A combined linkage and exome sequencing analysis for electrocardiogram parameters in the Erasmus Rucphen Family study

Frontiers in Genetics, 2016
Electrocardiogram (ECG) measurements play a key role in the diagnosis and prediction of cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. ECG parameters, such as the PR, QRS, and QT intervals, are known to be heritable and genome-wide association studies ...

“Every MC raps, but not every rapper is an MC”: Examining the MC/Rapper rivalry in American rap music

Volume !, 2022
What’s the difference between the terms “rapper” and “MC”? Do they both describe the same practice? How can their deep-seated rivalry be explained? And how has the symbolic hierarchy between them been established? Through an analysis of the rise (1973-1979) and the economic consolidation of the hip hop movement and of rap music (in the early 1980s ...

Enamel matrix derivative has no effect on the chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2014
Background: Treatment of large bone defects due to trauma, tumour resection, or congenital abnormalities is challenging. Bone tissue engineering using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represents a promising treatment option.

Gene length corrected trimmed mean of M-values (GeTMM) processing of RNA-seq data performs similarly in intersample analyses while improving intrasample comparisons

BMC Bioinformatics, 2018
Background Current normalization methods for RNA-sequencing data allow either for intersample comparison to identify differentially expressed (DE) genes or for intrasample comparison for the discovery and validation of gene signatures.

Occurrence of the Microcystins MC-LW and MC-LF in Dutch Surface Waters and Their Contribution to Total Microcystin Toxicity

Marine Drugs, 2013
Microcystins (MCs) are the most frequently found cyanobacterial toxins in freshwater systems. Many MC variants have been identified and variants differ in their toxicity. Recent studies showed that the variants MC-LW and MC-LF might be more toxic than MC-

Autologous Dendritic Cell Therapy in Mesothelioma Patients Enhances Frequencies of Peripheral CD4 T Cells Expressing HLA-DR, PD-1, or ICOS

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Introduction: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a malignancy with a very poor prognosis for which new treatment options are urgently needed. We have previously shown that dendritic cell (DC) immunotherapy provides a clinically feasible treatment ...

Mediator complex interaction partners organize the transcriptional network that defines neural stem cells

Nature Communications, 2019
The Mediator complex regulates transcription by connecting enhancers to promoters. Here, the authors purify Mediator from neural stem cells (NSCs), identify 75 novel protein-protein interaction partners and characterize the Mediator-interacting network ...
