Methods to Discover and Evaluate Proteasome Small Molecule Stimulators
Protein accumulation has been identified as a characteristic of many degenerative conditions, such as neurodegenerative diseases and aging. In most cases, these conditions also present with diminished protein degradation. The ubiquitin-proteasome system (

Reduced Muscle Fatigue Using Continuous Subthreshold Kilohertz Stimulation of Peripheral Nerves [PDF]
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a prevalent technique commonly used to activate muscles in individuals with neurological disorders. Traditional FES strategies predominantly utilize low-frequency (LF) stimulation, which evokes synchronous action potentials, leading to rapid muscle fatigue.

NAD+ regeneration by mitochondrial complex I NADH dehydrogenase is important for cancer cell proliferation. Specifically, NAD+ is necessary for the activities of NAD+‐dependent deacetylases SIRT3 and SIRT7, which suppress the expression of p21Cip1 cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor, an antiproliferative molecule, at the translational and transcriptional

WAND: A 128-channel, closed-loop, wireless artifact-free neuromodulation device [PDF]
Closed-loop neuromodulation systems aim to treat a variety of neurological conditions by dynamically delivering and adjusting therapeutic electrical stimulation in response to a patient's neural state, recorded in real-time. Existing systems are limited by low channel counts, lack of algorithmic flexibility, and distortion of recorded signals from ...

Molecular and functional profiling unravels targetable vulnerabilities in colorectal cancer
We used whole exome and RNA‐sequencing to profile divergent genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of microsatellite stable (MSS) and microsatellite instable (MSI) colorectal cancer. Alterations were classified using a computational score for integrative cancer variant annotation and prioritization.

Non-Invasive Temporal Interference Electrical Stimulation for Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation: A Simulation Study [PDF]
Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation remains a major clinical challenge, with limited treatment options for functional recovery. Temporal interference (TI) electrical stimulation has emerged as a promising non-invasive neuromodulation technique capable of delivering deep and targeted stimulation.
