microRNAs (miRNA), as tumor suppressors or oncogenes, are involved in modulating cancer cell behavior, including cell proliferation and apoptosis. The miR-140-5p acts as a tumor suppressor in several tumors, but the role of miR-140-5p in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) remains unclear. Here, we investigated the suppression of miR-140-5p in CML patients and CML cell lines using quantitative PCR (qPCR) and fluorescence hybridization (FISH).

Article Synopsis
  • - The paper explores a method for testing calcium and magnesium levels in tobacco using Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy combined with Least Squares-Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM) modeling, analyzing 500 tobacco samples from China.
  • - Monte-Carlo cross validation was employed to fine-tune spectral preprocessing methods, and the final models yielded high determination coefficients for predicting calcium (Rc(2) = 0.9755) and magnesium (Rc(2) = 0.9961), outperforming traditional Partial Least Squares (PLS) models.
  • - The entire process of NIR scanning and data analysis for individual samples was quick, taking only seconds, demonstrating the potential of this method for efficient and accurate tobacco
