D-amphetamine alters the dynamic ECoG activity distribution patterns in the rat neocortex.

Scientific reports
Amphetamine has widespread effects on multiple neurotransmitter systems, potentially altering the physiological connectivity and network dynamics across various regions of the brain. In this study, we investigated the effects of D-amphetamine using o...

Analysis of sperm beating characteristics using microfluidic trapping and machine-learning-based flagellum tracking.

Lab on a chip
Male infertility affects a significant portion of couples worldwide, with standard semen analysis often failing to identify functional deficiencies in sperm performance. This study presents a microfluidic platform for characterizing sperm flagellar b...

Functional biomaterials and machine learning approaches for phenotyping heterogeneous tumor cells and extracellular vesicles.

Biomaterials science
Heterogeneity in cancer is known to be a contributor to the formation of metastatic lesions, poor prognosis, and ultimately undermines therapeutic efficacy. This same tumor heterogeneity is reflected in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and tumor derive...

Global genomic survey of Kentucky: discovery of a chromosomeborne and the emergence of ST314, an MDR clone mediated by the IncR plasmid.

Emerging microbes & infections
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in enterica serotype Kentucky ( Kentucky) is a global challenge, with increasing resistance to cephalosporins, ciprofloxacin, and carbapenems significantly limiting treatment strategies, yet its worldwide dissemination...

From sequence to scaffold: Computational design of protein nanoparticle vaccines from AlphaFold2-predicted building blocks.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Self-assembling protein nanoparticles are being increasingly utilized in the design of next-generation vaccines due to their ability to induce antibody responses of superior magnitude, breadth, and durability. Computational protein design offers a ro...

Machine learning-enabled acoustic sensing for RPW infestation detection.

Scientific reports
Red Palm Weevil(RPW) infestation is a major challenge in palm production, often remaining undetected until severe internal damage has occurred. This proposed work presents a novel non-invasive auditory detection system that combines advanced signal p...

Decoding the spectrum of meat quality: advances in hyperspectral imaging for multi-attribute analysis.

Food chemistry
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has emerged as a powerful non-destructive technique for evaluating fresh meat quality across multiple attributes simultaneously. This review critically examines recent advances in HSI applications for fresh beef, pork, and...

Two-factor synaptic consolidation reconciles robustness with pruning and homeostatic scaling.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Memory consolidation refers to a process of engram reorganization and stabilization that is thought to occur primarily during sleep through a combination of neural replay, homeostatic plasticity, synaptic maturation, and pruning. From a computational...

Functionalized mesenchymal stem cells for enhanced bone regeneration: advances and challenges.

Stem cell research & therapy
Bone fracture continues to pose a significant clinical challenge in regenerative medicine due to limited repair capacity and inadequate therapeutic options. Among the various therapeutic strategies, mesenchymal stem cells have shown strong potential ...

Evaluation of (Z)-endoxifen as a potential therapy for glioblastoma multiforme through computational and experimental analyses.

Scientific reports
(Z)-endoxifen (endoxifen) is the active metabolite of tamoxifen. Endoxifen is a potent antiestrogen that binds and blocks estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and estrogen receptor beta (ERβ). Early-phase clinical trials have shown that endoxifen has promis...
