Identification and validation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor-associated hub genes in ulcerative colitis via integrated bioinformatics analysis.

Human genomics
OBJECTIVE: Ulcerative colitis (UC), a chronic inflammatory bowel disease, continues to pose substantial challenges in both diagnosis and treatment. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) plays a pivotal role in intestinal immune regulation; however, its...

SLC25A39 regulates Hedgehog signaling to promote tumor progression and sorafenib resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Scientific reports
Sorafenib is the standard treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), yet resistance limits its efficacy. The Hedgehog (HH) signaling pathway contributes to drug resistance by maintaining HCC stem cell characteristics, but its role at the ...

YOLO-DP: A detection model of fifteen common rice diseases and pests.

Scientific reports
During rice cultivation, common rice diseases and pests such as Rice blast, Bacterial blight, Brown-planthopper and Leaf-folder will significantly affect the yield and quality. The current model is limited to detecting rice diseases or pests alone, a...

Interval estimation of thermal summation parameters in forensically important insects.

Scientific reports
Estimating time of death based on entomological evidence commonly relies on the "law of total effective temperature", which requires developmental parameters of specific insect taxa. These are often calculated using the method of Ikemoto and Takai. H...

DLFea4AMPGen de novo design of antimicrobial peptides by integrating features learned from deep learning models.

Nature communications
Deep learning models show promise in accelerating the design and optimization of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), but current methods face challenges, such as low success rates, or large virtual library scales. In this study, we introduce DLFea4AMPGen,...

Artificial embodied circuits uncover neural architectures of vertebrate visuomotor behaviors.

Science robotics
Brains evolve within specific sensory and physical environments, yet neuroscience has traditionally focused on studying neural circuits in isolation. Understanding of their function requires integrative brain-body testing in realistic contexts. To in...

Cancer-associated fibroblasts enhance colorectal cancer lymphatic metastasis via CLEC11A/LGR5-mediated WNT pathway activation.

The Journal of clinical investigation
Hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment promotes lymphatic metastasis, yet the role of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in this process remains insufficiently elucidated in colorectal cancer (CRC). In this study, we developed a large language model...

Deep learning-enhanced 3D real-time photoacoustic imaging using experimental ground truths obtained from fluctuation imaging.

Physics in medicine and biology
3D conventional photoacoustic (PA) imaging often suffers from visibility artifacts caused by the limited bandwidth and constrained viewing angles of ultrasound transducers, as well as the use of sparse arrays. PA fluctuation imaging (PAFI), which lev...

Precise path planning for robot-assisted craniotomy: a CT-driven virtual center method.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
. Craniotomy is a critical prerequisite for numerous neuro-surgeries, including intracranial tumor resection and cerebral hemorrhage decompression. However, conventional manual craniotomy methods are often time-consuming, labor-intensive, and associa...

Reinforcement learning for robust navigation of fish-like agents in various fluid environments.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Achieving robust and energy-efficient navigation in unknown fluid environments remains a key challenge for bioinspired underwater robots. In this study, we develop a reinforcement learning-based control framework that enables a fish-like swimmer to a...
