Recent studies have revealed the importance of multiple microRNAs (miRNAs) in promoting tumorigenesis, among which mir-17-92/Oncomir-1 exhibits potent oncogenic activity. Genomic amplification and elevated expression mir-17-92 occur several human B-cell lymphomas, enforced mice cooperates with c-myc to promote formation lymphomas. Unlike classic protein-coding oncogenes, has an unconventional gene structure, where one primary transcript yields six individual miRNAs. Here, we functionally...
Vibration motors are often used to generate tactile feedback enhance human-machine interactions and provide information about the environment. We interested in using these user when wearing below-knee prostheses by providing informational cues via vibrations on thigh. Our initial designs hold against thigh resulted a weak perception of vibration. took an engineering approach improve sensation modeling system designing new device that maximized skin displacement. results show suspended design...
Vibrotactile devices suffer from poor energy efficiency, arising a mismatch between the device and impedance of human skin. This results in over-sized actuators excessive power consumption, prevents development more sophisticated, miniaturized low-power mobile tactile devices. In this paper, we present experimental evaluation vibrotactile system designed to match skin actuator. is able quadruple motion without increasing produce sensations equivalent standard while consuming 1/2 power. By...
This paper studies human reaction time to six different stimulus modalities while standing and walking: visual, auditory, vibration on the toe, thigh, waist, wrist. The were chosen as possible means of sensory feedback for a smart lower limb prosthesis. Reaction times measured from start press hand-held button. Results show that comparable all modalities, but walking disproportionately affects perception thigh toe stimuli.
In addition to body weight and Body Mass Index (BMI), composition is an essential data point that allows people understand their overall health fitness. However, largely made up of muscle, fat, bones, water, which makes estimation not as easy straightforward measuring weight. this paper, we introduce a multimodal multi-task deep neural network estimate fat percentage skeletal muscle mass by analyzing facial images in person's height, gender, age, information. Using dataset representative...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non‐coding ribonucleic acids involved in gene regulation by inhibiting translation through binding with perfect or almost complementarity the 3’untranslated region of target mRNAs. Investigations He et.al.describe a miRNA cluster, mir‐17‐92 polycistron, overexpressed B‐cell lymphomas and comprised six miRNAs: miR‐17, 18, 19a, 20, 19b, 92. Enforced expression this cluster acted c‐myc to accelerate tumor development mouse lymphoma model prevented apoptosis tumors...
