Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Determination of Colles fracture risk index by X-ray images with the computer vision application

open access: yesBolʹ, Sustavy, Pozvonočnik
Background. Modelling a predictive risk index for Colles fractures using X-ray image analysis is a crucial application in orthopaedics since these fractures have essential health and economic burdens, particularly among the elderly. Previous research has

Structural dynamics of the plant hormone receptor ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The present study unveils the structural and signaling dynamics of ETR1, a key plant ethylene receptor. Using an optimized nanodisc system and solution NMR, we captured full‐length ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment. Our findings reveal dynamic domain uncoupling and Cu(I)‐induced rigidification, providing the first evidence of metal‐triggered ...

From lactation to malignancy: A comparison between healthy and cancerous breast gland at single‐cell resolution reveals new issues for tumorigenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals an opposite role of SLPI in basal tumors based on metastatic spread, along with shared activation of specific regulons in cancer cells and mature luminal lactocytes, as well as downregulation of MALAT1 and NEAT1 in the latter.

Thresholding approaches for estimating paraspinal muscle fat infiltration using T1‐ and T2‐weighted MRI: Comparative analysis using water–fat MRI

open access: yesJOR Spine
Background Paraspinal muscle fat infiltration is associated with spinal degeneration and low back pain, however, quantifying muscle fat using clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques continues to be a challenge.

FADIT: Fast Document Image Thresholding

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2020
We propose a fast document image thresholding method (FADIT) and evaluations of the two classic methods for demonstrating the effectiveness of FADIT. We put forward two assumptions: (1) the probability of the occurrence of grayscale text and background ...

Weight Thresholding on Complex Networks [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2018
Weight thresholding is a simple technique that aims at reducing the number of edges in weighted networks that are otherwise too dense for the application of standard graph theoretical methods. We show that the group structure of real weighted networks is

Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.

Optic disc localization using interference map and localized segmentation using grab cut

open access: yesAutomatika, 2021
Many eye diseases such as Diabetic Retinopathy, Cataract, Glaucoma have their symptoms shown in the retina. To detect such diseases, the normal and abnormal retina should be differentiated.

Modified Grasshopper Algorithm-Based Multilevel Thresholding for Color Image Segmentation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Multilevel thresholding is an important approach for image segmentation which has drawn much attention during the past few years. The Tsallis entropy method is implemented for its effectiveness and simplicity.
