TranscriptomicsMicroarray analyses of laser-captured hippocampus reveal distinct gray and white matter signatures associated with incipient Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder that threatens to reach epidemic proportions as our population ages. Although much research has examined molecular pathways associated with AD, relatively few studies have focused on critical early stages. Our prior microarray stud...

TranscriptomicsDeep Sleep and Parietal Cortex Gene Expression Changes are Related to Cognitive Deficits with Age
Background: Age-related cognitive deficits negatively affect quality of life and can presage serious neurodegenerative disorders. Despite sleep disruption’s well-recognized negative influence on cognition, and its prevalence with age, surprisingly few studies have tested sleep’s relationship to cogn...

TranscriptomicsThe Influence of Sleep Deprivation on Hippocampal CA1 Gene Expression: Relation to Stress and Aging
Sleep deprivation (SD) in young adults is associated with metabolic, stress and cognitive responses that are also characteristic of brain aging. Given that sleep architecture changes with age, including increased fragmentation and decreased slow wave activity, it seems reasonable to investigate pote...

TranscriptomicsAutotaxin and its product lysophosphatidic acid suppress brown adipose differentiation and promote diet-induced obesity in mice
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a thermogenic organ that dissipates stored energy as heat to maintain body temperature in infants and small mammals. This process may also provide protection from development of diet-induced obesity. We found that the bioactive lipid mediator lysophosphatidic acid (LP...
