Long non-coding RNAs are involved in biological processes throughout the cell including the nucleus, chromatin and cytosol. However, most lncRNAs remain unannotated and functional annotation of lncRNAs is difficult due to their low conservation and t...
Enhancers are cis-acting sequences that regulate transcription rates of their target genes in a cell-specific manner and harbor disease-associated sequence variants in cognate cell types. Many complex diseases are associated with enhancer malfunction...
We present a 3D bioimage analysis workflow to quantitatively analyze single, actin-stained cells with filopodial protrusions of diverse structural and temporal attributes, such as number, length, thickness, level of branching, and lifetime, in time-l...

The aim of this study was to isolate and identify antioxidant peptides from defatted walnut meal proteins hydrolysates (DWMPH) prepared by simulated gastrointestinal digestion, and to evaluate the protective effect of the selected antioxidant peptide...
BACKGROUND: With the developments of DNA sequencing technology, large amounts of sequencing data have been produced that provides unprecedented opportunities for advanced association studies between somatic mutations and cancer types/subtypes which f...
Machine learning-based cell classifiers use cell images to automate cell-type discrimination, which is increasingly becoming beneficial in biological studies and biomedical applications. Brightfield or fluorescence images are generally employed as th...
Chemogenomic approaches involving highly annotated compound sets and cell based high throughput screening are emerging as a means to identify novel drug targets. We have previously screened a collection of highly characterized kinase inhibitors (Khan...

The vitamin D-modulated transcriptome of highly responsive human cells, such as THP-1 monocytes, comprises more than 500 genes, half of which are primary targets. Recently, we proposed a chromatin model of vitamin D signaling demonstrating that nearl...

In this paper, we propose a novel contour-seed pairs learning-based framework for robust and automated cell/nucleus segmentation. Automated granular object segmentation in microscopy images has significant clinical importance for pathology grading of...
Human lungs are susceptible to the toxicity induced by soluble xenobiotics. However, the direct cellular effects of many pulmonotoxic chemicals are not always clear, and thus, a general in vitro assay for testing pulmonotoxicity applicable to a wide ...
