Journal ArticleDOI
Glutathione S-transferase GSTM1 phenotypes and protection against cutaneous tumours
A.H.M. Heagerty,D A Fitzgerald,Andrew Smith,Bill Bowers,Peter W. Jones,Anthony A. Fryer,Lu Zhao,Julie Alldersea,Richard C. Strange +8 more
TL;DR: GSTM1 A/B may be protective, and effectiveness of detoxication may be a factor determining susceptibility to skin cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
The cardiovirulent phenotype of coxsackievirus B3 is determined at a single site in the genomic 5' nontranslated region
Z. Tu,Nora M. Chapman,Günter Hufnagel,Steven Tracy,Jose R. Romero,William H. Barry,Lu Zhao,Kathleen M. Currey,B Shapiro +8 more
TL;DR: A significant role is supported for determination of the CVB3 cardiovirulence phenotype by nucleotide 234 in the 5' nontranslated region, possibly via a transcriptional mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reid,Wendy M. Ridenour,Christian Rixen,Sonja Wipf,Lu Zhao,Rob W. Brooker +27 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of foundation species and climate on alpine plant communities were investigated, showing that foundation species functioned as micro-refugia by facilitating less stress-tolerant lineages in severe environments, erasing a global productivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Association of relative brain age with tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, and genetic variants
TL;DR: The results suggest that both environmental and genetic factors are associated with structural brain aging, including tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, and genetic variants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuroanatomical morphometric characterization of sex differences in youth using statistical learning.
Farshid Sepehrband,Kirsten M. Lynch,Ryan P. Cabeen,Clio Gonzalez-Zacarias,Lu Zhao,Mike D'Arcy,Carl Kesselman,Megan M. Herting,Ivo D. Dinov,Arthur W. Toga,Kristi A. Clark +10 more
TL;DR: A multivariate statistical learning model using a support vector machine (SVM) classifier to predict sex from MRI‐derived regional neuroanatomical features from a single‐site study of 967 healthy youth from the Philadelphia Neurodevelopmental Cohort (PNC).
