Lysosome activation clears aggregates and enhances quiescent neural stem cell activation during aging

…, A McKay, EA Pollina, BW Dulken, X Zhao, RW Yeo… - Science, 2018 - science.org
In the adult brain, the neural stem cell (NSC) pool comprises quiescent and activated populations
with distinct roles. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that quiescent and activated NSCs …

[PDF][PDF] Aging and rejuvenation of neural stem cells and their niches

PN Negredo, RW Yeo, A Brunet - Cell stem cell, 2020 - cell.com
Aging has a profound and devastating effect on the brain. Old age is accompanied by
declining cognitive function and enhanced risk of brain diseases, including cancer and …

[PDF][PDF] Neuronal CRTC-1 governs systemic mitochondrial metabolism and lifespan via a catecholamine signal

K Burkewitz, I Morantte, HJM Weir, R Yeo, Y Zhang… - Cell, 2015 - cell.com
Low energy states delay aging in multiple species, yet mechanisms coordinating energetics

Genome-wide studies of verbal declarative memory in nondemented older people: the Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology consortium

…, K Petrovic, M Fornage, G Chauhan, R Yeo… - Biological …, 2015 - Elsevier
Background Memory performance in older persons can reflect genetic influences on cognitive
function and dementing processes. We aimed to identify genetic contributions to verbal …

[HTML][HTML] Males induce premature demise of the opposite sex by multifaceted strategies

LN Booth, C Shi, C Tantilert, RW Yeo, JW Miklas… - Nature Aging, 2022 - nature.com
Interactions between the sexes negatively impact health in many species. In Caenorhabditis,
males shorten the lifespan of the opposite sex—hermaphrodites or females. Here we use …

Self-sperm induce resistance to the detrimental effects of sexual encounters with males in hermaphroditic nematodes

10.7554/eLife.46418.001 Sexual interactions have a potent influence on health in several
species, including mammals. Previous work in C. elegans identified strategies used by males …

In vitro and in vivo CRISPR-Cas9 screens reveal drivers of aging in neural stem cells of the brain

TJ Ruetz, CM Kashiwagi, B Morton, RW Yeo… - bioRxiv, 2021 - biorxiv.org
Aging impairs the ability of neural stem cells to transition from quiescence to activation (proliferation)
in the adult mammalian brain. Neural stem cell (NSC) functional decline results in …

Improving few-shot learning-based protein engineering with evolutionary sampling

MZ Jawaid, RW Yeo, A Gautam, TB Gainous, DO Hart… - bioRxiv, 2023 - biorxiv.org
