Objective: This study aims to analyze adverse drug events (ADE) related to romosozumab from the second quarter of 2019 to the third quarter of 2023 from FAERS database.
Methods: The ADE data related to romosozumab from 2019 Q2 to 2023 Q3 were collected. After data normalization, four signal strength quantification algorithms were used: ROR (Reporting Odds Ratios), PRR (Proportional Reporting Ratios), BCPNN (Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network), and EBGM (Empirical Bayesian Geometric Mean).
Melanoma, one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide, frequently metastasizes to the lung and bones. Tumor-associated macrophages play essential roles in melanoma metastasis but the underlying mechanism remains obscure. We previously demonstrated that specific knockout of Ddr2, a receptor tyrosine kinase, exacerbates systemic inflammation via modulating macrophage repolarization.

Background: Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic bone disease characterized by reduced bone mass and deterioration of bone microstructure, leading to increased bone fragility. Platelets can take up and release cytokines, and a high platelet count has been associated with low bone density. Obesity is strongly associated with OP, and adipose tissue can influence platelet function by secreting adipokines.

ROS-induced oxidative stress plays an important role in osteoporosis. However, the biomarkers and molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress are still unclear.

However, the molecular mechanisms triggering NAc neuroinflammation in depression have not been fully elucidated. Progranulin (PGRN) is a multifunctional growth factor that is linked to the innate immune response and inflammation, and PGRN plays a key role in neurodegenerative diseases such as frontotemporal dementia (FTD).

In this work, alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) were identified from Meyerozyma guilliermondii SC1103 and were heterologously expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the synthesis of BHMF from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Of recombinant strains constructed, S.

An accurate and robust method for poly(A) signals (PASs) identification is not only desired for the purpose of better transcripts' end annotation, but can also help us gain a deeper insight of the underlying regulatory mechanism. Although many methods have been proposed for PAS recognition, most of them are PAS motif- and human-specific, which leads to high risks of overfitting, low generalization power, and inability to reveal the connections between the underlying mechanisms of different mammals.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFImage reconstruction under multiple light scattering is crucial in a number of applications such as diffraction tomography. The reconstruction problem is often formulated as a nonconvex optimization, where a nonlinear measurement model is used to account for multiple scattering and regularization is used to enforce prior constraints on the object. In this paper, we propose a powerful alternative to this optimization-based view of image reconstruction by designing and training a deep convolutional neural network that can invert multiple scattered measurements to produce a high-quality image of the refractive index.
