Modeling Alzheimer's Disease Using CRISPR/CAS9 Gene Editing and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Reveals Conserved Cellular Mechanisms
Dylan Kwart
Jan 01, 0001
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia worldwide and a leading cause of death in the United States. Rare cases of autosomal dominant familial AD (fAD) result from genetic mutations in three key genes...

Pleistocene Water Crossings and Adaptive Flexibility Within the Homo Genus
Dylan Gaffney
Apr 29, 2021
Abstract: Pleistocene water crossings, long thought to be an innovation of Homo sapiens, may extend beyond our species to encompass Middle and Early Pleistocene Homo. However, it remains unclear how water crossings differed...

Synthesis and Analysis of Small Fluorogenic Probes for Chlorite Detection
Dylan Ford
Jan 01, 0001
Chlorite is a common water contaminant that is most commonly introduced to drinking water sources through wastewater disinfection and textile bleaching. Consumption of elevated levels of chlorite have been shown to produce...

The Regulation of Cathepsin L Activity by Estrogen and Bisphenols A & S: Relationship to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Dylan T Cuva
Jan 01, 0001
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that is linked to increased levels of estrogen. Bisphenol A (BPA) is an environmental estrogen that may also play a role in SLE. BPA is used in the production of...

The understanding, acceptability, and relevance of personalised multidimensional physical activity feedback among urban adults
Background
Wearable technologies are being used to provide personalised feedback across multiple physical activity dimensions in countries such as the UK, but their feasibility has not been tested in South Asia, where...

Identification of the lz4 Suppressor of pam-1 and its Role in Polarity Establishment in Single-cell C. elegans Embryos
Dylan Stephens
Jan 01, 0001
In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, cell polarity in the single-cell embryo is indicative of anterior-posterior (AP) axis formation, which is essential for future functional potential. AP axis polarization is initiated by...

A Cellular and Molecular Characterization of the Microglial Cell Population in Ambystoma mexicanum
Dylan T Ammons
Jan 01, 0001
The central nervous system (CNS), which consists of the spinal cord and brain, is complex and needs to be better understood. To gain insight, a single cellular population, the microglial cells, are described in the healthy and...

Experimental Study of Neutron Shell Structure in Chromium-53 via Neutron Transfer to Chromium-52
Dylan Todd Brown-Simms
Jan 01, 0001
A measurement of the 52Cr(d,p) 53Cr reaction at 16 MeV was performed using the Florida State University Super-Enge Split-Pole Spectrograph to determine single-neutron energies for the 2p3/2, 2p1/2, and 1f5/2 orbits. We were able...

Multidimensional physical activity
Our research shows that no single metric will reflect an individual’s physical activity adequately because multiple biologically important dimensions are independent and unrelated. We propose that there is an opportunity to...

Supporting behaviour change in sedentary adults via real-time multidimensional physical activity feedback
BACKGROUND:
Increasing physical activity (PA) behaviour remains a public health priority and wearable technology is increasingly being used to support behaviour change efforts. Using wearables to capture and provide...
