Intelligent Identification and Features Attribution of Saline-Alkali-Tolerant Rice Varieties Based on Raman Spectroscopy.

Planting rice in saline-alkali land can effectively improve saline-alkali soil and increase grain yield, but traditional identification methods for saline-alkali-tolerant rice varieties require tedious and time-consuming field investigations based on growth indicators by rice breeders. In this study, the Python machine deep learning method was used to analyze the Raman molecular spectroscopy of rice and assist in feature attribution, in order to study a fast and efficient identification method of saline-alkali-tolerant rice varieties. A total of 156 Raman spectra of four rice varieties (two saline-alkali-tolerant rice varieties and two saline-alkali-sensitive rice varieties) were analyzed, and the wave crests were extracted by an improved signal filtering difference method and the feature information of the wave crest was automatically extracted by scipy.

An ultrasensitive disposable sandwich-configuration electrochemical immunosensor based on OMC@AuNPs composites and AuPt-MB for alpha-fetoprotein detection.

Early finding and diagnosis are critical for prevention and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a typical biomarker of HCC. Since AFP level can reflect the severity of HCC, it is essential to ensure the accurate detection of AFP.

Aberrant Methylation of Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling 1 (SOCS1) Gene as a Biomarker for Early Prediction and Diagnosis of Bladder Cancer.

Background: SOCS1 protein, the negative regulatory protein of the Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway, may inhibit signaling of JAK-STAT pathway by several cytokines and has tumor suppressor activity. Methylation of CpG island in the promoter region of SOCS1 gene has often been shown to inactivate the SOCS1 gene in certain human cancers. However, the precise role of SOCS1 in bladder cancer is unclear.

Preventive Effects of Fluoro-Substituted Benzothiadiazole Derivatives and Chitosan Oligosaccharide against the Rice Seedling Blight Induced by .

Rice seedling blight, caused by , significantly affects global rice production levels. Fluoro-substituted benzothiadiazole derivatives (FBT) and chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) are elicitors that can enhance plant resistance to pathogen infection. However, there is a lack of information regarding FBT and COS used as elicitors in rice seedlings blight.

Methylation of the suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 gene (SOCS3) in bladder cancer.

Background: It has been identified consequences of dysregulation of JAK-STAT signalling, particularly in regard to JAK-STAT signalling that has been shown to have roles in the oncogenesis of several cell types. SOCS3 protein, the negative regulatory protein of JAK-STAT signaling pathway, may also plays critical regulatory roles in cancer initiation and progression. SOCS3 promoter hypermethylation has often been identified in human cancers; however, the precise role of SOCS3 in bladder cancer is unclear.
