A video of an apparent funeral procession where what appears to be a corpse suddenly runs away when an alarm rings out is being shared with a misleading claim that it shows people “scared of Israel’s drones”.

During the video, a group appear to be carrying a shrouded body, which they put down and run away from when a siren sounds. The ‘dead body’ then also gets up and runs off, to laughter from the person filming.

The footage has been shared with the caption: “Even dead are scared of Israel’s Drones [sic].” That suggests the video shows people being targeted by Israeli drones, possibly in Gaza or Lebanon given current events in the Middle East. But this is not the case.

The video was actually filmed in Jordan in 2020, during the Covid-19 pandemic. It…

Hepatocyte specific model

Starting with the thermodynamically curated human genome-scale Recon 3D^30,31, we reconstructed a hepatocyte metabolic model by taking into account the physiology of hepatocytes and the genes expressed in liver cells. Towards this end, we defined the physiology of hepatocytes by integrating in the human Recon3D model publicly available fluxomics data for 92 boundary reactions²⁸ and metabolomics data for 213 metabolites²⁹ from previous hepatocyte model reconstructions. Additionally, we set the growth rate of the hepatocyte to a maximum of 0.014 h⁻¹ corresponding to a doubling time of 49.5 h⁴⁹ and the ATP maintenance rate to at least 1.07 mmol/gDW/h⁵⁰. The Human Protein Atlas (www.proteinatlas.org)²⁷ was used to identify 1853 metabolic genes present in…
