An image segmentation process was derived from an image model that assumed that cell images represent objects having characteristic relationships, limited shape properties and definite local color features. These assumptions allowed the design of a region-growing process in which the color features were used to iteratively aggregate image points in alternation with a test of the convexity of the aggregate obtained. The combination of both local and global criteria allowed the self-adaptation of the algorithm to segmentation difficulties and led to a self-assessment of the adequacy of the final segmentation result. The quality of the segmentation was evaluated by visual control of the match between cell images and the corresponding segmentation masks proposed by the algorithm. A comparison between this region-growing process and the conventional gray-level thresholding is illustrated. A field test involving 700 bone marrow cells, randomly selected from May-Grünwald-Giemsa-stained smears, allowed the evaluation of the efficiency, effectiveness and confidence of the algorithm: 96% of the cells were evaluated as correctly segmented by the algorithm's self-assessment of adequacy, with a 98% confidence. The principles of the other major segmentation algorithms are also reviewed. 相似文献

Heat treatment of spores of non-proteolytic strains of Clostridium botulinum at 75–90°C, and enumeration of survivors on a nutrient medium containing lysozyme gave biphasic survival curves. A majority of spores were inactivated rapidly by heating, and the apparent heat-resistance of these spores was similar to that observed by enumeration on medium without lysozyme. A minority of spores showed much greater heat-resistance, due to the fact that the spore coat was permeable to lysozyme, which diffused into the spore from the medium and replaced the heat-inactivated germination system. The proportion of heated spores permeable to lysozyme was between 0.2 and 1.4% for spores of strains 17B (type B) and Beluga (type E), but was about 20% for spores of strain Foster B96 (type E). After treatment of heated spores with alkaline thioglycolate, all were permeable to lysozyme. D-values for heated spores that were permeable to lysozyme (naturally and after treatment with thioglycolate) were: for strain 17B, D85 °C, 100 min; D90 °C, 18.7 min; D95 °C, 4.4 min; for strain Beluga, D85 °C, 46 min; D90 °C, 11.8 min; D95 °C, 2.8 min. The z-values for these spores of strains 17B and Beluga were 7.6°C and 8.3°C. 相似文献

The Bn-FAE1.1 and Bn-FAE1.2 genes encode the 3-ketoacyl-CoA synthase, a component of the elongation complex responsible for the synthesis of very long chain monounsaturated fatty acids (VLCMFA) in the seeds of Brassica napus. Bn-FAE1 gene expression was studied during seed development using two different cultivars: Gaspard, a high erucic acid rapeseed (HEAR), and ISLR4, a low erucic acid rapeseed (LEAR). The mRNA developmental profiles were similar for the two cultivars, the maximal expression levels being measured at 8 weeks after pollination (WAP) in HEAR and at 9 WAP in LEAR. Differential expression of Bn-FAE1.1 and Bn-FAE1.2 genes was also studied. In each cultivar the same expression profile was observed for both genes, but Bn-FAE1.2 was expressed at a lower level than Bn-FAE1.1. Secondly, VLCMFA synthesis was measured using particulate fractions prepared from maturating seeds harvested weekly after pollination. The oleoyl-CoA and ATP-dependent elongase activities increased from the 4th WAP in HEAR and reached the maximal level at 8 WAP, whereas both activities were absent in LEAR. In contrast, the 3-hydroxy dehydratase, a subunit of the elongase complex, had a similar activity in both cultivars and reached a maximum from 7 to 9 WAP. Finally, antibodies against the 3-ketoacyl-CoA synthase revealed a protein of 57 kDa present only in HEAR. Our results show: (i) that both genes are transcribed in HEAR and LEAR cultivars; (ii) that they are coordinately regulated; (iii) that Bn-FAE1.1 is quantitatively the major isoform expressed in seeds; (iv) that the Bn-FAE1 gene encodes a protein of 57 kDa responsible for the 3-ketoacyl-CoA synthase activity. 相似文献

In this paper, we present a multi-agent framework for data mining in electromyography. This application, based on a web interface, provides a set of functionalities allowing to manipulate 1000 medical cases and more than 25,000 neurological tests stored in a medical database. The aim is to extract medical information using data mining algorithms and to supply a knowledge base with pertinent information. The multi-agent platform gives the possibility to distribute the data management process between several autonomous entities. This framework provides a parallel and flexible data manipulation. 相似文献

Enzymic activities and gene expression of oleoyl-CoA elongase were studied during seed development using two different rapeseed cultivars, high-erucic-acid rapeseed (HEAR) and low-erucic-acid rapeseed (LEAR). The overall elongase activities were maximal in HEAR between the fourth and eighth weeks after pollination (WAP) and absent in LEAR. The 3-ketoacyl-CoA synthase (condensing enzyme, CE) mRNA levels and the developmental profiles in the two cultivars were different since maximal expression levels were detected in HEAR and LEAR at WAP 4 and WAP 6, respectively. Anti-CE antibodies revealed two proteins of 60 and 67 kDa in both cultivars and an additional reacting protein of 57 kDa in HEAR. 相似文献

Investigation within the pTyr-binding pocket of the STAT3 SH2 domain led us to develop a novel synthesis of two pTyr mimetics, l-tetrazolylmethylphenylalanine (l-Tmp) and l-O-malonyltyrosine (l-OMT), that were next incorporated in a high affinity ligand of STAT3 SH2 domain. Biological evaluation of peptidomimetics on STAT3 dimerization identified l-OMT as the first non-phosphorus pTyr mimetic so far reported against STAT3 SH2 domain, harboring an activity similar to that of the Pmp-containing reference peptidomimetic. 相似文献

Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) is a physiological regulator of monocyte-macrophage lineage. Ectopic expression of the M-CSF receptor (M-CSFR, or Fms) in murine myeloid cell line FDC-P1 (FD/Fms cells) results in M-CSF-dependent macrophage differentiation. Previously, we observed that M-CSF induces two temporally distinct phases of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation. Here we show that levels of phosphorylated MAPK kinase MEK1 follow the same kinetics as MAPK phosphorylation, characterized by an early and transient phase (the first 30 min of M-CSF stimulation) and a late and persistent phase from 4 h of stimulation. The MEK inhibitor U0126 strongly inhibited both phases of MAPK phosphorylation as well as FD/Fms cell differentiation, indicating that MAPK may relay M-CSF differentiation signaling downstream of M-CSFR. Treatment of FD/Fms cells with U0126 during the first hour of M-CSF stimulation reversibly blocked the early phase of MAPK phosphorylation but did not affect differentiation. In contrast, U0126 still inhibited FD/Fms cell differentiation when its addition was delayed by 24 h. This demonstrated that late and persistent MEK activity is specifically required for macrophage differentiation to occur. Furthermore, disrupting Grb2-Sos complexes with a specific blocking peptide did not prevent FD/Fms cells differentiation in response to M-CSF, nor did it abolish MAPK phosphorylation. The role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), another potential regulator of the MAPK pathway, was examined using the specific inhibitor LY294002. This compound could not impede FD/Fms cell commitment to macrophage differentiation and did not significantly affect MAPK phosphorylation in response to M-CSF. Therefore, M-CSF differentiation signaling in myeloid progenitor cells is mediated through persistent MEK activity but it is not strictly dependent upon Grb2-Sos interaction or PI 3-kinase activity. 相似文献
