Bacteria frequently employ carbohydrate-binding proteins, so-called lectins, to colonize and persist in a host. Thus, bacterial lectins are attractive targets for the development of new antiinfectives. To find new potential targets for antiinfectives against pathogenic bacteria, we searched for homologs of Pseudomonas aeruginosa lectins and identified homologs of LecA in Enterobacter species.

Objectives: Sialidosis type 1 is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the gene, which encodes the sialic acid-degrading enzyme α-neuraminidase. Sialidosis type 1 is a milder form with a late-onset phenotype, characterized by progressive myoclonic epilepsy and ataxia with cherry-red spots. Sialidosis type 2 is an early-onset and more severe form presenting with dysmorphic features, hepatosplenomegaly and cognitive delay.

In this paper, a recurrent neural network is proposed for distributed nonconvex optimization subject to globally coupled (in)equality constraints and local bound constraints. Two distributed optimization models, including a resource allocation problem and a consensus-constrained optimization problem, are established, where the objective functions are not necessarily convex, or the constraints do not guarantee a convex feasible set. To handle the nonconvexity, an augmented Lagrangian function is designed, based on which a recurrent neural network is developed for solving the optimization models in a distributed manner, and the convergence to a local optimal solution is proven.

Accurate modeling of host-guest systems is challenging in modern computational chemistry. It requires intermolecular interaction patterns to be correctly described and, more importantly, the dynamic behaviors of macrocyclic hosts to be accurately modeled. Pillar[]arenes as a crucial family of macrocycles play a critical role in host-guest chemistry and biomedical applications.

Cisplatin is a platinum-based chemotherapeutic drug used to treat many types of cancer. The aim of this study was to develop a population pharmacokinetic model that incorporates plasma unbound and bound platinum levels. Cancer patients undergoing their first or second cycle of cisplatin-containing chemotherapy (n = 33) were prospectively randomized to receive a 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) antagonist (5-HTA) antiemetic (ondansetron, granisetron, or palonosetron) followed by blood collection over 10 days.
