Renewal Reward Processes with Heavy-Tailed Inter-Renewal Times and Heavy-Tailed Rewards [PDF]

open access: yesBernoulli, 2000
This paper studies a superposition \(W^*\) of renewal-reward processes having inter-renewal time and reward distributions with heavy tails of exponents \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\), respectively, where \(1< \alpha< 2 ...

Potential therapeutic targeting of BKCa channels in glioblastoma treatment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes current insights into the role of BKCa and mitoBKCa channels in glioblastoma biology, their potential classification as oncochannels, and the emerging pharmacological strategies targeting these channels, emphasizing the translational challenges in developing BKCa‐directed therapies for glioblastoma treatment.

Heavy tails and upper-tail inequality: The case of Russia

open access: yes, 2018
Motivated, in part, by the recent surge of interest in robust inequality measurement, cross-country inequality comparisons, applications of heavy-tailed distributions and the study of global and upper-tail inequality, this paper focuses on robust ...

Heavy-Tailed Density Estimation

open access: yesJournal of the American Statistical Association, 2022
A novel statistical method is proposed and investigated for estimating a heavy tailed density under mild smoothness assumptions. Statistical analyses of heavy-tailed distributions are susceptible to the problem of sparse information in the tail of the distribution getting washed away by unrelated features of a hefty bulk.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Asymptotic Formulas for the Haezendonck–Goovaerts Risk Measure of Sums with Consistently Varying Increments

open access: yesAxioms
The Haezendonck–Goovaerts (HG) risk measure defined on Orlicz spaces via the so-called normalised Young function is a direct generalisation of the Expected Shortfall risk measure.

The Lambert Way to Gaussianize Heavy-Tailed Data with the Inverse of Tukey’s h Transformation as a Special Case

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2015
I present a parametric, bijective transformation to generate heavy tail versions of arbitrary random variables. The tail behavior of this heavy tail Lambert  W × FX random variable depends on a tail parameter δ≥0: for δ=0, Y≡X, for δ>0 Y has heavier ...

Combining antibody conjugates with cytotoxic and immune‐stimulating payloads maximizes anti‐cancer activity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Methods to improve antibody–drug conjugate (ADC) treatment durability in cancer therapy are needed. We utilized ADCs and immune‐stimulating antibody conjugates (ISACs), which are made from two non‐competitive antibodies, to enhance the entry of toxic payloads into cancer cells and deliver immunostimulatory agents into immune cells.

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

The Random Effect Transformation for Three Regularity Classes

open access: yesMathematics
We continue the analysis of the influence of the random effect transformation on the regularity of distribution functions. The paper considers three regularity classes: heavy-tailed distributions, distributions with consistently varying tails, and ...
