N-body Information Theory (NbIT) Analysis of Rigid-Body Dynamics in Intracellular Loop 2 of the 5-HT2A Receptor [PDF]
Rigid-body motions of protein secondary structure are often implicated in mecha-nisms of protein function. In GPCRs, evidence suggests that intracellular loop 2 (IL2) contains a segment characterized as a helix when the activated receptor trig-gers downstream signaling.

Utilizing AI and Social Media Analytics to Discover Adverse Side Effects of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists [PDF]
Adverse side effects (ASEs) of drugs, revealed after FDA approval, pose a threat to patient safety. To promptly detect overlooked ASEs, we developed a digital health methodology capable of analyzing massive public data from social media, published clinical research, manufacturers' reports, and ChatGPT.

Discrimination vs. Generation: The Machine Learning Dichotomy for Dopaminergic Hit Discovery [PDF]
Virtual screening plays a pivotal role in early drug discovery, traditionally dominated by physics-based methods. While these approaches offer detailed insights, they are often hindered by high computational costs, limited sampling, and forcefield inaccuracies.

P2X7 receptor in epilepsy; role in pathophysiology and potential targeting for seizure control. [PDF]
The P2X7 receptor is an ATP-gated non-selective cation-permeable ionotropic receptor selectively expressed in neurons and glia in the brain. Activation of the P2X7 receptor has been found to modulate neuronal excitability in the hippocampus and it has ...

Integrating computational detection and experimental validation for rapid GFRAL-specific antibody discovery [PDF]
The identification and validation of therapeutic antibodies is critical for developing effective treatments for many diseases. We present a computational approach for identifying antibodies targeting GFRAL-specific receptors, receptors implicated in appetite regulation. Using humanized Trianni mice, we conducted a longitudinal study with repeated blood
