Journal of Education, Humanities and Social Sciences, 2022
In undergraduate biology education, especially in cell biology, it has been a challenge for students to integrate images well to memorize the complex and scattered expertise. In traditional biology teaching, the teacher's way of explaining with images is not good enough to show the connection between cell structure and function directly.

Frailty Exacerbates Disability in Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To evaluate frailty in severe progressive multiple sclerosis (PMS) and to investigate the underlying mechanisms. Methods This prospective, cross‐sectional, multicenter study enrolled a late severe PMS group requiring skilled nursing (n = 53) and an age, sex, and disease duration‐matched control PMS group (n = 53).

Folding@Home and Genome@Home: Using distributed computing to tackle previously intractable problems in computational biology

, 2009
For decades, researchers have been applying computer simulation to address problems in biology. However, many of these "grand challenges" in computational biology, such as simulating how proteins fold, remained unsolved due to their great complexity. Indeed, even to simulate the fastest folding protein would require decades on the fastest modern CPUs ...

Hospital Readmission After Traumatic Brain Injury Hospitalization in Community‐Dwelling Older Adults

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the risk of hospital readmission after an index hospitalization for TBI in older adults. Methods Using data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study, we used propensity score matching of individuals with an index TBI‐related hospitalization to individuals with (1) non‐TBI hospitalizations (primary analysis)

Building a Community, Supporting Biology, and Finding a Home

The American Biology Teacher, 2017
Welcome to the new academic year! I hope you had an enjoyable summer and are looking forward to attending the NABT Professional Development Conference in St. Louis this November. In anticipation of this upcoming event, I began to reflect on the importance of community and the role it plays both personally and professionally.

Remote Assessment of Ataxia Severity in SCA3 Across Multiple Centers and Time Points

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a genetically defined ataxia. The Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) is a clinician‐reported outcome that measures ataxia severity at a single time point. In its standard application, SARA fails to capture short‐term fluctuations, limiting its sensitivity in trials.

Germline Cas9 expression yields highly efficient genome engineering in a major worldwide disease vector, Aedes aegypti. [PDF]

, 2017
The development of CRISPR/Cas9 technologies has dramatically increased the accessibility and efficiency of genome editing in many organisms. In general, in vivo germline expression of Cas9 results in substantially higher activity than embryonic injection.
