HABCLUSTER: IDENTIFYING THE GEOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARY AMONG INTRASPECIFIC UNITS USING COMMUNITY DETECTION ALGORITHMS IN R

habCluster: identifying the geographical boundary among intraspecific units using community detection algorithms in R

Conservation management for a species generally rests on intraspecific units, while identification of their geographic boundaries is necessary for the implementation.Intraspecific units can be discriminated using population genetic methods, yet an analytical approach is still lacking for detecting their geographic boundaries.Here, based on landscap

Simultaneous Detection of RIG-1, MDA5, and IFIT-1 Expression Is a Convenient Tool for Evaluation of the Interferon-Mediated Response

In this study, we developed a novel, multiplex qPCR assay for simultaneous detection of RIG-1, MDA5, and IFIT-1 at the mRNA level.The assay was validated in A549 cells transfected with in vitro transcribed RNAs.Both exogenous RNA-GFP and self-amplifying (saRNA-GFP) induced significant expression of RIG-1, MDA5, IFIT-1, as well as type I and III int

Mucoadhesive In Situ Rectal Gel Loaded with Rifampicin: Strategy to Improve Bioavailability and Alleviate Liver Toxicity

Although it is a front-line in tuberculosis treatment, rifampicin (RF) exhibits poor oral bioavailability and hepatotoxicity.Rectal mucoadhesive and in situ rectal gels were developed to overcome drug drawbacks.A RF/polyethylene glycol 6000 co-precipitate was first prepared in different ratios.Based on the drug solubility, the selected ratio was in
