Artificial intelligence (AI)-aided drug design has demonstrated unprecedented effects on modern drug discovery, but there is still an urgent need for user-friendly interfaces that bridge the gap between these sophisticated tools and scientists, particularly those who are less computer savvy. Herein, we present DrugFlow, an AI-driven one-stop platform that offers a clean, convenient, and cloud-based interface to streamline early drug discovery workflows. By seamlessly integrating a range of innovative AI algorithms, covering molecular docking, quantitative structure-activity relationship modeling, molecular generation, ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity) prediction, and virtual screening, DrugFlow can offer effective AI solutions for almost all crucial stages in early drug discovery, including hit identification and hit/lead optimization. We hope that the platform can provide sufficiently valuable guidance to aid real-word drug design and discovery. The platform is available at https://drugflow.com.

Since its discovery, carbon quantum dots (CDs) have been widely applied in cell imaging, drug delivery, biosensing, and photocatalysis due to their excellent water solubility, chemical stability, fluorescence stability biocompatibility, low toxicity, and preparation cost. However, the low fluorescence yield and poor surface structure limit the application of CDs. Heteroatom doping is considered an ideal method to improve CDs' optical and electrical properties.

Dementia refers to an umbrella phenotype of many different underlying pathologies with Alzheimer's disease (AD) being the most common type. Neuropathological examination remains the gold standard for accurate AD diagnosis, however, most that we know about AD genetics is based on Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) of clinically defined AD. Such studies have identified multiple AD susceptibility variants with a significant portion of the heritability unexplained and highlighting the phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity of the clinically defined entity.

Background: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common histologic type of RCC. However, the spatial and functional heterogeneity of immunosuppressive cells and the mechanisms by which their interactions promote immunosuppression in the ccRCC have not been thoroughly investigated.
Methods: To further investigate the cellular and regional heterogeneity of ccRCC, we analyzed single-cell and spatial transcriptome RNA sequencing data from four patients, which were obtained from samples from multiple regions, including the tumor core, tumor-normal interface, and distal normal tissue.

Janus kinases (JAK1-3, TYK2) are critical mediators of cytokine signaling and their role in hematological and inflammatory and autoimmune diseases has sparked widespread interest in their therapeutic targeting. JAKs have unique tandem kinase structure consisting of an active tyrosine kinase domain adjacent to a pseudokinase domain that is a hotspot for pathogenic mutations. The development of JAK inhibitors has focused on the active kinase domain and the developed drugs have demonstrated good clinical efficacy but due to off-target inhibition cause also side-effects and carry a black box warning limiting their use.

FOXM1 is the "Achilles' heel" of cancers and hence the potential therapeutic target for anticancer drug discovery. In this work, we selected high affinity peptides against the protein of human DNA binding domain of FOXM1 (FOXM1-DBD) from the disulfide-constrained, phage displayed random cyclic heptapeptide library Ph.D.
