Applications of Fuss-Catalan Numbers to Success Runs of Bernoulli Trials

Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2016
In a recent paper, the authors derived the exact solution for the probability mass function of the geometric distribution of order k, expressing the roots of the associated auxiliary equation in terms of generating functions for Fuss-Catalan numbers ...

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Exact results for fixation probability of bithermal evolutionary graphs

, 2012
One of the most fundamental concepts of evolutionary dynamics is the "fixation" probability, i.e. the probability that a mutant spreads through the whole population.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

A probablistic proof of the series representation of the MacDonald function with applications

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1998
A series representation of the Macdonald function is obtained using the properties of a probability density function and its moment generating function. Some applications of the result are discussed and an open problem is posed.

A generating function approach to branching random walks

, 2016
It is well known that the behaviour of a branching process is completely described by the generating function of the offspring law and its fixed points.

Pre‐analytical optimization of cell‐free DNA and extracellular vesicle‐derived DNA for mutation detection in liquid biopsies

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical handling critically determines liquid biopsy performance. This study defines practical best‐practice conditions for cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicle–derived DNA (evDNA), showing how processing time, storage conditions, tube type, and plasma input volume affect DNA integrity and mutation detection.

The Age-of-Information Distribution in Slotted ALOHA

IEEE Access
Age-of-Information (AoI) is a new performance metric for critical networked cyber-physical systems (CPS), where performance depends on how quickly fresh data is received in update packets.

Efficient Transition Probability Computation for Continuous-Time Branching Processes via Compressed Sensing [PDF]

, 2015
Branching processes are a class of continuous-time Markov chains (CTMCs) with ubiquitous applications. A general difficulty in statistical inference under partially observed CTMC models arises in computing transition probabilities when the discrete state
