Structure Evaluation of AES-like Ciphers against Mixture Differential Cryptanalysis [PDF]
In ASIACRYPT 2017, Rønjom et al. analyzed AES with yoyo attack. Inspired by their 4-round AES distinguisher, Grassi proposed the mixture differential cryptanalysis as well as a key recovery attack on 5-round AES, which was shown to be better than the ...

Metformin‐Mediated Glycaemic Regulation as a Potential Strategy for Breast Cancer Prevention
Metformin (MET), a common antihyperglycemic drug, shows promising anti‐cancer effects in breast cancer (BC). It activates adenosine monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), regulating cellular energy and inducing cell cycle arrest, anti‐proliferation, and microenvironment alterations.

18‐FDG PET in the Evaluation of Therapeutic Response of Necrotizing Otitis Externa
PET performed well in assessing the therapeutic response of NEO, with excellent sensitivity but low specificity of visual analysis. A complementary quantitative analysis was useful to distinguish between satisfactory and insufficient partial responses. ABSTRACT Objective The duration of antibiotic treatment for necrotizing otitis externa (NEO) and the ...

Pholkos -- Efficient Large-state Tweakable Block Ciphers from the AES Round Function [PDF]
With the dawn of quantum computers, higher security than $128$ bits has become desirable for primitives and modes. During the past decade, highly secure hash functions, MACs, and encryption schemes have been built primarily on top of keyless permutations,

Using mice, we applied multi‐omics to compare liver and skeletal muscle after chronic alcohol consumption. The liver responded more strongly across genes, proteins, and metabolites, with a lowered PC:PE ratio. Muscle showed inflammation, extracellular matrix activation, impaired mitochondrial energetics, and an elevated PC:PE ratio. Lipidomics affected

Metabolism‐Regulating Nanomedicines for Cancer Therapy
This review highlights metabolism‐regulating nanomedicines designed to target glycolytic, lipid, amino acid, and nucleotide pathways in tumors. By incorporating metabolism‐regulating agents into versatile nanocarriers such as liposomes, micelles, dendrimers, and engineered bacteria, these platforms achieve targeted delivery, controlled release ...

A Holistic Framework for Impossible Boomerang Attacks [PDF]
In 2011, Lu introduced the impossible boomerang attack at DCC. This powerful cryptanalysis technique combines the strengths of the impossible differential and boomerang attacks, thereby inheriting the advantages of both cryptographic techniques.

Impossible Boomerang Attacks Revisited: Applications to Deoxys-BC, Joltik-BC and SKINNY [PDF]
The impossible boomerang (IB) attack was first introduced by Lu in his doctoral thesis and subsequently published at DCC in 2011. The IB attack is a variant of the impossible differential (ID) attack by incorporating the idea of the boomerang attack.

Forking Sums of Permutations for Optimally Secure and Highly Efficient PRFs [PDF]
The desirable encryption scheme possesses high PRF security, high efficiency, and the ability to produce variable-length outputs. Since designing dedicated secure PRFs is difficult, a series of works was devoted to building optimally secure PRFs from the

Automatic Classical and Quantum Rebound Attacks on AES-like Hashing by Exploiting Related-key Differentials [PDF]
Collision attacks on AES-like hashing (hash functions constructed by plugging AES-like ciphers or permutations into the famous PGV modes or their variants) can be reduced to the problem of finding a pair of inputs respecting a differential of the ...
