This paper presents a novel nature-inspired optimization paradigm, named as squirrel search
algorithm (SSA). This optimizer imitates the dynamic foraging behaviour of southern flying …

Metabolic reprogramming has been proposed to be a hallmark of cancer, yet a systematic
characterization of the metabolic pathways active in transformed cells is currently lacking. …

Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based metabolomics has emerged as
a valuable tool for biological discovery, capable of assaying thousands of diverse chemical …

Metabolic remodeling is now widely regarded as a hallmark of cancer, but it is not clear
whether individual metabolic strategies are frequently exploited by many tumours. Here we …

Studies using 16S rRNA and shotgun metagenomics typically yield different results, usually
attributed to PCR amplification biases. We introduce Greengenes2, a reference tree that …

Background—Myocardial infarction (MI) promotes deleterious remodeling of the
myocardium, resulting in ventricular dilation and pump dysfunction. We examined whether …

Heart failure remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The cellular mechanism
underlying the development of cardiac dysfunction is a decrease in the number of viable …

Text messaging-based conversational agents (CAs), popularly called chatbots, received
significant attention in the last two years. However, chatbots are still in their nascent stage: They …

Human genetic variation affects the gut microbiota through a complex combination of
environmental and host factors. Here we characterize genetic variations associated with microbial …

Primary amyloidosis is a systemic disorder characterized by the clonal production and tissue
deposition of immunoglobulin light chain (LC) proteins. Congestive heart failure remains …
