A Distinguishable Role of eDNA in the Viscoelastic Relaxation of Biofilms
mBio, 2013 Bacteria in the biofilm mode of growth are protected against chemical and mechanical stresses. Biofilms are composed, for the most part, of extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs). The extracellular matrix is composed of different chemical constituents,

Comparative study of filler influence on polylactide photooxidation [PDF]
, 2013 Polylactide (PLA) based nanocomposites of organically modified montmorillonite and micro-talc based micro- composites were prepared with different compositions and were UV-light irradiated under artificial accelerated conditions representative of solar ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Tumor microenvironment drives cancer formation and progression. We analyzed the role of human cancer‐associated adipocytes from patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) stratified as lean, overweight, or obese. RNA‐seq demonstrated that, among the most altered genes involved in the tumor–stroma crosstalk, are ADAM12 and CYP1B1, which were proven to be ...

The optimal one dimensional periodic table: a modified Pettifor chemical scale from data mining
New Journal of Physics, 2016 Starting from the experimental data contained in the inorganic crystal structure database, we use a statistical analysis to determine the likelihood that a chemical element A can be replaced by another B in a given structure. This information can be used

Categorical Dimensions of Human Odor Descriptor Space Revealed by Non-Negative Matrix Factorization [PDF]
, 2013 In contrast to most other sensory modalities, the basic perceptual dimensions of olfaction remain unclear. Here, we use non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) – a dimensionality reduction technique – to uncover structure in a panel of odor profiles ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Large multidimensional digital images of cancer tissue are becoming prolific, but many challenges exist to automatically extract relevant information from them using computational tools. We describe publicly available resources that have been developed jointly by expert and non‐expert computational biologists working together during a virtual hackathon

A multiscale model of cell mobility: From a kinetic to a hydrodynamic description [PDF]
, 2014 This paper concerns a model for tumor cell migration through the surrounding extracellular matrix by considering mass balance phenomena involving the chemical interactions produced on the cell surface. The well-posedness of this model is proven. An asymptotic analysis via a suitable hydrodynamic limit completes the description of the macroscopic ...

Compositional data analysis in archaeometry [PDF]
, 2003 We shall call an n × p data matrix fully-compositional if the rows sum to a constant, and sub-compositional if the variables are a subset of a fully-compositional data set1.

Collagen-hyaluronic acid scaffolds for adipose tissue engineering. [PDF]
, 2010 Three-dimensional (3-D) in vitro models of the mammary gland require a scaffold matrix that supports the development of adipose stroma within a robust freely permeable matrix. 3-D porous collagen-hyaluronic acid (HA: 7.5% and 15%) scaffolds were produced
