Airway smooth muscle (ASM) hypertrophy and hyperplasia are important determinants of bronchial responsiveness in asthma, agents that interfere with these processes may prevent airway remodeling. We tested the hypothesis activators soluble particulate guanylyl cyclases would inhibit human ASM cell (HASMC) proliferation. report nitric oxide (NO) donors S-nitroso- N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP; 10 −6 to −4 M) sodium nitroprusside (10 −5 −3 atrial natriuretic peptide [ANP-(1—28); −8 M], which...

Abstract Kubernetes has emerged as the backbone of modern cloud-native environments, enabling efficient orchestration containerized applications. However, its dynamic nature exposes it to sophisticated cyber threats, including privilege escalation, reconnaissance, and denial-of-service attacks. This paper presents a novel framework that combines real-time multi-class threat detection with adaptive deception enhance security. The integrates KServe for scalable machine learning-based...

Although guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) acts as a relaxant second messenger, the regulation of intracellular cGMP has not been comprehensively studied in human airway smooth muscle. We production by cultured muscle cells (HASMC) after stimulation with activators soluble guanylyl cyclase [sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and S-nitroso- N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP)] particulate [atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain (BNP), C-type (CNP), Escherichia coli heat stable enterotoxin (STa)]....

We have characterised the mechanisms involved in antiproliferative effect of NO human airway smooth muscle cells (HASMC). S ‐Nitroso‐ N ‐acetyl penicillamine, a nitric oxide donor, inhibited proliferation both G 1 and phases cell cycle. Additionally, experiments with 8‐bromo‐cGMP, haemoglobin, scavenger zaprinast, cGMP‐specific phosphodiesterase inhibitor, showed that effects were NO‐mediated. The phase inhibition was cGMP‐dependent whereas due to cGMP‐independent ribonucleotide reductase....

Abstract Concurrent multipath transfer (CMT) is a transport layer protocol used for transferring data over multiple paths concurrently. In the case of asymmetric paths, dissimilarity delay, bandwidth, and loss rate among leads to challenges such as out‐of‐order packets, receiver buffer blocking, throughput reduction. A framework that uses end‐to‐end delay distribute packets in ordering policy proposed. The proposed detects network congestion assigned path reduces window. Furthermore,...

Introduction: Inducible laryngeal obstruction (ILO) is an important cause of a variety respiratory symptoms and can mimic bronchial asthma (BA). This study was planned to measure the prevalence ILO among patients diagnosed with BA detect its effect on control severity. Material methods: Patients aged 18 years or older who were previously enrolled. Laryngeal induced using patient’s specific trigger (e.g. exercise). Visualization vocal folds accomplished 70-degree rigid laryngoscope (Karl...

This paper proposes a new single camera automatic crowd density estimation method for overcoming the linearity problem and enhancing counting prediction accuracy. For problem, combination of features including segmented regions properties, texture, edge, SIFT keypoints are extracted from foreground regions. These normalized to solve perspective distortion problem. The complete feature set partial this utilized train multiple regression models predict per region enhance Moreover,...

One of the primary tasks completing and developing many computer vision applications is to identify remove shadow regions. Most existing moving detection methods depend on extracting hand-crafted features object regions manually (for example chromaticity, physical, or geometric properties). Shadow using handcrafted a challenging task due different environmental conditions such as camouflage illumination irregularity problems that make these inefficient handle problems. The proposed method...
