Characterization of a canine model of glycogen storage disease type IIIa.
(Dis Model Mech, 2012-11)Glycogen storage disease type IIIa (GSD IIIa) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by deficiency of glycogen debranching enzyme (GDE) in liver and muscle. The disorder is clinically heterogeneous and progressive, and ... -
Electron tomography of cryofixed, isometrically contracting insect flight muscle reveals novel actin-myosin interactions.
(PLoS One, 2010-09-09)BACKGROUND: Isometric muscle contraction, where force is generated without muscle shortening, is a molecular traffic jam in which the number of actin-attached motors is maximized and all states of motor action are trapped ... -
Imaging of musculoskeletal bacterial infections by [124I]FIAU-PET/CT.
(PLoS One, 2007-10-10)BACKGROUND: Traditional imaging techniques for the localization and monitoring of bacterial infections, although reasonably sensitive, suffer from a lack of specificity. This is particularly true for musculoskeletal infections. ... -
Overview of FEED, the feeding experiments end-user database.
(Integr Comp Biol, 2011-08)The Feeding Experiments End-user Database (FEED) is a research tool developed by the Mammalian Feeding Working Group at the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center that permits synthetic, evolutionary analyses of the physiology ... -
Pairing of competitive and topologically distinct regulatory modules enhances patterned gene expression.
(Mol Syst Biol, 2008)Biological networks are inherently modular, yet little is known about how modules are assembled to enable coordinated and complex functions. We used RNAi and time series, whole-genome microarray analyses to systematically ... -
Pilot Study of [18F] Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography (FDG-PET)/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for Staging of Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC).
(Clinical genitourinary cancer, 2020-10)<h4>Introduction</h4>Computed tomography (CT) has limited diagnostic accuracy for staging of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). [18F] Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET)/magnetic resonance imaging ... -
Profound muscle weakness and hypokalemia due to clay ingestion.
(Southern medical journal, 1988-02)We have presented the case of a 43-year-old woman with severe myositis due to clay ingestion and hypokalemia. EMG studies revealed a pattern consistent with myositis, and muscle biopsy showed a nonspecific diffuse myositis. ... -
Synthetic lethal analysis of Caenorhabditis elegans posterior embryonic patterning genes identifies conserved genetic interactions.
(Genome Biol, 2005)Phenotypic robustness is evidenced when single-gene mutations do not result in an obvious phenotype. It has been suggested that such phenotypic stability results from 'buffering' activities of homologous genes as well as ...
