Investigating conformation changes and network formation of mucin in joints functioning in human locomotion [PDF]
Many different processes take place to facilitate lubrication of the joints functioning in human locomotion system. The main purpose of this is to avoid destroying the articular cartilage. Viscoelastic properties of the joints system are very sensitive on both temperature and concentration changes because of the change in conformation presented in the ...

DFDL: Discriminative Feature-oriented Dictionary Learning for Histopathological Image Classification [PDF]
In histopathological image analysis, feature extraction for classification is a challenging task due to the diversity of histology features suitable for each problem as well as presence of rich geometrical structure. In this paper, we propose an automatic feature discovery framework for extracting discriminative class-specific features and present a ...

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm: Coming of age
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is a disease in evolution. Since its first description almost 30 years ago, a better understanding of the disease has steadily accrued. Yet, there are numerous challenges still for clinicians who treat this fascinating disease.

Folding of Pig Gastric Mucin Non-glycosylated Domains: A Discrete Molecular Dynamics Study [PDF]
Mucin glycoprotein consist of tandem repeating glycosylated regions flanked by non-repetitive protein domains with little glycosylation. These non-repetitive domains are involved in the pH dependent gelation of gastric mucin, which is essential to protecting the stomach from autodigestion.

Clinical course of pancreas cancer diagnosed after spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy with borderline lesion: two case reports [PDF]
Distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy is considered the standard operation for pancreas tail and body cancer. However, splenectomy may be option for benign or low-grade malignant tumors including mucinous cystadenoma and intraductal papillary mucinous ...
