Importance of Fatty Acids in Physiopathology of Human Body

, 2017
Fatty acids are important components of the human body, having biological, structural and functional roles. Besides their role as source of energy, they act as main constitu ents of cellular membranes. In this case, as part of the membrane phospholipids,

Human Body Epigenome Maps Reveal Noncanonical DNA Methylation Variation

Nature, 2015
Understanding the diversity of human tissues is fundamental to disease and requires linking genetic information, which is identical in most of an individual’s cells, with epigenetic mechanisms that could have tissue-specific roles.

Inhibitor of DNA binding‐1 is a key regulator of cancer cell vasculogenic mimicry

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Elevated expression of transcriptional regulator inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (ID1) promoted cancer cell‐mediated vasculogenic mimicry (VM) through regulation of pro‐angiogenic and pro‐cancerous genes (e.g. VE‐cadherin (CDH5), TIE2, MMP9, DKK1). Higher ID1 expression also increased metastases to the lung and the liver.

OPPH: A Vision-Based Operator for Measuring Body Movements for Personal Healthcare [PDF]

arXiv
Vision-based motion estimation methods show promise in accurately and unobtrusively estimating human body motion for healthcare purposes. However, these methods are not specifically designed for healthcare purposes and face challenges in real-world applications.

Loss of proton‐sensing GPR4 reduces tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
G protein‐coupled receptor 4 (GPR4) is a pH‐sensing receptor activated by acidic pH. GPR4 expression is increased in patients with inflammatory bowel disease who are at high risk of developing colorectal cancer. In mouse models, loss of GPR4 attenuated tumor progression. This correlated with increased IL2 and natural killer cell activity.

Comprehensive omics‐based classification system in adult patients with B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The COMBAT classification system, developed through multi‐omics integration, stratifies adult patients with B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(B‐ALL) into three molecular subtypes with distinct surface antigen patterns, immune landscape, methylation patterns, biological pathways and prognosis.

Dose‐dependent induction of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in 3D melanoma models by non‐thermal plasma treatment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Non‐thermal plasma treatment of melanoma cells induced epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in a dose‐dependent fashion. This report highlights the critical need to further investigate potential adverse effects of non‐thermal plasma for cancer therapy and to optimize treatment parameters for clinical translation. Despite the promising results of non‐

MUC: Mixture of Uncalibrated Cameras for Robust 3D Human Body Reconstruction [PDF]

arXiv
Multiple cameras can provide comprehensive multi-view video coverage of a person. Fusing this multi-view data is crucial for tasks like behavioral analysis, although it traditionally requires camera calibration, a process that is often complex. Moreover, previous studies have overlooked the challenges posed by self-occlusion under multiple views and ...

Single Image Action Recognition using Semantic Body Part Actions [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
In this paper, we propose a novel single image action recognition algorithm which is based on the idea of semantic body part actions. Unlike existing bottom up methods, we argue that the human action is a combination of meaningful body part actions. In detail, we divide human body into five parts: head, torso, arms, hands and legs.
