Biological significance of RNA-seq and single-cell genomic research in woody plants
(2019-04-01)
RNA-seq and single-cell genomic research emerge as an important research area in the recent years due to its ability to examine genetic information of any number of single cells in all living organisms. The knowledge gained ...
Host-specialized fibrinogen-binding by a bacterial surface protein promotes biofilm formation and innate immune evasion
(2019-06)
Fibrinogen is an essential part of the blood coagulation cascade and a major component of the extracellular matrix in mammals. The interface between fibrinogen and bacterial pathogens is an important determinant of the ...
Hemodynamic-GUIDEd management of Heart Failure (GUIDE-HF)
(2019-04-25)
In that study, incremental reductions in the PA pressures in the monitored arm were associated with both reduction in the frequency of HFH and improvements in health-related quality of life among patients with both preserved ...
Impact of United States political sanctions on international collaborations and research in Iran
(2019-06-17)
International research collaborations improve individual,
institutional and governmental capacities to respond
to health crises and inequalities but may be greatly
affected by political environments. Iran ranks highly
in ...
An endemic plant and the plant-insect visitor network of a dune ecosystem
(2019-04)
Network theory increasingly is used to quantify and evaluate mutualistic interactions, such as those among plants and their flower-visiting insects or pollinators. Some plant species have been shown to be important in ...
Measuring Workplace Discrimination among Sexual and Gender Minority Workers
(2019-11-01)
As inequities in health for sexual and gender minority (SGM; eg, lesbian, gay, bisexual,
and transgender [LGBT]) populations become increasingly well documented, it is important to investigate causes of inequities to ...
Developing high performance concrete for precast/prestressed concrete industry
(2019-12)
High performance concrete (HPC) is a new class of concrete that has superior characteristics compared to conventional concrete. Despite of its superior characteristics, HPC is not widely used in local and international ...
Differential gene expression and gene variants drive color and pattern development in divergent color morphs of a mimetic poison frog
(2019-07-21)
Evolutionary biologists have long investigated the ecological contexts, evolutionary forces, and proximate mechanisms that produce the diversity of animal coloration we see in the natural world. In aposematic species, color ...
MELPF Version 1: Modeling Error Learning Based Post-Processor Framework for Hydrologic Models Accuracy Improvement
(2019-09-23)
This paper studies how to improve the accuracy of hydrologic models using machine-learning models as postprocessors and presents possibilities to reduce the workload to create an accurate hydrologic model by removing the ...
Imaging of morphological and biochemical hallmarks of apoptosis with optimized optogenetic tools
(2019-10-03)
Creation of optogenetic switches for specific activation of cell death pathways can provide insights into apoptosis and could also form a basis for noninvasive, next-generation therapeutic strategies. Previous work has ...
