Food and Lifestyle Behavior – Do We See an Impact of Epigenetic Burden of Chronic Disease?
Increasing consumption of western and low fiber diets, smoking or just exposure to tobacco smoke, harmful use of alcohol, physical inactivity, and environmental pollutants may have programed the human epigenome for higher NCCDs risk.
Particle Targeting in Complex Biological Media
Parameters that affect the biological performance of particles and highlight strategies for improved targeting ability of particles.
Vascular Health Profile Predicts Cardiovascular Outcomes in Diabetics
Researchers developed a novel high dimensional cytomic assay, the Vascular Health Profile (VHP).
Maximising the Potential of Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cell research can be a divisive topic. Dr. Suzanne Peterson discusses strategies to minimise the tumorigenic potential of stem cell therapies.
Using Genome-Scale Metabolic Models for Human Diseases
Genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) are relatively new tools for studying the metabolic changes associated with many diseases. GEMs are reconstructions of the metabolic networks of cells, sometimes able to represent an organism’s whole body.
Ketosis Mimics the Life Span Expanding Powers of Caloric Restriction
Mechanisms of the action for ketosis in aging and extending life span are proposed in a recent review.
Essential But Toxic – Copper Homeostasis
Humans are rich in copper. And so are all other living organisms. But copper is toxic, therefore, it has to be kept at bay to counteract its cytotoxic effects in live cells – how do we stay healthy?
