The Spatial Atlas of Human Anatomy (SAHA) represents the first multimodal, subcellular-resolution reference of healthy adult human tissues across multiple organ systems. Integrating spatial transcriptomics, proteomics, and histological features across over 15 million cells from more than 100 donors, SAHA maps conserved and organ-specific cellular niches in gastrointestinal and immune tissues. High-resolution profiling using CosMx SMI, 10x Xenium, RNAscope, GeoMx DSP, and single-nucleus RNA-seq reveals spatially organized cell states, rare adaptive immune populations, and tissue-specific cell-cell interactions.

The most common method in the treatment of TMDs is arthrocentesis. This study aims to compare the effect of conventional extraoral auriculotemporal nerve block (ANB) and Gow-Gates (GG) mandibular anesthesia techniques on patient comfort in an arthrocentesis procedure.

Spontaneous point mutations are one of the main actors in evolution, and the tautomerization of organic bases in the DNA is hypothesized to be the underlying mechanism of this crucial process. Tautomerization can be induced by proton tunneling, and if it occurs in single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) during the replication process, tautomerized bases might give rise to a mismatch, which will eventually defect the genetic code. In the present work, we report on the tautomerization time in the guanine base of the ssDNA.

Phylogenetic trees are useful tools to infer evolutionary relationships between genetic entities. Phylogenetics enables not only evolution-based gene clustering but also the assignment of gene duplication and deletion events to the nodes when coupled with statistical approaches such as bootstrapping. However, extensive gene duplication and deletion events bring along a challenge in interpreting phylogenetic trees and require manual inference.

DNA undergoes spontaneous point mutations, which are believed to be central to the evolution of the organisms and which are thought to occur by tautomerization of the canonical Guanine-Cytosine (G-C) base pair into non-canonical G∗-C∗ base pair via the double proton tunneling. In the present work, we close a gap in the literature by computing the time delay during the proton tunneling. Our results, based on the well-known dwell time and our model of the entropic time, range from femtoseconds to picoseconds, and completely agree with the time scales of the structural changes in molecules (mutation processes not the complete replication processes).

Thioxanthone and its derivatives are the most remarkable molecules due to their vast variety of application such as radiation curing that is, until using them as a therapeutic drug. Therefore, in this study it was intended to use 2-Thioxanthone acetic acid with and without NaCl in Tris HCl buffer solution (pH:7.0) to represent the interaction with ct-DNA.

The possibility of using hazelnut husk (HH) as a new basal ingredient for substrate preparation in Lentinula edodes cultivation was investigated. Some chemical properties of the substrates prepared by HH alone and its mixtures with wheat straw (WS), beech wood-chip (BWC) and wheat bran (WB) in different ratios were compared, and their effects on spawn run time, days to first harvest (earliness), yield and biological efficiency (BE) were determined. The N content of the substrate prepared from HH alone was very high (0.
