abstract        background and objective: various cellular factors affect the process of hiv activity. one of these cellular factors are structures known as microrn that are expected to be involved in controlling hiv replication and infectivity. the expression of one or a set of them may represent the patient's clinical conditions. in this study,  the expression of mir-29a and mir-29b invo...

We introduce aligned hierarchies, a low-dimensional representation for music-based data streams, such as recordings of songs or digitized representations of scores. The aligned hierarchies encode all hierarchical decompositions of repeated elements from a high-dimensional and noisy music-based data stream into one object. These aligned hierarchies can be embedded into a classification space wit...

Acute lung injury (ALI) is an inflammatory pulmonary disease that can easily develop into serious acute respiratory distress syndrome, which has high morbidity and mortality. However, the molecular mechanism of ALI remains unclear, few biomarkers for diagnosis treatment have been identified. In this study, we aimed to identify novel using a bioinformatics approach. Gene expression data were obt...

Systems for the archival of musical documents digitally and development of digital music libraries are currently being researched and developed extensively. However, adapting these systems for the archival and retrieval of Malaysian music materials might not be as straightforward due to the distinct differences in musical structure and modes of non-Western music. This paper covers the motivatio...

p53 is involved in at least three cell cycle checkpoints in normal cells: two in (>,, activated by either DNA damage or by ribonucleotide pool depletion in the absence of damage, and one in metaphase/anaphase activated by an incomplete mitotic spindle. We tested whether any of these checkpoints require the DNA-activated protein kinase (DNAPK), since data indicate that it is activated by damaged...

BACKGROUND Innate immune responses are fine-tuned by small noncoding RNA molecules termed microRNAs (miRs) that modify gene expression in response to the environment. During acute infections, miRs can be secreted in extracellular vesicles (EV) to facilitate cell-to-cell genetic communication. The purpose of this study was to characterize the baseline population of miRs secreted in EVs in the ai...
