Genetic drivers of cancer can be dysregulated through epigenetic modifications of DNA. Although the critical role of DNA 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in the regulation of transcription is recognize...
Plasticity in the brain is very extensive due to the brain’s parallel architecture and synaptic reorganization capabilities. Because neuronal populations are typically in stable low e...
In the past two decades a small number of infrequently dividing cells have been proposed as the source of multi-drug resistance during cancer treatment. These cells identified by their expres...
To date the anatomic extent of tumor (TNM-classification) has been by far the most important factors to predict the prognosis of cancer patients. However, this classification provides limited...

Exosomes are nano-scale lipid membrane-enclosed extracellular vesicles that form in the cellular endosomal system but are released outside the cell. These virus-sized “fat balls”...
Genomics and metagenomics have become ubiquitous research efforts. Here we will show details of the development of physical, computational, and even space-based standards for metagenomi...
Induced pluripotent stem cells derived from patient cells have emerged as complementary tools to study human neurological disorders. Neurxstem Inc has generated human iPSC-derived synth...
