© 2019 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. The tumor suppressor p53 regulates different cellular pathways involved in cell survival, DNA repair, apoptosis, and senescence. However, according to an increasing number of studies, the p53-... Read More about p53-Mediated Tumor Suppression: DNA-Damage Response and Alternative Mechanisms.

The heavy metals lead and cadmium are cytotoxic to human bone osteoblasts via induction of redox stress (2019)
Journal Article
Al-Ghafari, A., Elmorsy, E., Fikry, E., Alrowaili, M., & Carter, W. G. (2019). The heavy metals lead and cadmium are cytotoxic to human bone osteoblasts via induction of redox stress. PLoS ONE, 14(11), Article e0225341. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0225341

The heavy metals (HMs) lead and cadmium are persistent environmental pollutants capable of inducing ill-health in exposed individuals. One of the primary sites of accumulation and potential damage from HMs is bone, and we therefore examined the acute...

Reduced Myelin Signal in Normal-appearing White Matter in Neuromyelitis Optica Measured by 7T Magnetic Resonance Imaging (2019)
Journal Article
Chou, I.-J., Tanasescu, R., Mougin, O. E., Gowland, P. A., Tench, C. R., Whitehouse, W. P., …Constantinescu, C. S. (2019). Reduced Myelin Signal in Normal-appearing White Matter in Neuromyelitis Optica Measured by 7T Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Scientific Reports, 9, Article 14378. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-50928-0

Whether the integrity of normal-appearing white matter (NAWM) is preserved in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) is open to debate. To examine whether the tissue integrity of NAWM in NMOSD is compromised compared to that in healthy contr...

Background: Influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza virus, and metapneumovirus are the most common viruses associated with acute lower respiratory infections in young children (

Collagen (XI) alpha-1 chain (COL11A1) is an independent prognostic factor in breast ductal carcinoma in situ (2019)
Journal Article
Toss, M. S., Miligy, I. M., Gorringe, K. L., Aleskandarany, M. A., Alkawaz, A., Mittal, K., …Rakha, E. A. (2019). Collagen (XI) alpha-1 chain (COL11A1) is an independent prognostic factor in breast ductal carcinoma in situ. Modern Pathology,

Collagen11A1 (COL11A1) is a fibrillary type collagen constituting a minor component of the extracellular matrix and plays role in tissue tensile strength. Overexpression of COL11A1 expression is associated with aggressive behavior and poor outcome in...

Switching from linear to macrocyclic gadolinium‐based contrast agents halts the relative T 1 ‐Weighted signal increase in deep gray matter of children with brain tumors: A retrospective study (2019)
Journal Article
Rowe, S. K., Rodriguez, D., Cohen, E., Grundy, R., Morgan, P. S., Jaspan, T., & Dineen, R. A. (2019). Switching from linear to macrocyclic gadolinium‐based contrast agents halts the relative T 1 ‐Weighted signal increase in deep gray matter of children with brain tumors: A retrospective study. Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, https://doi.org/10.1002/jmri.26831


Background

Studies have shown signal intensity (SI) changes in the brains of children exposed to repeated doses of a gadolinium‐based contrast agent (GBCA).
Hypothesis

The trajectory of changes in relative dentate nucleus (DN) and globus pal... Read More about Switching from linear to macrocyclic gadolinium‐based contrast agents halts the relative T 1 ‐Weighted signal increase in deep gray matter of children with brain tumors: A retrospective study.

Young adults' attitudes to sharing whole-genome sequencing information: a university-based survey (2019)
Journal Article
Stringer, P., Sharples, S., Thomson, B. J., & Garibaldi, J. M. (2019). Young adults' attitudes to sharing whole-genome sequencing information: a university-based survey. BMC Medical Genomics, 12, Article 55. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12920-019-0499-2

Background
Genomic services are increasingly accessible to young adults starting their independent lives with responsibility for their self-care, yet their attitudes to sharing genomic information remain under-researched. This study explored attitud... Read More about Young adults' attitudes to sharing whole-genome sequencing information: a university-based survey.
