Harnessing Spectral Libraries From AVIRIS-NG Data for Precise PFT Classification: A Deep Learning Approach.

The generation of spectral libraries using hyperspectral data allows for the capture of detailed spectral signatures, uncovering subtle variations in plant physiology, biochemistry, and growth stages, marking a significant advancement over traditional land cover classification methods. These spectral libraries enable improved forest classification accuracy and more precise differentiation of plant species and plant functional types (PFTs), thereby establishing hyperspectral sensing as a critical tool for PFT classification. This study aims to advance the classification and monitoring of PFTs in Shoolpaneshwar wildlife sanctuary, Gujarat, India using Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) and machine learning techniques.

EV-idence uncovered: kidney-on-chip study links circulating EVs of cardiorenal syndrome to renal pathology.

The intertwined nature of cardiac and renal failure, where dysfunction in one organ predicts a poor outcome in the other, has long driven the interest in uncovering the exact molecular links between the two. Elucidating the mechanisms driving Cardiorenal Syndrome (CRS) will enable the development of targeted therapies that disrupt this detrimental cycle, potentially improving outcomes for patients. A recent study by Chatterjee .

Orofacial Cleft and Its Association with Consanguineous Marriage and Other Risk Factors: A Case-control Study from a Tertiary Care Hospital in Jammu Province.

Background: Orofacial cleft is among the most common craniofacial malformations. It presents a complex and multifactorial etiology that involves genetic and environmental factors. One of the etiological factors is consanguinity (marriage between blood relatives).

Methyl donor ameliorates CCl-induced liver fibrosis by inhibiting inflammation, and fibrosis through the downregulation of EGFR and DNMT-1 expression.

Methyl donors regulate the one-carbon metabolism and have significant potential to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the protective effect of methyl donors against CCl-induced liver fibrosis. Liver fibrosis was induced in male Sprague Dawley rats using CCl at a dose of 1 ml/kg (twice a week for a 4-week, via intraperitoneal route).

Autophagy protein Atg7 is essential for maintaining malaria parasite cellular homeostasis and organelle biogenesis.

parasites have a complex life cycle that transitions between mosquito and mammalian hosts, and undergo continuous cellular remodeling to adapt to various drastic environments. Following hepatocyte invasion, the parasite discards superfluous organelles for intracellular replication, and the remnant organelles undergo extensive branching and mature into hepatic merozoites. Autophagy is a ubiquitous eukaryotic process that permits the recycling of intracellular components.
