Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can donate mitochondria and rescue anthracycline-induced cardiomyocyte (CM) damage, although the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. We determined that superior efficiency of mitochondrial transfer by human induced-pluripotent-stem-cell-derived MSCs (iPSC-MSCs) compared with bone marrow-derived (BM-MSCs) is due to high expression intrinsic Rho GTPase 1 (MIRO1). Further, a higher level TNFαIP2 expression, iPSC-MSCs are more responsive tumor necrosis factor...
A heterogeneous information network (HIN) is a graph model in which objects and edges are annotated with types. Large complex databases, such as YAGO DBLP, can be modeled HINs. fundamental problem HINs the computation of closeness, or relevance, between two HIN objects. Relevance measures used various applications, including entity resolution, recommendation, retrieval. Several studies have investigated use for relevance computation, however, most them only utilize simple structure, path, to...
Compliant actuators are significant for safe physical human-robot interaction. Series elastic actuator (SEA) is the most popular type of compliant actuators, which possesses several attractive features, such as low output impedance, back drivability, shock tolerance, smooth force transmission, and energy efficiency. This brief focuses on adaptive command-filtered backstepping control (CFBC) design robot arms driven by SEAs. The CFBC alleviates complexity problem in integrator has attracted...
Deformable object manipulation (DOM) is an emerging research problem in robotics. The ability to manipulate deformable objects endows robots with higher autonomy and promises new applications the industrial, services, health-care sectors. However, compared rigid manipulation, of considerably more complex still open problem. Addressing DOM challenges demands breakthroughs almost all aspects robotics: hardware design, sensing, (deformation) modeling, planning, control. In this article, we...
Grasping has long been considered an important and practical task in robotic manipulation. Yet achieving robust efficient grasps of diverse objects is challenging, since it involves gripper design, perception, control learning, etc. Recent learning-based approaches have shown excellent performance grasping a variety novel objects. However, these methods either are typically limited to one single mode, or else more end effectors needed grasp various In addition, design learning commonly...
Series elastic actuators (SEAs) are known to offer a range of advantages over stiff for human–robot interaction, such as high force/torque fidelity, low impedance, and tolerance shocks. While variety SEAs have been developed implemented in initiatives that involve physical interactions with humans, relatively few control schemes were proposed deal the dynamic stability uncertainties robotic systems driven by SEAs, open issue safety resolves conflicts motion between human robot has not...

Abstract Transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) can protect cardiomyocytes against anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy (AIC) through paracrine effects. Nonetheless the effects human induced pluripotent cell-derived MSCs (iPSC-MSCs) on AIC are poorly understood. In vitro studies reveal that doxorubicin (Dox)-induced reactive oxidative stress (ROS) generation and cell apoptosis in neonatal rat (NRCMs) significantly reduced when treated with conditioned medium...
Abstract Introduction Tumor‐associated macrophages, a major component of the tumor microenvironment, undergo polarization into M2 macrophages (M2), and thereby exert an immunosuppressive effect to induce cancer metastasis.

A heterogeneous information network (HIN) is one whose nodes model objects of different types and links objects' relationships. In many applications, such as social networks RDF-based knowledge bases, can be modeled HINs. To enrich its content, (as represented by nodes) in an HIN are typically associated with additional attributes. We call Attributed or AHIN. study the problem clustering AHIN, taking into account similarities respect to both object attribute values their structural...
