Mediation Analysis using Semi-parametric Shape-Restricted Regression with Applications [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Often linear regression is used to perform mediation analysis. However, in many instances, the underlying relationships may not be linear, as in the case of placental-fetal hormones and fetal development. Although, the exact functional form of the relationship may be unknown, one may hypothesize the general shape of the relationship. For these reasons,

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin and Breast Cancer [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017 Breast cancer is well known as a malignancy being strongly influenced by female steroids. Pregnancy is a protective factor against breast cancer. Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a candidate hormone which could mediate this antitumoral effect of pregnancy.

Computational modeling approaches in gonadotropin signaling [PDF]
Theriogenology, 86(1):22-31 (2016), 2018 Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) play essential roles in animal reproduction. They exert their function through binding to their cognate receptors, which belong to the large family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). This recognition at the plasma membrane triggers a plethora of cellular events, whose processing and ...

Morphogenesis of filaments growing in flexible confinements [PDF]
Nature Communications 5 (2014) 4437, 2014 Space-saving design is a requirement that is encountered in biological systems and the development of modern technological devices alike. Many living organisms dynamically pack their polymer chains, filaments or membranes inside of deformable vesicles or soft tissue like cell walls, chorions, and buds.
