In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), the mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET) receptor drives cancer growth, proliferation, and metastasis. MET is known to be overexpressed in HNSCC and, therefore, is an appealing therapeutic target. In this study, we evaluated MET expression in patients with HNSCC and investigated the potential imaging application of a novel MET-binding single-domain camelid antibody using positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in a preclinical MET-expressing HNSCC model.

Machine learning (ML) has transformed protein engineering by constructing models of the underlying sequence-function landscape to accelerate the discovery of new biomolecules. ML-guided protein design requires models, trained on local sequence-function information, to accurately predict distant fitness peaks. In this work, we evaluate neural networks' capacity to extrapolate beyond their training data.

TFF3 is a typical secretory poplypeptide of mucous epithelia belonging to the trefoil factor family (TFF) of lectins. In the intestine, respiratory tract, and saliva, TFF3 mainly exists as a high-molecular-mass complex with IgG Fc binding protein (FCGBP), which is indicative of a role in mucosal innate immunity. For the first time, we identified different forms of TFF3 in the endocervix, i.

Objective To identify the possibility of IgG Fc binding protein (FCGBP) acting as a prognostic marker of low-grade glioma (LGG) and its correlation with immune infiltration. Methods The expression of FCGBP was analyzed in pan-cancer using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Genotypic tissue expression (GTEX), and China Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) database. Then, GSE15824 and GSE68848 datasets were selected for further verification.

An effective prophylactic vaccine would be beneficial for controlling and eradicating hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections. However, the high diversity across HCV genotypes is a major challenge for vaccine development. Selection of the appropriate immunogen is critical to elicit broad HCV neutralizing antibodies (NAbs).
