Method of Treating Obesity-Induced Glucose Intolerance and Liver Fibrosis (UCLA Case No. 2021-323)
UCLA researchers in the School of Engineering have discovered a novel method to treat obesity-induced glucose intolerance and liver fibrosis. BACKGROUND: The CDC reports that 41.9% of adults ages 20 and over are obese. An increased incidence of obesity also increases the rates of comorbidities such at type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), non-alcoholic...

MEDREX (Case No. 2024-244)
Summary: UCLA researchers have developed a new software package to reconcile medication lists between different electronic health records. Background: Reconciliation is a crucial process that ensures patients’ medication lists are accurate. This process is especially important for patients with memory impairments, who may be more vulnerable...

DNA Methylation Barriers
In normal differentiated cells, most of the genome is densely methylated, except CpG islands near promoters of actively transcribed genes. Maintaining this boundary between unmethylated promoter-associated and adjacent methylated regions is crucial as loss of segregation can lead to disease. Unfortunately, it is not clear where these boundaries are,...
