Article Abstract

Oligonucleotide integrity is a critical quality attribute for many new therapeutic modalities. Current assays often measure attributes such as length using capillary electrophoresis or liquid chromatography. The length is then corroborated with sequencing data to ensure oligonucleotide quality. An orthogonal measure to these classical separations is to measure intact mass, which traditional mass spectrometry cannot. Herein, we report the use of mass photometry to directly measure RNA length using RNA ladders as a calibrant.

Association of Energy, Macronutrients, and Fiber Intakes with Bone Health in Adolescent Athletes.

September 2025

Department of Physical Education, Center for Health and Sports Sciences, Santa Catarina State University, Rua Pascoal Simone, 358, Coqueiros, Florianópolis, State of Santa Catarina, CEP: 88080-350, Brazil.

This study investigated the association between energy and macronutrient intake and bone health in 63 adolescents of both sexes who participated in volleyball, track and field, or swimming. Bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD) of the total body less head (TBLH), lumbar spine (L1-L4), and femoral neck were assessed using DXA. Bone geometry parameters, including cross-sectional area (CSA), cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), and section modulus, were estimated.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases are critical enzymes contributing to regulation of numerous cellular processes, including DNA repair and chromatin remodelling. Within the PARP family, PARP1 and PARP2 primarily facilitate PARylation in the nucleus, particularly responding to genotoxic stress. The activity of PARPs is influenced by the nature of DNA damage and multiple protein partners, with HPF1 being the important one.

With an increasing aging population, the prevalence of chronic comorbidities is on the rise. The potential relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and osteoporosis has garnered significant attention. Most studies examining the association between these two conditions have relied on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD).

Background: The incidence of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fragility fractures is increasing due to demographic changes. Therefore, early diagnosis is desirable in order to preserve bone health and prevent low-trauma fractures. Opportunistic screening for osteoporosis by frequently performed computed tomography scans could offer a potential solution.

ObjectiveTo evaluate how body mass index, waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio, and waist-to-height ratio reflect visceral adipose tissue as measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and how these associations differ by sex and age in a Qatari adult population.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study of 5897 Qatari adults aged 18-88 years from the Qatar BioBank, we assessed the correlation between anthropometric indices and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry-derived visceral adipose tissue percentage. Analyses included sex-stratified Spearman's correlations and linear regression models adjusted for age.
