Effects of aerobic training with and without weight loss on insulin sensitivity and lipids
(2018-05-18)
Purpose:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of exercise training with modest or greater weight loss (≥3%) or not (<3%) on insulin sensitivity, lipoprotein concentrations, and lipoprotein particle size ...
Essential role of proteasomes in maintaining self-renewal in neural progenitor cells
(2016-01-25)
Protein turnover and homeostasis are regulated by the proteasomal system, which is critical for
cell function and viability. Pluripotency of stem cells also relies on normal proteasomal activity that mitigates senescent ...
Driving Decisions: Distinguishing Evaluations, Providers and Outcomes
(2018-05-11)
Driving is a highly valued instrumental activity of daily living on which many older adults depend for access to their community. The demand to address driving is changing as older adults experience increasing longevity ...
Early Mobility in the Hospital: Lessons Learned from the STRIDE Program
(2018-09-26)
Immobility during hospitalization is widely recognized as a contributor to deconditioning, functional loss, and increased need for institutional post-acute care. Several studies have demonstrated that inpatient walking ...
Failure patterns and survival outcomes in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC): a 15 year comparison of 448 non-Hispanic black and white women
(2016-06-17)
Purpose: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a distinct subtype of breast cancer with unique pathologic, molecular and clinical behavior. It occurs more frequently in young blacks and has been reported to have a shorter ...
Effects of finite coverage on global polarization observables in heavy ion collisions
(2018-05-10)
In non-central relativistic heavy ion collisions, the created matter possesses a large initial orbital angular momentum. Particles produced in the collisions could be polarized globally in the direction of the orbital ...
Control of vascular smooth muscle cell growth by connexin 43
(2012-06-21)
Connexin 43 (Cx43), the principal gap junction protein in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), regulates movement of ions and other signaling molecules through gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) and plays ...
A Review of Studies Evaluating Insecticide Barrier Treatments for Mosquito Control From 1944 to 2018
(2019-06-26)
Background and Purpose: Barrier insecticide treatments have a long history in mosquito control programs but have been used more frequently in the United States in recent years for control of invasive “backyard” species ...
Inhibition of vascular smooth muscle growth via signaling crosstalk between amp-activated protein kinase and camp-dependent protein kinase
(2012-10-29)
Abnormal vascular smooth muscle (VSM) growth is central in the pathophysiology of vascular disease yet fully effective therapies to curb this growth are lacking. Recent findings from our lab and others support growth control ...
