The role of tachysterol in vitamin D photosynthesis - A non-adiabatic molecular dynamics study [PDF]
To investigate the role of tachysterol in the photophysical/chemical regulation of vitamin D photosynthesis, we studied its electronic absorption properties and excited state dynamics using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), coupled cluster theory (CC2), and non-adiabatic molecular dynamics.

Conformationally controlled photochemistry studied by trajectory surface hopping [PDF]
This article reviews trajectory surface hopping methods to study conformationally controlled photochemistry. Besides focusing on the linear response time-dependent density functional theory surface hopping method, it reviews the generation of Boltzmann ensembles as starting conditions for photochemical dynamics, the calculation of electronic and ...

Klotho pathways, myelination disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and epigenetic drugs [PDF]
In this review we outline a rationale for identifying neuroprotectants aimed at inducing endogenous Klotho activity and expression, which is epigenetic action, by definition. Such an approach should promote remyelination and/or stimulate myelin repair by

Evidence from web-based dietary search patterns to the role of B12 deficiency in chronic pain [PDF]
Profound vitamin B12 deficiency is a known cause of disease, but the role of low or intermediate levels of B12 in the development of neuropathy and other neuropsychiatric symptoms as well as the relationship of eating meat and B12 levels is unclear.
