In the context of wind energy systems, maintaining optimal power output in wind turbines when wind speeds exceed rated values necessitates precise regulation of blade pitch through the pitch control system. However, challenges in accurately modeling nonlinear control systems and enhancing control responsiveness arise due to factors such as actuator constraints, unmodeled dynamics, and random wind speed fluctuations. This paper proposes an improved model free control, termed Input Output Model Free Adaptive Control (IO-MFAC).

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate the impact of acidic pepsin on Glut-1 expression and glycolytic activity in laryngeal cancer cells, focusing on its role in cell growth and migration.
  • Researchers treated laryngeal carcinoma cells with acidic pepsin and evaluated various metrics including Glut-1 levels, glucose uptake, and cell viability using multiple assays.
  • Results revealed that acidic pepsin significantly increased Glut-1 expression and glycolytic activity, promoting cancer cell growth and migration, effects that could be reversed with a glycolytic inhibitor and Glut-1 siRNA.

Cisplatin is a well-known platinum-based chemotherapy medication that is widely utilized for some malignancies. Despite the direct cytotoxic consequences of cisplatin on tumor cells, studies in the recent decade have revealed that cisplatin can also affect different cells and their secretions in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Cisplatin has complex impacts on the TME, which may contribute to its anti-tumor activity or drug resistance mechanisms.

Today, it is well-known that the interactions and secretion within the tumour are crucial to consider for cancer therapy. Some novel cancer therapy modalities such as immunotherapy or tumour vaccination therapy work based on the control of interactions within the tumour microenvironment (TME). It has been revealed that anti-cancer drugs or radiotherapy can modulate some interactions in favour of cancer therapy.

Article Synopsis
  • Hexokinase-II (HK-II) is a crucial enzyme in the glycolysis process, and its expression is linked to radioresistance in laryngeal carcinoma.
  • Researchers tested the effects of inhibiting HK-II using small interfering RNA (siRNA) on the radiosensitivity of cancer cells in lab experiments and mouse models.
  • The study found that combining HK-II inhibition with radiation treatment significantly decreased cell viability and promoted apoptosis, suggesting that targeting HK-II could enhance the effectiveness of radiation therapy in treating this type of cancer.

Article Synopsis
  • * The controller uses the extended Kalman filter algorithm for online training, allowing it to adjust and compensate for faults, thus maintaining control performance.
  • * The method is validated through simulations of a two-input two-output continuous stirred tank reactor, showing its effectiveness in real-world industrial applications.
