Evolutionary, Medical, and Clinical Applications of Whole Exome Sequencing
As we all know, proteins play important roles in human bodies since all physiologic events are related to the structural or mechanical functions of certain proteins. Studying the synthesis process of proteins is a way to study the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of certain diseases. The human genome contains approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA. Among them, only about 30 ...

Finite element modeling of the full lumbar spine with an intervertebral disc nucleus replacement device
Introduction Nucleus replacement technologies are a minimally invasive treatment for degenerative tSsc disease. Nucleus replacement may better restore the natural biomechanics of the spine compared to alternative treatments. Finite element (FE) modeling can be used to determine the biomechanics associated with nucleus replacement devices. A novel nucleus replacement device was ...

VetStem Cell Therapy for Canine Cruciate Ligament Tears
Cruciate ligament rupture is one of the most common reasons for hind limb lameness, pain, and subsequent knee arthritis in dogs. Additionally, according to the American College of Veterinary Surgeons, 40-60% of dogs who injure one cruciate ligament will go on to injure the other cruciate ligament in the future. While there are multiple treatment options available, both surgical and non-surgical, ...

Combatting the Opioid Crisis with Cell Therapies for Chronic Back Pain
It’s no secret that opioid addiction is at an all-time high and represents a major public health threat. The CDC estimates that opioid addiction resulted in a record 72,000 drug overdose deaths in 2017 alone. What strikes me as one of the most tragic parts of this narrative is that so many of these deaths were people who became addicted to opioids after simply seeking relief ...
