Understanding the conformational dynamics which affects ligand binding by Neuraminidases is needed to improve the in silico selection of novel drug candidates targeting these pathogenicity factors and to adequately estimate the efficacy of potential drugs. Conventional molecular dynamics (MD) is a powerful tool to study conformational sampling, drug-target recognition and binding, but requires significant computational effort to reach timescales relevant for biology. In this work the advances in a computer power and specialized architectures were evaluated at simulating long MD trajectories of the structural behavior of Neuraminidases. We conclude that modern GPU accelerators enable calculations at the timescales that would previously have been intractable, providing routine access to microsecond-long trajectories in a daily laboratory practice. This opens an opportunity to move away from the "static" affinity-driven strategies in drug design towards a deeper understanding of ligand-specific conformational adaptation of target sites in protein structures, leading to a better selection of efficient drug candidates in silico. However, the performance of modern GPUs is yet far behind the deeply-specialized supercomputers co-designed for MD. Further development of affordable specialized architectures is needed to move towards the much-desired millisecond timescale to simulate large proteins at a daily routine. © The Authors 2018.

Ultrasound neuromodulation, in which local and deep brain areas are stimulated, holds promise for clinical applications. However, the mechanisms of action underlying the stimulation effects are still unknown. In vitro experiments are helpful for investigating the stimulation mechanisms because they allow easy control of extracellular conditions. Compared with closed-loop systems, conventional open-loop systems do not permit monitoring of neural activity, and thus can lead to excessive neural stimulation. In this study, we developed a piezoelectric micromachined ultrasound transducer (PMUT) combined with monitoring microelectrodes. To examine the potential of our device as a neuromodulation tool, we measured the cellular responses to generated ultrasound stimulation. Subsequently, we constructed a closed-loop system that combined our PMUT with monitoring electrodes, and applied event-related ultrasound stimulation to brain slices in vitro. We discuss future applications of a closed-loop ultrasound stimulation system. © 2024 by SCITEPRESS–Science and Technology Publications, Lda.

High-speed observations of ultrasonic ejection of a viscoelastic, shear-thinning, polymer solution, 1 wt% PEO dissolved in water, for the purpose of electrospinning initiation are presented. A focused ultrasound source at 2.68 MHz is used for the ejection. A high-voltage electric field is applied between the solution and a conducting plate above. With a suitable ultrasonic ejection of the solution, electrospinning is initiatied as the electric field pulls a thinning jet from the solution, eventually producing a *** ultrasonic pulse regimes are investigated for the ejection: short (≤ 100 cycles) but high-amplitude (≈ 4.4 MPa), and long (≥ 5000 cycles) but low-amplitude (≈ 0.8 MPa) pulsing. Three different types of ejections leading to the electric field being able to pull a jet from the solution are observed. Most notably, we observed an unstable drop-chain formation which lead to the jetting of liquid from the drop-chain, which was further pulled by the electric field into a thinning jet.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and variants (SNVs) are often found in regulatory regions of human genome. Nucleotide substitutions in promoter and enhancer regions may affect transcription factor (TF) binding and alter gene expression regulation. Nowadays binding patterns are known for hundreds of human TFs. Thus one can assess possible functional effects of allele variations or mutations in TF binding sites using sequence analysis. We present PERFECTOS-APE, the software to PrEdict Regulatory Functional Effect of SNPs by Approximate P-value Estimation. Using a predefined collection of position weight matrices (PWMs) representing TF binding patterns, PERFECTOS-APE identifies transcription factors whose binding sites can be significantly affected by given nucleotide substitutions. PERFECTOS-APE supports both classic PWMs under the position independency assumption, and dinucleotide PWMs accounting for the dinucleotide composition and correlations between nucleotides in adjacent positions within binding sites. PERFECTOS-APE uses dynamic programming to calculate PWM score distribution and convert the scores to P-values with an optional binary search mode using a precomputed P-value list to speed-up the computations. Software is written in Java and is freely available as standalone program and online tool: http://***/perfectosape/. We have tested our algorithm on several disease associated SNVs as well as on a set of cancer somatic mutations occurring in intronic regions of the human genome.

Abstract: Urban dust particles are a major pathogenic factor in respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and also increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases, and lung cancer. Nanoparticles (NPs) of various origins are an important component of urban dust, but their effects on the human body are barely studied. In the present work, the effect of urban dust NPs on innate immune cells, neutrophils and macrophages was investigated in vitro. The study used urban dust NPs isolated from urban dust samples using the coiled tube field-flow fractionation technique. Urban dust NPs were shown to induce a significant increase in the production of reactive oxygen species in human neutrophils. Preincubation of neutrophils with dust NPs resulted in a fourfold increase in production of reactive oxygen species in response to the chemoattractant peptide N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), which indicates an effect of neutrophil priming with nanoparticles. On macrophages differentiated from the monocytic line THP-1, urban dust NPs stimulated the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor, and interleukin-6. The inflammatory activation of neutrophils and macrophages was reduced by antibiotic polymyxin B, which is able to bind bacterial wall lipopolysaccharide. The results suggest that the pro-inflammatory effect of urban dust NPs on neutrophils and macrophages is, at least in part, due to the presence of bacterial wall lipopolysaccharide. © Allerton Press, Inc. 2024.

We studied the distribution of 1-7 bp words in a dataset that includes 139 complete eukaryotic genomes, 33 masked eukaryotic genomes and coding regions from 35 genomes. We tested different statistical models to determine over- and under-represented words. The method described by Karlin et al. has the strongest predictive power compared to other methods. Using this method we identified over- and under-represented words consistent within a large array of taxonomic groups. Some of those words have not yet been described as exclusive. For example, CGCG is over-represented in CG-deficient organisms. We also describe exceptions for widely known exclusive words, such as CG and TA. © 2010 Imperial College Press.

It is known that the mechanisms of brain damage after a stroke are regulated by interaction within several cell types, primarily neurons, astrocytes, the endothelium, and microglia. Ischemic exposure disrupts the balance in the brain cellular content;thus, in the lesion, cells die by necrosis, while delayed induction of apoptosis occurs in the tissue surrounding the ischemic zone. Named cells die in the lesion and their ratio determines the clinical outcome of the disease. Thus, the detection of deaths within various cell types of the neurovascular unit is an important part of fundamental studies of the mechanisms of brain damage and preclinical studies of potential neuroprotective drugs. For this reason, we conducted a comparative study of the two most often used methods: immunohistochemical staining of brain sections, which allows to determine the number and localization of specific cells in the tissue among other types of cells, and immunoblotting, which detects specific proteins in the tissue homogenate. We found that, depending on the cell type, changes in their number and composition after a stroke can be localized in a limited part of the tissue or cover the entire hemisphere, which imposes restrictions on the use of any method of determining the number of cells in brain tissue. In general, the most preferable is the use of immunohistochemistry;however, with certain limitations, immunoblotting can be used to determine the proportion of astroglia and microglia. © 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.

Understanding the geometric, topologic, and mechanical properties of cells and their interactions is critical for studying tissue pattern formation and organ development. Computational model and tools for simulating cell pattern formation have broad implications in studying embryogenesis, blood-vessel development, tissue regeneration, and tumor growth. Although a number of cell modeling methods exist, they do not simultaneously account for detailed cellular shapes as well as dynamic changes in cell geometry and topology. Here we describe a dynamic finite element cell model (dFEMC) for studying populations of cells and tissue development. By incorporating details of cell shape, cell growth and shrinkage, cell birth and death, cell division and fusion, our method can model realistically a variety problems of cell pattern formation. We give two examples of applying our method to the study of cell fusion and cell apoptosis. The dFEMC model developed here provides a general computational framework for studying dynamics pattern formation of tissue.
