Abstract Since the 1950s, when the Turing Test was introduced, there has been notable progress in machine language intelligence. Language modeling, crucial for AI development, has evolved from statistical to neural models over the last two decades. Recently, transformer-based Pre-trained Language Models (PLM) have excelled in Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks by leveraging large-scale training corpora. Increasing the scale of these models enhances performance significantly, introducing abilities like context learning that smaller models lack. The advancement in Large Language Models, exemplified by the development of ChatGPT, has made significant impacts both academically and industrially, capturing widespread… More >

Abstract La période post-traitement une part fondamental de la prise en charge du cancer pédiatrique. Durant cette période, les difficultés scolaires et psychologiques chez les survivants d’un cancer pédiatriques (SCP) sont connues et peuvent être pronostic sur la bonne réintégration sociale. Cette étude estime l’influence de la déprivation sociale du foyer de l’enfant sur ces difficultés. Notre étude se base sur une base de données multicentrique, et se concentre sur les SCP avant reçu une évaluation psychosociale au cours de leur suivi, de 2013 à 2020. Nous rapportons les données des difficultés scolaires et psychologiques. Le… More >

Abstract Plant antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are special proteins that can protect plant cells from ice crystal damage in low-temperature environments, and they play a crucial role in the process of plants adapting to cold environments. Proteins with these characteristics have been found in fish living in cold regions, as well as many plants and insects. Although research on plant AFPs started relatively late, their application prospects are broad, leading to the attention of many researchers to the isolation, cloning, and genetic improvement of plant AFP genes. Studies have found that the distribution of AFPs in different species… More >

Abstract Understanding and modeling individuals’ behaviors during epidemics is crucial for effective epidemic control. However, existing research ignores the impact of users’ irrationality on decision-making in the epidemic. Meanwhile, existing disease control methods often assume users’ full compliance with measures like mandatory isolation, which does not align with the actual situation. To address these issues, this paper proposes a prospect theory-based framework to model users’ decision-making process in epidemics and analyzes how irrationality affects individuals’ behaviors and epidemic dynamics. According to the analysis results, irrationality tends to prompt conservative behaviors when the infection risk is low More >

Abstract The global incidence of lung cancer is marked by a considerably elevated mortality rate. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) exert pivotal influence in the intricate orchestration of gene regulation, and their dysregulation can precipitate dire consequences, notably cancer. Within this context, miRNAs encapsulated in exosomes manifest a diversified impact on the landscape of lung cancer, wherein their actions may either foster angiogenesis, cell proliferation, and metastasis, or counteract these processes. This comprehensive review article discerns potential targets for the prospective development of therapeutic agents tailored for lung cancer. Tumor-suppressive miRNAs, such as miR-204, miR-192, miR-30a, miR-34a, miR-34b, miR-203,… More >

Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major global health concern. Accumulation of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in CRC is associated with poor prognosis and disease recurrence. CAFs are the main cellular component of the tumor microenvironment. CAF-tumor cell interplay, which is facilitated by various secretomes, drives colorectal carcinogenesis. The complexity of CAF populations contributes to the heterogeneity of CRC and influences patient survival and treatment response. Due to their significant roles in colorectal carcinogenesis, different clinical applications utilizing or targeting CAFs have been suggested. Circulating CAFs (cCAFs) which can be detected in blood samples, have been proposed… More > Graphic Abstract
