BACKGROUND & AIMS METHODS: Severe intestinal diseases observed in very young children are often the result of monogenic defects. We used whole exome sequencing (WES) to examine the genetic cause in a patient with a distinct severe form of...

Cross-platform normalization of microarray and RNA-seq data for machine learning applications.

PeerJ

Thompson JA, Tan J, Greene CS.
PMID: 26844019
PeerJ. 2016 Jan 21;4:e1621. doi: 10.7717/peerj.1621. eCollection 2016.

Large, publicly available gene expression datasets are often analyzed with the aid of machine learning algorithms. Although RNA-seq is increasingly the technology of choice, a wealth of expression data already exist in the form of microarray data. If machine...

Prenatal predictors of infant self-regulation: the contributions of placental DNA methylation of NR3C1 and neuroendocrine activity.

Frontiers in behavioral neuroscience

Conradt E, Fei M, LaGasse L, Tronick E, Guerin D, Gorman D, Marsit CJ, Lester BM.
PMID: 26074794
Front Behav Neurosci. 2015 May 29;9:130. doi: 10.3389/fnbeh.2015.00130. eCollection 2015.

We examined whether placental DNA methylation of the glucocorticoid receptor gene, NR3C1 was associated with self-regulation and neuroendocrine responses to a social stressor in infancy. Placenta samples were obtained at birth and mothers and their infants (n = 128)...

An Immunofluorescence-Assisted Microfluidic Single Cell Quantitative Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction Analysis of Tumour Cells Separated from Blood.

Journal of circulating biomarkers

Hoshino K, Chung H, Wu CH, Rajendran K, Huang YY, Chen P, Sokolov KV, Kim J, Zhang JXJ.
PMID: 28936247
J Circ Biomark. 2015 Nov 02;4:11. doi: 10.5772/61822. eCollection 2015.

Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) are important indicators of metastatic cancer and may provide critical information for individualized treatment. As CTCs are usually very rare, the techniques to obtain information from very small numbers of cells are crucial. Here, we...

In vivo Cigarette Smoke Exposure Decreases CCL20, SLPI, and BD-1 Secretion by Human Primary Nasal Epithelial Cells.

Frontiers in psychiatry

Jukosky J, Gosselin BJ, Foley L, Dechen T, Fiering S, Crane-Godreau MA.
PMID: 26793127
Front Psychiatry. 2016 Jan 13;6:185. doi: 10.3389/fpsyt.2015.00185. eCollection 2015.

Smokers and individuals exposed to second-hand cigarette smoke have a higher risk of developing chronic sinus and bronchial infections. This suggests that cigarette smoke (CS) has adverse effects on immune defenses against pathogens. Epithelial cells are important in airway...

Fatty acids increase neuronal hypertrophy of Pten knockdown neurons.

Frontiers in molecular neuroscience

Fricano CJ, Despenza T, Frazel PW, Li M, O'Malley AJ, Westbrook GL, Luikart BW.
PMID: 24795563
Front Mol Neurosci. 2014 Apr 23;7:30. doi: 10.3389/fnmol.2014.00030. eCollection 2014.

Phosphatase and tensin homolog (Pten) catalyzes the reverse reaction of PI3K by dephosphorylating PIP3 to PIP2. This negatively regulates downstream Akt/mTOR/S6 signaling resulting in decreased cellular growth and proliferation. Co-injection of a lentivirus knocking Pten down with a control...

An updated h-index measures both the primary and total scientific output of a researcher.

Discoveries (Craiova, Romania)

Bucur O, Almasan A, Zubarev R, Friedman M, Nicolson GL, Sumazin P, Leabu M, Nikolajczyk BS, Avram D, Kunej T, Calin GA, Godwin AK, Adami HO, Zaphiropoulos PG, Richardson DR, Schmitt-Ulms G, Westerblad H, Keniry M, Grau GE, Carbonetto S, Stan RV, Popa-Wagner A, Takhar K, Baron BW, Galardy PJ, Yang F, Data D, Fadare O, Yeo KJ, Gabreanu GR, Andrei S, Soare GR, Nelson MA, Liehn EA.

The growing interest in scientometry stems from ethical concerns related to the proper evaluation of scientific contributions of an author working in a hard science. In the absence of a consensus, institutions may use arbitrary methods for evaluating scientists...

Confidence intervals and bands for the binormal ROC curve revisited.

Journal of applied statistics

Demidenko E.
PMID: 22523442
J Appl Stat. 2012 Jan 01;39(1):67-79. doi: 10.1080/02664763.2011.578616. Epub 2011 Dec 12.

Two types of confidence intervals (CIs) and confidence bands (CBs) for the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve are studied: pointwise CIs and simultaneous CBs. An optimized version of the pointwise CI with the shortest width is developed. A new...
