Advancing pancreatic cancer research and therapeutics: the transformative role of organoid technology by Jihao Xu, Minh Duc Pham, Vincenzo Corbo, Mariano Ponz-Sarvise, Tobiloba Oni, Daniel Öhlund, Chang-Il Hwang

“…We explore the applications of pancreatic organoids in dissecting the tumor microenvironment (TME); elucidating cancer progression, metastasis, and drug resistance mechanisms; and personalizing therapeutic strategies. By overcoming the limitations of traditional 2D cultures and animal models, the use of pancreatic organoids has significantly accelerated translational research, which is promising for improving diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in clinical settings, ultimately aiming to improve the outcomes of patients with pancreatic cancer.…”

Game Theoretic Request Scheduling with Queue Priority in Video Sensor Networks by Jia Zhao, Jianfeng Guan, Changqiao Xu, Wei Su

“…At the Nash Equilibrium Point (NEP), the normal data requesters optimize mean delay, the abnormal data requesters optimize mean blocking rate, and the heads balance the request load on them. Numerical analysis shows that the game strategic scheduling outperforms other scheduling methods that consider single objective (minimum delay or minimum blocking rate).…”
