Adipogenic differentiation of hematopoietic lineage cells isolated from adipose tissue of humans

K. M. Gavin, B. Conrad, T. Sullivan, R. Vianzon, A. S. Acosta, W. M. Kohrt, D. J. Klemm

The paper shows human adipose tissue hematopoietic lineage cells can proliferate and differentiate into adipogenic and osteogenic lineages in vitro, supporting their role in bone marrow-derived adipocytes.

Biomathematical enzyme kinetics model of prebiotic autocatalytic RNA networks: degenerating parasite-specific hyperparasite catalysts confer parasite resistance and herald the birth of molecular immunity

M. Pirovino, C. Iseli, J. A. Curran, B. Conrad

The paper develops a biomathematical enzyme kinetics model of prebiotic autocatalytic RNA networks, showing that hyperparasites confer parasite resistance and explain the origin of molecular immunity.

Energy-harnessing problem solving of primordial life: modeling the emergence of catalytic host-parasite life cycles

B. Conrad, M. Pirovino

The paper models the emergence of catalytic host-parasite life cycles in primordial life, showing how three host-parasite pairs can achieve stable homeostasis and efficient energy transformation.
