  • Social Inequalities in Health in Nonhuman Primates

    The Biology of the Gradient

    Edited by Carol A. Shively, Mark E. Wilson ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    This book provides a comprehensive look at nonhuman primate social inequalities as models for health differences associated with socioeconomic status in humans. The benefit of the socially-housed monkey model is that it provides the complexity of hierarchical structure and rank affiliation, i.e. both negative and positive aspects of social status. At the same time, nonhuman primates are more ... Read more

  • Oxidative Neural Injury

    Edited by Sigrid C. Veasey ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Twenty-five years ago, Earl R. Stadtman, PhD discovered that specific enzymes regulating metabolism can be inactivated by oxidation [1]. He later showed that age-related oxidative modification contributes, at least in part, to age-related loss of function of the enzymes [2, 3]. Dr. Stadtman broke the ground for a new field of study to discover how oxidative stress contributes in significant ways ... Read more
