In view of increased interest in object-oriented systems for describing coordinate information, we present a description of the data model used by the Starlink AST library. AST provides a comprehensive range of facilities for attaching world co-ordinate systems to astronomical data, and for retrieving and interpreting…

To ensure survival, the brain must rapidly identify threats and maintain defensive behaviors for as long as danger is present. The amygdala has been studied as a key site for fear responses, but responses to threat cues in amygdala neurons are largely transient and shorter in duration than defensive responses observed.…

Large language models (LLMs) have made significant advancements in code-related tasks, yet many LLMs treat code as simple sequences, neglecting its structured nature. We introduce AST-T5, a novel pretraining paradigm that leverages the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) for enhanced code generation, transpilation, and…

In order to respond appropriately to threats in the environment, the brain must rapidly determine whether a stimulus is important and whether it is positive or negative, and then use that information to direct behavioral responses. Neurons in the amygdala have long been implicated in valence encoding and in fear…

Summarization Authors: ['Ze Tang' 'Chuanyi Li' 'Jidong Ge' 'Xiaoyu Shen' 'Zheling Zhu' 'Bin Luo'] Abstract—Code summarization aims to generate brief natural language descriptions for source code. As source code is highly structured and follows strict programming language grammars, its Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) is…

Antimicrobial resistance and tolerance pose escalating global health threats, necessitating reproducible and accessible tools for antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST). While disk diffusion assays (DDAs) and Epsilometer tests (Etests) are widely used, there are limited open-source tools to analyze them. We present…

The mechanisms that regulate human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) latency are not fully elucidated. We reported that an HIV-1 antisense transcript (AST) induces epigenetic modifications at the HIV-1 promoter causing a closed chromatin state that suppresses viral transcription. Here we show that ectopic expression of…

The allatostatin (AST) family of neuropeptides are widespread in arthropods. The multitude of structures and pleiotropic actions reflect the tremendous morphological, physiological and behavioral diversity of the phylum. Regarding the AST-C (with C-terminal PISCF motif) peptides, crustaceans commonly express three…

The Starlink AST library provides a comprehensive range of facilities for attaching world co-ordinate systems to astronomical data, for retrieving and interpreting that information in a variety of formats, including FITS-WCS (Calabretta & Greisen 1999), and for generating graphical output based on it. It is a mature…

Natural antisense transcripts are expressed in eukaryotes, prokaryotes, and viruses and can possess regulatory functions at the transcriptional and/or post-transcriptional levels. In vitro studies have shown that HIV-1 antisense transcripts (AST) promote viral latency through epigenetic silencing of the proviral 5′…

Due to the ongoing concern for the development of rapid and accurate antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) methods in the field of clinical microbiology, several novel AST systems have been developed to replace the traditional gold standard AST techniques, which are time-consuming and can lead to delayed…

'Per H. Gesteland' 'Sashidhar R. Yerram' 'Flory L. Nkoy'] Background Pediatric asthma affects 7.1 million American children incurring an annual total direct healthcare cost around 9.3 billion dollars. Asthma control in children is suboptimal, leading to frequent asthma exacerbations, excess costs, and decreased quality…

'Rute S. Martins' 'Henrique Silveira' 'Deborah M. Power' 'João C. R. Cardoso' 'Christian Wegener'] Allatostatin type A receptors (AST-ARs) are a group of G-protein coupled receptors activated by members of the FGL-amide (AST-A) peptide family that inhibit food intake and development in arthropods. Despite their…

3.4.### The remission of clinical symptoms in colitis mice AST can reduce inflammation in tissues and organs and is essential in combating intestinal inflammation and stomach ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori (38). Studies have shown that AST can reduce DSS-induced weight loss, inflammatory infiltration and goblet…

'Bangda Li' 'Huimin Chen' 'Weiying Lin' 'Hua Yang' 'Zhongquan Qi' 'Xuehui Hong' 'Xiao Dong Chen'] Astaxanthin (AST), a red pigment of the carotenoids, has various advantageous biological activities. Nevertheless, the wide application of AST is restricted due to its poor water solubility and highly unsaturated…

'Rebecca Fernandez' 'Alexandra Miller' 'Sovannarath Pong' 'Brian W. Powers' 'Alixander Pupo-Wiss' 'Meredith E. Stanhope' 'Patrick J. Walsh' 'Teerawat Wiwatpanit' 'Andrew E. Christie'] C-type allatostatins (AST-Cs) are pleiotropic neuropeptides that are broadly conserved within arthropods; the presence of three AST-C…

Astragaloside VII (AST VII), a plant triterpenoid saponin isolated from Astragalus species, shows promise as vaccine adjuvant, as it supports a balanced Th1/Th2 immune response. However, the underlying mechanisms of its adjuvant activity have not been defined. Here we investigated the impact of AST VII and its newly…

—As one of the most detrimental code smells, code clones significantly increase software maintenance costs and heighten vulnerability risks, making their detection a critical challenge in software engineering. Abstract Syntax Trees (ASTs) dominate deep learning-based code clone detection due to their precise syntactic…

Cube-like double four-ring ( d4r ) cages are among the most frequent building units of zeolites and zeotypes. In materials synthesised in fluoride-containing media, the fluoride anions are preferentially incorporated in these cages. In order to study the impact of framework composition and organic structure-directing…

We provide a scheme to correct asteroid astrometric observations for star catalog systematic errors due to inaccurate star positions and proper motions. As reference we select the most accurate stars in the PPMXL catalog, i.e., those based on 2MASS astrometry. We compute position and proper motion corrections for 19 of…
