Discovery of antimicrobial peptides targeting Acinetobacter baumannii via a pre-trained and fine-tuned few-shot learning-based pipeline

Project description:Acinetobacter baumannii, a robust Gram-negative bacterium known for inducing nosocomial infections and displaying multidrug resistance, remains a formidable challenge to combat. The limited arsenal of antimicrobial peptides targeting this pathogen underscores the need for innovative strategies. Here, we report a pioneering few-shot learning-based pipeline to identify potent antimicrobial peptides targeting A. baumannii. This pipeline effectively scans through the entire libraries of hexapeptides, heptapeptides, and octapeptides, encompassing tens of billions of candidates, despite the extreme scarcity of available training data. Comprising classification, ranking, and regression modules as an integration, each module is trained using a few-shot learning strategy involving pre-training and multiple fine-tuning steps while incorporating similar and true data fine-tuning. This methodology mitigates the potential overfitting concerns due to the small size of the training samples and then enhances the predictive capability of the pipeline. The results highlight the robustness and versatility of the methodology, demonstrating its effectiveness in discovering AMPs against A. baumannii and C. albicans, while demonstrating low off-target toxicity and negligible susceptibility to drug resistance. Additionally, the EME7(7) exhibits efficacy in controlling A. baumannii infections within a mouse pneumonia model, notably without inducing kidney injury — a contrast to the observed effects of polymyxin B. This work provides a paradigm for addressing the challenges posed by limited data availability.

Few-shot Learning-driven discovery of Lutein suppresses Th1-mediated inflammation via glucose metabolism

Project description:Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven drug discovery is often hindered by the “few-shot” data bottleneck and the limited representational power of traditional two-dimensional models, challenging the accurate identification of functional molecules. In this study, we addressed these challenges by establishing a high-precision screening platform, which leverages transfer learning to recognize the key 3D molecular features of T cell inhibitors. Using this approach, we identified Lutein as a novel, specific immunomodulatory agent from a natural product library. Integrated multi-omics analyses revealed that Lutein activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), suppressing glucose uptake and glycolysis, thereby selectively inhibiting Th1 cell differentiation. In a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced mouse model of ulcerative colitis, Lutein treatment significantly restored Th1-mediated immune balance and alleviated pathological tissue damage. Our findings not only highlight the great potential of “few-shot” AI strategies that leverage transfer learning and 3D molecular features for the discovery of bioactive natural compounds, but also identify Lutein as a promising therapeutic candidate for ulcerative colitis.
