Article Abstract
Recent advancements in engineering Complex models (CIVMs) such as Blood-brain barrier (BBB) organoids offer promising platforms for preclinical drug testing. However, their application in drug development, and especially for the regulatory purposes of toxicity assessment, requires robust and reproducible techniques. Here, we developed an adapted set of orthogonal image-based tissue methods including hematoxylin and eosin staining (HE), immunohistochemistry (IHC), multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF), and Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MALDI-MSI) to validate CIVMs for drug toxicity assessments. We developed an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm to increase the throughput and the reliability of histomorphologic evaluations of apoptosis for toxicity studies. Our data highlight the potential to integrate advanced morphology-based readouts such as histological techniques and digital pathology algorithms for use on CIVMs, as part of a standard preclinical drug development assessment.

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the continuously evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus, has presented persistent global health challenges. As novel variants emerge, many with enhanced transmissibility and immune evasion capabilities, concerns have intensified regarding the efficacy of existing vaccines and therapeutics. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of COVID-19 vaccination, including the development and performance of monovalent and bivalent boosters, and examines their effectiveness against newly emerging variants of interest (VOIs) and variants under monitoring (VUMs), such as JN.

Major depression disorder (MDD) is a mental condition that significantly threatens both physical and psychological health. This study aimed to discern variances in plasma metabolic profiles between MDD sufferers and healthy counterparts. Additionally, we tracked the hospitalization journey of MDD patients to investigate the normalization of metabolic irregularities through conventional treatment in the form of self-control.

Traditional drug discovery methods like high-throughput screening and molecular docking are slow and costly. This study introduces a machine learning framework to predict bioactivity (pIC₅₀) and identify key molecular properties and structural features for targeting Trypanothione reductase (TR), Protein kinase C theta (PKC-θ), and Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) using data from the ChEMBL database. Molecular fingerprints, generated via PaDEL-Descriptor and RDKit, encoded structural features as binary vectors.
