Therapeutic peptide prediction is critical for drug development and therapeutic therapy. Researchers have developed several computational methods to identify different therapeutic peptide types. However, most computational methods focus on identifying the specific type of therapeutic peptides and fail to accurately predict all types of therapeutic peptides. Moreover, it is still challenging to utilize different properties features to predict the therapeutic peptides. In this study, a novel stacking framework PreTP-Stack is proposed for predicting different types of therapeutic peptide. PreTP-Stack is constructed based on ten different features and four predictors (Random Forest, Linear Discriminant Analysis, XGBoost and Support Vector Machine). Then the proposed method constructs an auto-weighted multi-view learning model as a final meta-classifier to enhance the performance of the basic models. Experimental results showed that the proposed method achieved better or highly comparable performance with the state-of-the-art methods for predicting eight types of therapeutic peptides A user-friendly web-server predictor is available at http://bliulab.net/PreTP-Stack.

Rationale: Locked-in syndrome (and its variant, completely locked-in state) generally has a high mortality rate in the acute setting; however, when induced by conditions such as acute inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy, it may well be curable such that an attempt at cure should be systematically sought by clinicians.

Patient Concerns: A 52-year-old man presented with acute tetraparesia and areflexia, initially diagnosed as Guillain-Barré syndrome. Despite appropriate treatment, his condition deteriorated, evolving into a completely locked-in state.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide and inflammation is believed to play an important role in CRC. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the causal association between 91 circulating inflammatory cytokines and the risk of CRC using Mendelian randomization (MR). Based on genome-wide association study summary statistics, we examined the causal effects of 91 circulating inflammatory cytokines on CRC.

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has highlighted the urgent need for novel therapeutic agents targeting viral enzymes such as the main protease (Mpro), which plays a crucial role in viral replication. In this study, we investigate the inhibitory potential of 23 peptides isolated from the skin of amphibians belonging to the Hylidae and Leptodactylidae families against SARS-CoV-2 Mpro. Five peptides demonstrated significant inhibition using a colorimetric Mpro inhibition assay, with IC50 values ranging from 41 to 203 µM.
