Dr. J. Bernadette Moore is a senior lecturer at the University of Surrey who focuses her research on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Her work uses computational modeling to examine the molecular signaling networks in the liver and their effects on metabolism. This novel approach allows for computer simulation of these networks, which has not been done before. Her ultimate goal is to help create a fully functional computer model of the human body, starting with an "in-silico liver." In her research, Dr. Moore also hopes to further understanding of how diet, specifically different types of sugars, affect liver signaling at a physiological level.
The cell and its evolution
This document discusses recent research on manipulating cells and their evolution for medical purposes. It describes how normal cells can be reprogrammed in the laboratory into specialized cells using a 3D cell culture system that simulates tissue environments. This allows progress in gene therapy, regenerative medicine, and immunotherapy. The document also discusses how targeting senescent cells and their products may help delay or treat age-related stem cell dysfunction and metabolic diseases by reducing impairments to fat tissue stem cells and fat tissue from proteins released by senescent cells. Induced pluripotent stem cells are also discussed as modified adult cells that can help revolutionize stem cell biology and development of regenerative medicine therapies.

Nrf2: A Guardian of Healthspan and Gatekeeper of Species Longevity
This document summarizes a symposium discussing the role of the transcription factor Nrf2 in aging and longevity. Nrf2 regulates over 200 genes involved in cytoprotection, metabolism of toxins, oxidative stress response, and protein stability/degradation. Constitutively high expression and activation of Nrf2 and its downstream targets are observed in long-lived species and models of extended lifespan, suggesting Nrf2 plays a critical role in determining species longevity and regulating the aging process by protecting against age-related diseases and stressors. The document hypothesizes that Nrf2 is a "master regulator" of aging.

This document discusses the evaluation of recombinant clotting factor VIII concentrates. It analyzes the heterogeneity and purity of different recombinant factor VIII preparations before and after thrombin digestion using techniques like SDS-PAGE, 2DE electrophoresis, and gel digestion. The results show bands corresponding to truncated recombinant factor VIII as well as the presence of contaminating proteins like haptoglobin and albumin. Thrombin cleavage was found to remove bands in the SDS-PAGE of the inactive factor VIII pro-cofactor. The conclusions state that 2DE is better than SDS-PAGE for assessing purity and that the use of recombinant factor VIII does not rule out contaminants.

CSU_Press_release-Diabetes
Research at Colorado State University has discovered that oxygen starvation causes a shift in metabolism that leads to diabetes over time. Using a Russian computer algorithm, the researcher found that healthy individuals' genes begin expressing themselves differently under metabolic stress, switching from aerobic to anaerobic pathways and eventually functioning as if under hypoxia. This lack of oxygen triggers metabolic changes that can progress to type 2 diabetes. Exercise is important for developing new blood vessels to supply cells with needed oxygen and preventing this metabolic shift.
Proteins & cell cycle ppt
This document discusses research findings about the roles of two proteins in the cell cycle regulation process. It was found that the JNK protein, long known to help cells respond to stress, also controls the cell cycle. Additionally, the histone H1 protein, typically viewed as stabilizing chromatin structure, was found to be phosphorylated in a way that is associated with changes in gene activity. These new discoveries about additional functions of proteins in the cell cycle could help direct future research towards preventing diseases like cancer.
Hallmarks of Aging summary
The paper proposes 9 hallmarks of aging based on accumulated cellular damage over time: 1) genomic instability, 2) telomere attrition, 3) epigenetic alterations, 4) loss of proteostasis, 5) deregulated nutrient sensing, 6) mitochondrial dysfunction, 7) cellular senescence, 8) stem cell exhaustion, and 9) altered intercellular communication. Some hallmarks like cellular senescence are beneficial at low levels but harmful in excess. The hallmarks represent primary damage, compensatory responses turned pathological over time, and integration of various damage types systemically.

Central dogma of genetic information
The documents discuss new research challenging the idea of the selfish gene, proposing that evolution is instead driven by the selfish ribosome. The ribosome contains the machinery for translating genetic information from DNA into proteins. Research suggests the ribosome was central to the origin of the first cell and its complex structure makes even minor mutations highly lethal for viruses. Studies of the central dogma of genetics and how life began are important for advancing medicine by providing new perspectives to approach genetic problems and find cures for diseases.
Molecular biology
The document summarizes several studies on DNA replication and the molecular machinery involved. It describes how researchers used tools like molecular biology and biochemistry to slow down and "freeze" the replication process at intermediate steps. This allowed them to observe conformational changes in proteins like the origin recognition complex (ORC) as it recruits the helicase enzyme to unwind DNA. Cryo-electron microscopy was then used to capture 3D structures of the protein components and reveal how they interact during replication initiation. The studies provide new insights into this critical cellular process.

The document discusses the time scale of evolution and some evolutionary principles. It outlines the major eras in geological time stretching back over 4 billion years. While the earliest fossils date to the Cambrian period 540 million years ago, life likely emerged in the Pre-Cambrian era. The document presents diagrams showing the hypothesized relationships and variations in abundance of the major phyla of life over this time period. It aims to provide context for discussing the biochemistry and genetics of different species and estimating rates of genetic modification between species.
Modulation_of_autophagy_as_a_therapeutic
This document summarizes recent research on the role of autophagy in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis and its potential as a therapeutic target. Autophagy is a cellular degradation pathway important for neuronal homeostasis that declines with age, a major risk factor for AD. Evidence suggests autophagic dysfunction may contribute to AD pathology through impaired clearance of amyloid-β protein aggregates and tau. Modulating autophagy may therefore help treat AD. However, the pathway may be less "druggable" at late disease stages. The authors propose early-stage intervention trials to target autophagy as a potential AD therapy.
Biology, medicine tool
Biology and medicine have a close relationship where biology serves as an important tool for medicine. Studies on cellular metabolism and the role of proteins in cell division have helped further our understanding of diseases from the beginning. Research on a single protein that controls genetic networks essential for sperm development found that without this protein, sperm development is abnormal. A separate study on mitochondrial diseases found they are becoming more frequent and costly to healthcare systems, highlighting the need for improved prevention and treatment strategies. Advances in understanding basic biological mechanisms allow for more effective diagnosis and management of illnesses.
