discriminative power of visual words, thus improving precision; on the other hand, the introduction of multiple codebooks corrects quantization artifacts, thus improving recall. Extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets demonstrate that tensor index significantly improves the baseline approach. Moreover, when incorporating methods such as Hamming embedding, we achieve competitive performances compared to the state-of-the-art ones.

HAUS8 regulates RLR‑VISA antiviral signaling positively by targeting VISA
2018
Molecular Medicine Reports
Mitochondrial anti-viral signaling protein (VISA), additionally termed MAVS, IPS-1 and Cardif, is located at the outer membrane of mitochondria and is an essential adaptor in the Rig-like receptor (RLRs) signaling pathway. Upon viral infection, activated RLRs interact with VISA on mitochondria, forming a RLR-VISA platform, leading to the recruitment of different TRAF family members, including TRAF3, TRAF2 and TRAF6. This results in the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of interferon

... latory factors 3 and 7 (IRF3/IRF7) by TANK binding kinase 1 (TBK1) and/or IKKε, as well as activation of NF-κB, to induce type I interferons (IFNs) and pro-inflammatory cytokines. It remains to be elucidated how VISA functions as a scaffold for protein complex assembly in mitochondria to regulate RLR-VISA antiviral signaling. In the present study, it was demonstrated that HAUS augmin like complex subunit 8 (HAUS8) augments the RLR-VISA-dependent antiviral signaling pathway by targeting the VISA complex. Co-immunoprecipitation verified that HAUS8 was associated with VISA and the VISA signaling complex components retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) and TBK1 when the RLR-VISA signaling pathway was activated. The data demonstrated that overexpression of HAUS8 significantly promoted the activity of the transcription factors NF-κB, IRF3 and the IFN-β promoter induced by Sendai virus-mediated RLR-VISA signaling. HAUS8 increased the polyubiquitination of VISA, RIG-I and TBK1. Knockdown of HAUS8 inhibited the activation of the transcription factors IRF-3, NF-κB and the IFN-β promoter triggered by Sendai virus. Collectively, these results demonstrated that HAUS8 may function as a positive regulator of RLR-VISA dependent antiviral signaling by targeting the VISA complex, providing a novel regulatory mechanism of antiviral responses.
MicroRNA-210 promotes angiogenesis in acute myocardial infarction

Molecular Medicine Reports
has been reported to be associated with angiogenesis and may serve important roles in acute myocardial infarction (AMI), which remain unclear. The present study sought to evaluate the efficacy of miRNA-210 in AMI and to examine the potential associated mechanisms. AMI models were established in Sprague-Dawley rats. The expression of miRNA-210 was upregulated via transfection with lentivirus-mediated agonists and quantitative analysis was performed using the reverse transcription-quantitative

... ymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Immunoblotting and RT-qPCR were separately used to detect the expression levels of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in heart samples, while only the protein expression level of β-myosin heavy chain (β-MHC) was assessed. The expression of HGF in human umbilical vein endothelial cells under hypoxic conditions was silenced by transfecting with small interfering RNA, as demonstrated by the determination of associated protein expression levels. The microvessel density (MVD) of the infarcted myocardium was selected to be the angiogenesis efficacy endpoint, which was evaluated by platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule immunostaining. Markedly increased expression of HGF was observed among the AMI rats receiving miRNA-210 agonists, demonstrated via quantitative analyses using RT-qPCR or western blotting. Promotion of angiogenesis was observed with the increased MVD. Improved cardiac function in the rats was subsequently noted, as they exhibited improved left ventricular fractional shortening and left ventricular ejection fraction percentages, which may result from improved cardiac contractility indicated by attenuating the increase in β-MHC protein expression. Overexpression of miRNA-210 appeared to be an advantageous therapeutic tool for treating AMI, primarily due to its promoting effects on angiogenesis in the infarcted myocardium by stimulating HGF expression and inducing improved left ventricular remodeling, leading to improved cardiac function.

Sunflower response to potassium fertilization and nutrient requirement estimation
2018
Journal of Integrative Agriculture
Field experiments were conducted in oil and edible sunflower to study the effects of potassium (K) fertilization on achene yield and quality, and to estimate the nutrient internal efficiency (IE) and nutrient requirement in sunflower production. All trials in edible sunflower and 75% trials in oil sunflower showed positive yield responses to K fertilization. Compared with control without K fertilization, the application of K increased achene yield by an average of 406 kg ha -1 for oil sunflower

... and 294 kg ha -1 for edible sunflower. K application also increased 1 000-achene weight and kernel rate of both oil and edible sunflower. K fertilization improved the contents of oil, oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid in achenes of oil sunflower, and increased contents of oil, total unsaturated fatty acid and protein in achenes of edible sunflower. The average agronomic efficiency of K fertilizer was 4.0 for oil sunflower and 3.0 kg achene kg -1 K 2 O for edible sunflower. The average IE of N, P and K under balanced NPK fertilization was 22.9, 82.8, and 9.9 kg kg -1 for oil sunflower, and 27.3, 138.9, and 14.3 kg kg -1 for edible sunflower. These values were equivalent to 45.5, 14.1, and 108.1 kg, and 39.0, 8.0, and 71.7 kg of N, P and K, respectively, in above-ground dry matter required for production per ton of achenes. The average harvest index of N, P and K was 0.47, 0.56 and 0.05 kg kg -1 in oil sunflower, and 0.58, 0.58 and 0.14 kg kg -1 in edible sunflower.
Three-Dimensional Face Reconstruction Using Multi-View-Based Bilinear Model
2019
Sensors
Face reconstruction is a popular topic in 3D vision system. However, traditional methods often depend on monocular cues, which contain few feature pixels and only use their location information while ignoring a lot of textural information. Furthermore, they are affected by the accuracy of the feature extraction method and occlusion. Here, we propose a novel facial reconstruction framework that accurately extracts the 3D shapes and poses of faces from images captured at multi-views. It extends

... e traditional method using the monocular bilinear model to the multi-view-based bilinear model by incorporating the feature prior constraint and the texture constraint, which are learned from multi-view images. The feature prior constraint is used as a shape prior to allowing us to estimate accurate 3D facial contours. Furthermore, the texture constraint extracts a high-precision 3D facial shape where traditional methods fail because of their limited number of feature points or the mostly texture-less and texture-repetitive nature of the input images. Meanwhile, it fully explores the implied 3D information of the multi-view images, which also enhances the robustness of the results. Additionally, the proposed method uses only two or more uncalibrated images with an arbitrary baseline, estimating calibration and shape simultaneously. A comparison with the state-of-the-art monocular bilinear model-based method shows that the proposed method has a significantly higher level of accuracy.
Homogeneity Test of Ratio of Two Proportions in Stratified Bilateral Data
2018
Figshare
Homogeneity is a nonnegligible condition in the statistical analysis of the stratified bilateral data. The correlation between responses from two paired body parts should be taken into account to avoid biased or misleading results. In this article, we derive four test statistics (i.e., likelihood ratio statistic TL, Wald-type statistic TW, and score statistics TSCa and TSCb) for testing common ratios of two proportions across strata under the assumption of equal correlation coefficient within

... ng cancer. A total of 297 primers, composed of 99 paired forward and reverse amplification primers and 99 matched extension primers, were designed using Assay Design software. The detection method was established by analyzing eight cell lines and six lung cancer specimens. The proposed method was then validated through comparisons by using a LungCarta TM kit. The sensitivity and specificity of the proposed method were evaluated by directly sequencing EGFR and KRAS genes in 100 lung cancer cases. Results: The proposed method was able to detect multiplex genetic mutations in lung cancer cell lines. This finding was consistent with the observations on previously reported mutations. The proposed method can also detect such mutations in clinical lung cancer specimens. This result was consistent with the observations with LungCarta TM kit. However, an FGFR2 mutation was detected only through the proposed method. The measured sensitivity and specificity were 100% and 96.3%, respectively. Conclusions: The proposed MassARRAY technology-based multiplex method can detect genetic mutations in Chinese lung cancer patients. Therefore, the proposed method can be applied to detect mutations in other cancer tissues.
SRSF3 functions as an oncogene in colorectal cancer by regulating the expression of ArhGAP30
2020
Cancer Cell International
Splicing factor SRSF3 is an oncogene and overexpressed in various kinds of cancers, however, the function and mechanism involved in colorectal cancer (CRC) remained unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between SRSF3 and carcinogenesis and progression of CRC. The expression of SRSF3 in CRC tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. The proliferation and invasion rate was analyzed by CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, transwell invasion assay and xenograft

... . The expression of selected genes was detected by western blot or real time PCR. SRSF3 is overexpressed in CRC tissues and its high expression was associated with CRC differentiation, lymph node invasion and AJCC stage. Upregulation of SRSF3 was also associated with shorter overall survival. Knockdown of SRSF3 in CRC cells activated ArhGAP30/Ace-p53 and decreased cell proliferation, migration and survival; while ectopic expression of SRSF3 attenuated ArhGAP30/Ace-p53 and increases cell proliferation, migration and survival. Targeting SRSF3 in xenograft tumors suppressed tumor progression in vivo. Taken together, our data identify SRSF3 as a regulator for ArhGAP30/Ace-p53 in CRC, and highlight potential prognostic and therapeutic significance of SRSF3 in CRC.
