Biomarkers in Diagnostics and Therapeutics: Advancements in Proteins and Peptides Across Preclinical and Clinical Studies
Biomarkers play a crucial role in the understanding and management of diseases, enabling clinicians and researchers to diagnose conditions earlier, predict disease outcomes, and develop personalized treatment strategies. Proteins and peptides, as key molecular entities, hold substantial promise in revolutionizing biomarker discovery, especially in the context of complex diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and autoimmune diseases. This special issue will aim to present a broad spectrum of studies ranging from retrospective and prospective clinical... see more
Protein Folding, Aggregation and Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation
Protein folding, misfolding and aggregation remain one of the main problems of interdisciplinary science not only because many questions are still open, but also because they are important from the point of view of practical application. Protein aggregation and formation of fibrillar structures, for example, is a hallmark of a large group of neurodegenerative human diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease, type 2 diabetes, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Parkinson’s disease among many others. Thanks to RNA vaccines... see more
Advancements in Proteomic and Peptidomic Approaches in Cancer Immunotherapy: Unveiling the Immune Microenvironment
The scope of this thematic issue centers on the integration of proteomic and peptidomic technologies into the field of cancer immunotherapy, with a particular emphasis on exploring the tumor immune microenvironment. This issue aims to gather contributions that illustrate the application of these advanced methodologies in unveiling the complex interplay between cancer cells and the immune system. By doing so, it seeks to facilitate the identification of new therapeutic targets and biomarkers, which could significantly... see more
Artificial Intelligence for Protein Research
Protein research, essential for understanding biological processes and creating therapeutics, faces challenges due to the intricate nature of protein structures and functions. Traditional methods are limited in exploring the vast protein sequence space efficiently. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) offer promising solutions by improving predictions and speeding up protein discovery and design. By integrating AI and ML into protein research, advancements can be made in predicting structures, designing tailored proteins, and optimizing production... see more
Protein/protein and RNA/protein interactions are essential for molecular regulations
Protein-protein and RNA-protein interactions are fundamental to the intricate regulatory mechanisms that govern various cellular processes, playing a crucial role in maintaining the delicate balance and coordination within the complex molecular landscape. Proteins, the workhorses of the cell, engage in a myriad of interactions, both with other proteins and with RNA molecules, to orchestrate an array of biological functions, from signal transduction and gene expression to cellular homeostasis and disease pathogenesis. Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) facilitate... see more
Nutrition and Metabolism in Musculoskeletal Diseases
The musculoskeletal system consists mainly of cartilage, bone, muscles, tendons, connective tissue and ligaments. Balanced metabolism is of vital importance for the homeostasis of the musculoskeletal system. A series of musculoskeletal diseases (for example, sarcopenia, osteoporosis) are resulted from the dysregulated metabolism of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, metabolic diseases (such as diabetes, obesity) are prevalent and connected with the changes in the musculoskeletal system. More research are called for to expand our knowledge on the... see more
