Discovery of small molecules promoting cardiomyocyte proliferation is important for heart regeneration and related heart disease. Here, we describe a protocol to isolate neonatal rat and mouse cardiomyocytes, infect cardiomyocytes with Tnnt2-mAG-hGeminin (1/110) or Tnnt2-Cre adenovirus, and identify small molecules that promote cardiomyocyte proliferation by high-content microscopy. This protocol can be modified to investigate other pro-proliferation factors in cardiomyocytes and other cell types. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Du et al. (2022)..

The calculation of the highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) gap for chemical molecules is computationally intensive using quantum mechanics (QM) methods, while experimental determination is often costly and time-consuming. Machine Learning (ML) offers a cost-effective and rapid alternative, enabling efficient predictions of HOMO-LUMO gap values across large data sets without the need for extensive QM computations or experiments. ML models facilitate the screening of diverse molecules, providing valuable insights into complex chemical spaces and integrating seamlessly into high-throughput workflows to prioritize candidates for experimental validation.

Narrow electrochemical windows and high reactivity of aqueous solutions remain critical bottlenecks for the practical application of aqueous batteries. However, the mechanisms for tuning microscopic reactivity of HO molecules in aqueous electrolytes remain elusive. This study employs six ether molecules with distinct structures and solvation powers to regulate the microstructure of aqueous solutions.

Motivation: The stability of protein interfaces influences protein dynamics and unfolding cooperativity. Although in some cases the dynamics of proteins can be deduced from their topology, much of the stability of an interface is related to the complementarity of the interacting parts. It is also important to note that proteins that display non-cooperative unfolding cannot be rationally stabilized unless the regions that unfold first are known.

DNA-encoded libraries (DELs) are used throughout small-molecule drug discovery to identify new lead compounds for protein targets. DEL hits are traditionally evaluated via off-DNA resynthesis and subsequent biological testing. This approach can be time- and resource-intensive, limiting the number of putative hits selected for follow-up.
