Changing Movements in a Changing World: Modelling Early Pleistocene and Early Middle Pleistocene Climatic and Ecological Environments and Influences on Hominin Dispersal in Eurasia

In a world of drastic climatic and ecological changes, our knowledge of how the environment influenced hominin behaviour is of the utmost importance. Archaeology plays a key role in this domain, as it is the only discipline that studies emp...

Gallium nanoparticles along with low-dose gamma radiation modulate TGF-β/MMP-9 expression in hepatocellular carcinogenesis in rats

Combining chemotherapy with radiotherapy potentiates the outcome of cancer treatment for the more comprehensive attack. In the current study, we continued to assess the therapeutic efficaciousness of the newly synthesized gallium nanopartic...

plsMD: a plasmid reconstruction tool from short-read assemblies

Abstract Background While whole genome sequencing has become a cornerstone of antimicrobial resistance surveillance, the reconstruction of plasmid sequences from short-read data remains a challenge due to repetitive sequences and assembly f...

Prediction of the Leaf Primordia of Potato Tubers Using Sensor Fusion and Wavelength Selection

The sprouting of potato tubers during storage is a significant problem that suppresses obtaining high quality seeds or fried products. In this study, the potential of fusing data obtained from visible (VIS)/near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic...

ODE, regression, and ANN models for energy forecasting: Egypt as a study case

Energy plays a crucial role in national development, influencing critical sectors such as industry, agriculture, healthcare, and education. Accurate energy consumption prediction is essential for efficient energy management, helping prevent...

Emerging mutations in envelope protein of SARS-CoV-2 and their effect on thermodynamic properties

Structural proteins of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are potential drug targets due to their role in the virus life cycle. The envelope (E) protein is one of the structural proteins; plays a critical role in v...

Epstein–Barr Virus-Induced Metabolic Rearrangements in Human B-Cell Lymphomas

Tumor metabolism has been the object of several studies in the past, leading to the pivotal observation of a consistent shift toward aerobic glycolysis (so-called Warburg effect). More recently, several additional investigations proved that...
