Cysteine-focused chemical proteomic platforms have accelerated the clinical development of covalent inhibitors for a wide range of targets in cancer. However, how different oncogenic contexts influence cysteine targeting remains unknown. To address this question, we have developed "DrugMap," an atlas of cysteine ligandability compiled across 416 cancer cell lines.

This paper investigates the use of machine learning algorithms to aid medical professionals in the detection and risk assessment of diabetes. The research employed a dataset gathered from individuals with type 2 diabetes in Ninh Binh, Vietnam. A variety of classification algorithms, including Decision Tree Classifier, Logistic Regression, SVC, Ada Boost Classifier, Gradient Boosting Classifier, Random Forest Classifier, and K Neighbors Classifier, were utilized to identify the most suitable algorithm for the dataset.

Article Synopsis
  • Drug development is a costly and complicated journey, often relying on traditional 2D cell cultures that don't replicate real tissue environments well.
  • This study introduced a budget-friendly microfluidic device made from common materials, costing only $17.75, which allows for 3D cell cultures under both dynamic and static conditions.
  • Testing showed that under dynamic conditions, cell viability dropped to about 30% after 72 hours when using a specific drug, highlighting the potential of this device to enhance drug testing accuracy and efficiency.

Peripheral neuropathy is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) that results in nerve conduction abnormalities. This study aimed to investigate the parameters of nerve conduction in lower extremities among T2DM patients in Vietnam. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 61 T2DM patients aged 18 years and older, diagnosed according to the American Diabetes Association's criteria.

Hepatocellular carcinoma is a common type of cancer associated with a high mortality rate. Among several bioactive compounds, Murrayafoline A (MuA) has been proved as a bio substance that exhibits great potentials in treating liver cancer. In order to overcome the high cytotoxicity and low solubility of MuA, a delivery system based on nanocarriers is necessary to deliver MuA towards the desired target.

Liposomal encapsulation is a drug delivery strategy with many advantages, such as improved bioavailability, ability to carry large drug loads, as well as controllability and specificity towards various targeted diseased tissues. Currently, most preparation techniques require an additional extrusion or filtering step to obtain monodisperse liposomes with the size of less than 100 nm. In this study, a compact liposome extruder was designed at a cost of $4.

Potato is one of the most important food crops worldwide in terms of human consumption. However, potato farmers employ a variety of pesticides to protect crops from harmful insects and illnesses, and difenoconazole is a commonly used one that has severe effects on human health and the environment. Therefore, detecting difenoconazole quickly and correctly is critical.

The higher rate of non-synonymous over synonymous substitutions (dN/dS) of the X chromosome compared with autosomes is often interpreted as a consequence of X hemizygosity. However, other factors, such as gene expression, are also known to vary between X and autosomes. Analysing 4800 orthologues in six mammals, we found that gene expression levels, associated with GC content, fully account for the variation in dN/dS between X and autosomes with no detectable effect of hemizygosity.
