Computational and Spectroscopic Insights Into the Rice Bran Derived Glu‐Gln‐Arg‐Pro‐Arg Pentapeptide as an Anticancer Agent: A DFT, Molecular Docking, and Molecular Dynamics Study

International Journal of Quantum Chemistry, Volume 126, Issue 8, April 15, 2026.
Rice bran–derived neutral EQRPR (L‐Glu‐L‐Gln‐L‐Arg‐L‐Pro‐L‐Arg) pentapeptide was structurally and biologically characterized using DFT calculations, vibrational spectroscopy, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations. The DFT/wb97xd/6–31++G(d,p) level of theory showed the best agreement with the experimental spectra.

Primary and Secondary Grzybowski’s Generalized Eruptive Keratoacanthoma: A New Perspective on Management, Clinical Features, and Prognosis

International Journal of Dermatology, Volume 65, Issue 3, Page 456-463, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Grzybowski's generalized eruptive keratoacanthoma (GEKA) is a rare variant of keratoacanthomas, characterized by hundreds to thousands of lesions, accompanied by pruritus, mucosal involvement, and comorbidities. Our aim was to analyze the clinical presentation, associated comorbidities, treatment strategies, and outcomes of GEKA.

The In Vitro Transgenic Rodent Assay in Primary MutaMouse Hepatocytes Compared to the Mammalian Cell Gene Mutation Assay Using the HPRT Gene

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, Volume 67, Issue 1-2, January‐February 2026.
ABSTRACT Gene mutations can be detected in mammalian cells in vitro using indicator genes such as the hypoxanthine‐guanine‐phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) gene. These assays have been adopted as OECD test guidelines (TG, e.g., OECD TG no. 476) and are used for regulatory purposes.

A Porcine Monoclonal Antibody Targeting a Conserved GP4 Epitope Protects against In Vivo Infection via the Induction of Broad‐Spectrum PRRSV Neutralization

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 44, November 27, 2025.
This study developed mAb‐5F2, a monoclonal antibody targeting conserved GP4 residues (Q48/I50), which blocks the GP4‐CD163 interaction, resulting in a 78–85% reduction in viral entry. Porcineized 5F2‐pFc prevented mortality in infected piglets, reduced pulmonary viral loads, and minimized lesions. This broad‐spectrum antibody platform overcomes vaccine

Endogenous Retrovirus‐Like Particle‐Deficient CHO Cells Can be Generated by CRISPR or shRNA and Enriched Based on Cell‐Surface Expression of Retroviral Envelope Protein

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 122, Issue 11, Page 3192-3204, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Despite evidence that they are not functional or infective, retrovirus‐like particles (RVLPs), originating from endogenous proviral sequences in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, present a safety risk for biotherapeutics manufactured using this cell line due to their resemblance to other mammalian leukemia viruses.
