Comparative Study of Structural and Functional Rearrangements in Skeletal Muscle Mitochondria of SOD1-G93A Transgenic Mice at Pre-, Early-, and Late-Symptomatic Stages of ALS Progr... by Natalia V. Belosludtseva, Anna I. Ilzorkina, Mikhail V. Dubinin, Irina B. Mikheeva, Konstantin N. Belosludtsev

“…Conclusions: Taken together, these results indicate stage-dependent changes in skeletal muscle mitochondrial ultrastructure and functions associated with defective oxidative phosphorylation, impaired calcium homeostasis, and oxidative damage in the SOD1-G93A/low mouse model, which appears to be a promising direction for the development of combination therapies for ALS.…”

Kinase-dependent regulation of ciliary protein transport and its implications for therapy by Taro Chaya, Yuri Ayano, Takahisa Furukawa

“…Ciliary defects cause human diseases, termed ciliopathies, which are characterized by a variety of symptoms, such as developmental and sensory abnormalities. The formation and function of primary cilia depend on intraflagellar transport (IFT), which is a bidirectional protein transport system coordinated by three multi-subunit protein complexes with kinesin and dynein motors along the ciliary axoneme. …”

Nonstationary Superconductivity: Quantum Dissipation and Time-Dependent Ginzburg-Landau Equation by Anatoly A. Barybin

“…Transport equations of the macroscopic superfluid dynamics are revised on the basis of a combination of the conventional (stationary) Ginzburg-Landau equation and Schrödinger's equation for the macroscopic wave function (often called the order parameter) by using the well-known Madelung-Feynman approach to representation of the quantum-mechanical equations in hydrodynamic form. …”

Temporal dependent rate-distortion optimization based on distortion backward propagation by Hongwei GUO, Ce ZHU, Xu YANG, Lei LUO

“…Rate-distortion optimization (RDO) is a crucial technique in block based hybrid video encoders.However, the widely used independent RDO is far from obtaining optimal coding performance.To improve the rate-distortion (R-D) performance of high efficiency video coding (HEVC), a temporal dependent RDO algorithm was proposed.Firstly, the formula to calculate temporal distortion propagation factor was derived by using an exponential R-D function.Then, the coding distortion and motion compensation predicted error were obtained by pre-encoding, and the temporal distortion propagation factor was estimated by using distortion backward propagation.Finally, the Lagrange multiplier and quantization parameter of coding tree unit were adaptively adjusted to optimize bit resources allocation.Experimental results show that compared with the original RDO method in HEVC under the low-delay configuration, the proposed algorithm achieves an average 4.4% bit rate reduction for all test sequences, and up to 13.0% bit rate reduction for test sequence BasketballDrill, at the same reconstructed video quality.…”

Feature dependence graph based source code loophole detection method by Hongyu YANG, Haiyun YANG, Liang ZHANG, Xiang CHENG

“…Given the problem that the existing source code loophole detection methods did not explicitly maintain the semantic information related to the loophole in the source code, which led to the difficulty of feature extraction of loo-phole statements and the high false positive rate of loophole detection, a source code loophole detection method based on feature dependency graph was proposed.First, extracted the candidate loophole statements in the function slice, and gen-erated the feature dependency graph by analyzing the control dependency chain and data dependency chain of the candi-date loophole statements.Secondly, the word vector model was used to generate the initial node representation vector of the feature dependency graph.Finally, a loophole detection neural network oriented to feature dependence graph was constructed, in which the graph learning network learned the heterogeneous neighbor node information of the feature de-pendency graph and the detection network extracted global features and performed loophole detection.The experimental results show that the recall rate and F1 score of the proposed method are improved by 1.50%～22.32% and 1.86%～16.69% respectively, which is superior to the existing method.…”
