Identification of p53 and Its Isoforms in Human Breast Carcinoma Cells by Zorka Milićević, Vladan Bajić, Lada Živković, Jelena Kasapović, Uroš Andjelković, Biljana Spremo-Potparević

“…These observations support the view that the nucleolus is involved directly in the mediation of p53 function or indirectly by the control of the localization of p53 interplayers. p53 expressed in the nuclear fraction of breast cancer cells revealed a wide spectrum of isoforms. p53 isoforms ΔNp53 (47 kDa) and Δ133p53β (35 kDa), known as dominant-negative repressors of p53 function, were detected as the most predominant variants in nuclei of invasive breast carcinoma cells. …”

Hardware Efficient Speech Enhancement With Noise Aware Multi-Target Deep Learning by Salinna Abdullah, Majid Zamani, Andreas Demosthenous

“…For optimal speech denoising, the SE system, trained with multiple-target joint learning, switches between mapping-based, masking-based, or complementary processing, depending on the level of noise contamination detected. Optimisation techniques, including ternary quantisation, structural pruning, efficient sparse matrix representation and cost-effective approximations for complex computations, were implemented to reduce area, memory, and power requirements. …”
