Laminin-Derived Peptides Bind Neuropilin-1 at the VEGF-A165 Binding Pocket

The paper investigates whether laminin-derived peptides bind to the VEGF-A165 binding pocket of NRP-1 using computational and experimental methods, finding that peptide 1 has the highest binding occupancy.

Chlorotoxin does not target matrix metalloproteinase-2in glioblastoma

This study investigates whether chlorotoxin (Ctx) and its fragments inhibit MMP-2 activity in glioblastoma, finding no inhibition of enzymatic activity but reduced cellular migration.

Negative Charges, Not Necessary Phosphorylation, are Required for Ligand Recognition by 14-3-3 Proteins

This study shows that negative charges, not phosphorylation, are required for 14-3-3ε binding, with at least one negative charge needed and two for high affinity.

In Silico Transcriptome-based Screens Identify Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Inhibitors as Therapeutics for Noise-induced Hearing Loss

This paper identifies EGFR inhibitors as potential therapeutics for noise-induced hearing loss using in silico transcriptome-based drug screening and experimental validation in zebrafish and mouse models.
