TripHLApan: predicting HLA molecules binding peptides based on triple coding matrix and transfer learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) is an important molecule family in the field of human immunity, which recognizes foreign threats and triggers immune responses by presenting peptides to T cells. In recent years, the synthesis of tumor vaccines to induce specific immune responses has become the forefront of cancer treatment.

Different Strategies for Cancer Treatment: Mathematical Modeling [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 We formulate and analyze a mathematical model describing immune response to avascular tumor under the influence of immunotherapy and chemotherapy and their combinations as well as vaccine treatments. The effect of vaccine therapy is considered as a parametric perturbation of the model.

What cleaves? Is proteasomal cleavage prediction reaching a ceiling? [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Epitope vaccines are a promising direction to enable precision treatment for cancer, autoimmune diseases, and allergies. Effectively designing such vaccines requires accurate prediction of proteasomal cleavage in order to ensure that the epitopes in the vaccine are presented to T cells by the major histocompatibility complex (MHC).

Intraoral Drug Delivery: Bridging the Gap Between Academic Research and Industrial Innovations
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Intraoral drug delivery offers a promising route for systemic and localized therapies, yet challenges such as enzymatic degradation, limited permeability, and microbial interactions hinder efficacy. This figure highlights innovative strategies—mucoadhesive materials, enzyme inhibitors, and permeation enhancers—to overcome these barriers.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The new generation nanobomb, termed the stealth nanobomb, is fabricated through self‐assembly using a polymeric carbon monoxide carrier (PLGA(CO)), small molecule near‐infrared‐active agents (2TT‐OC46B), and phospholipid polyethylene glycol (DSPE‐mPEG2000). The stealth nanobomb can circulate in the bloodstream and specifically target pancreatic cancer,

Immune profiling of age and adjuvant-specific activation of human blood mononuclear cells in vitro
Communications BiologyVaccination reduces morbidity and mortality due to infections, but efficacy may be limited due to distinct immunogenicity at the extremes of age. This raises the possibility of employing adjuvants to enhance immunogenicity and protection.

Random Measures, ANOVA Models and Quantifying Uncertainty in Randomized Controlled Trials [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This short paper introduces a novel approach to global sensitivity analysis, grounded in the variance-covariance structure of random variables derived from random measures. The proposed methodology facilitates the application of information-theoretic rules for uncertainty quantification, offering several advantages.
