A Novel Evaluation Strategy to Artificial Neural Network Model Based on Bionics.

With the continuous deepening of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) research, ANN model structure and function are improving towards diversification and intelligence. However, the model is more evaluated from the pros and cons of the problem-solving results and the lack of evaluation from the biomimetic aspect of imitating neural networks is not inclusive enough. Hence, a new ANN models evaluation strategy is proposed from the perspective of bionics in response to this problem in the paper.

Berberine Suppresses EMT in Liver and Gastric Carcinoma Cells through Combination with TGFR Regulating TGF-/Smad Pathway.

Berberine (BBR), a natural alkaloid derived from Coptis, has anticancer activity. Some researchers have found that it could restrain epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of melanoma, neuroblastoma, and other tumor cells. However, it is unclear whether BBR can reverse EMT in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and gastric carcinoma (GC).
