Identification of pseudolysin (lasB) as an aciduric gluten-degrading enzyme with high therapeutic potential for celiac disease
(Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc., 2015-06)OBJECTIVES Immunogenic gluten proteins implicated in celiac disease (CD) largely resist degradation by human digestive enzymes. Here we pursued the isolation of gluten-degrading organisms from human feces, aiming at ... -
Development and validation of objective, passive, dietary assessment method for estimating food and nutrient intake in households in low and middle-income countries (LMICs): a study protocol
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020-02)BACKGROUND: Undernutrition is a major concern in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), but the full extent of the problem remains unknown largely due to the lack of accurate assessment methods. OBJECTIVE: This study ... -
A lesion and connectivity-based hierarchical model of chronic aphasia recovery dissociates patients and healthy controls
(2019)Traditional models of left hemisphere stroke recovery propose that reactivation of remaining ipsilesional tissue is optimal for language processing whereas reliance on contralesional right hemisphere homologues is less ... -
Changes in task-based effective connectivity in language networks following rehabilitation in post-stroke patients with aphasia
(FRONTIERS RESEARCH FOUNDATION, 2015-06-09)In this study, we examined regions in the left and right hemisphere language network that were altered in terms of the underlying neural activation and effective connectivity subsequent to language rehabilitation. Eight ... -
Relationship between self-administered cues and rehabilitation outcomes in individuals with aphasia: understanding individual responsiveness to a technology-based rehabilitation program
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2017-02-01)An advantage of rehabilitation administered on computers or tablets is that the tasks can be self-administered and the cueing required to complete the tasks can be monitored. Though there are many types of cueing, few ... -
Klotho pathways, myelination disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and epigenetic drugs
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., 2020)In this review we outline a rationale for identifying neuroprotectants aimed at inducing endogenous Klotho activity and expression, which is epigenetic action, by definition. Such an approach should promote remyelination ... -
Epigenetic treatment of dermatologic disorders
(Wiley, 2019-09)Healthy skin protects us against a multitude of insults but injured or maladapted skin can lead to infection, inflammation or worse. Fortunately, naturally occurring bioactive products, many commonly found in olive oil and ... -
Validation of sensor-based food intake detection by multicamera video observation in an unconstrained environment.
(2019-03-13)Video observations have been widely used for providing ground truth for wearable systems for monitoring food intake in controlled laboratory conditions; however, video observation requires participants be confined to a ... -
Pharmaceutically modified subtilisins withstand acidic conditions and effectively degrade gluten in vivo
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-05-16)Detoxification of gluten immunogenic epitopes is a promising strategy for the treatment of celiac disease. Our previous studies have shown that these epitopes can be degraded in vitro by subtilisin enzymes derived from ... -
Relationship between stress and healthy lifestyle factors of college students
(Paris Scholar Publishing, 2019-01-01)OBJECTIVES: We assessed the correlation between college students' perceived stress (PS) and healthy lifestyle factors (HLFs) in this cross-sectional study. METHODS: Data were collected from 1396 undergraduates enrolled in ...
