ColabFold: making protein folding accessible to all

Milot Mirdita et al.

Summary: ColabFold combines fast homology search and optimized model utilization to offer accelerated prediction of protein structures and complexes, with a processing speed that is 40-60 times faster. It serves as a free and accessible platform for protein folding, capable of predicting close to 1,000 structures per day.

Myocarditis and inflammatory cardiomyopathy: current evidence and future directions

Carsten Tschoepe et al.

Summary: Inflammatory cardiomyopathy is a disease characterized by inflammatory cell infiltration into the myocardium and is predominantly mediated by viral infection. Despite extensive research, inflammatory cardiomyopathy complicated by left ventricular dysfunction, heart failure or arrhythmia is associated with a poor prognosis. The relative roles of the pathogen, host genomics and environmental factors in disease progression and healing are still under discussion.

Dystroglycanopathy: From Elucidation of Molecular and Pathological Mechanisms to Development of Treatment Methods

Motoi Kanagawa

Summary: Dystroglycanopathy is a group of muscular dystrophies caused by abnormal glycosylation of dystroglycan, with diverse clinical symptoms ranging from congenital to adult-onset types. Research in the 2010s has identified the sugar chain structure and functions of causative gene products, created various model mice for studying pathological mechanisms, and proposed treatment strategies based on glycosylation.

A universal gene correction approach for FKRP-associated dystroglycanopathies to enable autologous cell therapy

Neha R. Dhoke et al.

Summary: This study corrected FKRP mutations using gene editing and restored normal function in vitro. The findings suggest the potential feasibility of using CRISPR-Cas9 technology in combination with patient-specific iPS cells for the future development of autologous cell transplantation for FKRP-related MDs.
