Glob Cardiol Sci Pract. 2014 Oct 16;2014(3):309-29. doi: 10.5339/gcsp.2014.44. eCollection 2014.

Treatment of cardiovascular diseases remains challenging considering the limited regeneration capacity of the heart muscle. Developments of reprogramming strategies to create in vitro and in vivo cardiomyocytes have been the focus point of a considerable amount of research in...

Novel spectrophotometric method for selective determination of compounds in ternary mixtures (dual wavelength in ratio spectra).

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy

Saad AS.
PMID: 25847787
Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc. 2015 Aug 05;147:257-61. doi: 10.1016/j.saa.2015.03.095. Epub 2015 Mar 31.

A simple selective spectrophotometric method for determination of compounds in ternary mixture was developed by combining the resolution power of two well-known methods that are commonly used for binary mixtures; namely ratio difference method and dual wavelength. The new...

DNA methylation as an epigenetic biomarker in colorectal cancer.

Oncology letters

Silva TD, Vidigal VM, Felipe AV, DE Lima JM, Neto RA, Saad SS, Forones NM.
PMID: 24260063
Oncol Lett. 2013 Dec;6(6):1687-1692. doi: 10.3892/ol.2013.1606. Epub 2013 Oct 07.

Sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC) is a consequence of the accumulation of genetic and epigenetic alterations that result in the transformation of normal colonic epithelial cells to adenocarcinomas. Studies have indicated that a common event in the tumorigenesis of CRC...

Effective Preprocessing Procedures Virtually Eliminate Distance-Dependent Motion Artifacts in Resting State FMRI.

Journal of applied mathematics

Jo HJ, Gotts SJ, Reynolds RC, Bandettini PA, Martin A, Cox RW, Saad ZS.
PMID: 24415902
J Appl Math. 2013 May 21;2013. doi: 10.1155/2013/935154.

Artifactual sources of resting-state (RS) FMRI can originate from head motion, physiology, and hardware. Of these sources, motion has received considerable attention and was found to induce corrupting effects by differentially biasing correlations between regions depending on their distance....

Computational Detection of Stage-Specific Transcription Factor Clusters during Heart Development.

Frontiers in genetics

Zeidler S, Meckbach C, Tacke R, Raad FS, Roa A, Uchida S, Zimmermann WH, Wingender E, Gültas M.
PMID: 27047536
Front Genet. 2016 Mar 23;7:33. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2016.00033. eCollection 2016.

Transcription factors (TFs) regulate gene expression in living organisms. In higher organisms, TFs often interact in non-random combinations with each other to control gene transcription. Understanding the interactions is key to decipher mechanisms underlying tissue development. The aim of...

Design of mechanically-tunable photonic crystal split-beam nanocavity.

Optics letters

Lin T, Tian F, Shi P, Chau FS, Zhou G, Tang X, Deng J.

Opt Lett. 2015 Aug 01;40(15):3504-7. doi: 10.1364/OL.40.003504.

Photonic crystal split-beam nanocavities allow for ultra-sensitive optomechanical transductions but are degraded due to their relatively low optical quality factors. We have proposed and experimentally demonstrated a new type of one-dimensional photonic crystal split-beam nanocavity optimized for an ultra-high...
