Non-Hemolytic Peptide Classification Using A Quantum Support Vector Machine [PDF]

arXiv
Quantum machine learning (QML) is one of the most promising applications of quantum computation. However, it is still unclear whether quantum advantages exist when the data is of a classical nature and the search for practical, real-world applications of QML remains active.

Synergistic Modulating of Mitochondrial Transfer and Immune Microenvironment to Attenuate Discogenic Pain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gallic acid (GA) and copper ions self‐assemble to form nanoparticles, which are then modified with mitochondrial targeting peptides and gap junction modulator. These nanoparticles scavenge mitochondrial reactive oxygen species to induce M2 polarization and enhance intercellular mitochondrial transfer.

Peptide-GPT: Generative Design of Peptides using Generative Pre-trained Transformers and Bio-informatic Supervision [PDF]

arXiv
In recent years, natural language processing (NLP) models have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in various domains beyond traditional text generation. In this work, we introduce PeptideGPT, a protein language model tailored to generate protein sequences with distinct properties: hemolytic activity, solubility, and non-fouling characteristics.

Hydrogel‐Transformable Probiotic Powder for Targeted Eradication of Helicobacter pylori with Enhanced Gastric Mucosal Repair and Microbiota Preservation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multifunctional, edible, and hydrogel‐transformable probiotic powder is developed based on the “bacteria‐mediated bacterial eradication” strategy. By leveraging the targeted binding capability of L. reuteri to H. pylori, this approach achieves an integrated therapeutic effect, including bactericidality, anti‐inflammation, gastric mucosal repair, and ...

Self‐Assembly of Linear, Natural Antimicrobial Peptides: An Evolutionary Perspective

ChemPlusChem, Volume 87, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Antimicrobial peptides are an ancient defence against a wide range of microbes. Some can self‐assemble into oligomers and amyloid. Similarities with neurodegenerative diseases support a hypothesis that some diseases are due to aberrant activity of a protective neuropeptide.

Antibacterial effects of natural compounds on biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1426-1433, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Streptococcus mutans is the main cariogenic pathogen in the oral cavity, considered to contribute toward oral diseases. S. mutans is predominantly entrapped in plaque biofilms. Objectives In this study, we surveyed the antibacterial activity of natural compounds in terms of the biofilm production of S. mutans. Material and Methods We extracted

Mechanical Biomimetic Nanocomposites for Multidimensional Treatment of Arterial Thrombosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a mechanical biomimetic nanocomposite is developed, guided by photoacoustic imaging, to achieve highly efficient and safe thrombolysis through the synergistic effects of photothermal therapy and pharmacological intervention. Most notably, the nanoparticle improves the microenvironment of arterial thrombi, marked by high shear stress and ...
