Reactive oxygen species regulate hypoxia-inducible factor 1 differentially in cancer and ischemia
In exercise, as well as cancer and ischemia, hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF1) transcriptionally activates hundreds of genes vital for cell homeostasis and angiogenesis. While potentially beneficial in ischemia, upregulation of the HIF1 transcription factor has been linked to inflammation, poor prognosis in many cancers, and decreased susceptibility of tumors to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. ...

The Mode of Action of Basic Proteins Involved in Cancer and Alzheimer's Disease Found
These proteins belonging to the HAT family are essential for life because they transport amino acids to the cell membrane. Although members of the family are nearly identical, they selectively transport certain amino acids. This specificity determines their involvement in specific functions, such as cell growth or neuronal function, and consequently in related diseases, such as cancer or ...

Important Brain Networks
Introduction By leveraging Connectomics to trace functional connectivity, seven large-scale brain networks have been identified. These networks have the most dominance over cortical function in the brain, and each serves an overarching common function. While some networks are familiar, many networks, and their constituents, are newly discovered1. These major networks control brain ...

Discovery of Pathways that Promote Remyelination
In the evolutionary history of vertebrates, the emergence of myelin has made the transmission of neural signals much faster, and if humans evolve like invertebrate squid, the vertebral diameter of humans may be thicker than that of giant red fir trees. Insulating myelin sheaths encapsulate nerve axons, thereby allowing rapid conduction of action potentials between neurons, and in addition, myelin ...

Andrea Wolkenberg : Why Winback TECAR and Why Now?
As a physical therapist for over 40 years, I have developed a core set of values, chief among them is dedication to lifelong learning. And the more I learn the more I realize how much I don’t know it’s a humbling, frustrating, energizing, exciting and exhausting realization. But at the same time, the more I learn the more I realize how connected and integrated so many of the ...
