Sputum Gene Expression of IL-13 Receptor α2 Chain Correlates with Airflow Obstruction and Helper T-Cell Type 2 Inflammation in Asthma.

Annals of the American Thoracic Society

Nezgovorova V, Liu Q, Hu B, Villalobos JL, Yan X, Niu N, Holm C, Grant NP, Marone S, Ravage-Mass L, Lee CG, Elias JA, Cohn L, Chupp GL.
PMID: 27027964
Ann Am Thorac Soc. 2016 Mar;13:S96-7. doi: 10.1513/AnnalsATS.201509-611MG.

BACKGROUND: BRP-39/YKL-40 is a chitinase-like protein that plays a critical role in IL-13-induced inflammation. It correlates positively with asthma severity and airway remodeling ( 1 ) via binding to IL-13 receptor α2 chain (IL-13Rα2). Because the relationship of IL-13Rα2...

Disposable Plasmonics: Plastic Templated Plasmonic Metamaterials with Tunable Chirality.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)

Karimullah AS, Jack C, Tullius R, Rotello VM, Cooke G, Gadegaard N, Barron LD, Kadodwala M.
PMID: 26306427
Adv Mater. 2015 Oct 07;27(37):5610-6. doi: 10.1002/adma.201501816. Epub 2015 Aug 26.

Development of low-cost disposable plasmonic substrates is vital for the applicability of plasmonic sensing. Such devices can be made using injection-molded templates to create plasmonic films. The elements of these plasmonic films are hybrid nanostructures composed of inverse and...

Do beaver dams reduce habitat connectivity and salmon productivity in expansive river floodplains?.

PeerJ

Malison RL, Kuzishchin KV, Stanford JA.
PMID: 27635357
PeerJ. 2016 Sep 01;4:e2403. doi: 10.7717/peerj.2403. eCollection 2016.

Beaver have expanded in their native habitats throughout the northern hemisphere in recent decades following reductions in trapping and reintroduction efforts. Beaver have the potential to strongly influence salmon populations in the side channels of large alluvial rivers by...

Understanding grapevine-microbiome interactions: implications for viticulture industry.

Microbial cell (Graz, Austria)

Zarraonaindia I, Gilbert JA.
PMID: 28357290
Microb Cell. 2015 May 04;2(5):171-173. doi: 10.15698/mic2015.05.204.

Until recently, the analysis of complex communities such as that of the grapevine-microbe holobiont has been limited by the fact that most microbes are not culturable under laboratory conditions (less than 1%). However, metagenomics, the study of the genetic...

A time-lapse photography method for monitoring salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) passage and abundance in streams.

PeerJ

Deacy WW, Leacock WB, Eby LA, Stanford JA.
PMID: 27326378
PeerJ. 2016 Jun 14;4:e2120. doi: 10.7717/peerj.2120. eCollection 2016.

Accurately estimating population sizes is often a critical component of fisheries research and management. Although there is a growing appreciation of the importance of small-scale salmon population dynamics to the stability of salmon stock-complexes, our understanding of these populations...

Transferring genomics to the clinic: distinguishing Burkitt and diffuse large B cell lymphomas.

Genome medicine

Sha C, Barrans S, Care MA, Cunningham D, Tooze RM, Jack A, Westhead DR.
PMID: 26207141
Genome Med. 2015 Jul 01;7(1):64. doi: 10.1186/s13073-015-0187-6. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Classifiers based on molecular criteria such as gene expression signatures have been developed to distinguish Burkitt lymphoma and diffuse large B cell lymphoma, which help to explore the intermediate cases where traditional diagnosis is difficult. Transfer of these...

Genome-Wide Association Study of Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D in US Women.

Frontiers in genetics

O'Brien KM, Sandler DP, Shi M, Harmon QE, Taylor JA, Weinberg CR.
PMID: 29545823
Front Genet. 2018 Mar 01;9:67. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2018.00067. eCollection 2018.

Genetic factors likely influence individuals' concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], a biomarker of vitamin D exposure previously linked to reduced risk of several chronic diseases. We conducted a genome-wide association study of serum 25(OH)D (assessed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass...

Measuring Health System Progress in Reducing Mortality from Noncommunicable Diseases.

Rand health quarterly

Mattke S, Chow JC.
PMID: 28083255
Rand Health Q. 2012 Jun 01;2(2):14. eCollection 2012.

Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) place a heavy burden on developing countries, whose relatively recent adoption of Western-style health behaviors and lifestyle choices has led to increased prevalence of risk factors for NCDs over the past decade. NCDs are compounding the...

Spatial control of chemical processes on nanostructures through nano-localized water heating.

Nature communications

Jack C, Karimullah AS, Tullius R, Khorashad LK, Rodier M, Fitzpatrick B, Barron LD, Gadegaard N, Lapthorn AJ, Rotello VM, Cooke G, Govorov AO, Kadodwala M.
PMID: 26961708
Nat Commun. 2016 Mar 10;7:10946. doi: 10.1038/ncomms10946.

Optimal performance of nanophotonic devices, including sensors and solar cells, requires maximizing the interaction between light and matter. This efficiency is optimized when active moieties are localized in areas where electromagnetic (EM) fields are confined. Confinement of matter in...
