Detection of Dendritic Spines Using Wavelet Packet Entropy and Fuzzy Support Vector Machine.

CNS & neurological disorders drug targets
The morphology of dendritic spines is highly correlated with the neuron function. Therefore, it is of positive influence for the research of the dendritic spines. However, it is tried to manually label the spine types for statistical analysis. In thi...

Decreased Uptake and Enhanced Mitochondrial Protection Underlie Reduced Toxicity of Nanoceria in Human Monocyte-Derived Macrophages.

Journal of biomedical nanotechnology
Cerium dioxide nanoparticles (nanoceria), currently used as catalysts including additives to diesel fuel, also present potential as a novel therapeutic agent for disorders involving oxidative stress. However, little is known about the effects of nano...

High Mobility Group Box 1 Protein Enhances HIV Replication in Newly Infected Primary T Cells.

Clinical laboratory
BACKGROUND: High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), a DNA-binding protein, has recently been shown to have effects on HIV replication, but the effects are dependent on the cell type and the timing of infection. Using human primary T cells, this study aime...

Effect of doxycycline on transforming growth factor-beta-1-induced matrix metalloproteinase 2 expression, migration, and collagen contraction in nasal polyp-derived fibroblasts.

American journal of rhinology & allergy
PURPOSE: It is well known that doxycycline has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of doxycycline on the transforming growth factor (TGF) beta 1-induced matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2 expr...

The major synthetic evolutionary transitions.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences
Evolution is marked by well-defined events involving profound innovations that are known as 'major evolutionary transitions'. They involve the integration of autonomous elements into a new, higher-level organization whereby the former isolated units ...

Genotoxicity in lead treated human lymphocytes evaluated by micronucleus and comet assays.

Indian journal of experimental biology
Lead (Pb) which plays a significant role in modern industry is related to a broad range of physiological, biochemical, behavioural and genetical dysfunctions. Its exposure leads to an increased frequency of genetic aberrations in humans. Hence, this ...

In vitro effects of Melaleuca alternifolia essential oil on growth and production of volatile sulphur compounds by oral bacteria.

Journal of applied oral science : revista FOB
OBJECTIVE: Halitosis can be caused by microorganisms that produce volatile sulphur compounds (VSCs), which colonize the surface of the tongue and subgingival sites. Studies have reported that the use of natural products can reduce the bacterial load ...

Use of a Machine Learning-Based High Content Analysis Approach to Identify Photoreceptor Neurite Promoting Molecules.

Advances in experimental medicine and biology
High content analysis (HCA) has become a leading methodology in phenotypic drug discovery efforts. Typical HCA workflows include imaging cells using an automated microscope and analyzing the data using algorithms designed to quantify one or more spec...
