Genetic mutations that disrupt open reading frames and cause translation termination are frequent causes of human disease difficult to treat due protein truncation mRNA degradation by nonsense-mediated decay, leaving few options for traditional drug targeting. Splice-switching antisense oligonucleotides offer a potential therapeutic solution diseases caused disrupted inducing exon skipping correct the frame. We have recently reported on an exon-skipping oligonucleotide has effect in mouse...
Abstract Background Prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) can produce deficits in a wide range of cognitive functions but is especially detrimental to behaviors requiring accurate spatial information processing. In open field environments, behavior organized such that animals establish “home bases” marked by long stops focused around one location. Progressions away from the home base are circuitous and slow, while progressions directed toward non‐circuitous fast. The impact PAE on organization has...
The proposed mission to Mars will expose astronauts space radiation that is known adversely affect cognition and tasks rely on fine sensorimotor function. Space has also been shown the microglial neurogenic responses in central nervous system (CNS). We recently reported a low dose of 5 cGy 600 MeV/n 28Si results impaired skilled motor behavior adult rats. Since these at least part proper functioning striatum, we examined striatal cells same subjects. Using morphometric analysis, found...
ABSTRACTThe shift to online learning due the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated existing inequalities and highlighted failures of U.S. higher education institutions serve their students' needs. The purpose this exploratory quantitative survey study was examine differences in perceptions academic financial challenges encountered during pandemic. Results by generation status, gender, intersections. Insight into these sub-populations can shed light on ways reorganize educational structures provide...
