Speech-like cerebral activity in profoundly deaf people processing signed languages: implications for the neural basis of human language.

abstract：:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have a unique capacity to undergo self-renewal and multi-lineage differentiation to provide a lifetime supply of mature blood cells. By using conditional knockout technology, we disrupted the c-myb proto-oncogene specifically in adult bone marrow (BM) to demonstrate that this transcript...

abstract：:Oxidative stress plays a central role in many human diseases and in aging. In Caenorhabditis elegans the SKN-1 protein induces phase II detoxification gene transcription, a conserved oxidative stress response, and is required for oxidative stress resistance and longevity. Oxidative stress induces SKN-1 to accumulate i...
