The case for absolute ligand discrimination : modeling information processing and decision by immune T cells [PDF]
, 2015 Some cells have to take decision based on the quality of surroundings ligands, almost irrespective of their quantity, a problem we name "absolute discrimination". An example of absolute discrimination is recognition of not-self by immune T Cells. We show

An Artificial Intelligent Signal Amplification System for in vivo Detection of miRNA
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019 MicroRNAs (miRNA) have been identified as oncogenic drivers and tumor suppressors in every major cancer type. In this work, we design an artificial intelligent signal amplification (AISA) system including double-stranded SQ (S, signal strand; Q, quencher
