An Efficient Production Process for Extracting Salivary Glands from Mosquitoes [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Malaria is the one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in many developing countries. The development of a highly effective and readily deployable vaccine represents a major goal for world health. There has been recent progress in developing a clinically effective vaccine manufactured using Plasmodium falciparum sporozoites (PfSPZ ...

A Pathologist-Informed Workflow for Classification of Prostate Glands in Histopathology [PDF]

First International Workshop, MOVI 2022, Held in Conjunction with MICCAI 2022, Singapore, September 18, 2022, Proceedings, https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-16961-8, 2022
Pathologists diagnose and grade prostate cancer by examining tissue from needle biopsies on glass slides. The cancer's severity and risk of metastasis are determined by the Gleason grade, a score based on the organization and morphology of prostate cancer glands.

Empirical comparison of routinely collected electronic health record data for head and neck cancer‐specific survival in machine‐learnt prognostic models

Head &Neck, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 365-379, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Knowledge of the prognostic factors and performance of machine learning predictive models for 2‐year cancer‐specific survival (CSS) is limited in the head and neck cancer (HNC) population. Methods Data from our facilities' oncology information system (OIS) collected for routine practice (OIS dataset, n = 430 patients) and research ...

An Insect Salivary Sheath Protein Triggers Plant Resistance to Insects and Pathogens as a Conserved HAMP

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The salivary sheath protein myosin from SBPH is critical for the formation of the salivary sheath and feeding. However, myosin functions as a HAMP and triggered plant BAK1‐mediated PTI responses, which include the activation of calcium signaling pathways, MAPK phosphorylation, ROS bursts, and cell death, thereby triggering JA pathway.
