Confocal laser scanning microscope, raman microscopy and western blotting to evaluate inflammatory response after myocardial infarction [PDF]
Cardiac muscle necrosis is associated with inflammatory cascade that clears the infarct from dead cells and matrix debris, and then replaces the damaged tissue with scar, through three overlapping phases: the inflammatory phase, the proliferative phase

Stochastic variation in the FOXM1 transcription program mediates replication stress tolerance
Cellular heterogeneity is a major cause of drug resistance in cancer. Segeren et al. used single‐cell transcriptomics to investigate gene expression events that correlate with sensitivity to the DNA‐damaging drugs gemcitabine and prexasertib. They show that dampened expression of transcription factor FOXM1 and its target genes protected cells against ...

Elastic $k$-means clustering of functional data for posterior exploration, with an application to inference on acute respiratory infection dynamics [PDF]
We propose a new method for clustering of functional data using a $k$-means framework. We work within the elastic functional data analysis framework, which allows for decomposition of the overall variation in functional data into amplitude and phase components. We use the amplitude component to partition functions into shape clusters using an automated

CircCCNB1 expression is down‐regulated in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC); thus, less NF90 protein is bound to circCCNB1 and more binds to pri‐miRNAs, blocking their (pri‐miRNAs) binding to DGCR8 and inhibiting the processing and generation of miR‐15b‐5p/miR‐7‐1‐3p. Furthermore, decreased miR‐15b‐5p/miR‐7‐1‐3p promotes the expression of the target genes

Similar in vivo killing efficacy of polyoma virus-specific CD8 T cells during acute and chronic phases of the infection [PDF]
Viral infections can be broadly divided into infections that are cleared from the host (acute) and those that persist (chronic). Why some viruses establish chronic infections while other do not is poorly understood. One possibility is that the host's immune response is impaired during chronic infections and is unable to clear the virus from the host ...

A physical perspective on lithium therapy [PDF]
Lithium salts have strong medical properties in neurological disorders such as bipolar disorder and lithium-responsive headaches. They have recently gathered attention due to their potential preventive effect in viral infections. Though the therapeutic effect of lithium was documented by Cade in the late 1940s, its underlying mechanism of action is ...

TOMM20 increases cancer aggressiveness by maintaining a reduced state with increased NADH and NADPH levels, oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), and apoptosis resistance while reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Conversely, CRISPR‐Cas9 knockdown of TOMM20 alters these cancer‐aggressive traits.
