Comparison of the Neutralization Power of Sotrovimab Against SARS-CoV-2 Variants: Development of a Rapid Computational Method

Comparison of the Neutralization Power of Sotrovimab Against SARS-CoV-2 Variants: Development of a Rapid Computational Method

This is mainly due to the virus’ relatively high mutational rate, with specific mutations occurring on the spike protein affecting its immunogenicity [1,2]. The battle against this virus covers several aspects ranging from prevention, mitigation, and treatment. One promising approach that is still developing with proven efficiency consists of using anti–SARS-Co V-2 monoclonal neutralizing antibodies (NAbs).

The Effect of Web-Based Culinary Medicine to Enhance Protein Intake on Muscle Quality in Older Adults: Randomized Controlled Trial

The Effect of Web-Based Culinary Medicine to Enhance Protein Intake on Muscle Quality in Older Adults: Randomized Controlled Trial

The Society for Sarcopenia, Cachexia, and Wasting Disease provided protein recommendations for treating and preventing sarcopenia at a minimum of 1.0 to 1.5 g/kg body weight per day with exercise [22]. The protein quality is also critical in age-related SMM anabolism. Research on how protein-rich whole foods (eg, lean red meat) can enhance MPS over supplementation in older adults is rising [23].

Cognitive Dysfunction and Affective Mood Disorder Screening in Patients With Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Protocol for a Prospective Case-Control Study

Cognitive Dysfunction and Affective Mood Disorder Screening in Patients With Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Protocol for a Prospective Case-Control Study

S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100 B) is a protein that is found in a variety of tissues, including the brain, where it has been implicated in several neurobiological processes, including synaptic plasticity, neurogenesis, and neuroinflammation. High serum S100 B levels have been associated with a variety of neurological disorders, including traumatic brain injury, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Mutations of SARS-CoV-2 Structural Proteins in the Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta Variants: Bioinformatics Analysis

Mutations of SARS-CoV-2 Structural Proteins in the Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta Variants: Bioinformatics Analysis

In addition to the S and N proteins, all of these reported Vo Cs comprise the other main structural proteins of SARS-Co V-2, membrane protein (M) and envelope protein (E). Each protein of the virus plays a vital role and also takes part in the replication cycle. The S protein is required for the attachment and amalgamation of the virus to host cell surface receptors, which enables the virus to enter the host cell [19].

Fibroblast Activation Protein Overexpression in Gastrointestinal Tumors: Protocol for a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Fibroblast Activation Protein Overexpression in Gastrointestinal Tumors: Protocol for a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

To identify and characterize CAF subtypes, a number of markers have been identified, such as desmin, fibroblast activation protein (FAP), fibroblast-specific protein, podoplanin, α-SMA, and vimentin [8,9]. FAP is a type II transmembrane serine protease, which shares a high-sequence identity with dipeptidyl peptidase 4 [10]. In most adult tissues, expression of FAP is low to undetectable. FAP expression becomes highly upregulated in multiple types of cancer, and it is predominantly observed in CAFs [11].

Correlation Between Serum and Urine Biomarkers and the Intensity of Acute Radiation Cystitis in Patients Treated With Radiation Therapy for Localized Prostate Cancer: Protocol for the Radiotoxicity Bladder Biomarkers (RABBIO) Study

Correlation Between Serum and Urine Biomarkers and the Intensity of Acute Radiation Cystitis in Patients Treated With Radiation Therapy for Localized Prostate Cancer: Protocol for the Radiotoxicity Bladder Biomarkers (RABBIO) Study

Overall, 6 m L of blood and 5 m L of urine per patient per visit will be used for the analysis of the following 33 biomarkers: inflammatory biomarkers (including macrophage migration inhibitory factor; cytokines IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-4, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-10, IL-13, and IL-17α; macrophagic inflammatory protein 1α; TNF-α; vascular cell adhesion molecule 1; intercellular adhesion molecule 1; chemotactic cytokines including monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 and 3 and regulated on activation, normal T-expressed, and

Prediction of Antibody-Antigen Binding via Machine Learning: Development of Data Sets and Evaluation of Methods

Prediction of Antibody-Antigen Binding via Machine Learning: Development of Data Sets and Evaluation of Methods

The direct prediction of antibody-antigen interactions from protein sequences remains an open problem. Machine learning–based tools, such as m CSM-AB [4] and ADAPT (Assisted Design of Antibody and Protein Therapeutics) [5], have had some success in predicting antibody interactions in other contexts. m CSM-AB is a web server for predicting changes in antibody-antigen affinity upon mutation, using graph-based signatures.

Relationship Between Protein Intake in Each Traditional Meal and Physical Activity: Cross-sectional Study

Relationship Between Protein Intake in Each Traditional Meal and Physical Activity: Cross-sectional Study

On the other hand, although total physical activity was associated with breakfast protein intake, it showed the strongest positive relationship with lunch protein intake. Walking had a positive relationship with dinner protein intake.

In Silico Comparative Analysis of the Functional, Structural, and Evolutionary Properties of SARS-CoV-2 Variant Spike Proteins

In Silico Comparative Analysis of the Functional, Structural, and Evolutionary Properties of SARS-CoV-2 Variant Spike Proteins

The isoelectric point (p I) of a protein is crucial in determining the physicochemical properties of the protein [5]. The exposure of charged amino acids on the protein surface to solvents, hydration, and dehydration also influences the p I of a protein [6,7].

A Modern Flexitarian Dietary Intervention Incorporating Web-Based Nutrition Education in Healthy Young Adults: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

They provide high-quality protein, essential fatty acids, and micronutrients that are limited in concentration or bioavailability in exclusively plant-based diets, notably including vitamin B12, iron, zinc, and long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (LCn3) [3]. However, production of meat is resource-intensive and widely censured for its environmental impacts [4]. As a consequence, the trend of meat-rich dietary patterns in Western consumers may not be sustainable.
