Chemoproteomic discovery of a brain‐penetrant, covalent NLRP3 inhibitor that binds a novel allosteric pocket

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
NLRP3 is a promising inflammatory target, but existing inhibitors lack diversity and brain penetrance, and none are approved. Using chemoproteomics, we discovered a novel series that binds to Cys463 in a previously uncharacterized pocket. Compounds showed nanomolar potency, brain exposure, and in vivo suppression of IL‐1β, supporting neuroinflammatory ...

Advances in 4D Representation: Geometry, Motion, and Interaction

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We survey 4D representation through three key pillars — geometry, motion, and interaction — offering a selective, representation‐centric perspective to guide researchers in choosing and customizing the right 4D representation for their tasks. Abstract We present a survey on 4D generation and reconstruction, a fast‐evolving subfield of computer graphics
