Cell proliferation and vascularization in mouse models of pituitary hormone deficiency
TL;DR: The authors performed histological analysis of Pit1-and Prop1-deficient dwarf mouse pituitaries throughout fetal and postnatal development, and found that Pit1deficient mice first exhibit pituitary hypoplasia after birth, primarily caused by reduced cell proliferation, although there is some apoptosis.
Single-session and multisession CyberKnife radiosurgery for spine metastases—University of Pittsburgh and Georgetown University experience
Dwight E. Heron,Malolan S. Rajagopalan,Brandon Stone,Steven A. Burton,Peter C. Gerszten,Xinxin Dong,Gregory J. Gagnon,Annette E. Quinn,Fraser Henderson +8 more
TL;DR: While an SS approach provides greater early pain control and equivalent toxicity, an MS approach achieves greater tumor control and less need for retreatment in long-term survivors.
The effect of moderate impact exercise on skeletal integrity in master athletes
TL;DR: Findings suggest that moderate impact exercise contributes to skeletal integrity in older age.
Intraesophageal Manganese Superoxide Dismutase-Plasmid Liposomes Ameliorates Novel Total-Body and Thoracic Radiation Sensitivity of NOS1-/- Mice
Malolan S. Rajagopalan,Brandon Stone,Jean-Claude M. Rwigema,Umar Salimi,Michael W. Epperly,Julie P. Goff,Darcy Franicola,Tracy Dixon,Shaonan Cao,Xichen Zhang,Bettina M. Buchholz,Anthony J. Bauer,Serah Choi,Christopher J. Bakkenist,Hong Wang,Joel S. Greenberger +15 more
TL;DR: In NOS1−/− mice, MnSOD-PL significantly increased survival after both thoracic and total-body irradiation, and may be related to the developmental esophageal enteric neuronal innervation abnormalities described in these mice.

Screening of Antimicrobial Agents for In Vitro Radiation Protection and Mitigation Capacity, Including those Used in Supportive Care Regimens for Bone Marrow Transplant Recipients*
Michael W. Epperly,Darcy Franicola,Donna Shields,Jean-Claude M. Rwigema,Brandon Stone,Xichen Zhang,William H. McBride,George E. Georges,Peter Wipf,Joel S. Greenberger +9 more
TL;DR: The radiation dose-modifying effect of some antibiotics, but not those currently used in the supportive care (antibiotic/antifungal regimens) for marrow transplant patients, may act as radiation damage mitigators for hematopoietic cells as well as decreasing the growth and inflammatory response to microbial pathogens.
