Bacterial sepsis remains a leading cause of death globally, exacerbated by the rise of multidrug resistance (MDR). Host-directed therapy (HDT) has emerged as a promising nonantibiotic approach to combat infections; thus, multiple HDT targets have bee...
UNLABELLED: Antimicrobial resistance is an escalating global health crisis, underscoring the urgent need for timely and targeted therapies to ensure effective clinical treatment. We developed a machine learning model based on metagenomic next-generat...
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are attractive candidates to combat antibiotic resistance for their capability to target biomembranes and restrict a wide range of pathogens. It is a daunting challenge to discover novel AMPs due to their sparse distribu...
Artificial intelligence holds great promise for the design of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs); however, current models face limitations in generating AMPs with sufficient novelty and diversity, and they are rarely applied to the generation of antifunga...

Essential oils (EOs) exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities; however, their clinical application is hindered by challenges, such as variability in chemical composition and chemical/physical instability. A critical limitation is the lack of...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a promising approach to identify new antimicrobial compounds in diverse microbial species. Here we developed an AI-based, explainable deep learning model, EvoGradient, that predicts the potency of antimicrobial peptide...
Bioactive peptides, as small protein fragments, are essential mediators of diverse physiological activities, such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory functions. Despite their substantial potential in pha...
BACKGROUND: Acinetobacter baumanni infection is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Early recognition of patients at risk for infection allows early proper treatment and is associated with improved outcomes. T...
Fast and accurate detection of infectious bacteria in wounds is crucial for effective clinical treatment. However, traditional methods take over 24 h to yield results, which is inadequate for urgent clinical needs. Here, we introduce a deep learning-...
