Given a passage classify if the passage has a definite objective/aim/goal or not. Output '1' if the passage has a defininte objective/aim/goal and output '0' if the passage does not have a definite objective/aim/goal.

Q: Circular RNAs are a subclass of non-coding RNAs detected within mammalian cells. This study was designed to test the roles of a circular RNA circ-Foxo3 in senescence using in vitro and in vivo approaches.', 'Using the approaches of molecular and cellular biology, we show that a circular RNA generated from a member of the forkhead family of transcription factors, Foxo3, namely circ-Foxo3, was highly expressed in heart samples of aged patients and mice, which was correlated with markers of cellular senescence. Doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy was aggravated by ectopic expression of circ-Foxo3 but was relieved by silencing endogenous circ-Foxo3. We also found that silencing circ-Foxo3 inhibited senescence of mouse embryonic fibroblasts and that ectopic expression of circ-Foxo3 induced senescence. We found that circ-Foxo3 was mainly distributed in the cytoplasm, where it interacted with the anti-senescent protein ID-1 and the transcription factor E2F1, as well as the anti-stress proteins FAK and HIF1α.

Q: Inter-tissue molecular interactions are critical to the function and behavior of biological systems in multicellular organisms, but systematic studies of interactions between tissues are lacking. Also, existing studies of inter-tissue interactions are based on direct gene expression correlations, which can't distinguish correlations due to common genetic architectures versus biochemical or molecular signal exchange between tissues.", 'We developed a novel strategy to study inter-tissue interaction by removing effects of genetic regulation of gene expression (genetic decorrelation). We applied our method to the comprehensive atlas of gene expression across nine human tissues in the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project to generate novel genetically decorrelated inter-tissue networks. From this we derived modules of genes important in inter-tissue interactions that are likely driven by biological signal exchange instead of their common genetic basis. Importantly we highlighted communication between tissues and elucidated gene activities in one tissue inducing gene expression changes in others.', 'We reveal global unidirectional inter-tissue coordination of specific biological pathways such as protein synthesis. Using our data, we highlighted a clinically relevant example whereby heart expression of DPP4 was coordinated with a gene expression signature characteristic for whole blood proliferation, potentially impacting peripheral stem cell mobilization. We also showed that expression of the poorly characterized FOCAD in heart correlated with protein biosynthetic processes in the lung.

Q: Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response to a bacterial infection. Inflammation may result in injury to the small bowel and an increase in translocation of bacteria and toxins across the mucosal barrier, which may contribute to the progression of sepsis. Microcirculatory perfusion or cytopathic hypoxia may cause impairment of tissue bioenergetics and injury in sepsis. The objective of this study was to determine if sepsis is associated with microcirculatory hypoperfusion and impaired tissue bioenergetics in the ileal mucosa.', 'Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized to cecal ligation and perforation (sepsis group, n = 12) or control group (n = 14) and received arterial and venous catheters and fluid resuscitation. Following 24 h, rats were anesthetized with isoflurane and the ileum was prepared for intravital microscopy. Images of NADH fluorescence, which is an index of tissue bioenergetics, central arterial diameter, red cell velocity, red cell flux, and average intercapillary area, were recorded in 6-9 villi in each rat.', 'Central arterial red cell flux (control 277 +/- 30 cell/s, sepsis 108 +/- 13 cells/s, p < .05), diameter (control 10.4 +/- 0.4 microm, sepsis 8.2 +/- 0.3 microm, p < .05) and red cell velocity (control 590 +/- 47 microm/s, sepsis 449 +/- 63 microm/s, p < .05) were decreased while average intercapillary area (control 815 +/- 171 microm(2), sepsis 1412 +/- 364 microm(2), p < .05) and NADH fluorescence (control 116 +/- 6 AIU, sepsis 154 +/- 9 AIU, p < .05) were increased at the villus tip in the sepsis group.
