Maturation of GABAergic signalling times the opening of a critical period in Drosophila melanogaster.

Scientific reports
Critical periods (CPs) during the development of neural networks are widely documented. Activity manipulation during open CPs leads to debilitating effects to the mature neural network. Detailed understanding of the contribution of CPs to network dev...

Selective cytotoxicity of anhydroicaritin in ER-positive breast cancer via ESR1-mediated MAPK and apoptotic signaling.

Chemico-biological interactions
Anhydroicaritin (AHI), a chemically characterized prenylated flavonoid, exhibits strong and selective cytotoxicity against estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer cells. In this study, we aimed to elucidate its molecular and cellular toxicolog...

HMGCR-driven cholesterol metabolism dysregulation and its role in osteoarthritis diagnosis and immune regulation.

Biochemical and biophysical research communications
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease, and the complexity of its molecular mechanisms has hindered the development of effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. In this study, we integrated five independent OA RNA-se...

Multi-omics and machine learning identify GBP2 as a key therapeutic target of Qingre Kasen granules in lupus nephritis via NF-kappaB modulation.

Renal failure
Lupus nephritis (LN), a severe renal complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), results from immune abnormalities. Qingre Kasen granules (QS), which have chicory as the main ingredient, play a significant role in treating various inflammator...

Characterization of binding kinetics and intracellular signaling of new psychoactive substances targeting cannabinoid receptor using transition-based reweighting method.

eLife
New psychoactive substances (NPS) targeting human cannabinoid receptor 1 pose a significant threat to society as recreational abusive drugs that have pronounced physiological side effects. These greater adverse effects compared to classical cannabino...

Weighted gene co-expression network analysis identifies functional modules related to bovine respiratory disease.

PloS one
Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) is a multifactorial disease of dairy and beef cattle that involves complex interactions with the host immune system. In the current study, a comprehensive meta-analysis was performed using a P-value combination approa...

Ligand-receptor interaction profiling as a predictive biomarker for anti-PD-1 therapy response in melanoma.

Clinical and experimental medicine
Cell-to-cell communication through ligand-receptor (LR) interactions can fundamentally shape the tumor microenvironment and immune responses, but the full spectrum of these interactions in anti-PD-1 therapy remains unexplored. We developed a predicti...

Molecular Glues in Immunotherapy: Fine-Tuning Immune Responses for Precision Medicine.

International immunopharmacology
Molecular glues are a new class of tiny compounds that can rewire protein-protein interactions, providing a very selective mechanism to modify immunological signalling pathways. These substances allow immune regulators to be selectively degraded or s...

GraphComm predicts cell cell communication using a graph based deep learning method in single cell RNA sequencing data.

Scientific reports
Interactions between cells coordinate various functions across cell-types in health and disease states. Novel single-cell techniques enable deep investigation of cellular crosstalk at single-cell resolution. Cell-cell communication (CCC) is mediated ...

CRLS1 influences liver metastasis in colon cancer by regulating lipid metabolism pathways.

Functional & integrative genomics
Colon cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality, with liver metastasis commonly complicating its progression and significantly worsening patient prognosis. This study aims to explore the relationship between liver metastasis in ...
