Wound healing in adults largely depends on the functional state of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). Human fetal tissues at the early stages of development are known to heal quickly with a full-quality restoration of the original structure. The differences in the molecular mechanisms that determine the functional activity of mesodermal cells in fetuses and adults remain virtually unknown.

Given that both amino acids and hydrogen peroxide occur in nature in two enantiomeric forms, it is crucial to investigate the formation of complexes between them, considering the role of molecular chirality. In this work, we report a theoretical study on the hydrogen peroxide enantiomers and their interactions with L- and S-serine and their clusters.

A data-driven statistical method is used to mitigate the large uncorrelated background in central Pb-Pb collisions.
