Possible role of human ribonuclease dicer in the regulation of R loops
R loops play an important role in regulating key cellular processes such as replication, transcription, centromere stabilization, or control of telomere length. However, the unscheduled accumulation of R loops can cause many diseases, including cancer, and neurodegenerative or inflammatory disorders. Interestingly, accumulating data indicate a possible

Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) occupy an abundant fraction of the eukaryotic transcriptome and an emerging area in cancer research. Regulation by lncRNAs is based on their subcellular localization in HNSCC. This cartoon shows the various functions of lncRNAs in HNSCC discussed in this review.

Objective. Gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEA) is a high deadly and heterogeneous cancer. RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification plays a non-negligible role in shaping individual tumour microenvironment (TME) characterizations.

Deep-learning models in medical image analysis: Detection of esophagitis from the Kvasir Dataset [PDF]
Early detection of esophagitis is important because this condition can progress to cancer if left untreated. However, the accuracies of different deep learning models in detecting esophagitis have yet to be compared. Thus, this study aimed to compare the accuracies of convolutional neural network models (GoogLeNet, ResNet-50, MobileNet V2, and ...

A fully resolved active musculo-mechanical model for esophageal transport [PDF]
Esophageal transport is a physiological process that mechanically transports an ingested food bolus from the pharynx to the stomach via the esophagus, a multi-layered muscular tube. This process involves interactions between the bolus, the esophagus, and the neurally coordinated activation of the esophageal muscles.

The role of circular RNAs in regulating cytokine signaling in cancer
Cytokines present in the tumor microenvironment fuel cancer development. Aberrant expression of circRNAs contributes to cancer progression. Cytokines are involved in regulating circRNA biogenesis. Furthermore, aberrantly expressed circRNAs regulate the expression of ligands, receptors, and downstream effectors involved in cytokine signaling to promote ...
