Predicting the incidence of cancer: Does natural selection pick holographic networks?
Director's Seminar Series Maintenance of function in many tissues in adult animals requires controlled somatic stem cell replication. The vast majority of these replication events are uneventful, as there are multiple levels of quality control: DNA damage repair mechanisms, paracrine signaling and the extracellular matrix, the immune system, and likely others that have not been uncovered. Our work has modeled tissue development and homeostasis processes in a variety of tissues: adipose tissue, beta cells in the islets of Langerhans, the development of the overall endocrine pancreas, and liver regeneration after partial h...

Aquaporin water channels - from transfusion medicine to malaria
NIH Director’s Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series Biochemical analysis of the Rhesus blood group antigen led to the serendipitous discovery of AQP1, the first molecular water channel. Found throughout nature, aquaporin water channels confer high water permeability to cell membranes. AQP1 has been characterized biophysically, and the atomic structure of AQP1 is known. Identification of the Colton blood group antigen on the extracellular domain of AQP1 allowed identification of rare individuals who are AQP1-null and manifest a subclinical form of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Thirteen homologous proteins exist in humans...

Mellick’s Multimedia EduBlog: Flesh-Eating Vasculitis from Cocaine Adulterant-Video 1 of 2
FDA withdrew levamisole from the human market in 1999. Once used to treat cancer, various skin conditions, and immunological renal diseases, this veterinary medicine has found a fairly widespread role as an adulterant in illicit cocaine since 2003. This video from Dr. Larry Mellick shows the devastating effects it can have on cocaine users. Find more information in his vlog at http://bit.ly/Mellick. (Source: Emergency Medicine News - Video)
