Curriculum Knowledge Switching for Pancreas Segmentation [PDF]
Pancreas segmentation is challenging due to the small proportion and highly changeable anatomical structure. It motivates us to propose a novel segmentation framework, namely Curriculum Knowledge Switching (CKS) framework, which decomposes detecting pancreas into three phases with different difficulty extent: straightforward, difficult, and challenging.

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors
ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Pancreas segmentation with probabilistic map guided bi-directional recurrent UNet [PDF]
Pancreas segmentation in medical imaging data is of great significance for clinical pancreas diagnostics and treatment. However, the large population variations in the pancreas shape and volume cause enormous segmentation difficulties, even for state-of-the-art algorithms utilizing fully-convolutional neural networks (FCNs).

Single-Cell Transcriptomics of the Human Endocrine Pancreas
Human pancreatic islets consist of multiple endocrine cell types. To facilitate the detection of rare cellular states and uncover population heterogeneity, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) on islets from multiple deceased organ donors ...

Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Deep convolutional networks for pancreas segmentation in CT imaging [PDF]
Automatic organ segmentation is an important prerequisite for many computer-aided diagnosis systems. The high anatomical variability of organs in the abdomen, such as the pancreas, prevents many segmentation methods from achieving high accuracies when compared to other segmentation of organs like the liver, heart or kidneys.
