FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The A3 adenosine receptors (A3ARs) are overexpressed in prostate cancer. AR 292 and AR 357, as A3AR antagonists, are capable of blocking proliferation, modulating the expression of drug transporter genes involved in chemoresistance, ferroptosis, and the hypoxia response, and inducing cell death.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The contrast transfer function (CTF) is an imaging aberration that is a major resolution‐limiting factor in cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM). Precise CTF estimation is key to overcoming this limitation, but is particularly challenging in cryo‐electron tomography (cryo‐ET) data. Here, we present an approach for using geometric information to assist in

An ocular biomechanics environment for reinforcement learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Reinforcement learning has been applied to human movement through physiologically-based biomechanical models to add insights into the neural control of these movements; it is also useful in the design of prosthetics and robotics. In this paper, we extend the use of reinforcement learning into controlling an ocular biomechanical system to perform ...
