Biology is designed for multi-semester biology courses for science majors. It is grounded on an evolutionary basis and includes exciting features that highlight careers in the biological sciences and everyday applications of the concepts at hand. To meet the needs of today’s instructors and students, some content has been strategically condensed while maintaining the overall scope and coverage of traditional texts for this course. Instructors can customize the book, adapting it to the approach that works best in their classroom. Biology also includes an innovative art program that incorporates critical thinking and clicker questions to help students understand—and apply—key concepts.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"Survival is a complex energy-balancing act that involves a number of cell signaling pathways. One important player in this act is the protein mTORC1. Previous studies have shown that inhibiting mTORC1 is beneficial for health—and lifespan—serving as one promising way to fight cancer, for example. Now, a new computational model could reveal important details about key players in aging. This model captures the dynamic of known key players in the aging process, such as AMPK, mTORC1, and SIRT signaling pathways. Model simulations indicated that PRAS40 can be considered as another mTORC1 inhibitor. This access point is clinically important, as it provides a way of suppressing mTORC1 with the optimum dose of the inhibitor rapamycin, which at high doses and long exposure is known to cause problems such as insulin resistance. Results suggest that Sestrin2 is another potential candidate that can inhibit mTORC1..."
