AI-driven discovery of dual antiaging and anti-AD therapeutics via PROTAC target deconvolution of a super-enhancer-regulated axis.

Science advances
The lack of safe, durable therapeutics that act against both biological aging and Alzheimer's disease is an unmet clinical need. To bridge this gap, we devised an artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled approach that pairs rapid compound triage with mec...

Exploring nationwide patterns of sleep problems from late adolescence to adulthood using machine learning.

Science advances
Sleep problems among young adults pose a major public health challenge. Leveraging nationwide health surveys and registers from Denmark, we investigated patterns of sleep problems from late adolescence to adulthood and explored early life-course dete...

A classification approach to estimating human circadian phase under circadian alignment from actigraphy and photometry data.

Journal of pineal research
The time of dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) is the gold standard for circadian phase assessment in humans, but collection of samples for DLMO is time and resource-intensive. Numerous studies have attempted to estimate circadian phase from actigraphy...

Generalizability of A Neural Network Model for Circadian Phase Prediction in Real-World Conditions.

Scientific reports
A neural network model was previously developed to predict melatonin rhythms accurately from blue light and skin temperature recordings in individuals on a fixed sleep schedule. This study aimed to test the generalizability of the model to other slee...

Diagnostic utility of serum melatonin levels in systemic lupus erythematosus: a case-control study.

Reumatismo
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic systemic autoimmune inflammatory disease and early diagnosis is of clinical and therapeutic importance. Melatonin is an endogenous endolamine hormone that plays an important role in the immune system du...

Phase Relationship between DLMO and Sleep Onset and the Risk of Metabolic Disease among Normal Weight and Overweight/Obese Adults.

Journal of biological rhythms
Circadian misalignment is hypothesized to contribute to increased diabetes and obesity among shift workers and individuals with late sleep timing. Accordingly, the goal of our study was to identify-among normal and overweight/obese adults-association...

Melatonin administration lowers biomarkers of oxidative stress and cardio-metabolic risk in type 2 diabetic patients with coronary heart disease: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Melatonin may benefit diabetic people with coronary heart disease (CHD) through its beneficial effects on biomarkers of oxidative stress and cardio-metabolic risk. This investigation evaluated the effects of melatonin administratio...

Estimating the dim light melatonin onset of adolescents within a 6-h sampling window: the impact of sampling rate and threshold method.

Sleep medicine
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND: Circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders (CRSWDs) often manifest during the adolescent years. Measurement of circadian phase such as the dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) improves diagnosis and treatment of these disorders, but fina...

Melatonin Alleviates Retina Angiogenesis by Targeting Fibronectin and the VEGF Pathway.

FASEB journal : official publication of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) continue to be significant causes of vision impairment despite the well-established role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in pathological angiogenesis. We still need to deeply...
