On the existence and exponential attractivity of a unique positive almost periodic solution to an impulsive hematopoiesis model with delays [PDF]
In this paper, a generalized model of hematopoiesis with delays and impulses is considered. By employing the contraction mapping principle and a novel type of impulsive delay inequality, we prove the existence of a unique positive almost periodic solution of the model.

Modelling hematopoiesis mediated by growth factors with applications to periodic hematological diseases [PDF]
Hematopoiesis is a complex biological process that leads to the production and regulation of blood cells. It is based upon differentiation of stem cells under the action of growth factors. A mathematical approach of this process is proposed to carry out explanation on some blood diseases, characterized by oscillations in circulating blood cells.

Bayesian inference and model choice in a hidden stochastic two-compartment model of hematopoietic stem cell fate decisions [PDF]
Despite rapid advances in experimental cell biology, the in vivo behavior of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) cannot be directly observed and measured. Previously we modeled feline hematopoiesis using a two-compartment hidden Markov process that had birth and emigration events in the first compartment.

Efficient Transition Probability Computation for Continuous-Time Branching Processes via Compressed Sensing [PDF]
Branching processes are a class of continuous-time Markov chains (CTMCs) with ubiquitous applications. A general difficulty in statistical inference under partially observed CTMC models arises in computing transition probabilities when the discrete state space is large or uncountable.

CD14+ monocytes repress gamma globin expression at early stages of erythropoiesis
In β-hemoglobinopathies, reactivation of gamma- at the expense of beta-globin is a prominent therapeutic option. Expression of the globin genes is not strictly intrinsically regulated during erythropoiesis, supported by the observation that fetal ...

A Plethora of Functions Condensed into Tiny Phospholipids: The Story of PI4P and PI(4,5)P2
Phosphoinositides (PIs) are small, phosphorylated lipids that serve many functions in the cell. They regulate endo- and exocytosis, vesicular trafficking, actin reorganization, and cell mobility, and they act as signaling molecules. The most abundant PIs

Background Although both copy number variations (CNVs) and single nucleotide variations (SNVs) detected by single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) are used to study intratumor heterogeneity and detect clonal groups, a software that integrates these two ...
