Microarray imaging is considered as an important tool for large scale analysis of gene expression. The accuracy of the gene expression depends on the experiment itself and further image processing. It's well known that the image analysis introduced during the experiment will greatly affect the accuracy of the gene expression. Microarray image analysis plays a potentially-arge impact on the gene detecting subsequent analysis (image segmentation, spot intensity and spot intensity extraction). In this paper, based on the characters of microarray images, the methods of microarray images' denoising and automatic-identification of the spot are reviewed.

Background/objectives: Loss-of-function chymotrypsin C (CTRC) variants increase the risk for chronic pancreatitis (CP) by reducing protective pancreatic CTRC activity. Variants in the 5' upstream region that includes the promoter might affect CTRC expression but have not been investigated to date. The aim of the present study was to address this knowledge gap.

Personalized medicine is an emerging field that provides novel approaches to disease's early diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and prognosis based on the patient's criteria in gene expression, environmental factors, lifestyle, and diet. To date, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a significant global health burden, with an increasing incidence and significant death rates, despite advancements in surveillance, diagnosis, and therapeutic approaches. The majority of HCC lesions develop in patients with liver cirrhosis, carrying the risks of mortality associated with both the tumor burden and the cirrhosis.

Purpose: This investigation was conducted to elucidate the effects of eugenol on bladder contractility through experimental and in silico approaches.
Methods: To assess the impact of eugenol on muscular contractility, longitudinal strips of bladder tissue, measuring 2 mm by 6 mm, were mounted in perfusion chambers connected to an isometric force transducer. Furthermore, molecular docking studies were conducted to explore the potential of eugenol to target the M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M3R) and voltage-operated calcium channels (VOCCs) in muscle cells, utilizing in silico techniques.

Introduction: High-density Wheat 660 K and 90 K SNP arrays are powerful tools for understanding the genetic basis of wheat traits. However, their inconsistantly physical positions that were caused by different versions of Chinese Spring genome during developing arrays are confused and inconvenient for further application.
Objective: With the repid development of wheat geonome sequencing, we aim to reconciliate Wheat 660 K and 90 K SNP arrays in modern cultivar and reveal the genetic basis of dough rheological properties in bread wheat.

Aims: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterized by unexplained left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) with key pathologic processes including myocardial necrosis, fibrosis, inflammation, and hypertrophy, which are involved in heart failure (HF), stroke, and even sudden death. Our aim was to explore the communication network among various cells in the heart of transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery induced HCM mice.
Materials And Methods: Single-cell RNA-seq data of GSE137167 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.
