Previous studies have suggested that exposure to carcinogenic polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) pollutants may increase the risk of colon cancer, their underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In thi... read more
There is no consensus about what consciousness and its emergent form, intelligence, are. Yet this article proposes a new definition of intelligence. The new definition implicates the thermodynamic aspect of an intelligent system as a far from equilib... read more
Cancer remains a leading cause of death worldwide, with lineage plasticity emerging as a hallmark that drives therapy resistance and tumor progression by enabling cancer cells to alter identity and evade targeted therapies. Although genomic and trans... read more
BACKGROUND: Advances in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have led to the ability to study the brain across many contexts. However, the large number of features generated by functional connectivity approaches may overfit the data. These pr... read more
OBJECTIVES: Accurate documentation of distant recurrence sites in breast cancer is essential for evaluating treatment effectiveness and outcomes research. However, such information is embedded in unstructured clinical notes, making manual abstraction... read more
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Chinese phytomedicines exert holistic effects, yet their multidimensional mechanisms of action (MOAs) remain challenging to reveal. Standalone mass spectrometry (MS)-based chemical profiling is largely constrained to k... read more

Precise assessment of occupational lead exposure remains a major global public health challenge, as existing assessment methods are limited by overreliance on single biomarkers, insufficient capture of complex multi-factor interactions, and algorithm... read more
PURPOSE: In this research, key factors influencing breast cancer risk, a major global issue, are investigated, using machine learning (ML) and explainable AI, for racial differences. METHODS: We used Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) data,... read more
Itch or pruritus invokes a specific reflexive and repetitive directed nocifensive behavioural response, known as scratching. Recent decades have revealed neural circuits that are involved in the sensory and affective-motivational aspects of itch-indu... read more
Virtual Cell (VC) technology, as an interdisciplinary frontier at the intersection of systems biology and computational biology, aims to precisely simulate cellular biological behaviors through computer models. This paper systematically explores the ... read more
