Nuclei sorting-based genome-wide CRISPR screens to identify novel regulators of hepatic insulin signalling by Martin Perez, E

“…To systematically study the insulin signalling network, we developed and validated a novel experimental pipeline that uses nuclei isolation followed by fluorescent activated nuclei sorting (FANS) as an approach for pooled CRISPR screening. We carried out nine genome-wide pooled CRISPR screens using nuclei isolated from hepatocytes under either starved, basal insulin or insulin resistance conditions. …”

Use of hormone replacement therapy and risk of breast cancer: nested case-control studies using the QResearch and CPRD databases by Vinogradova, Y, Coupland, C, Hippisley-Cox, J

“…In recent oestrogen only users, between three (in younger women) and eight (in older women) extra cases per 10 000 women years would be expected, and in oestrogen-progestogen users between nine and 36 extra cases per 10 000 women years. For past oestrogen-progestogen users, the results would suggest between two and eight extra cases per 10 000 women years. …”

In-silico trials with human modelling and simulation for guiding optimal stratification of atrial fibrillation patients to catheter ablation and pharmacological therapy by Dasí i Martinez, A

“…</p> <br> <p>Moreover, the ionic current substrate also influences the outcomes of catheter ablation therapy, although the latter is mainly determined by the presence of heterogeneities in tissue structure (i.e., presence of low voltage areas) and the bi-atrial size (i.e., left and right atrial volume). In fact, analysis of nine state-of-the-art catheter ablation strategies suggests that the assessment of the latter patient characteristics could guide stratification of AF patients to optimal ablation therapies.…”
