    Abstract: A method of measuring the concentration of a magnetic material in an object using magnetic resonance imaging comprising administering magnetic material to the object; obtaining a set of T1-weighted and T2-weighted images of the object in order to determine a background magnetic resonance imaging signal intensity and measurements of the background nuclear magnetic relaxation times (T1, T2) of the object without magnetic material; and obtaining a set of T1-weighted and T2-weighted magnetic resonance images of the object with magnetic materials added; measuring effect of magnetic material on the relaxation times; and converting the T1-weighted and T2-weighted images into a set of contrast images which are subtracted from each other to yield a contrast difference image proportional to the concentration of the magnetic material.

    Abstract: An epigenome editing system generally includes three exogenous coding regions. The first exogenous coding region encodes a first polypeptide that includes an epigenetic editing domain and a domain that, in the presence of an inducer, forms a complex with a second polypeptide. The second exogenous coding region encodes the second polypeptide, which includes a dCas9 domain and a domain that, in the presence of the inducer, forms a complex with the first polypeptide. The third exogenous coding region encodes an sgRNA sequence that targets the dCas9 domain to a genomic locus.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to substituted stilbenes and dienones which exhibit unexpected dual activity, as inhibitors of NFκB and as agonists (activators) of Nrf2. In particular, these compounds show dual activity and makes them particularly useful in the treatment of inflammation, including chronic inflammation and a number of related chronic disease states and conditions, including neurological diseases, including Alzheimer's, Alzheimer's prodrome and mild cognitive impairment, and other diseases and conditions, such as Parkinson's disease, depression, bipolar disorders and autism spectrum disorders. Compounds, pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment are described.
