CNS Therapeutics That Target Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinoses and Thioesterase Deficiency Disorders

Abstract: Clinically known as Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinoses (NCL), Batten disease, is a rare neuron killing disease and one of the lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs). It is associated with a mutation or lack of palmitoyl-protein thioesterase-1 (PPT1) gene. It manifests very early in a child's life causing absence of brain activity as early as 4 years...

Method for 3D Nonlinear Structured Illumination Super-resolution Imaging

Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a super-resolution microscopy method that is faster, easier to use, and has less artifacts than current super-resolution methods. The result is a 3D dual-color stimulated emission depletion (STED) nonlinear structured illumination (NL-SIM) microscope. Using a combination of low coherent light and...

Vehicle safety device for active train crossing detection and driver notification

Most level railroad crossings in the United States do not have active safety mechanisms such as gates, warning bells, or flashing lights to warn drivers of active train crossings. Furthermore, distractions and poor visibility can inhibit awareness of an approaching train. This makes level railroad crossings particularly dangerous and results in hundreds...
