The program introduces characteristic vectors defined from the main-chain atoms as a way to describe the geometrical properties of the structure. ALEPH encodes structural properties in a graph network, the exploration of which allows secondary-structure annotation, decomposition of a structure into small compact folds, generation of libraries of models representing a variation of a given fold and finally superposition of these folds onto a target structure. These functions are available through a graphical interface designed to interactively show the results of structure manipulation, annotation, fold decomposition, clustering and library generation. ALEPH can produce pictures of the graphs, structures and folds for publication purposes. open access.A microtubule (MT) is a tubular stiff polar filament formed by a hierarchical organization of proteins called tubulin. These filaments constitute a major structural component of the scaffold of a multi-component macromolecular machine called mitotic spindle. The plus ends of the MTs are tethered to some specific binding partners by molecular tethers while those of some others are crosslinked by crosslinking molecules. Because of the non-covalent binding involved in the tethering and crosslinking, the attachments formed are intrinsically `soft'. These attachments are transient because these can get ruptured spontaneously by thermal fluctuations. By implementing in-silico the standard protocols of \it in-vitro molecular force spectroscopy, we compute the lifetimes of simple theoretical models of these attachments. The mean lifetime is essentially a mean first-passage time. The stability of cross-linked antiparallel MTs is shown to decrease monotonically with increasing tension, a characteristics of all `slip-bonds'. This is in sharp contrast to the nonmonotonic variation of the mean lifetime with tension, a mechanical fingerprint of `catch-bonds', displayed by the MTs tethered to two distinct binding partners. We mention plausible functional implications of these observations in the context of mechanical proofreading. © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.BACKGROUND Twitter is a microblogging service providing a platform for social networking. For medical information, Twitter is an interesting channel for sharing and spreading information and as an engagement platform for different stakeholders. Benefits and caveats of uncontrolled medical information must be carefully pondered, considering the possible intended and unintended adverse outcomes of uncontrolled influencing. The aim of this study was to describe the non-commercial content shared on Twitter and to analyse the level of influence of commercial tweeters during the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2018 annual meeting held in Munich. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY A retrospective analysis of the tweets shared in the period 19-23 October 2018 indexed with the hashtag #ESMO18 or #ESMO2018 was performed; methodology of systematic reviews was mirrored. Commercial tweeters (pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, device manufacturers and spam tweeters) were excluded from the primary analysis, and only non Twitter could enhance the transparency of the information, as is already happening in medical journals. © Author (s) (or their employer(s)) 2020.

Eligible studies were identified based on defined inclusion criteria. Summarized results of relative risk (RR) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random effects model. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were also performed. The final analysis in this report included a total of 9 articles. The summarized RR and 95%CI from 8 studies for dietary fresh fish intake and glioma risk was 0.823 (95%CI= 0.698-0.970), with no evidence of significant between-study heterogeneity (I2=43.6%, P=0.088). Moreover, positive associations were also found both in Caucasian populations and Asia populations. Seven studies were used to assess the relationship between dietary processed fish intake and the risk of glioma. Significantly increased risk of glioma was found for the highest category of dietary processed fish intake [summarized RR= 1.554, 95%CI= 1.169-2.066, I2= 72.1%, P= 0.001], especially among Caucasian populations. No publication bias was found. In summary, findings from this meta-analysis concluded that dietary fresh fish intake could reduce the risk of glioma. However, very high processed fish intake had a significant association with increased glioma risk.Reconceptualization of different anesthetics as anticancer agents has opened new horizons for a better and sharper analysis of true potential of Sevoflurane as a promising and frontline candidate in the pipeline of anticancer agents. Sevoflurane mediated regulation of cell signaling pathways and non-coding RNAs has leveraged our understanding to another level. There have been remarkable advancements in unraveling mechanistic insights related to the ability of sevoflurane to modulate microRNAs in different cancers. Astonishingly, sevoflurane mediated regulation of miRNAs and long non-coding RNAs have been more comprehensively addressed in ischemia-reperfusion injuries. However, researchers yet have to gather missing pieces of premium research-work to uncover mechanistic regulation of long non-coding RNAs by sevoflurane in various cancers. Sevoflurane modulated control of miRNAs have been reported in glioma, colorectal cancer, breast cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. In this review we have attempted to summarize most recent cutting edge and high-impact experimental researches which have elucidated myriad of underlying mechanisms modulated by sevoflurane to inhibit cancer development and progression.
