Islet transplantation is a promising strategy for diabetes mellitus treatment as it can recapitulate endogenous insulin secretion and provide long-term glycemic control.Islet models constructed in biomaterial scaffolds that reproduce biological characteristics of native islets is a feasible option to circumvent the dilemma of donor shortage and the
Eclipta grows aggressively in containers and can outcompete nursery crops for water, nutrients, and light.Plants flower in as little as five weeks after germination and produce thousands of seeds over the course of a growing season, and stem stop and safety switch wire fragments left on the soil or media surface following hand-weeding or cultivatio
Probiotics have been used successfully to promote human and animal health, but only limited studies have focused on using probiotics to improve the health of hosts of different age.Canine microbiome studies may be predictive of results in humans because of the high structural and functional similarity between dog and human microbiomes.A total of 90
Today, Computed tomography (CT) is one of the high efficient tools in medical science which helps to diagnose the human body.The presence of noise may degrade the visual quality of the CT images, especially for low contrast images.Therefore, we propose a method based on the modification of total variation (TV) Agitator Cap for noise suppression in
Abstract Background The pathophysiological causes of kidney disease are not fully understood.Here we show that the integration of genome-wide genetic, transcriptomic, and proteomic association studies can nominate causal determinants of kidney function and damage.Results Through transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) in kidney cortex, kidney
