There is a growing interest to study cerebellar contributions to aging outside of traditional sensory processing and motor tasks. While cerebellar aging analyses typically utilize functional connectivity (FC) to study functional differences with age, this study aimed to identify a marker of healthy aging based on resting state blood oxygenation level depe ...

The development of multifunctional electro-spun nanofibrous mats has been explored as an effective platform for implantable localized cancer treatment because they provide a supportive matrix to regenerate tissues and deliver encapsulated anticancer drugs to suppress the proliferation of cancer cells. However, conventionally designed nanofibrous scaffolds ...

Singing and vocalization practices are reportedly associated with increased relaxation, better emotional regulation, and enhanced social closeness. Here, we investigate the neural underpinnings of such effects and ask whether they are related to processes linked to the vocalization aspect or are a result of modified breathing patterns. Toning is a form of ...

Modern macrocyclic peptides feature unnatural elements that are used to improve the activity and pharmacokinetic properties. Chemistry beyond peptide synthesis must, however, be employed to introduce such elements. Notably, application of the copper-catalyzed aldehyde-alkyne-amine A3-reaction in ...

Purpose: Cardiolipin is a phospholipid located in the inner mitochondrial membrane and is released following myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. While cardiolipin has documented effects in several tissues, its impact on skeletal muscle function and mitochondrial respiration remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of e ...

Aims/hypothesis: Dysglycaemia in youth results from complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors, yet their individual and combined contributions remain unclear. We aimed to: (1) evaluate the predictive performance of polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for glycaemic traits from childh ...
