The current state of biomarker research for Friedreich's ataxia: a report from the 2018 FARA biomarker meeting [PDF]
, 2019 The 2018 FARA Biomarker Meeting highlighted the current state of development of biomarkers for Friedreich's ataxia. A mass spectroscopy assay to sensitively measure mature frataxin (reduction of which is the root cause of disease) is being developed ...

Fetal roots of cardiac disease [PDF]
Heart, 2005 In western countries, cardiovascular disease is the leading killer of men and women. In the past decade, it has become increasingly clear that women are just as vulnerable to heart disease as men. In 2004, the number of women with some form of the disease will exceed the number of such men in the USA (www.americanheart.org).

Polyphenol Oxidase as a Biochemical Seed Defense Mechanism
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Seed dormancy and resistance to decay are fundamental survival strategies, which allow a population of seeds to germinate over long periods of time. Seeds have physical, chemical, and biological defense mechanisms that protect their food reserves from ...

Transparent soil for imaging the rhizosphere [PDF]
, 2012 Understanding of soil processes is essential for addressing the global issues of food security, disease transmission and climate change. However, techniques for observing soil biology are lacking. We present a heterogeneous, porous, transparent substrate

Disease Mapping via Negative Binomial Regression M-quantiles [PDF]
, 2013 We introduce a semi-parametric approach to ecological regression for disease mapping, based on modelling the regression M-quantiles of a Negative Binomial variable. The proposed method is robust to outliers in the model covariates, including those due to

Peripheral blood gene expression reveals an inflammatory transcriptomic signature in Friedreich's ataxia patients. [PDF]
, 2018 Transcriptional changes in Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA), a rare and debilitating recessive Mendelian neurodegenerative disorder, have been studied in affected but inaccessible tissues-such as dorsal root ganglia, sensory neurons and cerebellum-in animal ...

Selection of Bacterial Strains for Control of Root-Knot Disease Caused by Meloidogyne incognita
Microorganisms, 2021 Root-knot disease caused by Meloidogyne incognita leads to significant crop yield losses that may be aggravated by the association with pathogenic fungi and bacteria.

Take-all of Wheat and Natural Disease Suppression: A Review
The Plant Pathology Journal, 2013 In agro-ecosystems worldwide, some of the most important and devastating diseases are caused by soil-borne necrotrophic fungal pathogens, against which crop plants generally lack genetic resistance.
