Khelifati, Abdelouahab ; Khayati, Mourad ; Cudré-Mauroux, Philippe ; Hänni, Adrian ; Liu, Qian ; Hauswirth, Manfred

In: IEEE 37th International Conference on Data Engineering (ICDE), 2021, p. 2661--2664

Anomaly detection is a fundamental problem that consists of identifying irregular patterns that do not conform to the expected behavior of a system or the generated data. Many anomaly detection techniques have been proposed for time series data. However, selecting the most suitable detection method remains challenging as the proposed techniques widely vary in performance. The appropriate...

Inhibition of p38mapk reduces adipose tissue inflammation in aging mediated by arginase-II

Huang, Ji ; Liu, Chang ; Ming, Xiu-Fen ; Yang, Zhihong

In: Pharmacology, 2020, vol. 105, no. 9–10, p. 491–504

Background: Adipose tissue inflammation occurs not only in obesity but also in aging and is mechanistically linked with age-associated diseases. Studies show that ablation of the l-arginine-metabolizing enzyme arginase-II (Arg-II) reduces adipose tissue inflammation and improves glucose tolerance in obesity. However, the role of Arg-II in aging adipose tissue inflammation is not clear....
