The task of named entity recognition (NER) plays a crucial role in extracting cybersecurity-related information. Existing approaches for cybersecurity entity extraction predominantly rely on manual labelling data, resulting in labour-intensive processes due to the lack of a cybersecurity-specific corpus. In this paper, we propose an improved self-training-based distant label denoising method for cybersecurity entity extraction.

Cancer cells sustain cholesterol biogenesis for their proliferation and microenvironment reprograming even when sterols are abundant. However, efficacy of targeting cholesterol metabolism for cancer treatment is always compromised.

We have reported that 14-3-3σ is negatively associated with HIF-1α expression; however, its role in hypoxia-induced tumor progression remains poorly characterized. Here we show that 14-3-3σ suppresses cancer hypoxia-induced metastasis and angiogenesis in colorectal cancer (CRC).
