Exploiting Synchronized Lyrics And Vocal Features For Music Emotion Detection (2019)

One of the key points in music recommendation is authoring engaging playlists according to sentiment and emotions. While previous works were mostly based on audio for music discovery and playlists generation, we take advantage of our synchronized lyrics dataset to combine text representations and music features in a novel way; we therefore introduce the Synchronized Lyrics Emotion Dataset. Unlike other approaches that randomly exploited the audio samples and the whole text, our data is split according to the temporal information provided by the synchronization between lyrics and audio. This work shows a comparison between text-based and audio-based deep learning classification models using different techniques from Natural Language Processing and Music Information Retrieval domains. From the experiments on audio we conclude that using vocals only, instead of the whole audio data improves the overall performances of the audio classifier. In the lyrics experiments we exploit the state-of-the-art word representations applied to the main Deep Learning architectures available in literature. In our benchmarks the results show how the Bilinear LSTM classifier with Attention based on fastText word embedding performs better than the CNN applied on audio.
Reduced Epithelial Expression of Secretory Component in Small Airways Correlates with Airflow Obstruction in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (2001)

The epithelial polymeric immunoglobulin receptor/transmembrane secretory component (pIgR/SC) transports into secretions polymeric immunoglobulin A (pIgA), which is considered the first line of defense of the respiratory tract. The present study, done with quantitative immunohistochemistry, evaluated epithelial expression of secretory component (SC) and Clara cell protein (CC16) and neutrophil infiltration into the airways of eight patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who were undergoing lung transplantation, as compared with these processes in six nonsmoking patients with pulmonary hypertension who were used as controls and in lung specimens from five smokers without chronic bronchitis. Staining for SC was significantly decreased in the COPD patients as compared with the controls, both in large (mean optical density [MOD]: 23.4 [range: 21.1 to 27.8] versus 42.2 [range: 28.2 to 49.3], p = 0.003) and in small airways (MOD: 30.8 [range: 20.3 to 39.4] versus 41.5 [range: 39.2 to 46.2], p = 0.003). SC expression in small airways correlated strongly with functional parameters such as FEV1 (Kendall's tau (K) = 0.76, p = 0.008), FVC (K = 0.64, p = 0.03), and midexpiratory flow at 50% of VC (MEF50) (K = 0.74, p = 0.01). The reduced expression of SC in large airways correlated with neutrophil infiltration in submucosal glands (K = -0.47, p = 0.03). Expression of CC16 in the bronchial epithelium of COPD patients was also significantly decreased as compared with that of controls, especially in small airways (MOD: 28.3 [range: 26.8 to 32.4] versus 45.8 [range: 40.7 to 56.0], p = 0.002), but no correlation was observed with lung function tests. In conclusion, this study shows that reduced expression of SC in airway epithelium is associated with airflow obstruction and neutrophil infiltration in severe COPD.
AtomNet: A Deep Convolutional Neural Network for Bioactivity Prediction in Structure-based Drug Discovery (2015)

Deep convolutional neural networks comprise a subclass of deep neural networks (DNN) with a constrained architecture that leverages the spatial and temporal structure of the domain they model. Convolutional networks achieve the best predictive performance in areas such as speech and image recognition by hierarchically composing simple local features into complex models. Although DNNs have been used in drug discovery for QSAR and ligand-based bioactivity predictions, none of these models have benefited from this powerful convolutional architecture. This paper introduces AtomNet, the first structure-based, deep convolutional neural network designed to predict the bioactivity of small molecules for drug discovery applications. We demonstrate how to apply the convolutional concepts of feature locality and hierarchical composition to the modeling of bioactivity and chemical interactions. In further contrast to existing DNN techniques, we show that AtomNet's application of local convolutional filters to structural target information successfully predicts new active molecules for targets with no previously known modulators. Finally, we show that AtomNet outperforms previous docking approaches on a diverse set of benchmarks by a large margin, achieving an AUC greater than 0.9 on 57.8% of the targets in the DUDE benchmark.
BI-DIRECTIONAL PROTEIN TRANSPORT BETWEEN THE ER AND GOLGI (2004)

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi comprise the first two steps in protein secretion. Vesicular carriers mediate a continuous flux of proteins and lipids between these compartments, reflecting the transport of newly synthesized proteins out of the ER and the retrieval of escaped ER residents and vesicle machinery. Anterograde and retrograde transport is mediated by distinct sets of cytosolic coat proteins, the COPII and COPI coats, respectively, which act on the membrane to capture cargo proteins into nascent vesicles. We review the mechanisms that govern coat recruitment to the membrane, cargo capture into a transport vesicle, and accurate delivery to the target organelle.

Effects of interleukin-6 on in vitro cell attachment, migration and invasion of human ovarian carcinoma. (1997)

High levels of IL-6 have been observed in ascitic fluid in patients with ovarian cancer. In this study, we examined the effects of IL-6 on in vitro invasiveness of human ovarian cancer cells. Human ovarian cancer cells, NOM1 and SKOV, were used. Cell attachment to Matrigel, migration, and invasion were examined with or without IL-6. Zymography was performed to analyze gelatinase production by these cells. NOM1 cell attachment was increased by IL-6 (0 to 10 ng/ml). In a migration assay, IL-6 ranging from 0 to 10 ng/ml showed chemotactic and/or chemokinetic activities for the two cell lines. The invasiveness of these cells was significantly enhanced by IL-6 at the above concentrations. However, IL-6 did not modulate the production of either MMPs or TIMPs. IL-6 affects cell invasion through its effects on attachment and migration in human ovarian cancer cells. IL-6 might thus contribute to the progression of this disease.
Mismatch negativity generation in the human 5HT2A agonist and NMDA antagonist model of psychosis (2008)

The NDMA antagonist model and the 5HT2A agonist model of psychosis display distinct neurocognitive profiles. These findings are in line with the view of the two classes of hallucinogens modeling different aspects of psychosis.
Mechanisms of Trastuzumab Resistance in Breast Cancer (2009)

Amplification of the HER2/neu gene occurs in approximately 20-25% of invasive breast cancers and is associated with poor patient outcome. The development of trastuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to the extracellular domain of HER2, has led to a significant improvement in outcomes of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. However, many patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer do not respond to trastuzumab, or eventually become resistant to it. In addition, approximately 15% of patients treated with trastuzumab-based therapy in the adjuvant setting relapse. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms of antitumor activity of trastuzumab, potential mechanisms contributing to its resistance, and novel therapeutic agents that may provide a means to overcome trastuzumab resistance.

In Vitro Selection of Bacteriophage φ29 Prohead RNA Aptamers for Prohead Binding (1998)

Prohead RNA (pRNA) of the Bacillus subtilis bacteriophage phi29 is needed for in vitro packaging of DNA-gene product 3 (DNA-gp3). Residues 22-84 of the 174-base pRNA bind the portal vertex of the prohead, the site of DNA packaging. To define the nucleotides of pRNA needed for prohead binding and DNA-gp3 packaging and to seek biologically active variants of pRNA, segments of pRNA were randomized to obtain vast repertoires of RNA molecules. RNA aptamers, ligands best suited for prohead binding, were obtained by multiple rounds of in vitro selection. Evolution of pRNA aptamers was followed by a competition binding assay and nucleotide sequencing, and mutants were tested for DNA-gp3 packaging. Aptamers selected following randomization of the E stem and loop and a part of the C-E loop that were active in DNA-gp3 packaging were invariably wild-type. DNA-gp3 packaging activity also required nucleotides G82 and G83 that form base pairs intermolecularly with C47 and C48 to produce a novel hexameric oligomer of pRNA. The only mutant aptamers that retained full DNA-gp3 packaging activity showed changes of the U residues at positions 81, 84, and 85 of the D loop. Thus, the in vitro selections essentially recapitulated the natural evolution of pRNA.
Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus: Description of Persistence in Individual Pigs upon Experimental Infection (2000)

We studied the persistence of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in individual experimentally infected pigs, during a period of up to 150 days postinfection (dpi). The results of this study suggest that the persistence of PRRSV involves continuous viral replication but that it is not a true steady-state persistent infection. The virus eventually clears the body and seems to do it in most of the animals by 150 dpi or shortly thereafter. High genetic stability was seen for several regions of the persistent PRRSV's genome, although some consistent mutations in the genes of envelope glycoproteins and M protein were also observed.
Oral Ketamine for the Rapid Treatment of Depression and Anxiety in Patients Receiving Hospice Care (2010)

Depression is prevalent and undertreated in patients receiving hospice care. Standard antidepressants do not work rapidly or often enough to benefit most of these patients. Here, two cases are reported in which a single oral dose of ketamine provided rapid and moderately sustained symptom relief for both depression and anxiety. In addition, no adverse effects were noted. Further investigation with randomized, controlled clinical trials is necessary to firmly establish the effectiveness of oral ketamine for the treatment of depression and anxiety in patients receiving hospice care. Ketamine may be a promising safe, effective, and cost-effective rapid treatment for depression and anxiety in this population.
Crystalline structure of AlGaN epitaxy on sapphire using AlN buffer layers (1994)

The crystalline structure near the substrate interface has been studied for AlGaN films grown on (0001) sapphire substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition, using AlN buffer layers. Transmission electron lattice images show that the sapphire/AlN interface is coherent, with misfit dislocations separated by 2.0 nm, corresponding to relaxed bulk lattice parameters. The interface between the buffer layer and the AlGaN film is discussed. The defect structure of the epilayer near the substrate interface consists mostly of dislocations and stacking faults lying on basal planes.
Stromal biology of pancreatic cancer (2007)

The genetic paradigm of cancer, focused largely on sequential molecular aberrations and associated biological impact in the neoplastic cell compartment of malignant tumors, has dominated our view of cancer pathogenesis. For the most part, this conceptualization has overlooked the dynamic and complex contributions of the surrounding microenvironment comprised of non-tumor cells (stroma) that may resist, react to, and/or foster tumor development. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal disease in which a prominent tumor stroma compartment is a defining characteristic. Indeed, the bulk of PDAC tumor volume consists of non-neoplastic fibroblastic, vascular, and inflammatory cells surrounded by immense quantities of extracellular matrix, far exceeding that found in most other tumor types. Remarkably, little is known about the composition and physiology of the PDAC tumor microenvironment, in particular, the role of stroma in tumor initiation and progression. This review attempts to define key challenges, opportunities and state-of-knowledge relating to the PDAC microenvironment research with an emphasis on how inflammatory processes and key cancer pathways may shape the ontogeny of the tumor stroma. Such knowledge may be used to understand the evolution and biology of this lethal cancer and may convert these insights into new points of therapeutic intervention.
A novel approach to first‐trimester screening for early pre‐eclampsia combining serum PP‐13 and Doppler ultrasound (2005)

Effective screening for pre-eclampsia requiring delivery before 34 weeks can potentially be provided by assessment of a combination of maternal serum PP-13 and uterine artery Doppler in the first trimester of pregnancy.
The fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva R206H ACVR1 mutation activates BMP-independent chondrogenesis and zebrafish embryo ventralization (2009)

Patients with classic fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, a disorder characterized by extensive extraskeletal endochondral bone formation, share a recurrent mutation (R206H) within the glycine/serine-rich domain of ACVR1/ALK2, a bone morphogenetic protein type I receptor. Through a series of in vitro assays using several mammalian cell lines and chick limb bud micromass cultures, we determined that mutant R206H ACVR1 activated BMP signaling in the absence of BMP ligand and mediated BMP-independent chondrogenesis that was enhanced by BMP. We further investigated the interaction of mutant R206H ACVR1 with FKBP1A, a glycine/serine domain-binding protein that prevents leaky BMP type I receptor activation in the absence of ligand. The mutant protein exhibited reduced binding to FKBP1A in COS-7 simian kidney cell line assays, suggesting that increased BMP pathway activity in COS-7 cells with R206H ACVR1 is due, at least in part, to decreased binding of this inhibitory factor. Consistent with these findings, in vivo analyses of zebrafish embryos showed BMP-independent hyperactivation of BMP signaling in response to the R206H mutant, resulting in increased embryonic ventralization. These data support the conclusion that the mutant R206H ACVR1 receptor in FOP patients is an activating mutation that induces BMP signaling in a BMP-independent and BMP-responsive manner to promote chondrogenesis, consistent with the ectopic endochondral bone formation in these patients.
Modulation of in vitro monocyte cytokine responses to Leishmania donovani. Interferon-gamma prevents parasite-induced inhibition of interleukin 1 production and primes monocytes to respond to Leishmania by producing both tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin 1. (1990)

Cytokines produced by mononuclear cells are important regulatory and effector molecules and evidence has been presented to support a role at least for tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in host defense against Leishmania. In the present study, we examined the production of TNF-alpha and interleukin 1 (IL-1) by resting and IFN-gamma-primed peripheral blood monocytes infected in vitro with Leishmania donovani. Monocytes produced neither IL-1 nor TNF-alpha during challenge with Leishmania. Cells preinfected with Leishmania synthesized normal amounts of TNF-alpha, but had diminished production of IL-1 in response to stimulation with either S. aureus or lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The induction by S. aureus or LPS of IL-1 beta mRNA accumulation in infected cells was normal despite diminished intracellular or supernatant IL-1 protein and bioactivity. Thus, inhibition of IL-1 production by Leishmania most probably reflected diminished translation of IL-1 beta mRNA. Pretreatment of cells with IFN-gamma abrogated infection-induced inhibition of IL-1 production and primed cells for the production of both IL-1 and TNF-alpha upon subsequent exposure to Leishmania. These results indicate that L. donovani has evolved the capacity to infect mononuclear phagocytes, without stimulating the production of two potentially host-protective monokines. The ability of IFN-gamma to prime monocytes to produce TNF-alpha and IL-1 in response to infection with Leishmania and to prevent inhibition of IL-1 production may have implications for immunotherapy with this lymphokine.
Ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction. Experimental observations and clinical implications. (1990)

An acute myocardial infarction, particularly one that is large and transmural, can produce alterations in the topography of both the infarcted and noninfarcted regions of the ventricle. This remodeling can importantly affect the function of the ventricle and the prognosis for survival. In the early period, infarct expansion has been recognized by echocardiography as a lengthening of the noncontractile region. The noninfarcted region also undergoes an important lengthening that is consistent with a secondary volume-overload hypertrophy and that can be progressive. The extent of ventricular enlargement after infarction is related to the magnitude of the initial damage to the myocardium and, although an increase in cavity size tends to restore stroke volume despite a persistently depressed ejection fraction, ventricular dilation has been associated with a reduction in survival. The process of ventricular enlargement can be influenced by three interdependent factors, that is, infarct size, infarct healing, and ventricular wall stresses. A most effective way to prevent or minimize the increase in ventricular size after infarction and the consequent adverse effect on prognosis is to limit the initial insult. Acute reperfusion therapy has been consistently shown to result in a reduction in ventricular volume. The reestablishment of blood flow to the infarcted region, even beyond the time frame for myocyte salvage, has beneficial effects in attenuating ventricular enlargement. The process of scarification can be interfered with during the acute infarct period by the administration of glucocorticosteroids and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents, which result in thinner infarcts and greater degrees of infarct expansion. Modification of distending or deforming forces can importantly influence ventricular enlargement. Even short-term augmentations in afterload have deleterious long-term effects on ventricular topography. Conversely, judicious use of nitroglycerin seems to be associated with an attenuation of infarct expansion and long-term improvement in clinical outcome. Long-term therapy with an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor can favorably alter the loading conditions on the left ventricle and reduce progressive ventricular enlargement as demonstrated in both experimental and clinical studies. With the former therapy, this attenuation of ventricular enlargement was associated with a prolongation in survival. The long-term clinical consequences of long-term angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor therapy after myocardial infarction is currently being evaluated. Although studies directed at attenuating left ventricular remodeling after infarction are in the early stages, it does seem that this will be an important area in which future research might improve long-term outcome after infarction.

Analysis and Enhancement of Random Number Generator in FPGA Based on Oscillator Rings (2009)

A true random number generator (TRNG) is an important component in cryptographic systems. Designing a fast and secure TRNG in an FPGA is a challenging task. In this paper, we analyze the TRNG designed by Sunar et al. (2007) based on XOR of the outputs of several oscillator rings. We propose an enhanced TRNG with better randomness characteristics that does not require postprocessing and passes the statistical tests. We have shown by experiment that the frequencies of the equal length oscillator rings in the TRNG are not identical. The difference is due to the placement of the inverters in the FPGA and the resulting routing between the inverters. We have implemented our proposed TRNG in an Altera Cyclone II FPGA. Our implementation has passed the NIST and DIEHARD statistical tests with a throughput of 100 Mbps and with a usage of less than 100 logic elements in the FPGA. The restart experiments have shown that the output from our TRNG behaves truly random and not pseudorandom.
