Music Classification Method Using Big Data Feature Extraction and Neural Networks.

From the cassette era to the CD era to the digital music era, the quantity of music has grown rapidly. People cannot easily search for the desired music without classifying enormous music resources and developing a successful music retrieval system. By examining users' historical listening patterns for personalised recommendations, the music recommendation algorithm can lessen message fatigue for users and enhance user experience.

Involvement of METTL3/mAdenosine and TGFβ/Smad3 signaling on Tenon's fibroblasts and in a rabbit model of glaucoma surgery.

Glaucoma filtration surgery (GFS) is a classic operation for the treatment of glaucoma, which is the second leading cause of blindness, and scar formation caused by excessive human Tenon's capsule fibroblasts (HTFs) activation is responsible for surgery failure. However, the mechanism underlying excessive HTFs activation is largely unknown. Studies have revealed that N-methyladenosine (mA), which is one of the most common posttranscriptional modifications, plays an important role in multiple types of cellular processes.

Overexpression of methyltransferase-like 3 and 14 in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Objectives: This study aimed to determine expressions of methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) and METTL14, two enzymes essential for mRNA methylation at the adenosine (m A), in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and to investigate in vitro aggressiveness of their aberrant expressions.

Methods: METTL3 and METTL14 expressions in 50 OSCC and 11 normal oral tissues were examined by immunohistochemistry. METTL3 and METTL14 expressions and m A amounts were determined in three OSCC cell lines, including HN5, HN6, and HN15.

The diagnostic value of DNA repair gene in breast cancer metastasis.

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in China and even in the world. DNA repair genes can lead to tumor metastasis by affecting cancer cell resistance. Studies have preliminarily shown that DNA repair genes are related to breast cancer metastasis, but it is not clear whether they can be used as a prediction of the risk of breast cancer metastasis.

Role of the long noncoding RNA H19 in TGF-β1-induced Tenon's capsule fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition.

Glaucoma filtration surgery (GFS) is a classic surgical method used to treat glaucoma, the second leading cause of blindness. Scar formation caused by excessive Tenon's capsule fibroblast activation leads to surgical failure. However, the mechanism underlying this activation is largely unknown.

Mitochondria-targeted antioxidant peptide SS-31 mediates neuroprotection in a rat experimental glaucoma model.

To investigate the neuroprotective effects of the mitochondria-targeted antioxidant Szeto-Schiller peptide 31 (SS-31) in a rat experimental glaucoma model, SS-31 was intraperitoneally (IP) injected into Sprague-Dawley rats, followed by intracameral injection of polystyrene microspheres to induce elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). After 6 weeks, electroretinography (ERG) and flash visual-evoked potentials (F-VEPs) were recorded to assess retinal function. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed on retinal cross-sections to measure ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness.
