Accurate estimation of the size of spheroid organelles from thin sectioned material is often necessary, as uniquely homogenous populations of organelles such as vessicles, granules, or nuclei often are critically important in the morphological identification of similar cell types. However, the difficulty in obtaining accurate diameter measurements of thin sectioned organelles is well known. This difficulty is due to the extreme tenuity of the sectioned material as compared to the size of the intact organelle. In populations where low variance is suspected the traditional method of diameter estimation has been to measure literally hundreds of profiles and to describe the “largest” as representative of the “approximate maximal diameter”.

Abstract Chronic myeloproliferative disorders (MPD) are clonal diseases of the pluripotent hematopoietic stem cell frequently associated with myelofibrosis (MF). There is only indirect evidence indicating that the increased deposition of collagen in bone marrow matrix is a secondary phenomenon. A liquid culture system for cloning and growing bone marrow fibroblasts has permitted us to approach more directly the understanding of the pathogenesis of myelofibrosis by comparing the biophysical, growth, and functional characteristics of fibroblasts from normals, MPD patients without MF, and those with MF. In patients with MF, marrow fibroblast colony (CFU-F) formation could not be studied; fibroblasts were grown from marrow explants. CFU-E from normals and MPD patients exhibited similar cell density distribution and similar cell sedimentation rates. These similarities contrasted sharply with the differences seen when the erythroid and granulocyte-macrophage progenitors were studied by the same methods. There was a marked light density shift and a rapidly sedimenting shift of MPD hematopoietic colony-forming cells. Marrow fibroblasts from MPD patients with and without MF displayed the same in vitro growth characteristics as fibroblasts from normals. Both types of fibroblasts exhibited anchorage and serum dependence, and contact inhibition of growth. Marrow fibroblasts were also characterized for the presence and distribution of fibronectin and collagen types by immunofluorescent staining using monospecific antibodies. Extracellular matrix, membrane-, and cytoplasm- associated fibronectin, type I, type III, and type V collagen showed a similar staining pattern in both normal and myelofibrotic marrow fibroblasts. Plasminogen-dependent fibrinolytic activity elicited from normal and myelofibrotic marrow fibroblasts were equivalent. Chromosomal analysis of hematopoietic cells and marrow fibroblasts from Philadelphia chromosome positive chronic myelocytic leukemia patients with and without MF showed that the Philadelphia chromosome was present only in hematopoietic cells. The results of these studies taken together demonstrate that bone marrow collagen-producing cells from MPD patients with and without MF behave in vitro as do those from normals. These findings support the hypothesis that that the marrow fibrosis observed in patients with MPD results from a reactive process rather than from a primary disorder affecting the marrow collagen-producing cells.

Abstract Anti-cancer medicine for a particular patient has been a personal medical goal. Many computational models have been proposed by researchers to predict drug response. But predictive accuracy still remains a challenge. Base on this concept which “Similar cells have similar responses to drugs”, we developed the basic method of matrix factorization method by adding fines to similarity. So that the distance of latent factors to two cell lines or (drug) should be inversely related to similarity. This means that two similar drugs or similar cell lines should have a short distance, whereas two similar cell lines or non-similar drugs should have a large gap with their latent factors. We proposed a Dual similarity-regularized matrix factorization (DSRMF) model, then generated new data for drug similarity from the two-dimensional three-dimensional chemical structure, which were obtained from the CCLE and GDSC databases. In this research, by using the proposed model, and generating new drug similarity data we achieved the average Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) about 0.96, and average mean square error (RMSE) Root about 0.30, between the observed value and the predicted value for the cell line response to the drug. Our analysis in this research showed, using heterogeneous data, has better results, and can be obtained with the proposed model, using other panels’ cancer cell lines, to calculate similarity between cells. Also, by imposing more restrictions on the similarity between cells, we were able to achieve more accurate prediction for the response of the cell line to the anticancer drug.
