MICROARRAY ANALYSIS OF EXPRESSION OF CELL DEATH-ASSOCIATED GENES IN RAT SPINAL CORD CELLS EXPOSED TO CYCLIC TENSILE STRESSES IN VITRO

Microarray analysis of expression of cell death-associated genes in rat spinal cord cells exposed to cyclic tensile stresses in vitro

Abstract Background The application of mechanical insults to the spinal cord results in profound cellular and molecular changes, including the induction of neuronal cell death and altered gene expression profiles.Previous studies have described alterations in gene expression following spinal cord injury, but the specificity of this response to mech

First-tier next-generation sequencing for newborn screening: An important role for biochemical second-tier testing

There is Adrenal Support discussion of expanding newborn screening (NBS) through the use of genomic sequence data; yet, challenges remain in the interpretation of DNA variants.Population-level DNA variant databases are available, and it is possible to estimate the number of newborns who would be flagged as having a risk for a genetic disease (inclu
