Cardiovascular disease is a chronic inflammatory disease with high mortality rates. TNF-alpha is pro-inflammatory and associated with the disease, but current medications have adverse effects. Therefore, efficient inhibitors are urgently needed as al...

Message passing neural networks (MPNNs) on molecular graphs generate continuous and differentiable encodings of small molecules with state-of-the-art performance on protein-ligand complex scoring tasks. Here, we describe the proximity graph network (...
In the presented work, a series of 22 hybrids of 8-quinolinesulfonamide and 1,4-disubstituted triazole with antiproliferative activity were designed and synthesised. The title compounds were designed using molecular modelling techniques. For this pur...

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells represent a revolutionary immunotherapy that allows specific tumor recognition by a unique single-chain fragment variable (scFv) derived from monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). scFv selection is consequently a funda...
Peptides, with recognized physiological and medical implications, such as the ability to lower blood pressure and lipid levels, are central to our research on umami taste perception. This study introduces a computational strategy to tackle the challe...
Septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) is characterized by an abnormal inflammatory response and increased mortality. The role of efferocytosis in SCM is not well understood. We used integrated multi-omics analysis to explore the clinical and genetic roles of e...
BACKGROUND: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a common consequence of hypertension and can lead to heart failure. The immune response plays an important role in hypertensive LVH; however, there is no comprehensive method to investigate the mechan...

Artificial intelligence (AI)-aided drug design has demonstrated unprecedented effects on modern drug discovery, but there is still an urgent need for user-friendly interfaces that bridge the gap between these sophisticated tools and scientists, parti...
BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second leading cause of tumor-related mortality in men. Metastasis from advanced tumors is the primary cause of death among patients. Identifying novel and effective biomarkers is essential for understanding t...
AlphaFold2 (AF2) models have had wide impact but mixed success in retrospective ligand recognition. We prospectively docked large libraries against unrefined AF2 models of the σ and serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptors, testing hundreds of new molecules a...
