Cellular metabolomics, which involves targeted and untargeted analyses of metabolites in in vitro systems, plays a pivotal role in system biology.It offers insights into cell phenotypes and provides a means to monitor cellular activities.The power of cellular metabolomics stems from its abilities to quantify and identify metabolites in a cellular s
Abstract Background It has been shown previously that human monocytes fed with haemozoin (HZ) or trophozoite-parasitized RBCs displayed increased matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) enzyme activity and protein/mRNA expression and increased TNF production, and showed higher matrix invasion ability.The present study utilized the same experimental mode
The relationships between loneliness and facets of narcissism were investigated based on responses from 696 (46% women) university students.Bivariate correlations revealed small negative correlations between loneliness and the narcissism scales of arrogance and acclaim seeking.A medium positive correlation was between loneliness and reactive anger
Urban land use mapping is critical to understanding human activities in space.The first national mapping result of essential urban land use categories of China (EULUC-China) was released in 2019.However, the overall accuracies in some of the plain cities such as Beijing, Chengdu, and Zhengzhou were lower than 50% because many parcel-based mapping u
Previously we presented Swarm v1, a novel and open source amplicon clustering program that produced fine-scale molecular operational taxonomic units (OTUs), free of arbitrary global clustering thresholds and input-order dependency.Swarm v1 worked with an initial phase that used iterative single-linkage with a local clustering threshold (d), followe
