INNOVATIVE MECHANISMS FOR IMPLEMENTING STATE ECONOMIC POLICY FOR POST-WAR RECONSTRUCTION OF UKRAINE: QUANTUM TRANSFORMATIONS AS A DRIVER OF DEVELOPMENT by Oleksiy Shkuratov, Liudmila Antonova, Roman Dzyuba

“…It has been proven that it is possible to improve the situation only if a balanced state investment policy for quantum transformation of the country is developed and implemented. A road map of the sequence of actions for the formation of the state policy on quantum transformation investment is proposed, the management of which will create a favourable environment for attracting investments and thereby accelerating the quantum transformation of the Ukrainian economy.…”

The value of multiparametric MRI radiomics and machine learning in predicting preoperative Ki-67 expression level in breast cancer by Yan Lu, Long Jin, Ning Ding, Mengjuan Li, Shengnan Yin, Yiding Ji

“…Radiomic features were derived from both the intratumoral and peritumoral regions, extending 5 mm from the tumor boundary, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The MRI sequences employed included T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps. …”

New insights into the N-glycomes of Dictyostelium species by Alba Hykollari, Daniel Malzl, Chunsheng Jin, Carina Eschenbach, Kristína Kianičková, Iain B.H. Wilson, Katharina Paschinger

“…In the present study, we have examined the N-glycans of two other Dictyostelium species, D. purpureum, whose genome is also sequenced, and D. giganteum. The detailed glycomic analysis of their fruiting bodies was based on isomeric separation of the glycan structures by HPLC, followed by mass spectrometry in combination with enzymatic digests and chemical treatments. …”

Transfer of optogenetic vectors into the brain of neonatal animals to study neuron functions during subsequent periods of development by D. A. Lanshakov, U. S. Drozd, T. A. Zapara, N. N. Dygalo

“…Expression of opsins in the cell membrane, followed by the acquisition by the cell of the sensitivity to light is achieved by means of viral vectors, often created on the basis of lentiviral or adeno-associated (AAV) viruses bearing the nucleotide sequence encoding the photo-channel proteins. Inclusion of the cell-specific promoter of interest into the transgene-expression cassette allows opsin to be produced only in the target cells. …”
