Emergent properties of collective gene expression patterns in multicellular systems [PDF]
Multicellular organisms comprise a diverse collection of stable tissues built from different cell types. It remains unclear how large numbers of interacting cells can precisely coordinate their gene expression during tissue self-organization. We develop a generalized model of multicellular gene expression that includes intracellular and intercellular ...

Organ preservation strategies: Review of literature and their applicability in developing nations
There has been a change in practice in locally advanced laryngopharyngeal cancers toward non-surgical treatment modalities. Although, there have been landmark trials pertinent to organ preservation, their applicability in developing nations is a topic of

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Human colon organoid differentiation from induced pluripotent stem cells using an improved method
We compared established protocols to differentiate induced pluripotent stem cells into colon organoids and found that activation of bone morphogenetic protein 2 signaling induced gene expression of colon‐specific markers. Adenovirus‐mediated transduction of the transcription factors HOXD13 or SATB2 further enhanced colonic gene expression, suggesting ...

RAP-Net: Coarse-to-Fine Multi-Organ Segmentation with Single Random Anatomical Prior [PDF]
Performing coarse-to-fine abdominal multi-organ segmentation facilitates to extract high-resolution segmentation minimizing the lost of spatial contextual information. However, current coarse-to-refine approaches require a significant number of models to perform single organ refine segmentation corresponding to the extracted organ region of interest ...
