Inducing Immune Tolerance through Peripheral Clonal Deletion Targeting PD-1 Expressing Cells Background Introduction The establishment of T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire through thymic negative selection is a key process for achieving self-tolerance and acquired tolerance post-organ transplantation. However, it remains unclear whether the specific...
YAP Inhibits the TEAD-NF-κB Complex and Suppresses the Growth of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma Research Background Conventionally, the Hippo signaling pathway inhibits YAP-TEAD transcriptional complexes by keeping the transcriptional coactivator YAP phosphorylated and retained in the cytoplasm, thereby impeding tumor growth. However, researchers ...
Scientific Report Background Introduction Perception and neuronal processing of sensory information are largely influenced by prior expectations. Perception is not merely passive reception, but an active inferential process by combining existing sensory information with prior information based on past experience and current context. The combination...
Brain Connectivity Analysis Based on Reading Tasks in Children with Dyslexia (Using EEG Signals) Dyslexia is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects the normal reading ability, even though children with normal intelligence may still be affected. This paper investigates the differences in brain connectivity between children with dyslexia and norm...
Research Report on Potential Biomarkers for Early Detection of ADHD: Phase-Based Functional Brain Connectivity and Graph Theory Analysis This is a research report titled “Potential Biomarkers for Early Detection of ADHD: Using Phase-Based Functional Brain Connectivity and Graph Theory Analysis”. This study was conducted by Farhad Abedinzadeh Torgha...
Background and Research Motivation It is well-known that food nutrition is closely related to human health. Scientific research has shown that improper dietary nutrition is linked to more than 200 diseases. Especially when considering the metabolic processes of gut microbiota, the complex interactions between food nutrients and diseases become diff...
Predicting Drug-Target Affinity Based on Learning Protein Knowledge from Biological Networks Background The prediction of drug-target affinity (DTA) plays a crucial role in drug discovery. Efficient and accurate DTA prediction can significantly reduce the time and economic costs of new drug development. In recent years, the explosive development of...
AAV-Mediated Trastuzumab Delivery to the Central Nervous System for EGFR2-Positive Brain Metastases Introduction In the treatment of breast cancer, tumors that are human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive exhibit more aggressive characteristics, posing significant challenges for clinical treatment. Since the approval of trastuzumab ...
