The Polyphenol Profile and Antioxidant Potential of Irradiated Rye Grains by Dorota Gumul, Wiktor Berski

“…The irradiation process resulted in an average increase of 10% of the total phenolic content as compared to the raw material, with each of the analyzed varieties reacting in different manners. The amount of tannins increased after irradiation at a constant level regardless of the applied gamma ray doses in the all analyzed rye grain varieties. …”

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Family and the Immune System: Activators or Inhibitors? by Cristina Maria Failla, Maria Luigia Carbone, Carmela Ramondino, Emanuele Bruni, Angela Orecchia

“…In addition, immune cells express VEGF receptors and/or co-receptors and can respond to VEGFs in an autocrine or paracrine manner. This immunological role of VEGFs has opened the possibility of using the VEGF inhibitors already developed to inhibit tumor angiogenesis also in combination approaches with different immunotherapies to enhance the action of effector T lymphocytes against tumor cells. …”

An AkNN Algorithm for High-Dimensional Big Data by Zhongwei Wang, Yefang Chen, Siyou Xiao, Jiangbo Qian

“…A new variant of k nearest neighbor queries，which called as all k-nearest neighbor queries（AkNN），is a process to search the k nearest neighbors of each object in a data set.An AkNN query algorithm for high-dimensional big data on the Hadoop system was proposed.Using the banding technique and the p-stable LSH algorithm，dimensionality reduction was performed，then the data was embeded in a Z-order curve.The preprocessed data were continued to be treated on a MapReduce framework in a distributed parallel manner.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can efficiently handle AkNN queries for large-scale high-dimensional data.…”

Joint sparse model based data reconstruction algorithm for wireless sensor network by Yi-yin LIU, Guo-rui LI, Li TIAN

“…The data of wireless sensor network has strong joint sparse characteristics,by utilizing compressed sensing theory,compressed data by joint encoding,and then reconstructed the data by joint decoding,the sensed data can be gathered with low computational cost.A synchronous subspace pursuit algorithm based on joint sparse model and com-pressed sensing theory was proposed.By utilizing the sparsity of the sensed data,it selected the correct joint subspace and reconstruct the original signal group accurately with fewer observations in a backtracking iterative manner.Com-pared with SCoSaMP algorithm and SP algorithm,the proposed algorithm presents better data reconstruction perform-ance under the conditions of different sparsity and sampling rate.…”

Calpain 2 promotes Lenvatinib resistance and cancer stem cell traits via both proteolysis-dependent and independent approach in hepatocellular carcinoma by Xiaolu Ma, Kaixia Zhou, Tianqing Yan, Ling Hu, Suhong Xie, Hui Zheng, Ying Tong, Heng Zhang, Yanchun Wang, Zhiyun Gong, Cuncun Chen, Yanan Tian, Lin Guo, Renquan Lu

“…Mechanistically, we strikingly discovered that CAPN2 exerted its function by both enzyme-dependent and enzyme-independent manner simultaneously: activating β-Catenin signaling through its enzyme activity, and preventing GLI1/GLI2 degradation through direct binding to YWHAE in an enzyme-independent manner, which disrupting the association between YWHAE and GLI1/GLI2 to inhibit YWHAE-induced degradation of GLIs. …”
