Aging Shapes the Population-Mean and -Dispersion of Gene Expression in Human Brains.

Frontiers in aging neuroscience

Brinkmeyer-Langford CL, Guan J, Ji G, Cai JJ.
PMID: 27536236
Front Aging Neurosci. 2016 Aug 03;8:183. doi: 10.3389/fnagi.2016.00183. eCollection 2016.

Human aging is associated with cognitive decline and an increased risk of neurodegenerative disease. Our objective for this study was to evaluate potential relationships between age and variation in gene expression across different regions of the brain. We analyzed...

Background.  In this study, we analyzed the protective efficacy of a simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) macaque 239 (SIVmac239) analogue of the clinically tested GOVX-B11 deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)/modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) human immunodeficiency virus vaccine. Methods.  The tested vaccine used...

Developing training for Data Safety Monitoring Board members: A National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases case study.

BioData Min. 2016 Apr 05;9:13. doi: 10.1186/s13040-016-0090-8. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Gene isoforms are commonly found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Since each isoform may perform a specific function in response to changing environmental conditions, studying the dynamics of gene isoforms is important in understanding biological processes and disease...

Enabling Ontology Based Semantic Queries in Biomedical Database Systems.

International journal of semantic computing

Zheng S, Wang F, Lu J.
PMID: 25541585
Int J Semant Comput. 2014 Mar;8(1):67-83. doi: 10.1142/S1793351X14500032.

There is a lack of tools to ease the integration and ontology based semantic queries in biomedical databases, which are often annotated with ontology concepts. We aim to provide a middle layer between ontology repositories and semantically annotated databases...

Knowledge and theme discovery across very large biological data sets using distributed queries: a prototype combining unstructured and structured data.

PloS one

Mudunuri US, Khouja M, Repetski S, Venkataraman G, Che A, Luke BT, Girard FP, Stephens RM.

Breast Cancer (Auckl). 2015 Jun 08;9:31-40. doi: 10.4137/BCBCR.S23577. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: There is a strong need to define the molecular changes in normal at-risk breast epithelium to identify biomarkers and new targets for breast cancer prevention and to develop a molecular signature for risk assessment. Improved methods of breast...

Designing brighter near-infrared fluorescent proteins: insights from structural and biochemical studies.

Chemical science

Baloban M, Shcherbakova DM, Pletnev S, Pletnev VZ, Lagarias JC, Verkhusha VV.
PMID: 28936332
Chem Sci. 2017 Jun 01;8(6):4546-4557. doi: 10.1039/c7sc00855d. Epub 2017 May 04.

Brighter near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent proteins (FPs) are required for multicolor microscopy and deep-tissue imaging. Here, we present structural and biochemical analyses of three monomeric, spectrally distinct phytochrome-based NIR FPs, termed miRFPs. The miRFPs are closely related and differ by...
