Proteomic Characterization of 1000 Human and Murine Neutrophils Freshly Isolated From Blood and Sites of Sterile Inflammation.

Neutrophils are indispensable for defense against pathogens. Injured tissue-infiltrated neutrophils can establish a niche of chronic inflammation and promote degeneration. Studies investigated transcriptome of single-infiltrated neutrophils which could misinterpret molecular states of these post mitotic cells.

Exploring artificial intelligence techniques to research low energy nuclear reactions.

The world urgently needs new sources of clean energy due to a growing global population, rising energy use, and the effects of climate change. Nuclear energy is one of the most promising solutions for meeting the world's energy needs now and in the future. One type of nuclear energy, Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR), has gained interest as a potential clean energy source.

Accurate estimation of the normalized mutual information of multidimensional data.

While the linear Pearson correlation coefficient represents a well-established normalized measure to quantify the inter-relation of two stochastic variables X and Y, it fails for multidimensional variables, such as Cartesian coordinates. Avoiding any assumption about the underlying data, the mutual information I(X, Y) does account for multidimensional correlations. However, unlike the normalized Pearson correlation, it has no upper bound (I ∈ [0, ∞)), i.

Investigating Circadian Gating of Temperature Responsive Genes.

Understanding gene expression dynamics in the context of the time of day and temperature response is an important part of understanding plant thermotolerance in a changing climate. Performing "gating" experiments under constant conditions and light-dark cycles allows users to identify and dissect the contribution of the time of day and circadian clock to the dynamic nature of stress-responsive genes. Here, we describe the design of specific laboratory experiments in plants (Arabidopsis thaliana and bread wheat, Triticum aestivum) to investigate temporal responses to heat (1 h at 37 °C) or cold (3 h at 4 °C), and we include known marker genes that have circadian-gated responses to temperature changes.
