The Influence of a Specific Sprint Resisted Swimming Training Programme on the Intra-cyclic Velocity Variation of Young Female Front Crawl Swimmers by Ioannis K. Valkoumas, Vassilios Gourgoulis

“…After the intervention programme, the experimental group showed a significant increase in the mean swimming velocity, the stroke rate, the propulsive phase duration and the index of coordination, and a significant decrease in the non-propulsive phase duration, the total stroke duration and the IVV. These modifications could be considered a positive effect, helping the swimmers to become more efficient to overcome the inertial forces and to improve their swimming performance.…”

A Versatile Reporter Platform for Evaluating HDR- and NHEJ-Based Genome Editing in Airway Epithelial Cell Cultures Using an rAAV Vector by Soo Yeun Park, Zehua Feng, Xiujuan Zhang, Yinghua Tang, Donovan Richart, Kai E. Vorhies, Jianming Qiu, John F. Engelhardt, Ziying Yan

“…Therapeutic gene editing strategies utilize endogenous DNA repair pathways—nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) or homology-directed repair (HDR)—to introduce targeted genomic modifications. Because HDR is restricted to dividing cells, whereas NHEJ functions in both dividing and non-dividing cells, NHEJ-based approaches are better suited for in vivo gene editing in the largely post-mitotic airway epithelium. …”
