One-shot yield-cost relations in general quantum resource theories by Takagi, Ryuji, Regula, Bartosz, Wilde, Mark M.

“…Although it is well known that the amount of resources that can be asymptotically distilled from a quantum state or channel does not exceed the resource cost needed to produce it, the corresponding relation in the non-asymptotic regime hitherto has not been well understood. Here, we establish a quantitative relation between the one-shot distillable resource yield and dilution cost in terms of transformation errors involved in these processes. …”

Modulating T-cell activation with antisense oligoucleotides targeting lymphocyte cytosolic protein 2 by Iyer, Vaishnavi Srinivasan, Boddul, Sanjaykumar V., Johnsson, Anna-Karin, Raposo, Bruno, Sharma, Ravi K., Shen, Yunbing, Kasza, Zsolt, Lim, Kah Wai, Chemin, Karine, Nilsson, Gunnar, Malmström, Vivianne, Phan, Anh Tuân, Wermeling, Fredrik

“…Despite the critical role of LCP2 in T-cell activation and the need for developing drugs that modify T-cell activation, no LCP2 inhibitors have been developed. This can be explained by the "undruggable" nature of LCP2, lacking a structure permissive to standard small molecule inhibitor modalities. …”
