    Transcriptional activation of USP16 gene expression by NFκB signaling

    Ubiquitin Specific Peptidase 16 (USP16) has been reported to contribute to somatic stem-cell defects in Down syndrome. However, how this gene being regulated is largely unknown. To study the mechanism underlying

    Traumatic Brain Injury Alters the Metabolism and Facilitates Alzheimer’s Disease in a Murine Model

    A majority of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) cases are sporadic without known cause. People who suffered from traumatic brain injury (TBI) are more likely to develop neurodegeneration and cognitive impairments. Howe...
