Deep learning-based design and experimental validation of a medicine-like human antibody library.

Brief Bioinform

Antibody generation requires the use of one or more time-consuming methods, namely animal immunization, and in vitro display technologies. However, the recent availability of large amounts of antibody sequence and structural data in the public domain along with the advent of generative deep learning algorithms raises the possibility of computationally generating novel antibody sequences with desirable developability attributes. Here, we describe a deep learning model for computationally generating libraries of highly human antibody variable regions whose intrinsic physicochemical properties resemble those of the variable regions of the marketed antibody-based biotherapeutics (medicine-likeness).

Background: Colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) is a malignancy with a high mortality rate and complex biological characteristics and heterogeneity, which poses challenges for clinical treatment. Anoikis is a type of programmed cell death that occurs when cells lose their attachment to the extracellular matrix (ECM), and it plays a crucial role in tumor metastasis. However, the specific biological link between anoikis and COAD, as well as its mechanisms in tumor progression, remains unclear, making it a potential new direction for therapeutic strategy research.

Molecular Mechanisms of Nicergoline from Ergot Fungus in Blocking Human 5-HT3A Receptor.

J Microbiol Biotechnol

November 2024

Department of Biotechnology and Department of Integrative Food, Bioscience and Biotechnology (BK21 FOUR), Chonnam National University, Gwangju 61186, Republic of Korea.

This study investigates the modulatory effects of nicergoline, a major bioactive compound derived from ergot fungus, on the 5-hydroxytryptamine 3A (5-HT3A) receptor. Utilizing a two-electrode voltage-clamp technique, we evaluated the impact of nicergoline on the 5-HT-induced inward current (I) in 5-HT3A receptors. Our findings reveal that nicergoline inhibits I in a reversible and concentration-dependent manner.

The development of thickened fermented rice milk formulation for people with dysphagia: A view of multiple in vitro simulation methods.

Food Res Int

February 2025

College of Food Science, Chongqing Key Laboratory of Speciality Food Co-Built by Sichuan and Chongqing, Southwest University, Chongqing 400715 China. Electronic address:

Based on the huge blank of thickened fluid staple food for people with dysphagia, multiple in vitro simulations were utilized to develop the thickened fermented rice milk. Here, the effect of amylase content, hydrolysis time and thickener content were considered. The rheological study and Cambridge throat evaluation revealed that hydrolysis could significantly reduce the viscosity and yield stress of fermented rice milk, accompanied by the decreased swallowing residue.
