The Soil Ecosystem

24.9K
Plants obtain inorganic minerals and water from the soil, which acts as a natural medium for land plants. The composition and quality of soil depend not only on the chemical constituents but also on the presence of living organisms. In general, soils contain three major components:

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression03:03

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression

4.9K
The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.
The mTOR pathway or the...

Tumor Progression02:07

Tumor Progression

7.5K
Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

How Data are Classified: Categorical Data

45.1K
A variable, usually notated by capital letters such as X and Y, is a characteristic or measurement that can be determined for each member of a population. Data are the actual values of variables. They may be numbers, or they may be words. Datum is a single value.
Data are classified based on whether they are measurable or not. Categorical data cannot be measured; instead, it can be divided into categories. For example, if Y denotes a person's party affiliation, some examples of Y include...

How Data are Classified: Numerical Data

38.2K
Data that are countable or measurable in specific units are called numerical or quantitative data. Quantitative data are always numbers. Quantitative data are the result of counting or measuring the attributes of a population. Amount of money, pulse rate, weight, number of people living in a town, and number of students who opt for statistics are examples of quantitative data.
Quantitative data may be either discrete or continuous. All quantitative data that take on only specific numerical...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Bioinformatics
  • Health Informatics

Background:

  • The Cancer Moonshot Blue Ribbon Panel recommended a national cancer data ecosystem in 2016.
  • Progress in building such ecosystems is ongoing, with various approaches being explored.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review approaches and progress in building national cancer data ecosystems.
  • To discuss the role of data commons in cancer data ecosystems and their interoperability.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of approaches for cancer data ecosystem development.
  • Conceptual discussion of data commons and their integration within a larger ecosystem.

Main Results:

  • Data commons, defined as colocated data with cloud infrastructure and tools, are a key component.
  • Interoperability between multiple data commons is essential for a functional cancer data ecosystem.

Conclusions:

  • Data commons offer a viable model for managing, analyzing, and sharing cancer data.
  • Interoperable data commons can serve as a foundational element for a national cancer data ecosystem.
