    Abstract Vibrotactile devices are commonly used in applications for sensory substitution or to provide feedback in virtual reality. An important aspect of vibrotactile perception is spatial acuity, which determines the resolutions of vibrotactile displays on the skin. However, the complex vibration characteristics of vibrotactile actuators make it challenging for researchers to reference and compare previous study results. This is because the effects of typical characteristics, such as intensity and frequency, are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the effects of intensity and frequency on vibrotactile spatial acuity. Using Linear Resonant Actuators (LRAs), we conducted relative point localization experiments to measure spatial acuity under different conditions. In the first experiment, we found that intensity had a significant effect on spatial acuity, with higher intensity leading to better acuity. In the second experiment, using a carefully designed intensity calibration procedure, we did not find a significant effect of frequency on spatial acuity. These findings provide a better understanding of vibrotactile spatial acuity, allow for comparisons to previous research, and provide insights into the design of future tactile devices.

    Abstract Opinion statement: Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is one of the more common subtypes of soft tissue sarcomas (STS), accounting for about 20% of cases. Differences in anatomical location, risk of recurrence and histomorphological variants contribute to the substantial clinical heterogeneity in survival outcomes and therapy responses observed in patients. There is therefore a need to move away from the current one-size-fits-all treatment approach towards a personalised strategy tailored for individual patients. Over the past decade, tissue profiling studies have revealed key genomic features and an additional layer of molecular heterogeneity among patients, with potential utility for optimal risk stratification and biomarker-matched therapies. Furthermore, recent studies investigating intratumour heterogeneity and tumour evolution patterns in LMS suggest some key features that may need to be taken into consideration when designing treatment strategies and clinical trials. Moving forward, national and international collaborative efforts to aggregate expertise, data, resources and tools are needed to achieve a step change in improving patient survival outcomes in this disease of unmet need.

    Abstract Opinion statement: Advances in proteomic and metabolomic technologies have accelerated our understanding of multiple aspects of cancer biology across distinct tumour types. Here we review the current state-of-the-art in the use of proteomics and metabolomics in soft tissue sarcomas. We highlight the utility of these Omics-based methodologies to identify new drug targets, synthetic lethal interactions, candidate therapeutics and novel biomarkers to facilitate patient stratification. Due to the unbiased and global nature of these profiling methods to assess the levels of protein expression, post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and glycosylation as well as key metabolites, many of these findings have broad applications not just in specific histotypes but across multiple STS subtypes. Specific examples of proteomic and metabolomic findings that have led to the development of early phase clinical trials of investigational agents will be discussed. While promising, the use of these technologies in the study of sarcoma is still limited, and there is a need for further research in this area. In particular, it would be important to integrate these approaches with other Omics strategies such as genomics and epigenomics as well as implement these tools alongside clinical trials in order to maximize the impact of these tools on our biological understanding and treatment of this group of rare diseases of unmet need.

    Abstract Desmoplastic small round cell tumour (DSRCT) is an ultra-rare soft tissue sarcoma that is characterised by aggressive disease and dismal patient outcomes. Despite multi-modal therapy, prognosis remains poor and there are currently no effective targeted therapies available for patients with this disease. Advances in comprehensive molecular profiling approaches including next generation sequencing and proteomics hold the promise of identifying new therapeutic targets and biomarkers. In this review, we provide an overview of the current status of molecular profiling studies in DSRCT patient specimens and cell lines, highlighting the key genomic, epigenetic and proteomic findings that have contributed to our biological knowledge base of this recalcitrant disease. In-depth analysis of these molecular profiles has led to the identification of promising novel and repurposed candidate therapies that are suitable for translation into clinical trials. We further provide a perspective on how future integrated studies including proteogenomics could further enrich our understanding of this ultra-rare entity and deliver progress that will ultimately impact the outcomes of patients with DSRCT.

    Abstract The continuing emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants has highlighted the need to identify additional points for viral inhibition. Ribosome inactivating proteins (RIPs), such as MAP30 and Momordin which are derived from bitter melon (Momordica charantia), have been found to inhibit a broad range of viruses. MAP30 has been shown to potently inhibit HIV-1 with minimal cytotoxicity. Here we show that MAP30 and Momordin potently inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication in A549 human lung cells (IC50 ~ 0.2 μM) with little concomitant cytotoxicity (CC50 ~ 2 μM). Both viral inhibition and cytotoxicity remain unaltered by appending a C-terminal Tat cell-penetration peptide to either protein. Mutation of tyrosine 70, a key residue in the active site of MAP30, to alanine completely abrogates both viral inhibition and cytotoxicity, indicating the involvement of its RNA N-glycosylase activity. Mutation of lysine 171 and lysine 215, residues corresponding to those in Ricin which when mutated prevented ribosome binding and inactivation, to alanine in MAP30 decreased cytotoxicity (CC50 ~ 10 μM) but also the viral inhibition (IC50 ~ 1 μM). Unlike with HIV-1, neither Dexamethasone nor Indomethacin exhibited synergy with MAP30 in the inhibition of SARS-CoV-2. From a structural comparison of the two proteins, one can explain their similar activities despite differences in both their active-sites and ribosome-binding regions. We also note points on the viral genome for potential inhibition by these proteins.

    Areas covered: In this article, we outline the drug profile of amivantamab compared with EGFR kinase inhibitors under evaluation in
    Expert opinion: Unlike small molecule EGFR kinase inhibitors, amivantamab has an extracellular mode of action and dual activity against EGFR and MET. It remains to be determined what role MET inhibition plays in toxicity and efficacy and whether dual target inhibition can delay the onset of drug resistance in these cancers. Due to its large molecular size, amivantamab is expected to have poor activity to treat brain metastases. Building on the clinical data so far, future trials that will evaluate combination treatments with brain-penetrant EGFR kinase inhibitors will be critical to move the drug toward a first-line treatment.
