  • Publication number: 20250134905
    Abstract: The present invention relates to use of homoharringtonine in manufacturing a drug for treating an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. A homoharringtonine compound is prepared as a drug for treating the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and is applied to the treatment of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. The homoharringtonine compound can significantly reduce the programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) efficiency of the mRNA of HIV-1 during the translation of a Gag-Pol fusion protein to substantially decrease the translation efficiency of the Pol protein. Therefore, the cell fails to produce protease, integrase, and reverse transcriptase obtained via Pol splicing such that a virus cannot be packaged effectively, which eventually leads to a sharp decline in yield of the virus. Therefore, the compound of the present invention has a good anti-HIV effect.

  • Publication number: 20250139386
    Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to methods, transcriptomics systems, and non-transitory computer readable media for enabling natural language transcriptomics analysis. In some examples, genomic data including gene expression profiles for cells is transformed into sequences of genes ordered by expression level for each of the cells. The sequences of genes are annotated with metadata in a natural language format. A large language model (LLM) is then fine-tuned using the annotated sequences. The LLM is pretrained for natural language processing (NLP) tasks. The fine-tuned LLM is applied to generate and output a result in response to a received prompt in the natural language format. Thus, the LLMs of this technology advantageously both generate and interpret transcriptomics data and interact in natural language to generate meaningful text from cells and valid genes, among many other types of results.
