Reduced selenium concentrations and glutathione peroxidase activity in preeclamptic pregnancies (2008)
Journal Article
Mistry, H. D., Wilson, V., Ramsay, M. M., Symonds, M. E., & Broughton Pipkin, F. (2008). Reduced selenium concentrations and glutathione peroxidase activity in preeclamptic pregnancies. Hypertension, 52, https://doi.org/10.1161/HYPERTENSIONAHA.108.116103

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific condition affecting 2-7% of women and a leading cause of perinatal and maternal morbidity and mortality. Preeclampsia may also predispose the fetus to increased risks of adult cardiovascular disease. Selenium, act...

Radiological classification of optic pathway gliomas: experience of a modified functional classification system (2008)
Journal Article
Walker, D., Benson, C., Ritzmann, T., Parker, T., Gregson, R., Milano, G., Jaspan, T., & Taylor, T. (2008). Radiological classification of optic pathway gliomas: experience of a modified functional classification system. British Journal of Radiology, 81(970), 761-766. https://doi.org/10.1259/bjr/65246351

Optic pathway gliomas (OPGs) in childhood are associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and since 1958 have been classified anatomically using the Dodge classification (DC). MR scanning permits a more detailed anatomical description than can be...

Telomeric 3′-overhang length is associated with the size of telomeres (2008)
Journal Article
Rahman, R., Forsyth, N. R., & Cui, W. (2008). Telomeric 3′-overhang length is associated with the size of telomeres. Experimental Gerontology, 43(4), 258-265. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.exger.2008.01.005

Telomeres are specialized DNA/protein complexes that cap eukaryotic chromosome ends as T-loop structures and maintain genomic integrity. Vertebrate telomeric DNA consists of tandem double-strand repeats which terminate in a 3 0 single-strand G-rich o...

Differential acetylation of histone H4 lysine during development of in vitro fertilized, cloned and parthenogenetically activated bovine embryos (2008)
Journal Article
Maalouf, W. E., Alberio, R., & Campbell, K. H. (2008). Differential acetylation of histone H4 lysine during development of in vitro fertilized, cloned and parthenogenetically activated bovine embryos. Epigenetics, 3(4), 199-209. https://doi.org/10.4161/epi.3.4.6497

The oocyte is remarkable in its ability to remodel parental genomes following fertilization and to reprogram somatic nuclei after nuclear transfer (NT). To characterize the patterns of histone H4 acetylation and DNA methylation during development of...
