Geometric and spectral distortions of remote sensing images are key obstacles for deep learning-based supervised classification retrieval, which worsened by cross-dataset applications. A learnable geometric transformation model imbedded in a learning has been used as tool handling to process close-range with different view angles. However, model, is more noteworthy image processing, not yet des...

Muropeptides are breakdown products of peptidoglycan (PGN) of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. They are released during bacterial growth and division, as part of the host response by lysozyme and amidases, or upon antibiotic treatment. After phagocytosis of bacteria or bacterial breakdown products by host immune cells, the muropeptides trigger intracellular signaling cascades, leading ...

Peptidoglycans (PGNs) are immunogenic bacterial surface patterns that trigger immune activation in metazoans and plants. It is generally unknown how complex bacterial structures such as PGNs are perceived by plant pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and whether host hydrolytic activities facilitate decomposition of bacterial matrices and generation of soluble PRR ligands. Here we show that Ara...

Catur merupakan permainan paling popular di dunia, dimainkan oleh jutaan manusia terlepas dari berapa pun usia mereka. Saking populernya ini, selama Perang Dunia II catur sering digunakan sebagai media menyembunyian pesan rahasia para tantara yang kemudian disebut steganografi. Para tentara tersebut mengirim melalui menggunakan sebuah notasi untuk menentukan penempatan dan analisis. Maka dapat ...

Objectives: Microglial cells are the central regulators of inflammatory responses in brain and spinal cord. In addition to surveillance during resting state, they become activated due microbial molecules pathological insults. Endogenously expressed Activated protein C (APC) is an anticoagulant molecule with anti-inflammatory cytoprotective roles, mediated by one its receptors, Endothelial recep...

PURPOSE We evaluated an anti-inflammatory effect of TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1) ectodomain shedding in ocular surface. METHODS Human corneal epithelial cell (HCEC) was first pretreated by TNF-α. Ectodomain shedding was stimulated by uridine triphosphate (UTP) or peptidoglycan (PGN), with or without shedding inhibition using TNF-α processing inhibitor (TAPI). The phosphorylation of the NF-κB inhibi...

OBJECTIVE Insulin resistance associates with chronic inflammation, and participatory elements of the immune system are emerging. We hypothesized that bacterial elements acting on distinct intracellular pattern recognition receptors of the innate immune system, such as bacterial peptidoglycan (PGN) acting on nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD) proteins, contribute to insulin resistance. RE...

PURPOSE There is growing evidence that endothelial cells (EC) are active participants of an inflammatory process in glomeruli. MATERIAL AND METHODS We compared the glomerular expression of three EC-coupled molecules, i.e. platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1 or CD31), von Willebrand factor (vWF) and thrombomodulin (TM) in 60 patients with glomerulonephritis (GN) and five nor...

Abstract Procedural noise functions are fundamental tools in computer graphics used for synthesizing virtual geometry and texture patterns. Ideally, a procedural function should be compact, aperiodic, parameterized, randomly accessible. Traditional lattice such as Perlin noise, however, exhibit periodicity due to the axial correlation induced while hashing vertices gradients. In this paper, we ...

Existing vehicle re-identification methods commonly use spatial pooling operations to aggregate feature maps extracted via off-the-shelf backbone networks, such as visual geometry group network (VGGNet), Google (GoogLeNet) and residual (ResNet). They ignore exploring the significance of maps, eventually degrading performance. In this paper, firstly, an innovative graph (SGN) is proposed elabora...
