Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access Assisted by Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface Using Unsupervised Machine Learning [PDF]
Nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with multi-antenna base station (BS) is a promising technology for next-generation wireless communication, which has high potential in performance and user fairness. Since the performance of NOMA depends on the channel conditions, we can combine NOMA and reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), which is a large and

Consumption of sufficient quantities of oat products has been shown to reduce host cholesterol and thereby modulate cardiovascular disease risk. The effects are proposed to be mediated by the gel-forming properties of oat β-glucan which modulates host ...

Identification of bile alcohols in rat bile.
Bile alcohols in rat bile were analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Six bile alcohols were newly identified as minor constituents in addition to 5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,26-tetrol, major bile alcohol of rat bile. The bile alcohols newly identified were 27-nor-5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha,24,25-pentol,

Synthesis, in vitro and in vivo evaluation of 3β-[18F]fluorocholic acid for the detection of drug-induced cholestasis in mice [PDF]
Introduction : Drug-induced cholestasis is a liver disorder that might be caused by interference of drugs with the hepatobiliary bile acid transporters. It is important to identify this interference early on in drug development.

Letter to the Editor and Comments on: Intravital dynamic and correlative imaging reveals diffusion-dominated canalicular and flow-augmented ductular bile flux [PDF]
Bile, the central metabolic product of the liver, is secreted by hepatocytes into bile canaliculi (BC), tubular subcellular structures of 0.5-2 $\mu$m diameter which are formed by the apical membranes of juxtaposed hepatocytes. BC interconnect to build a highly ramified 3D network that collects and transports bile towards larger interlobular bile ducts

The ARM Scalable Vector Extension [PDF]
This article describes the ARM Scalable Vector Extension (SVE). Several goals guided the design of the architecture. First was the need to extend the vector processing capability associated with the ARM AArch64 execution state to better address the computational requirements in domains such as high-performance computing, data analytics, computer vision,

Effect of phospholipids and bile acids on cholesterol nucleation time and vesicular/micellar cholesterol in gallbladder bile of patients with cholesterol stones [PDF]
Supersaturation and rapid nucleation of cholesterol in bile are of key importance in the pathogenesis of cholesterol gallstones. While the effects of bile acids and phospholipids on cholesterol saturation of bile have been extensively studied, their ...

Intravital Multiphoton Microscopy with Fluorescent Bile Salts in Rats as an In Vivo Biomarker for Hepatobiliary Transport Inhibition [PDF]
The bile salt export pump (BSEP) is expressed at the canalicular domain of hepatocytes, where it mediates the elimination of monovalent bile salts into the bile.
