چکیده

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most harmful cancer in the world. The transgenic mouse model of hepatocarcinogenesis was established to decipher the pathological mechanism of HCC. Previous studies found that several transgenes play important roles in transgenic mouse carcinogenesis. However, the detail relationship between transgene and other genes is still unknown. In this paper, we propose a network flow based mathematical model to infer the transgene centering functional network (TCFN), which shows the regulatory effect of transgene to the differentially expressed genes, by integrating genome-wide high-throughput data and protein-protein interaction network. The proposed model was applied to transgenic mouse development study. In particular, tumor progress related TCFN on different development stages was identified. The analysis of dynamic changes of TCFN revealed some important genes highly correlated to the tumor development. The TCFN and the identified genes provide new insights on the mouse HCC pathogenic mechanisms.

An Irregular Lattice Pore Network Model Construction Algorithm

Pore network modeling uses a network of pores connected by throats to model the void space of a porous medium and tries to predict its various characteristics during multiphase flow of various fluids. In most cases, a non-realistic regular lattice of pores is used to model the characteristics of a porous medium. Although some methodologies for extracting geologically realistic irregular net...

Calculation of Leakage in Water Supply Network Based on Blind Source Separation Theory

The economic and environmental losses due to serious leakage in the urban water supply network have increased the effort to control the water leakage. However, current methods for leakage estimation are inaccurate leading to the development of ineffective leakage controls. Therefore, this study proposes a method based on the blind source separation theory (BSS) to calculate the leakage of water...
