Limitations of analytical dose calculations for small field proton radiosurgery

open access: yesPhysics in Medicine & Biology, 2016
Abstract The purpose of the work was to evaluate the dosimetric uncertainties of an analytical dose calculation engine and the impact on treatment plans using small fields in intracranial proton stereotactic radiosurgery (PSRS) for a gantry based double scattering system.

Implementing beam shape variations in a deep learning based proton dose calculation algorithm

open access: yes, 2022
In this report, a transformer based deep learning proton dose calculation algorithm called Dose Transformer Algorithm (DoTA) is described. This model learns to predict proton dose distributions by being trained with Monte Carlo generated data.

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Proton dose deposition matrix prediction using multi-source feature driven deep learning approach

open access: yesMachine Learning: Science and Technology
Proton dose deposition results are influenced by various factors, such as irradiation angle, beamlet energy and other parameters. The calculation of the proton dose deposition matrix (DDM) can be highly complex but is crucial in intensity-modulated ...

How structural disorder and polyelectrolyte properties of prothymosin α enable its large interactome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, complexes of the fully disordered and highly negatively charged prothymosin α are collected, described, and discussed. Linked to its poly‐electrostatic character, prothymosin α engages a large interactome through multiple different binding modes ranging from fully disordered complexes to short linear motif (SLiM)‐driven interactions ...

Reprogramming tumor cells with LCOR mRNA nanotherapy to enhance immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LCOR (Ligand‐dependent corepressor) mRNA encapsulated in polymeric nanoparticles restores LCOR activity in tumor cells, constraining aggressive tumor cell states and increasing tumor immunogenicity. This reprogramming makes tumor cells more vulnerable to T‐cell attack and enhances their response to immune‐checkpoint immunotherapy.
