Frontally Mediated Inhibitory Processing and White Matter Microstructure: Age and Alcoholism Effects
This study aims to evaluate the effect of alcoholism and age on δ and θ oscillations and the relationship between these oscillations and measures of white matter microstructural integrity.

Antibody Response to Polyhistidine-Tagged Peptide and Protein Antigens Attached to Liposomes Via Lipid-Linked Nitrilotriacetic Acid in Mice
We evaluate noncovalent metal chelation via nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) as a nondestructive method to attach peptide and protein antigens to liposomes.

Remote Semantic Memory for Public Figures in Hiv Infection, Alcoholism, and Their Comorbidity
We examined component processes of remote semantic memory in HIV infection and chronic alcoholism in 4 subject groups using a modified version of the Presidents Test.

Activation of Cortical Interneurons During Sleep: An Anatomical Link to Homeostatic Sleep Regulation?
We propose that cortical nNOS neurons are positioned to influence neuronal activity across widespread brain areas.

Patent Ductus Arteriosus Ligation Alters Pulmonary Gene Expression in Preterm Baboons
Ibuprofen-induced ductus closure improves pulmonary mechanics and increases alveolar surface area in premature baboons compared with baboons with a persistent patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).

The Virulence of the Opportunistic Fungal Pathogen Aspergillus Fumigatus Requires Cooperation Between the Endoplasmic Reticulum-Associated Degradation Pathway (Erad) and the Unfolded Protein Response (Upr)
We examined the contribution of these integrated pathways to the growth and virulence of A. fumigatus, focusing on the ERAD protein DerA and the master regulator of the UPR, HacA.

Glutathione Peroxidase 4 Is Associated with Neuromelanin in Substantia Nigra and Dystrophic Axons in Putamen of Parkinson’s Brain
This study demonstrates an up-regulation of GPX4 in neurons of substantia nigra and association of this protein with dystrophic axons in striatum of Parkinson's brain, indicating a possible neuroprotective role.
