Repetitive Imaging of Reporter Gene Expression in the Lung
Positron emission tomographic imaging is emerging as a powerful technology to monitor reporter transgene expression in the lungs and other organs. However, little information is available about its usefulness for studying gene expression over time ...

Electrophoresis of Adenovirus-Specified Thymidine Kinase [PDF]
Stimulation of thymidine kinase (TK) activity occurs after abortive or productive infection with human adenoviruses. Striking changes in TK electrophoretic profile accompany this stimulation.

Abstract Quantitative risk assessments of chemicals are routinely performed using in vivo data from rodents; however, there is growing recognition that non‐animal approaches can be human‐relevant alternatives. There is an urgent need to build confidence in non‐animal alternatives given the international support to reduce the use of animals in toxicity ...

Development of a genetic sensor that eliminates p53 deficient cells
TP53 is mutated in many cancers, a system to detect and selectively eliminate p53 mutant cells is an attractive therapeutic strategy. Here, the authors present a genetic sensor that can detect p53 activity and is coupled to the thymidine kinase gene ...

Somatic cell reprogramming for Parkinson's disease treatment
The fundamental purpose of cell reprogramming to treat Parkinson's disease is to generate dopaminergic neurons (DAN) and do transplantation. There are two ways to accomplish this. One method is to induce cells into induced DA neurons (iDAN) directly or to induce cells into induced pluripotent stem cells and ultimately into iDAN in vitro. Another option

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

An ecological framework for microbial metabolites in the ocean ecosystem
Abstract The ocean microbe‐metabolite network involves thousands of individual metabolites that encompass a breadth of chemical diversity and biological functions. These microbial metabolites mediate biogeochemical cycles, facilitate ecological relationships, and impact ecosystem health. While analytical advancements have begun to illuminate such roles,

Advances in Molecularly Imprinted Polymers for Bone Biomarker Detection and Therapeutic Applications
This review highlights the emerging applications of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) in bone regeneration and diagnosis. MIPs facilitate osteogenic treatments by guiding stem cell differentiation and delivering bioactive molecules and enable precise detection of bone turnover biomarkers via MIP‐based sensors, offering promising strategies for next‐
