Proteomic Patterns and Prediction of Glomerulosclerosis and Its Mechanisms

TL;DR: Protein expression profiles linked to sclerosis in the 5/6 nephrectomy (Nx) rat model of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis suggest early activation of prosclerotic mechanisms even in seemingly intact glomeruli and thymosin beta4 is a marker of such early events and may even contribute to sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Steps to ensure accuracy in genotype and SNP calling from Illumina sequencing data

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors made a systematic assessment of the relative contribution of each step to the accuracy of variant calling from Illumina DNA sequencing data and found that trimming off low-quality tails helped align more reads, but it introduced lots of false positives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fish, shellfish, and long-chain n−3 fatty acid consumption and risk of incident type 2 diabetes in middle-aged Chinese men and women

TL;DR: An inverse association between fish and shellfish intake and T2D in women was found and no evidence of a detrimental effect of fish intake in this population was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Platelet-Derived Growth Factor on the Cellular Response of the Periodontium: An Autoradiographic Study on Dogs

TL;DR: It is suggested that PDGF enhances fibroblast proliferation in early periodontal wound healing, whether used alone or in combination with the ePTFE membrane.
