In visible light communications (VLC), multi-color light emitting diodes (LEDs) have higher modulation bandwidth and better chromatic property compared with traditional phosphor-converted LEDs.For multi-color multi-input single-output (MISO) VLC systems, multiple colors of one LED are not independent with each other since they are limited jointly w
Activated tissue-resident macrophages contribute to hair cell insults in noise-induced hearing loss in mice
Abstract Macrophages serve as the primary immune cell population and assume a pivotal role in the immune response within the damaged cochleae.Yet, natio celebrate eyeshadow palette the origin and role of macrophages in response to noise exposure remain controversial.Here, we take advantage of Ccr2RFP/+ Cx3cr1GFP/+ dual-reporter mice to identify the
Crop booms as regime shifts
A crop boom is a sudden, nonlinear and intense expansion of a new crop.Despite their large impacts, boom-bust dynamics are not well understood; booms are largely unpredictable and difficult to steer once they unfold.Based on the striking resemblances between land regime shifts and crop booms, we apply complex systems theory, highlighting the potent
In silico screening of known small molecules to bind ACE2 specific RBD on Spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2 for repurposing against COVID-19 [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]
Background: Human coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) is causing a pandemic with significant morbidity and mortality.As no effective novel drugs are available currently, drug repurposing is an alternative intervention strategy.Here we present an in silico drug repurposing study that implements successful concepts of computer-aided drug design (CADD) technolog
