DDP-DAR: Network intrusion detection based on denoising diffusion probabilistic model and dual-attention residual network.

Network intrusion detection (NID) is an effective manner to guarantee the security of cyberspace. However, the scale of normal network traffic is much larger than intrusion traffic (i.e.

TET3-facilitated differentiation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells into oligodendrocyte precursor cells for spinal cord injury recovery.

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) inflicts a severe burden on patients and lacks effective treatments. Owing to the poor regenerative capabilities of endogenous oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) following SCI, there is a growing interest in alternative sources, such as human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUCMSCs). TET3 is a key DNA demethylase that plays an important role in neural differentiation, but its role in OPC formation is not well understood.

Mir-381-3p aggravates ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis by inhibiting osteogenic differentiation through targeting KLF5/Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Background: Increasing evidence shows the pivotal significance of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. miR-381-3p has been identified as an inhibitor of osteogenesis. This study explored the role and mechanism of miR-381-3p in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP), the most common type of osteoporosis.

Automated exploitation of deep learning for cancer patient stratification across multiple types.

Motivation: Recent frameworks based on deep learning have been developed to identify cancer subtypes from high-throughput gene expression profiles. Unfortunately, the performance of deep learning is highly dependent on its neural network architectures which are often hand-crafted with expertise in deep neural networks, meanwhile, the optimization and adjustment of the network are usually costly and time consuming.

Results: To address such limitations, we proposed a fully automated deep neural architecture search model for diagnosing consensus molecular subtypes from gene expression data (DNAS).

Golden 2-Like () transcription factors play a crucial role in chloroplast development and chlorophyll synthesis in many plant taxa. To date, no systematic analysis of transcription factors in tree species has been conducted. In this study, 40 genes in the genome were identified and divided into seven groups based on the gene structure and motif composition.

Counterion Control of t-BuO-Mediated Single Electron Transfer to Nitrostilbenes to Construct N-Hydroxyindoles or Oxindoles.

tert-Butoxide unlocks new reactivity patterns embedded in nitroarenes. Exposure of nitrostilbenes to sodium tert-butoxide was found to produce N-hydroxyindoles at room temperature without an additive. Changing the counterion to potassium changed the reaction outcome to yield solely oxindoles through an unprecedented dioxygen-transfer reaction followed by a 1,2-phenyl migration.

Accuracy, Linearity and Precision of Spine QCT vBMD Phantom Measurements for Different Brands of CT Scanner: A Multicentre Study.

We describe a multicenter study using the European Spine Phantom (ESP) to compare the accuracy, linearity and precision of QCT measurements of spine vBMD between different brands of scanner, different models of the same brand and identical units of the same model. Ten scans of the same ESP with repositioning were performed on forty CT scanners from five manufacturers in different hospitals across China, all calibrated with the Mindways QCT system. The three ESP vertebral bodies simulating low (L1), medium (L2) and high (L3) vBMD and their average (L1-3 vBMD) were compared with phantom values.

Molecular Evolution of Maize Ascorbate Peroxidase Genes and Their Functional Divergence.

Ascorbate peroxidase (APX) is an important antioxidant enzyme. APXs in maize are encoded by multiple genes and exist as isoenzymes. The evolutionary history and functional divergence of the maize gene family were analyzed through comparative genomic and experimental data on the Internet in this paper.

Multicomponent Synthesis of Iminocoumarins via Rhodium-Catalyzed C-H Bond Activation.

We herein establish a multicomponent annulation method for the synthesis of valuable iminocoumarins using aryl thiocarbamates, internal alkynes, and sulfonamides as starting materials, which are safe and readily available. The key step is a Rh-catalyzed and sulfur-directed C-H bond activation. Preliminary mechanistic investigations suggested that the nucleophilic attack of the sulfonamide on an active iminium cation finally completes the imine segment.

Palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of thioureas or thioamides.

Cross-coupling reactions involving metal carbene intermediates play an increasingly important role in C-C bond formation. Expanding the carbene precursors to a broader range of starting materials and more diverse products is an ongoing challenge in synthetic organic chemistry. Herein, we report a Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction of in situ-generated Pd-carbene complexes via desulfurization of thioureas or thioamides.

Nicotine exerts neuroprotective effects by attenuating local inflammatory cytokine production following crush injury to rat sciatic nerves.

Recent studies have demonstrated that nicotine exhibited anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties by interacting with the alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR). However, the role of nicotine in regeneration during peripheral nerve injury has not been elucidated. The aim of this study was to investigate whether nicotine down-regulated production of proinflammatory cytokines and promoted peripheral nerve regeneration in rats.

An Analysis of the Attitude Estimation Errors Caused by the Deflections of Vertical in the Integration of Rotational INS and GNSS.

This paper investigates the attitude estimation errors caused by the deflections of vertical (DOV) in the case of a rotational inertial navigation system (INS) integrated with a global satellite navigation system (GNSS). It has been proved theoretically and experimentally that the DOV can introduce a tilt error to the INS/GNSS integration, whereas less attention has been given to its effect to the heading estimation. In fact, due to the intercoupling characteristic of attitude errors, the heading estimation of an INS/GNSS integrated navigation system can also be affected.

Controlling the Selectivity Patterns of Au-Catalyzed Cyclization-Migration Reactions.

As little as 2 mol % of (XPhos)AuNTf catalyzes the transformation of a broad range of o-acetylene-substituted styrenes into 1,2-dihydronaphthalenes. Our data suggests that this transformation occurs via a gold-stabilized cyclopropyl carbinyl cation, which triggers either a [1,2] carboxylate shift or a less favorable [1,2] aryl shift. The relative rates of these migrations can be controlled by the identity of the ligand or by stabilizing the mesomeric cation.

Acyl-CoA synthetase 6 enriches the neuroprotective omega-3 fatty acid DHA in the brain.

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega-3 fatty acid that is highly abundant in the brain and confers protection against numerous neurological diseases, yet the fundamental mechanisms regulating the enrichment of DHA in the brain remain unknown. Here, we have discovered that a member of the long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase family, Acsl6, is required for the enrichment of DHA in the brain by generating an Acsl6-deficient mouse (Acsl6). Acsl6 is highly enriched in the brain and lipid profiling of Acsl6 tissues reveals consistent reductions in DHA-containing lipids in tissues highly abundant with Acsl6.

Time series modeling of the ring laser gyroscope's bias considering the temperature delay effect.

Due to the temperature delay effect, the coefficients of the traditional ring laser gyroscope's (RLG) bias temperature model usually change with environmental temperature. In order to improve the applicability of the temperature model in complex temperature-varying environments, a modified RLG bias modeling method based on the temperature delay effect is proposed. The time series model (TSM), whose coefficients are independent of the environmental temperature variation, is established through theoretical analysis according to the temperature delay effect.

Thiocarbamate-Directed Tandem Olefination-Intramolecular Sulfuration of Two Ortho C-H Bonds: Application to Synthesis of a COX-2 Inhibitor.

A palladium-catalyzed dual ortho C-H bond activation of aryl thiocarbamates is developed. This tandem reaction initiates by thiocarbamate-directed ortho C-H palladation, which leads to favorable olefin insertion rather than reductive elimination. The oxidative Heck reaction followed by another C-H activation and sulfuration affords the dual-functionalized products.

Chemoselective acylation of benzimidazoles with phenylacetic acids under different Cu catalysts to give fused five-membered N-heterocycles or tertiary amides.

C-N bond formation via a copper-catalyzed aerobic oxidative decarboxylative tandem protocol was realized. The phenylacetic acids which contain ortho-X (X = F or Br) on the aromatic ring will render a fused five-membered heterocycle via a tandem aromatic nucleophilic substitution and aerobic oxidative decarboxylative acylation at the C(sp(2))-H bond of benzimidazoles under the Cu(OAc)2/K2CO3/BF3·Et2O catalytic system, while with CuBr as the catalyst and pyridine as the base, N-acylation occurred and tertiary amides were obtained.
