Methods for identity testing are described that enable extraction of DNA from biological samples, determination of the quantity of human DNA, and genetic analyses of the materials using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) typing and/or amplified fragment length polymorphism (AMP-FLP) typing of PCR products. The salient features of the procedures are simplicity, manual typing, nonradioactive chemiluminescent assays or silver staining for detection, and low cost. Most application-oriented laboratories involved in forensic and/or paternity testing should be able to implement these procedures.

Controlling Microparticle Aspect Ratio via Photolithography for Injectable Granular Hydrogel Formation and Cell Delivery.

Granular hydrogels are injectable and inherently porous biomaterials assembled through the packing of microparticles. These particles typically have a symmetric and spherical shape. However, recent studies have shown that asymmetric particles with high aspect ratios, such as fibers and rods, can significantly improve the mechanics, structure, and cell-guidance ability of granular hydrogels.

Understanding how corticostriatal circuits mediate behavioral selection and initiation in a naturalistic setting is critical to understanding behavior choice and execution in unconstrained situations. The central striatum (CS) is well poised to play an important role in these spontaneous processes. Using fiber photometry and optogenetics, we identify a role for CS in grooming initiation.

Background: The emergence of blood-based biomarkers offers a cost-effective and less invasive alternative to established neuroimaging and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers. Newly developed fluid biomarkers, including N-terminal tau fragment (NT1), have shown promise for identifying individuals at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Evidence has shown NT1 may be more abundant than full-length tau across the AD continuum and has high sensitivity and specificity to separate cognitively normal (CN) individuals from those with mild cognitive impaired (MCI) and AD in discovery and replication cohorts.

Background: While numerous blood biomarkers have been proposed for Alzheimer's disease (AD), only a few have demonstrated definitive diagnostic value. Recently, a set of phosphorylated Tau proteins, particularly pT217, have emerged as promising candidates with superior diagnostic performance. Given the development of pT217 antibodies by major global pharmaceutical companies, our goal is to create the best-in-class pT217 antibody, establishing it as the gold standard for diagnostics.

University of São Paulo Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil.
Background: The Down Syndrome (DS), also referred to as trisomy of chromosome 21, is a prevalent cause of intellectual disability and also contributes to the acceleration of aging, among other developmental and health concerns. Certain pathological characteristics shared by DS and Alzheimer's Disease (AD) indicate similar commonalities. This study aims to unravel the relationship between the canonical Wnt/pathway, the amyloid precursor protein processing, the telomere shortening in DS individuals.
