HSEARCH: fast and accurate protein sequence motif search and clustering [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Protein motifs are conserved fragments occurred frequently in protein sequences. They have significant functions, such as active site of an enzyme. Search and clustering protein sequence motifs are computational intensive. Most existing methods are not fast enough to analyze large data sets for motif finding or achieve low accuracy for motif clustering.

MYC: The Guardian of Its Own Chaos

BioEssays, EarlyView.
MYC is an oncogene that drives tumorigenesis through enhanced transcription and replication. Paradoxically, MYC induces transcriptional and replicative stress and acts as a resilience factor against these stressors. We discuss how MYC balances these stressors to promote tumor growth while evading immune detection and propose strategies to target MYC ...

The contribution of extracellular RNA and its derived biomaterials in disease management

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The implications of exRNA's biological function and the structural uniqueness of RNA help establish a close connection between RNA, material, and modern medicine. Abstract The RNA found in the circular system is known as extracellular RNA (exRNA). This kind of RNA has been found to play a biological role similar to that of a messenger. They can be used

Protein Hypernetworks: a Logic Framework for Interaction Dependencies and Perturbation Effects in Protein Networks [PDF]

arXiv, 2011
Motivation: Protein interactions are fundamental building blocks of biochemical reaction systems underlying cellular functions. The complexity and functionality of such systems emerge not from the protein interactions themselves but from the dependencies between these interactions.

Extranodal diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma: Clinical and molecular insights with survival outcomes from the multicenter EXPECT study

Cancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of aggressive non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma with distinct clinical and molecular heterogeneity. DLBCL that arises in extranodal organs is particularly linked to poor prognosis. This study aimed to determine the clinical and molecular characteristics of extranodal involvement (

Effect of Cytochrome P450 3A Inhibition and Induction by Itraconazole and Rifampin on Tazemetostat Pharmacokinetics in Patients With Advanced Malignancies

Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, EarlyView.
Abstract This study (NCT04537715) investigated itraconazole (strong cytochrome P450 [CYP] 3A inhibitor) and rifampin (strong CYP3A inducer) on tazemetostat pharmacokinetics. In Part 1, patients received tazemetostat 400 mg orally on Days 1, 15, and 36, and 400 mg twice daily on Days 3‐14 and Days 21‐35.

Electrochemical Biosensors for Cancer Biomarker Detection: Basic Concept, Design Strategy and Cutting‐Edge Development

Electrochemical Science Advances, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer is a result of uncontrolled cell growth with the potential to damage or spread to another part of the body. It is the deadliest disease in the world; therefore, rapid and sensitive detection is essential to fight it. In the past few decades, many diagnosis tools have been developed to detect cancer and monitor therapy progress.

Targeting the Tumor Microbiota in Cancer Therapy Basing on Nanomaterials

Exploration, EarlyView.
Intra‐tumoral microbiota, which is a potential component of the tumor microenvironment, has been emerging as a key participant and driving factor in cancer. This article reviews the latest progress in this field, including the microbial community within tumors and its pro‐cancer mechanisms, as well as the anti‐tumor strategies targeting intra‐tumoral ...
