Background: The development of precision medicine is essential for personalized treatment and improved clinical outcome, whereas biomarkers are critical for the success of precision therapies.
Aim: To investigate whether iCEMIGE (integration of CEll-morphometrics, MIcro biome, and GEne biomarker signatures) improves risk stratification of breast cancer (BC) patients.
Methods: We used our recently developed machine learning technique to identify cellular morphometric biomarkers (CMBs) from the whole histological slide images in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) breast cancer (TCGA-BRCA) cohort.
Secreted angiopoietin/angiopoietin-like (/) proteins are involved in many biological processes. However, the role of these proteins in human breast cancers (BCs) remains largely unclear. Here, we conducted integrated omics analyses to evaluate the clinical impact of / proteins and to elucidate their biological functions.

As part of an effort to determine the inhibitory effects of plant-based extracts and pure compounds, seven commercially available cherry tomato varieties were hand-peeled, freeze-dried, and pounded into powders. The anti-trichomonad inhibitory activities of these peel powders at 0.
