Angle-of-Attack (AOA) and angle-of-sideslip (AOS) are critical flight parameters affecting the flight safety, and their accuracy and reliability directly impact the operating status and performance of some significant airborne systems. To enhance the redundancy and accuracy of AOA and AOS, this article investigates the problem of the airflow angles estimation and complementary filter design for civil aircraft. Specifically, an extended Kalman filter based AOA and AOS estimation method considering acceleration correction is developed to increase the redundancy.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of miR-135a in regulating neuronal survival in cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury using an in vitro cellular model induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R). Our results showed that miR-135a expression was significantly decreased in neurons with OGD/R treatment.

Recently, IRF6 was shown to be upregulated after TBI and could promote neuronal apoptosis under oxidative stress conditions. This study aimed to investigate the role of IRF6 in traumatic neuronal injury (TNI) in primary cultured mouse cortical neurons.

SEPT7 is documented as a cytoskeletal protein with GTPase activity and involved in glioma progression. However, the underlying mechanism of SEPT7 in glioma invasion remains unresolved.
