AI Article Synopsis

  • Genetic screens are used to study biological pathways like membrane trafficking.
  • CRISPR/Cas9 technology has improved the use of genetic screens in diploid models, particularly in cultured mammalian cells.
  • The protocols provided are for creating custom CRISPR libraries, useful for both new model organisms without existing libraries and for focused research needs.

Article Abstract

Genetic screens are a classic approach to dissecting biological pathways including membrane trafficking. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 have enabled the utility of this approach in diploid models, including cultured mammalian cells. Here, we present detailed protocols for generating custom CRISPR libraries. These methods are useful for generating genome-wide libraries for new model organisms that lack an existing genome-wide library, and for generating smaller focused libraries.

Objective: Aim: The aim of the article is to study the therapeutic effect and pharmacological characteristics of using fruits, berries, and nuts in ancient medicine, expanding and deepening knowledge in the history of medicine.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The study material was Medicinae ex oleribus et pomis, the work of Quintus Gargilius Martialis, a third-century Roman writer, a systematizer of rules for cultivating and medical application of over 60 types of vegetables and fruits. The methodological basis of the research is a set of general scientific and special research methods, including analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, historical, interdisciplinary, descriptive methods, and the method of contextual analysis.

Integrating large language models (LLMs) into health care holds substantial potential to enhance clinical workflows and care delivery. However, LLMs also pose serious risks if integration is not thoughtfully executed, with complex challenges spanning accuracy, accessibility, privacy, and regulation. Proprietary commercial LLMs (eg, GPT-4 [OpenAI], Claude 3 Sonnet and Claude 3 Opus [Anthropic], Gemini [Google]) have received much attention from researchers in the medical domain, including radiology.

Background: Management of children with functional abdominal pain (FAP) or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is difficult in primary care. When education and reassurance do not alleviate symptoms, primary care physicians lack treatment options for children with FAP or IBS. Home-based guided hypnotherapy is a promising treatment because of its accessibility.
