Predicting recurrence in osteosarcoma via a quantitative histological image classifier derived from tumour nuclear morphological features

Recurrence is the key factor affecting the prognosis of osteosarcoma. Currently, there is a lack of clinically useful tools to predict osteosarcoma recurrence. The application of pathological images for artificial intelligence-assisted accurate prediction of tumour outcomes is increasing.

Fungus-derived protein particles as cell-adhesive matrices for cell-cultivated food

Cell-adhesive factors mediate adhesion of cells to substrates via peptide motifs such as the Arg–Gly–Asp (RGD) sequence. With the onset of sustainability issues, there is a pressing need to find alternatives to animal-derived cell-adhesive factors, especially for cell-cultivated food applications.

Zyxin regulates embryonic stem cell fate by modulating mechanical and biochemical signaling interface

Biochemical signaling and mechano-transduction are both critical in regulating stem cell fate. How crosstalk between mechanical and biochemical cues influences embryonic development, however, is not extensively investigated.

A review of algorithmic approaches for cell culture media optimization

Cell culture is widely used in biotechnology to manufacture various useful products for applications such as pharmaceuticals, food, biofuel, and industrial products. Cell culture production systems in industry and research span different kingdoms of life from free living microbes such as bacteria, archaea, and fungi, to cell lines derived from multicellular organisms including insect and mammalian species. Products include pharmaceuticals such as antibiotics and monoclonal antibodies; food products such as rennet, single-cell protein, and cultivated meat; biofuel from lipid-producing algae; industrial products such as cleaning enzymes and organic acids.
