Hyperspectral images have been increasingly employed in the agricultural sector for seed classification for different purposes. In the present paper we propose a new methodology based on HSI in the near infrared range (HSI-NIR) to distinguish conventional from transgenic cotton seeds. Three different chemometric approaches, one pixel-based and two object-based, using partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were built and their performances were compared considering the pros and cons of each approach. Specificity and sensitivity values ranged from 0.78-0.92 and 0.62-0.93, respectively, for the different approaches.

During cancer peritoneal metastasis (PM), conventional antigen-presenting cells (dendritic cells, macrophages) promote tumorigenesis and immunosuppression in peritoneal cavity. While intraperitoneal immunotherapy (IPIT) has been used in clinical investigations to relieve PM, the limited knowledge of peritoneal immunocytes has hindered the development of therapeutic IPIT. Here, a dendritic cell-independent, next-generation IPIT is described that activates peritoneal cavity B (PerC B) cell subsets for intraperitoneal anti-tumor immunity via exogenous antigen presentation.

Aptamers and aptamer-drug conjugates (ApDCs) have shown some success as targeted therapies in cancer theranostics. However, their stability in complex media and their capacity to evade lysosomal breakdown still need improvement. To address these challenges, we herein developed a one-step self-assembly strategy to improve the stability of aptamers or ApDCs, while simultaneously enhancing their delivery performance and therapeutic efficiency through a lysosome-independent pathway.

The technologies used for the characterization and quantitative analysis of dairy products based on Raman spectroscopy have developed rapidly in recent years. At the level of spectral data, there are not only traditional Raman spectra but also two-dimensional correlation spectra, which can provide rich compositional and characteristic information about the samples. In terms of spectral preprocessing, there are various methods, such as normalization, wavelet denoising, and feature extraction.

Blocking mitosis is a promising strategy to induce tumor cell death. However, AMPK- and PFKFB3-mediated glycolysis can maintain ATP supply and help tumor cells overcome antimitotic drugs. Inhibiting glycolysis provides an opportunity to decrease the resistance of tumor cells to antimitotic drugs.

Multiple receptor analysis-based DNA molecular computation has been developed to mitigate the off-target effect caused by nonspecific expression of cell membrane receptors. However, it is quite difficult to involve nanobodies into molecular computation with programmed recognition order because of the "always-on" response mode and the inconvenient molecular programming. Here we propose a spatial segregation-based molecular computing strategy with a shielded internal computing layer termed DNA nano-phage (DNP) to program nanobody into DNA molecular computation and build a series of kinetic models to elucidate the mechanism of microenvironment-confinement.
