Antisense oligonucleotides-based approaches for the treatment of multiple myeloma.

Multiple myeloma (MM), a hematological malignancy which affects the monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow, is in rising incidence around the world, accounting for approximately 2 % of newly diagnosed cancer cases in the US, Australia, and Western Europe. Despite the progress made in the last few years in the available therapeutic options (e.g.

RUO nanoparticle-decorated MWCNTS synthesized using a sonochemical method as reinforcing agents for PEI composite membranes.

This work presents a new and facile synthesis approach for multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) decorated with ruthenium oxide (RuO) nanoparticles using a simple and efficient sonochemical method. The strong interaction and homogenous distribution of RuO nanoparticles on the surface of MWCNTs were revealed by Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The presence of metal oxide nanoparticles anchored onto the surface of MWCNTs was further confirmed by X-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis.

Commercially available bioinks and state-of-the-art lab-made formulations for bone tissue engineering: A comprehensive review.

Bioprinting and bioinks are two of the game changers in bone tissue engineering. This review presents different bioprinting technologies including extrusion-based, inkjet-based, laser-assisted, light-based, and hybrid technologies with their own strengths and weaknesses. This review will aid researchers in the selection and assessment of the bioink; the discussion ranges from commercially available bioinks to custom lab-made formulations mainly based on natural polymers, such as agarose, alginate, gelatin, collagen, and chitosan, designed for bone tissue engineering.

Revisiting climate impacts of an AMOC slowdown: dependence on freshwater locations in the North Atlantic.

The key locations of freshwater input driving Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) slowdown and their climate responses remain inconclusive. Using a state-of-the-art global climate model, we conduct freshwater hosing experiments to reexamine AMOC sensitivity and its climate impacts. The Irminger basin emerges as the most effective region for additional freshwater fluxes, causing the greatest AMOC weakening.

Cytometry masked autoencoder: An accurate and interpretable automated immunophenotyper.

Single-cell cytometry data are crucial for understanding the role of the immune system in diseases and responses to treatment. However, traditional methods for annotating cytometry data face challenges in scalability, robustness, and accuracy. We propose a cytometry masked autoencoder (cyMAE), which automates immunophenotyping tasks including cell type annotation.
