- システム生物学
背景:
- 慢性疾患は複雑な分子メカニズムに起因しており、創薬を妨げています。
- 人体におけるエントロピーの増加は、慢性疾患の根本原因として特定されています。
研究 の 目的:
- 負エントロピーメカニズムを標的とするための「ヘッドグース分子」(HGM)の概念を導入すること。
- 慢性疾患の創薬戦略として、新しい「HGM-負エントロピー-dCloud」軸を提案すること。
主な方法:
- 負エントロピー機能に不可欠な主要分子(HGM)を特定すること。
- 恒常性維持におけるHGMの役割を調査すること。
- 治療介入のための負エントロピー媒介薬物クラウド(dCloud)効果を概念化すること。
主要な成果:
- HGMは、固有の負エントロピーメカニズムを活性化するための重要な標的として提案されています。
- HGMを標的とする薬物介入は、dCloud効果を介して疾患プロセスを再プログラムすることができます。
- このアプローチは、慢性疾患の症状と根本原因の両方を治療することを目的としています。
結論:
- 「HGM-負エントロピー-dCloud」軸は、慢性疾患の創薬のための新しいパラダイムを提供します。

Entropy
35.4K
Salt particles that have dissolved in water never spontaneously come back together in solution to reform solid particles. Moreover, a gas that has expanded in a vacuum remains dispersed and never spontaneously reassembles. The unidirectional nature of these phenomena is the result of a thermodynamic state function called entropy (S). Entropy is the measure of the extent to which the energy is dispersed throughout a system, or in other words, it is proportional to the degree of disorder of a...

Entropy
3.6K
The first law of thermodynamics is quantitatively formulated via an equation relating the internal energy of a system, the heat exchanged by it, and the work done on it. A quantitative formulation of the second law of thermodynamics leads to defining a state function, the entropy.
When an ideal gas expands isothermally, the disorder in the gas increases. From the molecular perspective, the gas molecules have more volume to move around in.
Consider an infinitesimal step in the expansion, which...

True Stress and True Strain
830
Engineering stress is calculated as the load divided by the original, undeformed cross-sectional area. It approximates a material under load. This approximation is especially relevant post-yield in ductile materials. Though engineering stress-strain diagrams are often used for their convenience and accessibility, they can sometimes fall short in accuracy, particularly when dealing with large strain values.
In contrast, true stress offers a more precise portrayal. It is computed by dividing the...

Standard Entropy Change for a Reaction
24.2K
Entropy is a state function, so the standard entropy change for a chemical reaction (ΔS°rxn) can be calculated from the difference in standard entropy between the products and the reactants.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
2.5K
COPD is defined as a heterogeneous lung condition marked by persistent respiratory symptoms such as dyspnea, cough, and sputum production, caused by abnormalities in the airways that cause airflow obstruction.
Smoking is a primary risk factor for COPD, with over 80% of patients having a history of it. Patients typically experience progressive dyspnea or labored breathing, frequent coughing, and recurrent pulmonary infections. Many eventually succumb to respiratory failure, characterized by...

Chronic Kidney Disease I: Introduction
697
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) arises when the kidneys progressively lose their ability to function, ultimately leading to end-stage renal disease. At this advanced stage, the kidneys can no longer filter waste or maintain essential body functions, requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) through dialysis or a kidney transplant for survival.Early-stage chronic kidney disease and detection challengesIn CKD's early stages, symptoms often remain absent because healthy nephrons compensate for...
