The spatiotemporal dynamics of spatially variable genes in developing mouse brain revealed by a novel computational scheme.

To understand how brain regions form and work, it is important to explore the spatially variable genes (SVGs) enriched in specific brain regions during development. Spatial transcriptomics techniques provide opportunity to select SVGs in the high-throughput way. However, previous methods neglected the ranking order and combinatorial effect of SVGs, making them difficult to automatically select the high-priority SVGs from spatial transcriptomics data.

Effect of Withdrawal Rate on Solidification Microstructures of DD9 Single Crystal Turbine Blade.

Single crystal superalloys are widely used in the manufacturing of turbine blades for aero-engines due to their superior performance at high temperatures. The directional solidification process is a key technology for producing single crystal turbine blades with excellent properties. In the directional solidification process, withdrawal rate is one of the critical parameters for microstructure formation and will ultimately determine the blade's properties.

Expression and prognostic significance of unique ULBPs in pancreatic cancer.

Background: Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal cancers worldwide, due to the lack of efficient therapy and difficulty in early diagnosis. ULBPs have been shown to behave as important protectors with prognostic significance in various cancers.

Materials And Methods: Immunohistochemistry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to explore the expression of ULBPs in cancer tissue and in serum, while survival analysis was used to evaluate the subsequent clinical value of ULBPs.
