Simulating Evolution on Fitness Landscapes represented by Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problems [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Recent theoretical research proposes that computational complexity can be seen as an ultimate constraint that allows for open-ended biological evolution on finite static fitness landscapes. Whereas on easy fitness landscapes, evolution will quickly converge to a local fitness peaks, on hard fitness landscapes this computational constraints prevents ...

The Mutational Landscape of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesScience, 2011
The mutational profile of head and neck cancer is complex and may pose challenges to the development of targeted therapies. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a common, morbid, and frequently lethal malignancy.

Plasma lipidomic and metabolomic profiles in high‐grade glioma patients before and after 72‐h presurgery water‐only fasting

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Presurgery 72‐h fasting in GB patients leads to adaptations of plasma lipids and polar metabolites. Fasting reduces lysophosphatidylcholines and increases free fatty acids, shifts triglycerides toward long‐chain TGs and increases branched‐chain amino acids, alpha aminobutyric acid, and uric acid.
