Little is known about the regulatory effect of microbiota on proliferation and regeneration ISCs. Here, we found that L. reuteri stimulated intestinal epithelia by increasing expression R-spondins thus activating Wnt/β-catenin pathway. The proliferation-stimulating Lactobacillus repair further enhanced under TNF -induced mucosal damage, number Lgr5+ cells maintained. Moreover, compared to effects C. rodentium induction inflammation crypt hyperplasia in mice, protected barrier integrity...
We experimentally demonstrate a 16 × non-blocking optical switch fabric with footprint of 10.7 4.4 mm2. The is composed 56 2 silicon Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZIs), each integrated pair TiN resistive micro-heaters and p-i-n diode. average on-chip insertion loss at 1560 nm wavelength ~6.7 dB ~14 for the "all-cross" "all-bar" states, respectively, variation ± 1 over all routing paths. measured rise/fall time upon electrical tuning 3.2/2.5 ns. switching functionality verified by...
Fine-grained image classification methods often suffer from the challenge that subordinate categories within an entry-level category can only be distinguished by subtle differences. Crop disease is affected various visual interferences, including uneven illumination, dew, and equipment jitter. It demands effective algorithm to accurately discriminate one others. Thus, representational ability of needs strengthened learn a robust domain-specific discrimination through way. To address this...
Maturity level-based classification system plays an essential role in the design of tomato harvesting robot. Traditional knowledge-based systems are unable to meet current production management requirements precision picking, because they time-consuming and have low accuracy. Our research proposes improved deep learning-based method that improves accuracy scalability ripeness with a small amount training data. This study was on relationship between different dataset augmentation methods...
Abstract The unique complementary switching behaviour of resistive switches (CRSs) makes them very attractive for logic applications. implementation complete Boolean functions in a single CRS cell is certainly an extremely important step towards the commercialisation related circuits, but it has not been accomplished to date. Here, we report two methods cell. first method based on intrinsic switchable diode peculiar that composed anti-serial bipolar with rectifying high resistance state,...
A number of mammalian antimicrobial proteins produced by neutrophils and cells epithelial origin have chemotactic activating effects on host cells, including the immune system. Eosinophil granules contain an protein known as eosinophil-derived neurotoxin (EDN), which belongs to RNase superfamily. EDN has antiviral activities in vitro. In this study, we show that EDN, a lesser extent human pancreatic (hPR), another superfamily member, activates dendritic (DCs), leading production variety...
China's soybean supply and demand are seriously imbalanced. It is crucial to improve the level of breeding. Hundred-grain weight one most essential phenotypic parameters for crop Accurate seed counting a key step 100-grain weight. There several methods, which have their own limitations way or other. Among these, manual time-consuming, electronic automatic counter devices expensive speed very slow, traditional digital image processing techniques not suitable based on individual pod images....
Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most prevalent neoplastic diseases worldwide, but efficacious treatments for this pathological condition are still challenging. The lack an effective targeted therapy also leads to a poor prognosis patients affected by TNBC. In present study, we repurposed distinctive inhibitory effects flubendazole, traditional anthelmintic drug, towards putative modulation proliferation and migration TNBC in vitro vivo. Methods: According...
Effective and efficient fruit detection is considered crucial for designing automated robot (AuRo) yield estimation, disease control, harvesting, sorting, grading. Several schemes AuRo have been developed during the last decades. However, conventional methods are deficient in real-time response, accuracy, extensibility. This paper proposes an improved multi-task cascaded convolutional network-based intelligent method. method has capability to make work real time with high accuracy. Moreover,...
Abstract Background Effective soybean seed phenotyping demands large-scale accurate quantities of morphological parameters. The traditional manual acquisition phenotype information is error-prone, and time-consuming, which not feasible for collection. segmentation individual the prerequisite step obtaining phenotypic traits such as length width. Nevertheless, image-based methods high-throughput are robust practical. Although deep learning-based algorithms can achieve training strong...
On the basis of thermoelastic martensitic transformation involved, mechanical behaviors NiTiNb shape memory alloys were experimentally studied and their wide hysteresis effect was theoretically discussed. It found that even at same temperature perform different when under states. In addition, yielding behavior for reorientation martensite is dependent on alloys. The alloy with lower MS exhibits yield stress martensite. According to kinetic thermodynamic analysis transformations, a...
Intestinal microbiota is necessary for the guarantee of intestinal mucosal barrier. However, detailed effect probiotics on porcine development, especially in early life, still unclear. In this study, we treated 3-day-old newborn piglets with Lactobacillus reuteri (L. reuteri) D8 and observed its beneficial piglets. The body weights, villus height, crypt depth jejunum were all significantly increased after L. treatment also proliferation index PCNA+ cells crypt, as well c-Myc Tcf4...
The transition towards carbon neutrality and sustainable urban development necessitates innovative strategies for managing multi-energy supply stations (MESS), which integrate oil, gas, electricity, hydrogen to support diversified energy demands. Existing revenue prediction models MESS lack interpretability adaptability, hindering actionable insights operations. This study proposes a novel Shapley additive explanations (SHAP)-driven machine learning framework station forecasting. By...
The fluorescent quantum dots (QDs) delivered small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) targeting β-secretase (BACE1) to achieve high transfection efficiency of siRNAs and reduction β-amyloid (Aβ) in nerve cells. CdSe/ZnS QDs with the conjugation amino-polyethylene glycol (PEG) were synthesized. Negatively charged electrostatically adsorbed surface develop QD-PEG/siRNA nanoplexes. QD-PEG/siRNAs nanoplexes significantly promote siRNA, from non-packaged widely distributed cell bodies processes...
