Robust Modelling of Biological Neuroregulators [PDF]

2005 IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology 27th Annual Conference, 2005
The modelling of biological neuroregulated systems is usually complex because of their non-structured and distributed architecture. Software agents are a very useful tool to use in the modelling of this kind of systems, allowing increasing the model with characteristics which are not present in the biological equivalent. This work proposes a model of a

Impact of Dose Calculation Algorithms and Radiobiological Parameters on Prediction of Cardiopulmonary Complications in Left Breast Radiation Therapy [PDF]

Journal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering
Background: Breast cancer requires evaluating treatment plans using dosimetric and biological parameters. Considering radiation dose distribution and tissue response, healthcare professionals can optimize treatment plans for better outcomes.

Setting Parameters for Biological Models With ANIMO [PDF]

, 2014
ANIMO (Analysis of Networks with Interactive MOdeling) is a software for modeling biological networks, such as e.g. signaling, metabolic or gene networks. An ANIMO model is essentially the sum of a network topology and a number of interaction parameters.

Dietary DHA during development affects depression-like behaviors and biomarkers that emerge after puberty in adolescent rats

Journal of Lipid Research, 2015
DHA is an important omega-3 PUFA that confers neurodevelopmental benefits. Sufficient omega-3 PUFA intake has been associated with improved mood-associated measures in adult humans and rodents, but it is unknown whether DHA specifically influences these ...

Reaction-diffusion models for biological pattern formation [PDF]

, 2001
We consider the use of reaction-diffusion equations to model biological pattern formation and describe the derivation of the reaction-terms for several illustrative examples.

CYANIDIN-3-GLUCOSIDE PROMOTES LONGEVITYAND TOLERANCE AGAINST UVA AND OXIDATIVE STRESS IN CAENORHABDITIS ELEGANS [PDF]

Exploratory Animal and Medical Research, 2023
Crude anthocyanins extracted from different fruits and vegetables extend the lifespan of various organisms. However, the effects of pure anthocyanin compounds on the lifespan are still unknown.

Development and validation of computational models of cellular interaction [PDF]

, 2004
In this paper we take the view that computational models of biological systems should satisfy two conditions – they should be able to predict function at a systems biology level, and robust techniques of validation against biological models must be ...

Caffeine reduces deficits in mechanosensation and locomotion induced by L-DOPA and protects dopaminergic neurons in a transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans model of Parkinson’s disease

Pharmaceutical Biology, 2020
Context L-DOPA is the first-line drug for Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, chronic use can lead to dyskinesia. Caffeine, which is a known neuroprotectant, can potentially act as an adjunct to minimise adverse effects of L-DOPA.

New Prenylated Indole Homodimeric and Pteridine Alkaloids from the Marine-Derived Fungus Aspergillus austroafricanus Y32-2

Marine Drugs, 2021
Chemical investigation of secondary metabolites from the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus austroafricanus Y32-2 resulted in the isolation of two new prenylated indole alkaloid homodimers, di-6-hydroxydeoxybrevianamide E (1) and dinotoamide J (2), one ...

Automatic landmarking for building biological shape models [PDF]

, 2002
We present a new method for automatic landmark extraction from the contours of biological specimens. Our ultimate goal is to enable automatic identification of biological specimens in photographs and drawings held in a database.
