Automatic landmarking for building biological shape models [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Reaction-diffusion models for biological pattern formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Setting Parameters for Biological Models With ANIMO [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

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

open access: yesMarine 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 ...

Anomalous relaxation kinetics of biological lattice-ligand binding models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We discuss theoretical models for the cooperative binding dynamics of ligands to substrates, such as dimeric motor proteins to microtubules or more extended macromolecules like tropomyosin to actin filaments.

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

open access: yes, 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

open access: yesPharmaceutical 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.

The Effect of a Unique Region of Parvovirus B19 Capsid Protein VP1 on Endothelial Cells

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Parvovirus B19 (B19V) is a widespread human pathogen possessing a high tropism for erythroid precursor cells. However, the persistence or active replication of B19V in endothelial cells (EC) has been detected in diverse human pathologies.
