Essays on blood supply management by Senga, Juan Ramon Liboro

“…The final analysis compares the strategies of short-term and long-term planning horizons, such that long-term planning horizons focus on recruitment of new donors at the start and retention of more regular donors towards the end.…”

Adversarial robustness of deep reinforcement learning by Qu, Xinghua

“…Motivated by this finding, we propose a new policy distillation loss with two terms: 1) a prescription gap maximization loss aiming at simultaneously maximizing the likelihood of the action selected by the teacher policy and the entropy over the remaining actions; 2) a corresponding Jacobian regularization loss that minimizes the magnitude of gradient with respect to the input state. …”

Determination of the surface sterilization protocol and optimization of ficus carica callus induction: Unveiling the potential of auxins and low kinetin concentration on callogenes... by Sin, Phin Yin, Tan, Suat Hian, Lim, Hooi Thong, Putri Shareen, Rosman, Karim, Md. Rezaul

“…Micropropagation is the in vitro approach used for the propagation of fig trees that relies on effective surface sterilization and optimal plant growth regulators (PGRs) enriched in the culture medium. The objectives of this study were to determine the surface sterilization protocol for F. carica and to optimize the callus induction in F. carica using a combination of different auxins (naphthalene acetic acid and 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) and cytokinin (kinetin) at varied concentrations. …”

The stress granule protein G3BP1 binds viral dsRNA and RIG-I to enhance interferon-β response by Kim, Susana Soo-Yeon, Sze, Lynette, Lam, Kong-Peng

“…The stress granule protein G3BP1, known to arrest mRNA translation, was identified as a regulator of RIG-I–induced IFN-β production. How G3BP1 functions in RIG-I signaling is not known, however. …”

Chronic oxidative stress promotes GADD34-mediated phosphorylation of the TAR DNA-binding protein TDP-43, a modification linked to neurodegeneration by Goh, Catherine Wenhui, Lee, Irene Chengjie, Sundaram, Jeyapriya Rajameenakshi, George, Simi Elizabeth, Yusoff, Permeen, Brush, Matthew Hayden, Sze, Newman Siu Kwan, Shenolikar, Shirish

“…Our findings highlight that the phosphatase regulator, GADD34, also functions as a kinase scaffold in response to chronic oxidative stress and recruits CK1ϵ and oxidized TDP-43 to facilitate its phosphorylation, as seen in TDP-43 proteinopathies.…”

Early and strong leptin reduction is predictive for long-term weight loss during high-protein, low-glycaemic meal replacement: a subanalysis of the randomised-controlled ACOORH tri... by Kempf, Kerstin, Röhling, Martin, Banzer, Winfried, Braumann, Klaus-Michael, Halle, Martin, Schaller, Nina, McCarthy, H. David, Predel, Hans Georg, Schenkenberger, Isabelle, Tan, Susanne, Toplak, Hermann, Martin, Stephan, Berg, Aloys

“…Since leptin is involved in weight regulation, we hypothesised that a meal replacement-based lifestyle intervention would reduce leptin levels more effectively than lifestyle intervention alone. …”

Impact of polyethylene microplastics exposure on kallikrein-3 levels, steroidal-thyroidal hormones, and antioxidant status in murine model: protective potentials of naringin by Kehinde, Samuel Abiodun, Fatokun, Tolulope Peter, Olajide, Abosede Temitope, Praveena, Sarva Mangala, Sokan-Adeaga, Adewale Allen, Adekunle, Adegbola Philip, Fouad, Dalia, Papadakis, Marios

“…PE-MPs exposure also disrupted significantly (p < 0.005) antioxidant profile by down-regulating the activities of glutathione-S-transferase, catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and reducing levels of glutathione (GSH) and ascorbic acid (AA) while concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were increased relative to control. …”
