        date: 2020-12-21
       words: 3621
      flesch: 51
     summary: By determining whether such a signaling pathway exists within microglia, it is possible that this pathway could be therapeutically targeted in the future with the hope of regulating the runaway inflammatory response associated with brain injury. Fully understanding the mechanisms behind the body’s neuroinflammatory response will not only allow for the development of targeted treatments for TBI, but also will likely allow for better treatments for those with neurodegenerative diseases (Ransohoff, 2016) and other diseases that may have a neuroinflammatory component such as diabetes (Wang et al 2014).

     summary: Among the contributing factors for higher Rutgers campus score were the wide variety of indoor and outdoor amenities (e.g. pool, basketball courts, roller hockey rink, racquetball court), several intramural sports, health/wellness activities and fitness classes. However, Rutgers scores were lower in categories like fast-food and sit- down restaurants; healthy snacks and beverages available in vending machines; walking and biking supports; and the policies to support healthy eating.

     summary: This is supported by previous studies that found the effects of ω-3 PUFAs varied depending on the tissue in question, with reduced UPS activity in cachexia cancer cells and increased UPS activity in HPV-infected cancer cells.11 In the intestine, ω-3 PUFAs or their derived eicosanoids may promote UPS activity, or ω-6 PUFAs or their derived eicosanoids may inhibit it. Therefore, GFP fluorescence in animals expressing UbG76V-GFP is inversely proportional to the level of UPS activity.

     summary: Similarly, Rutgers writing centers work to improve student writing skills without acknowledging why they are successful in the first place. And, while there are methods that bring both environments closer together, such as the course-embedded model, maintaining the distinct identity of each environment is crucial in giving students autonomy.

     summary: A possible alternative to large craft is using a swarm of smaller craft made to accomplish the same goals while mitigating some of the drawbacks large craft face. In the context of exploring dense and/or extreme en- vironments in space, many logistic and economic problems faced by large craft due to their size and centralized nature will not affect a swarm.

     summary: We found that a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control scheme, with disturbance-estimating capabilities, was effective in maintaining satellite position and ori- entation during the operation of the onboard ro- botic manipulator. It is desirable to reduce the effects of robotic manipulator disturbances on satellite position and attitude using an attitude control system (ACS).

       title: Changing Verbal Label Assignments Selects the Memory System for Responses in an Immediate Visual Recognition Task
        date: 2021-10-07
       words: 5190
      flesch: 53
     summary: Even though Kang et al. (2021) confirmed that the assignment of verbal labels to re- sponse keys in different spatial locations determines which memory system gets selected for the task—not the assignment of verbal labels to different hands— there is still no clear answer as to why the two re- sponse assignment conditions result in the selection of different memory systems. It follows from this line of reasoning that same responses ought to be the slowest since the participant presumably must compare all four test string items to all four study string items to deter- mine that they are the same.

       title: The Role of Autophagy in Phosphatidylglycerol Facilitated Cholesterol Clearance from the Endolysosomal System of NPC-1 Deficient Cells
        date: 2021-10-07
       words: 3769
      flesch: 59
     summary: This is because the limiting membrane of a lysosome is covered in a sugar coat called glycocalyx and it is believed that the luminal domains of the NPC-1 protein are required for cho- lesterol to be able to penetrate through the gly- cocalyx and exit the lysosome.[11,12] Increasing the LBPA levels in NPC-1 deficient cells have been found to result in a significant amount of cholesterol clear- ance because the LBPA can still interact with the NPC-2 protein.[6] Exogenous treatment of LBPA’s precursor phosphatidylglycerol, or PG, also results in cholesterol clearance because the PG can go through its biosynthetic pathway to make LBPA.[13] Our preliminary data shows that PG treat- ment of NPC-1 deficient cells facilitates autophago- some fusion with the lysosome and subsequent au- tophagic flux. Since NPC-1 deficient cells block au- tophagy and PG helps it resume, we are interested in seeing if autolysosome formation and autophagic flux are involved in cholesterol clearance from late endosomes when these cells are treated with PG.

       title: “Reminisces of a Dead World”: Neoclassical Impulses in Stockhausen’s Gesang der Jünglinge
        date: 2021-10-07
       words: 5688
      flesch: 56
     summary: However, Stockhausen’s Gesang der Jünglinge, de- spite its reputation for technical innovation, bears a strong connection to prior musical traditions. In this regard, Stockhausen resembled the neoclassical school of composers that sought to accommodate antiquated musical materials within a modern con- text.

     summary: Besides VDR motifs, the colon- enriched peak set samples also exhibit HOXB13, FIGURE 7: VDR MOTIF PRESENCE IN VDR CHIP-SEQ PEAK SET SAMPLES VDR motif was the top transcription factor motif identified in all of the composite VDR ChIP-seq peak sets. Each pair of forward and reverse adapter-trimmed read FASTQ files was aligned to mouse genome assembly mm9 using Bowtie2.[10,15] Each alignment SAM file was converted to an align- ment BAM file using the SAMtools suite.[13] A composite VDR ChIP-seq alignment BAM file was generated for each cell type by combining each set of replicate VDR ChIP-seq alignment BAM files using the merge utility in the SAMtools suite.

     summary: The de- fective reabsorption of cystine from the kidneys into the bloodstream causes its supersaturation in urine and the formation of cystine stones in the kidneys, bladder, and ureters (Sahota et al., 2019). Cystine stones are thought to form by free solution crystallization, the process by which super- saturated solutions transform into solids (Coe et al., 2010).

     summary: This paper ex- plores existing SSB excise taxes that have been im- plemented in recent years, focusing especially on Philadelphia’s tax as a case study for examining the behavioral changes associated with SSB taxes and the management of SSB tax revenue. It then sug- gests that SSB tax revenue be directly funneled into the subsidization of fruits and vegetables to maxim- ize the obesity-fighting potential of these relatively novel excise taxes.

     summary: Guided in part by Benjamin’s essay, I will present my own English translation of Rainer Maria Rilke’s German language poem “Der Panther,” which does not look to translate words and phrases in isolation but distributes themes found in Rilke’s German throughout the translation. Drawing on this concept, in my translation, I attempt to reproduce Rilke’s portrayal of the panther not by finding Eng- lish words that replicate German words, but by let- ting the semantics of German words be distributed throughout my entire translation.

     summary: Shopping malls should be rec- ognized for their ability to facilitate social connec- tions and community during the late 20th century in a space as atomized as the suburbs. Fond memories of the evocative sensory experience of mall shopping, combined with the sense of community found in many of these spaces, has outweighed moral panics about the mall and its denizens.
