Article Abstract

Antimicrobial resistance is responsible for an alarming number of deaths, estimated at 5 million per year. To combat priority pathogens, like , the development of novel therapies is of utmost importance. Understanding the molecular alterations induced by medications is critical for the design of multi-targeting treatments capable of eradicating the infection and mitigating its pathogenicity. However, the application of bulk omics approaches for unraveling drug molecular mechanisms of action is limited by their inability to discriminate between target-specific modifications and off-target effects. This study introduces a multi-omics method to overcome the existing limitation. For the first time, the Proteome Integral Solubility Alteration (PISA) assay is utilized in bacteria in the PISA-Express format to link proteome solubility with different and potentially immediate responses to drug treatment, enabling us the resolution to understand target-specific modifications and off-target effects. This study introduces a comprehensive method for understanding drug mechanisms and optimizing the development of multi-targeting antimicrobial therapies.

Osteoarthritis (OA), the prevalent debilitating joint disorder, is accelerated by dysregulated intercellular crosstalk, yet the role of fibroblast-like synoviocyte (FLS)-derived extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) in disease progression remains to be elucidated. Here, integrative analysis of clinical specimens, animal models, and publicly available datasets revealed significant alterations in exosomal pathways within OA synovium. Proteomic profiling revealed distinct molecular signatures in EVPs derived from inflammatory and senescent FLSs, reflecting the pathophysiological status of their parent cells.

Myasthenia gravis (MG) presents significant health and economic challenges. To identify novel biomarkers, we analyzed proteomic data from 52,704 UK Biobank individuals, focusing on 1463 baseline proteins with follow-up >10 years. Baseline and potential MG cases were 1:5 matched to controls by using propensity score matching.

Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal that exhibits strong carcinogenic properties and promotes breast cancer (BC) progression. Autophagic flux dysfunction is involved in Cd-induced BC progression, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, it is observed that impaired autophagic flux and metabolic reprogramming are notable features related to Cd-induced proliferation, migration, and invasion in BC cell lines, including T-47D and MCF-7 cells.

Current experimental and computational methods have limitations in accurately and efficiently classifying ion channels within vast protein spaces. Here we have developed a deep learning algorithm, GPT2 Ion Channel Classifier (GPT2-ICC), which effectively distinguishing ion channels from a test set containing approximately 239 times more non-ion-channel proteins. GPT2-ICC integrates representation learning with a large language model (LLM)-based classifier, enabling highly accurate identification of potential ion channels.

Background: Prostatic diseases, consisting of prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and prostate cancer (PCa), pose significant health challenges. While single-omics studies have provided valuable insights into the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in prostatic diseases, integrating multi-omics approaches is essential for uncovering disease mechanisms and identifying therapeutic targets.

Methods: A genome-wide meta-analysis was conducted for prostatic diseases using the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) data from FinnGen and UK Biobank.
