“ALL THE POWER TO THEM”: EXPLORING PERSPECTIVES AND EXPERIENCES OF INTIMACY AND SEXUALITY AMONG OLDER LONG-TERM CARE RESIDENTS

open access: yes, 2016
The present study explored the lived realities of LTC residents to gain a better understanding of their intimate and sexual needs. A qualitative descriptive approach gave voice to the experiences of ten residents in a LTC facility in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Compact 9dBEs Enable Efficient and Precise Genome Editing in Mammalian Cells and In Vivo

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
As a compact type II‐D system, the Cas9d‐based platform holds great potential for in vivo applications. Through rational engineering, its derived base editors (9dBEs) enable efficient disease modeling while facilitating single‐vector AAV delivery for in vivo genome editing. These miniature tools offer a robust strategy for basic research and biomedical

Magnetic Water Cleaning of Estrogens via Tight yet Dynamic Binding to Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Micropollution is one of the big challenges humanity faces with estrogen hormones being emerging pollutants of concern. Here, a supramolecular design strategy is presented that generates a simple nano‐adsorbent material to magnetically remove low‐concentrated estrogens from water.

Insights Into the Nature of Quantum Emitters in Electron‐Irradiated Hexagonal Boron Nitride

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyperspectral imaging is used to identify quantum emitters hosted by the 2D material hexagonal boron nitride. By selecting specific emission wavelengths, one can distinguish individual emitters from ensembles and gain important insights into the atomic structure of these emitters.

Longitudinal Multifrequency MR Elastography Reveals Biomechanical Signatures of Progression in a Translational Liver Tumor Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Longitudinal multifrequency magnetic resonance elastography (mMRE) performed on a clinical 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging system reveals early biomechanical alterations during liver tumor progression in a translational VX2 model. Changes in tumor stiffness and viscosity precede diffusion‐related alterations and are associated with extracellular ...

The GPX3‐VCAM1 Axis Gates Pro‐Fibrotic Tubule Cell Fate in Hyperuricemic Nephropathy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyperuricemia induces NLRP3 inflammasome signaling activation and downregulation of GPX3 in proximal tubular epithelial cells, leading to oxidative stress–driven VCAM1 upregulation, emergence of pro‐fibrotic proximal tubule cells, macrophage recruitment, and renal fibrosis.

CRISPR and Gene Augmentation Rescue Trabecular Meshwork Dysfunction in iPSC Models of Lowe Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling Lowe syndrome using patient‐derived iPSCs, this study establishes a human disease model that faithfully recapitulates OCRL deficiency‐associated ciliary and cytoskeletal defects. The model enables evaluation of both mutation‐agnostic DNA augmentation and CRISPR‐mediated mutation correction strategies, both of which restore OCRL function and
