Proteomic and metabolomic analyses of the human adult myocardium reveal ventricle-specific regulation in end-stage cardiomyopathies by Hunter, B, Li, M, Parker, BL, Koay, YC, Harney, DJ, Pearson, E, Cao, J, Chen, GT, Guneratne, O, Smyth, GK, Larance, M, O’Sullivan, JF, Lal, S

“…Inter-ventricular significance of these metabolic pathways was then found to be diminished within end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy and ischaemic cardiomyopathy, while heart failure-associated pathways were increased in the left ventricle relative to the right within ischaemic cardiomyopathy, such as fluid sheer-stress, increased glutamine-glutamate ratio, and down-regulation of contractile proteins, indicating a left ventricular pathological bias.…”

Large scale paired antibody language models by Kenlay, H, Dreyer, FA, Kovaltsuk, A, Miketa, D, Pires, D, Deane, CM

“…With the advent of next-generation sequencing, billions of antibody sequences have been collected in recent years, though their application in the design of better therapeutics has been constrained by the sheer volume and complexity of the data. To address this challenge, we present IgBert and IgT5, the best performing antibody-specific language models developed to date which can consistently handle both paired and unpaired variable region sequences as input. …”
