We developed an experimental model of anterior uveitis by injecting ovalbumin or bovine serum albumin into the anterior chamber of sensitized rabbits. All the eyes showed leakage of serum proteins into the aqueous humor within 30 min. and developed uveitis within 24 hrs. which lasted at least a week. On histological examination, large numbers of polymorphonuclear (PMN) leucocytes and only occasional mononuclear cells were seen in the iris, the ciliary body and the irido-corneal angle. Immunohistological examination revealed 7s gamma globulin in the walls of blood vessels, in the interstitium and inside the PMN leucocytes. Contact radiographs of eyes challenged repeatedly showed extensive neovascularization of the iris and ciliary body.

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small peptides that play an important role in disease defense. As the problem of pathogen resistance caused by the misuse of antibiotics intensifies, the identification of AMPs as alternatives to antibiotics has become a hot topic. Accurately identifying AMPs using computational methods has been a key issue in the field of bioinformatics in recent years.

Identifying drug-target binding affinity (DTA) plays a critical role in early-stage drug discovery. Despite the availability of various existing methods, there are still two limitations. Firstly, sequence-based methods often extract features from fixed length protein sequences, requiring truncation or padding, which can result in information loss or the introduction of unwanted noise.

DNA methylation is a crucial epigenetic modification that orchestrates chromatin remodelers that suppress transcription, and aberrations in DNA methylation result in a variety of conditions such as cancers and developmental disorders. While it is understood that methylation occurs at CpG-rich DNA regions, it is less understood how distinct methylation profiles are established within various cell types. In this work, we develop a molecular-transport model that depicts the genomic exploration of DNA methyltransferase within a multiscale DNA environment, incorporating biologically relevant factors like methylation rate and CpG density to predict how patterns are established.

Natural bone is a self-regenerating nanocomposite made of proteins and minerals. Such self-regenerative capacity can be negatively affected by certain diseases involving the bone or its surrounding tissues. Our study assesses the ability of bone grafting material to regenerate bone in animals who have artificially created critical-sized defects.
