Genomics-based neoantigen discovery can be enhanced by proteomic evidence, but there remains a lack of consensus on the performance different quality control methods for variant peptide identification in proteogenomics. We propose to use difference between accurately predicted and observed retention times each as metric evaluate methods. To this end, we develop AutoRT, deep learning algorithm with high accuracy time prediction. Analysis three cancer data sets total 287 tumor samples using...

Osteolysis induced by chronic Gram-negative bacterial infection underlies many bone diseases such as osteomyelitis, septic arthritis, and periodontitis. Drugs that inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced osteolysis are critically needed for the prevention of destruction in infective diseases. In this study, we assessed effect puerarin, a natural isoflavone isolated from Pueraria lobata OHWI root, on LPS-induced osteoclastogenesis loss. Our vitro study showed puerarin significantly inhibited...

SUMMARY Flowering is an important developmental transition from the vegetative to reproductive phase in plants. The role of histone modifications regulation flowering time well documented; however, their Chinese cabbage remains unclear. In present study, we investigated a late‐bolting mutant, M1407 , which displayed phenotype after vernalization. MutMap, kompetitive allele‐specific PCR (KASP), and RNA interference (RNAi) analyses demonstrated that BrSWN encodes catalytic subunit Polycomb...

Lapatinib, a selective orally available inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ErbB2 tyrosine kinases, is promising agent for the treatment breast cancer. We examined effect lapatinib on development mammary tumors in MMTV-erbB2 transgenic mice, which express wild-type under control mouse tumor virus promoter spontaneously develop estrogen (ER)-negative ErbB2-positive by 14 months age. Mice were treated from age 3 to 15 with vehicle (n = 17) or (30 75 mg/kg body weight; n 16...

Abstract The oncogene erbB2 is overexpressed in 20% to 30% human breast cancers and most commonly estrogen receptor (ER)–negative cancers. Transgenic mice expressing develop ER-negative mammary tumors, mimicking carcinogenesis. Previously, we have shown that activator protein 1 (AP-1) regulates proliferation of cancer cells. We hypothesized blockade AP-1 mouse epithelial cells will suppress tumorigenesis induced by erbB2. Trigenic were generated crossing a bigenic pUHD-Tam67/MMTV-rtTA...

Abstract In pursuit of effective therapeutic agents for the estrogen receptor (ER)-negative breast cancer, we previously showed that bexarotene reduced mammary tumor development by 75% in ErbB2 mice. To further improve effectiveness cancer prevention, have now investigated effects a combinatorial therapy consisting two preventive drugs. On basis hypothesis, rexinoid LG100268 plus tamoxifen would more effectively prevent both ER-positive and ER-negative cancer. We treated p53-null gland mice...

Leaves are the main organ for photosynthesis, and variations in leaf color affect photosynthesis plant biomass formation. We created two similar whole-plant pale green mutants ( pem1 pem2 ) from double haploid (DH) Chinese cabbage line “FT” through ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis of seeds. Photosynthetic pigment contents net photosynthetic rates were significantly lower than wild-type “FT,” chloroplast thylakoid endomembrane system was poor. Genetic analysis showed that mutated...
