Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that fine particulate matter (PM) exposure causes airway inflammation, which may lead to lung cancer. The activation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is assumed to be a crucial step in lung tumor me...
Machine learning systems have recently received increased attention for their broad applications in several fields. In this study, we show for the first time that histological types of breast tumors can be classified using subtle morphological differ...
OBJECTIVE: We investigate the effects of bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) on models with silica-induced and macrophage-mediated fibrosis and its possible mechanisms in vitro.

Efficient Human Epithelial-2 cell image classification can facilitate the diagnosis of many autoimmune diseases. This paper proposes an automatic framework for this classification task, by utilizing the deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) which...
The aim of the study was to characterize exopolysaccharides (EPS) originated from Lactobacillus reuteri strain DSM 17938 (EPS-DSM17938) and L. reuteri strain L26 Biocenol™ (EPS-L26) and evaluate their influence on adherence of enterotoxigenic Escheri...
Cells internalize various molecules through clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME). Previous live-cell imaging studies suggested that CME is inefficient, with about half of the events terminated. These CME efficiency estimates may have been confounded b...
OBJECTIVE: This paper presents benchmarking results of human epithelial type 2 (HEp-2) interphase cell image classification methods on a very large dataset. The indirect immunofluorescence method applied on HEp-2 cells has been the gold standard to i...
MOTIVATION: Experiments in animal models are often conducted to infer how humans will respond to stimuli by assuming that the same biological pathways will be affected in both organisms. The limitations of this assumption were tested in the IMPROVER ...
OBJECTIVE: Cataract, a common age-related blinding eye disease, has a complex pathogenesis. This study aims to identify key genes and potential mechanisms associated with cataracts, offering new targets and insights for its prevention and treatment.
BACKGROUND: Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is a rare but aggressive malignancy, often detected late due to early asymptomatic stages. Understanding cellular and molecular changes from normal tissue to high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) and invasiv...
