Liposomes are spherical or multilayered spherical vesicles formed by the self-assembly of diacyl chain phospholipids (lipid bilayers) in aqueous solutions, which can be made from natural or synthetic phospholipids and exhibit good biocompatibility and low toxicity. They can serve as delivery carriers for various bioactive substances (such as drugs, proteins, nucleic acids, etc.) and are widely used in biomedical and chemical research. The main advantages of liposomes include 1) Protective effect: Their bilayer structure can protect encapsulated molecules from enzymatic degradation, oxidation, and other influences, extending stability and activity; 2) Active targeting: Surface modifications enable active targeting, enhancing the concentration of drugs or molecules in specific tissues or cells; 3) Customizability: The composition and structure of liposomes can be adjusted according to needs, such as altering phospholipid types or adding targeting ligands. These properties make liposomes highly valuable in developing novel drug delivery systems, serving as nucleic acid carriers for gene transfection, studying cellular uptake mechanisms and drug release kinetics, as well as developing functional food additives to improve the bioavailability of nutritional components.
MCE contains 227 liposome compounds, which is a good tool for drug delivery-related studies.

Lipids are important energy storage substances in the human body. They are involved in the regulation of cell structure and function, as well as signaling pathways and gene expression. Abnormal lipid levels in tissues or their dysregulation can lead to various diseases. These include obesity, type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, neurodegenerative diseases, infections, and cancer. Therefore, maintaining normal levels of lipid metabolism is critical to overall health.
One of the key features of cancer is aberrant lipid metabolism. This includes alterations in lipid uptake, lipid desaturation, neolipogenesis, lipid droplets, and fatty acid oxidation in cancer cells. These changes all contribute to cellular survival in an ever-changing microenvironment. They do this by modulating feed-forward oncogenic signals and key oncogenic functions. Additionally, they affect oxidative stress, other types of stress, immune responses, and intercellular communication. Alterations in lipid metabolism have a strong impact on the properties of cancer stem cells. This includes aspects such as self-renewal, differentiation, invasion, metastasis, drug sensitivity, and resistance. Furthermore, these alterations also modulate T cell responses.
MCE can offer 146 metabolites of lipid metabolism pathways, which can be used for drug screening in cancer, immune-based diseases, metabolic diseases, and other diseases.
PD-1/PD-L1 are key immune checkpoint targets that suppress T-cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity, representing a major focus in cancer immunotherapy. While antibody drugs dominate the clinic, they are limited by administration challenges and immune-related side effects. Small-molecule PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, with oral availability, good tissue penetration and low cost, have emerged as a promising next-generation strategy.
A PD-1/PD-L1 lead-like library was built via a five-step virtual screening process. After collecting 8,947 inhibitors from BindingDB and PubChem and filtering by activity and duplicates, AI similarity screening was performed using GeminiMol. Key pharmacophores were extracted from the PPI interface of co-crystal structures, and molecular was screened via a pharmacophore model, effectively enhancing target activity.
Containing 10,000 structurally diverse and drug-like molecules well-matched to the PD-L1 pocket, the library supports virtual docking, high-throughput screening and hit discovery, enabling efficient and rapid development of small-molecule immunotherapies.
