High-Resolution Magic Angle Spinning Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy of Paired Clinical Liver Tissue Samples from Hepatocellular Cancer and Surrounding Region.

The global burden of liver cancer is increasing. Timely diagnosis is important for optimising the limited available treatment options. Understanding the metabolic consequences of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) may lead to more effective treatment options.

MIP-4 is Induced by Bleomycin and Stimulates Cell Migration Partially via Nir-1 Receptor.

Background: CC-chemokine ligand 18 also known as MIP-4 is a chemokine with roles in inflammation and immune responses. It has been shown that MIP-4 is involved in the development of several diseases including lung fibrosis and cancer. How exactly MIP-4 is regulated and exerts its role in lung fibrosis remains unclear.

Estimating the household secondary attack rate and serial interval of COVID-19 using social media.

We propose a method to estimate the household secondary attack rate (hSAR) of COVID-19 in the United Kingdom based on activity on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. Conventional methods of hSAR estimation are resource intensive, requiring regular contact tracing of COVID-19 cases. Our proposed framework provides a complementary method that does not rely on conventional contact tracing or laboratory involvement, including the collection, processing, and analysis of biological samples.
