Machine learning driven image segmentation and shape clustering of algal microscopic images obtained from various water types

This study applies FastSAM for automated algal cell segmentation and clustering in water samples, showing high accuracy for single cells and varying clustering performance.

The HPV8 E6 protein targets the Hippo and Wnt signaling pathways as part of its arsenal to restrain keratinocyte differentiation

This paper identifies that the HPV8 E6 protein inhibits keratinocyte differentiation by subverting Hippo and Wnt signaling pathways.

A touchscreen device for behavioral testing in pigs

The paper describes a touchscreen device for behavioral testing in pigs, demonstrating its effectiveness in training pigs for complex tasks and its adaptability for various research applications.

Anthropogenic impacts on threatened species erode functional diversity in turtles and crocodilians

The paper assesses functional diversity loss in turtles and crocodilians due to anthropogenic threats, finding habitat disturbance causes twice the functional diversity loss compared to other threats.

Life history mediates the trade-offs among different components of demographic resilience

The paper shows how life history traits influence demographic resilience components like resistance, compensation, and recovery in species.

A conserved amino acid in the C-terminus of HPV E7 mediates binding to PTPN14 and repression of epithelial differentiation

This paper identifies a conserved arginine residue in HPV E7 that mediates PTPN14 binding and repression of keratinocyte differentiation, contributing to HPV carcinogenesis.

PTPN14 Degradation by High-Risk Human Papillomavirus E7 Limits Keratinocyte Differentiation and Contributes to HPV-Mediated Oncogenesis

This study shows that high-risk HPV E7 degrades PTPN14, impairing keratinocyte differentiation and contributing to oncogenesis independent of RB1 inactivation.
