    Abstract Animals can quickly adapt learned movements in response to external perturbations. Motor adaptation is likely influenced by an animal's existing movement repertoire, but the nature of this influence is unclear. Long-term learning causes lasting changes in neural connectivity which determine the activity patterns that can be produced. Here, we sought to understand how a neural population's activity repertoire, acquired through long-term learning, affects short-term adaptation by modeling motor cortical neural population dynamics during

    Abstract The RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp)-binding integrins αvβ6 and αvβ8 are clinically validated cancer and fibrosis targets of considerable therapeutic importance. Compounds that can discriminate between the two closely related integrin proteins and other RGD integrins, stabilize specific conformational states, and have sufficient stability enabling tissue restricted administration could have considerable therapeutic utility. Existing small molecules and antibody inhibitors do not have all of these properties, and hence there is a need for new approaches. Here we describe a method for computationally designing hyperstable RGD-containing miniproteins that are highly selective for a single RGD integrin heterodimer and conformational state, and use this strategy to design inhibitors of αvβ6 and αvβ8 with high selectivity. The αvβ6 and αvβ8 inhibitors have picomolar affinities for their targets, and >1000-fold selectivity over other RGD integrins. CryoEM structures are within 0.6-0.7Å root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) to the computational design models; the designed αvβ6 inhibitor and native ligand stabilize the open conformation in contrast to the therapeutic anti-αvβ6 antibody BG00011 that stabilizes the bent-closed conformation and caused on-target toxicity in patients with lung fibrosis, and the αvβ8 inhibitor maintains the constitutively fixed extended-closed αvβ8 conformation. In a mouse model of bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis, the αvβ6 inhibitor potently reduced fibrotic burden and improved overall lung mechanics when delivered via oropharyngeal administration mimicking inhalation, demonstrating the therapeutic potential of

    Abstract Background: Glycine is a dietary non-essential amino acid that is low in obesity and increases following bariatric surgery. However, the exact mechanism responsible remains unclear and it is unknown whether hypoglycinemia is a cause or consequence of insulin resistance.
    Objective: Using multiple isotopically labeled tracers, we aimed to determine the underlying kinetic changes responsible for hypoglycinemia in obesity by: 1) Comparing glycine kinetics between participants with morbid obesity (BMI ≥ 32.5 kg/m
    Methods: [1,2-
    Results: Compared to controls, participants with morbid obesity had significantly lower plasma glycine concentrations at 163 (153-171) vs. 201 (172-227) µmol/L and significantly reduced
    Conclusion: Hypoglycinemia in participants with morbid obesity was associated with impaired

    Methods: We performed a multicenter cohort study including 14,134 cancer patients. The prognostic impact for each baseline characteristic was estimated by calculating Harrell's C-index. The optimal parameters reflecting the nutritional and inflammatory impact on patients' overall survival were selected to develop the fat-age-inflammation (FAIN) index. The associations of the FAIN with the nutritional status, physical performance, quality of life, short-term outcomes and mortality of patients were comprehensively evaluated. Independent external validation was performed to further assess the prognostic value of the FAIN.
    Results: The study enrolled 7,468 men and 6,666 women with a median age of 57 years and a median follow-up of 42 months. The FAIN index was defined as: (triceps skinfold thickness + albumin) / [age + 5 × (neutrophil count/lymphocyte count)]. There were significant associations of the FAIN with the nutritional status, physical performance, quality of life and short-term outcomes. The FAIN also showed better discrimination performance than the Nutritional Risk Index, the Prognostic Nutritional Index and the Controlling Nutritional Status index (all
    Conclusions: This study created and assessed the prognostic FAIN index, which might act as a feasible option to monitor the nutritional status and help develop intervention strategies to optimize the survival outcomes of cancer patients.

    Abstract General approaches for designing sequence-specific peptide-binding proteins would have wide utility in proteomics and synthetic biology. However, designing peptide-binding proteins is challenging, as most peptides do not have defined structures in isolation, and hydrogen bonds must be made to the buried polar groups in the peptide backbone

    Abstract With recent advances in machine learning, researchers are now able to solve traditional problems with new solutions. In the area of digital watermarking, deep-learning-based watermarking technique is being extensively studied. Most existing approaches adopt a similar encoder-driven scheme which we name END (Encoder-NoiseLayer-Decoder) architecture. In this paper, we revamp the architecture and creatively design a decoder-driven watermarking network dubbed De-END which greatly outperforms the existing END-based methods. The motivation for designing De-END originated from the potential drawback we discovered in END architecture: The encoder may embed redundant features that are not necessary for decoding, limiting the performance of the whole network. We conducted a detailed analysis and found that such limitations are caused by unsatisfactory coupling between the encoder and decoder in END. De-END addresses such drawbacks by adopting a Decoder-Encoder-Noiselayer-Decoder architecture. In De-END, the host image is firstly processed by the decoder to generate a latent feature map instead of being directly fed into the encoder. This latent feature map is concatenated to the original watermark message and then processed by the encoder. This change in design is crucial as it makes the feature of encoder and decoder directly shared thus the encoder and decoder are better coupled. We conducted extensive experiments and the results show that this framework outperforms the existing state-of-the-art (SOTA) END-based deep learning watermarking both in visual quality and robustness. On the premise of the same decoder structure, the visual quality (measured by PSNR) of De-END improves by 1.6dB (45.16dB to 46.84dB), and extraction accuracy after JPEG compression (QF=50) distortion outperforms more than 4% (94.9% to 99.1%).

    Abstract To extract information from free-text in clinical records due to the patient's protected health information PHI in the records pre-processing of de-identification is required. Therefore we aimed to identify PHI list and fine-tune the deep learning BERT model for developing de-identification model. The result of fine-tuning the model is strict F1 score of 0.924. Due to the convinced score the model can be used for the development of a de-identification model.
