Unveiling a Biomarker Signature of Meningioma: the Need for a Panel of Genomic, Epigenetic, Proteomic, and RNA Biomarkers to Advance Diagnosis and Prognosis
( MDPI , 2023 , Unpublished Work)Meningiomas are the most prevalent primary intracranial tumors. The majority are benign but can undergo dedifferentiation in grades classified from I to III. Meningiomas tremendous variability in tumor behavior and slow ... -
Methodological considerations for identifying multiple plasma proteins associated with all-cause mortality in a population-based prospective cohort
( Nature Research , 2021 , Article)Novel methods to characterize the plasma proteome has made it possible to examine a wide range of proteins in large longitudinal cohort studies, but the complexity of the human proteome makes it difficult to identify robust ... -
Differential response of oxidative and glycolytic skeletal muscle fibers to mesterolone
( Nature Research , 2021 , Article)Oxidative and glycolytic muscle fibers differ in their ultrastructure, metabolism, and responses to physiological stimuli and pathological insults. We examined whether these fibers respond differentially to exogenous ... -
