Ips Progression a Decade Devoted

Predictors of Carotid Thickness and Plaque Progression During a Decade

Inherited heart disease – what can we expect from the second decade of human iPS cell research?

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were first generated 10 years ago. Their ability to differentiate into any somatic cell type of the body including cardiomyocytes has already made them a valuable resource for modelling cardiac disease and drug screening. Initially human iPSCs were used mostly to model known disease phenotypes; more recently, and despite a number of recognised shortcomings...

Progression of lumbar disc degeneration over a decade: a heritability study

OBJECTIVES Lumbar disc degeneration (LDD) is prevalent, age-related and contributes to low back pain. Cross-sectional LDD as determined by MRI scan is known to be highly heritable. The authors postulated that the rate of progression might also be controlled by genetic factors. METHODS A 10-year follow-up of MRI-determined LDD was performed in 234 pairs of twin volunteers in the UK and Austral...
