Some remarks on the Latin of the Didymoi ostraca
Authors: Barchi Serena
Published: May 2023

This paper aims to discuss the linguistic data provided by over 400 ostraca from the praesidium of Didymoi in the Eastern Desert, with a focus on Latin texts and phenomena of interference with Greek. After providing an overview of the socio-historical context of Eastern Egypt, this research conducts a general quantitative analysis of the linguistic features of the Latin ostraca and compares them to other corpora which are similar in terms of chronology and geographic provenance. Our analysis reveals peculiarities of the Latin ostraca from Didymoi, which are further investigated through a qualitative analysis to identify potential levels of variation.

The results of the analysis aim to demonstrate two main points. Firstly, it is not to be ruled out that the Latin language had a greater presence in Roman Egypt than commonly believed, extending beyond the coram imperio public sphere. Secondly, the Latin language emerging from these ostraca is to be considered as a bundle of varieties reflecting in most cases interlanguage stages among learners who have Substandard Latin, variously tending toward Neo-Standard, as their target language.

FEATURES OF COMBUSTION OF HYDROGEN AND ITS MIXTURES WITH METHANE (OR NATURAL GAS) IN BOILERS AND FURNACES
Authors: Marchenko G. S. , Smikhula Anatolii
Published: May 2023

In the work the possibility and principles of partial or complete replacement of natural gas as a fuel with hydrogen and its mixtures with methane (or natural gas) in new and existing boilers and furnaces with a capacity of approximately 0.3-60 MWare determined. The performed calculation showed the possibility of using one diffusion burner on natural gas, hydrogen, or their mixture in any proportion and the thermal power of the burner on methane (or natural gas) and hydrogen or their mixture at the same gas pressure is close. The use of condensing boilers is preferable due to the greater amount of thermal energy (as a percentage of heat output in firebox) that is obtained by condensing water vapor from flue gases when burning hydrogen compared to burning methane (or natural gas) is showed. Some constructions of burners and boilers for burning hydrogen and its mixtures with methane (or natural gas) are proposed. The difference in specific losses during hydrogen transportation by gas pipelines for methane (or natural gas) are determined; when pure hydrogen was supplied into gas pipelines for natural gas, its leakage per unit time (m3/s) will be near 2.8 times higher, but the amount of energy lost will be less by approximately 9.2%.

Authors: Rahman S M Arifur , Mahmood Aziz Hasan , Shaikh Faiz Uddin Ahmed , Sarker Prabir Kumar
Published: May 2023

In this study, the fresh state and hydration properties of 0–60% lithium slag blended cement pastes were investigated at water-binder ratio of 0.47. The workability of the fresh pastes was evaluated by measuring the air content, marsh cone flow, mini-slump flow, setting times, and through rheology tests. A 40% lithium slag cement could produce 91% strength activity index at 28 days; mini-slump pat diameter of 70.54 mm; marsh cone flow efflux time of 145 s; air content 0.6%; hydration heat of 300 J/g (at 72 h). At replacement levels above 40%, the strength activity index, air content, mini-slump flow, hydration heat, and fluidity were significantly reduced. Experimental investigations confirm that the mini-slump test provides the best correlation coefficients (R2 = 0.96) with the maximum shear viscosity of lithium slag cement pastes than the marsh cone flow efflux time and air content. The classical slump and rheological models were used to characterise the mini-slump, yield stress, and plastic viscosity of low to high volume lithium slag cement pastes. The present study recommends that a 40% lithium slag cement paste is a viable option to produce green concrete for optimum fresh, hydration, rheological, and hardened properties.
Isolation characterization and pathogenicity of Helicoverpa armigera single nucleopolyhedrovirus isolate from Türkiye
Authors: GENCER Donus
Published: May 2023

The cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a major pest of agricultural crops, such as cotton, horticultural plants, a range of vegetable crops and forest trees. Many dead and live larvae and pupa samples of H. armigera, an extremely polyphagous pest, were collected from Adana in Türkiye. It was observed that cadaveric integuments were fragile, and their body tissues were also liquefied. Studies with phase-contrast microscopy revealed a very intense baculovirus infection in cadavers. Transmission electron microscopy exhibited that the new baculovirus had one nucleocapsid in an envelope in the occlusion bodies. Therefore, the isolate was named Helicoverpa armigera single nucleopolyhedrovirus-D (HearSNPV-D). The phylogenetic analysis according to the polyhedrin and late expression factor-8 genes appeared that the new isolate was in close relationship with HearSNPV China and Türkiye isolate. The new isolate was tested on six different insects including its own host Helicoverpa armigera, Hyphantria cunea, Malacosoma neustria, Lymantria dispar, Thaumetopea pityocampa and Spodoptera exigua larvae. Bioassay studies showed that HearSNPV-D was virulent to H. armigera and had a narrow host range. The LC50 value was determined as 0.7 × 105 and 1.9 × 107 OBs/ml for H. armigera and S. exigua, respectively. Non-significant mortality was observed in non-host species by HearSNPV-D, which may reveal the highly specific nature of HearSNPV-D. Therefore, HearSNPV-D can be used as a specific, environmentally friendly control agent for H. armigera.

Authors: Ovanesov Karen B. , Beyer Edward V. , Kaminskaya Olga V. , Elbekyan Karine S. , Skornyakov Anton A. , Aleksanova Ekaterina M.
Published: May 2023

BACKGROUND: A stressful event, being a disturbing factor, is invariably accompanied by the disorganization of biological rhythms.
AIM: To examine the effects of stress and pharmacological substances on two models of the temporal organization of behavior, i.e., circadian locomotion and swimming dynamics in rats.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The daily dynamics of rat mobility were assessed in a specially designed device consisting of living cells connected to a computer. Each cell is connected by a lever and a hinge with a button. When the rat moved from one end of the box to the other, the contact was closed, and the program autonomously summed up the number of such movements for each hour of the experiment. The total number of transitions was counted in 3 h, followed by the construction of a chronogram of the circadian rhythm of mobility. To assess the effect of substances on the circadian rhythm, anxiolytics diazepam (0.1 mg/kg), tofisopam (10 mg/kg), and epiphyseal hormone melatonin (0.1 mg/kg) were injected intraperitoneally into rats. Rats that received the same volume of saline injections (0.5 mL) served as controls.
RESULTS: Substances with anxiolytic properties, benzodiazepine derivatives diazepam (0.1 mg/kg) and tofisopam (10 mg/kg), and epiphyseal hormone melatonin (0.1 mg/kg), similarly eliminated stress-induced dysrhythmia in rats. Under their influence, the circadian rhythm of motor activity was normalized, and adaptive shifts were observed in the temporal dynamics of forced swimming.
CONCLUSION: A single stressful event disrupts the dynamics of daily mobility in rats. Diazepam, tofisopam, and melatonin, while differing in potency, generally alleviate these disorders. In particular, anxiolytics restore the rhythm in animals highly sensitive to stress. The studied substances reorganized the temporal dynamics in rats subjected to forced swimming and increased the proportion of long-period oscillations. Primary or secondary elimination of stress dysrhythmia is an important factor in the specific action of anxiolytics.

Published: May 2023

BACKGROUND: Morphological studies conducted in different phases of toxic pulmonary edema initiated by nitrogen oxides have revealed changes in blood vessels and blood cells that develop at the earliest stages of the lesion and precede edema.
AIM: To examine the cellular composition of the blood of mice in the presence of inhalation poisoning with nitrogen oxides.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The toxic lung edema was modeled in mice by inhalation of toxic doses of nitrogen oxides LСt50. Blood cells were determined using a hematological analyzer 0.5, 3, and 24 h after poisoning. Parts of the animals, 30 min after the poisoning, were injected intraperitoneally with a complex of drugs consisting of sodium dimercaptopropane sulfonate (unithiol) 150 mg/kg, diclofenac sodium 35.0 mg/kg, and аprotinin (contrikal) 250 IU / kg.
RESULTS: In mice poisoned with nitrogen oxides, the main differences were observed in the leukocyte count, composition of the leukocyte formula, and platelet count. Thrombocytosis is observed 3 and 24 h after intoxication. The earliest manifestation of blood poisoning (0.5 h) was a decrease in the total leukocyte count (leukopenia). During the pronounced clinical manifestations of nitric oxide poisoning (3 h), a change in the leukocyte formula toward an increase in the proportion of granulocytes and medium cells (granulocytosis and eosinophilia-monocytosis) was noted. A day after the poisoning, the noted indicators generally return to the initial level. Treatment of poisoned animals with a combination of drugs neutralizes the observed effects.
CONCLUSION: The combination of drugs consisting of sodium dimercaptopropane sulfonate (unithiol), diclofenac sodium, and аprotinin (contrikal) was found to be effective in the treatment of toxic lung edema induced by nitrogen oxides.

Integración da responsabilidade ambiental nos estudos de Arquitectura a través das materias de Paisaxe
Authors: Rodríguez Álvarez Jorge
Published: May 2023

The foundational hypothesis to achieve an effective integration of environmental consciousness in architectural training starts from the idea of providing an alternative to the conventional vision in urbanism and architecture, which is a top-down approach. The territory is typically observed from above, as in a floor plan or an aerial view, which creates a conceptual and physical distance from the reality that occurs at the ground level. As an alternative, we propose a perspective based on human scale, on experience and observation of ongoing processes (physical, social, environmental...) that take place in the area of study. To achieve this, a learning framework based on a project and three fundamental pillars is implemented, all of which are aimed at encouraging experimentation. These pillars are: [a] the theoretical principles and concepts, [b] the tools and methodologies applicable to the problems to be tackled [c] the practical cases to which these concepts and tools will be applied. This approach strongly encourages observation and experimentation, allowing a better understanding of complex processes and abstract indicators or formulations through direct experience. The observed results show an improvement in the acquisition of skills and the understanding of the key concepts and methodologies of the discipline.

Atorvastatin at a dose of 20 (20; 40) mg as recommended at the hospital was the most frequently prescribed statin. 5 (3.68%) patients achieved the goal LDL-C of ≤1.4 mmol/l.Conclusion    Statins prevail in the structure of lipid-lowering therapy in patients with very high CVR. The frequency of combination therapy (statin/ezetimibe, 5.88%; PCSK9 inhibitor/statin, 0.74%) and PCSK9 inhibitors was noted to be low. Only 3.68% of patients achieved the goal LDL-C during the lipid-lowering treatment.
Competencias interculturales. Una propuesta emancipadora
Authors: Aguilar Idáñez María José , Buraschi Daniel
Published: May 2023

Este texto es resultado de la sistematización de nuestra experiencia profesional, investigadora, formativa y de acción social comprometida con la transformación, para eliminar las prácticas opresivas y el racismo institucional que actualmente está presente en no pocas actuaciones llevadas a cabo desde los servicios, programas y políticas sociales públicas. Está dirigido a personas con responsabilidad en la gestión de servicios y programas y a profesionales que trabajan en contextos de intervención social, educativa, cultural, salud, empleo, vivienda y cualquier otro ámbito de las políticas públicas; ya sea que trabajen en el sector público, el sector privado o en entidades del tercer sector. También está dirigido a profesionales en formación, ya se trate de estudiantes de grado o postgrado, en cualquier rama de conocimiento que implique relacionarse con personas de diferentes culturas o de diferentes orígenes. Nuestro objetivo es repensar las competencias interculturales propuestas hasta ahora, enclave emancipadora y aplicada a la intervención social, para evitar la reproducción de modelos de intervención que invisibilizan las desigualdades, son funcionales a un sistema injusto y reproducen una imagen pasiva y estereotipada de las personas migrantes. Repensar las competencias interculturales desde una perspectiva emancipadora significa analizar críticamente los modelos de intervención dominantes, poner en el centro la dimensión de poder que afecta las relaciones interculturales, reconocer el carácter estructural del racismo, y promover el protagonismo de las personas migrantes y racializadas en su lucha para la transformación social.
Territorial marginality: causes, methods and policies.
Authors: Vendemmia Bruna , Kerucku Agim Enver , Vecchio Giovanni
Published: May 2023

What are the different factors that make a territory marginal? Are contextual features related to spatial, socioeconomic, institutional, or cultural elements differently influencing marginality in different countries? These are the questions at the origin of this Special Issue.

Marginal areas are traditionally defined as those far from the main urban centres, based on a core-periphery model (Cullen & Pretes, 2000; Gatzweiler & Baumüller, 2014; Herrschel, 2012; Ferrau & Lopes, 2004; Bock, 2016). From this perspective, marginality is an intrinsic spatial condition rather than a transient feature. However, the geographic distance from the poles is only one among the many conditions that can help to define marginality, which could be better defined as a process deeply influenced by socioeconomic changes (Máliková, Farrell, McDonagh, 2016). Marginal regions can be peripheral in geographical location but advanced regarding their socioeconomic situation. On the other hand, not every marginal Region is necessarily peripheral: on the contrary, several studies suggest an interpretation of marginality as a lack of socioeconomic and political connection (Leimgruber, 2004; Pelc, 2006; Bock, 2016).

Moreover, in European countries such as Germany, France and Italy, the concept of marginality has often been associated with rural or mountainous areas. Still, different contributions to this Special Issue show that marginal territories may have very diverse geographical and orographic conditions. In addition, the scale at which a region can be defined as marginal and the administrative borders may also significantly influence the definition of marginality itself.

The lack of a broad, shared definition of marginality affects the identification of marginal territories and the possibility of developing adequate territorial policies to rebalance their marginal condition. Europe shows different attempts at defining marginal territories before proposing devoted policies. For example, Italy refers to the concept of "inner areas" (Materiali Uval, 2014), while the Espon (2017) project PROFECY refers to "inner peripheries". The different names given to marginal territories and the different definitions of marginality require exploring the meaning of considering the other features that may make a territory marginal. As a result, marginality should move from the core-periphery model that considers accessibility to services and goods and distance from central places, considering how a combination of physical, social, economic, institutional and cultural aspects defines marginal territories.
The Opportunity Trap
Authors: Banerjee Pallavi
Published: May 2023

The Opportunity Trap explores how Indian immigrants grapple with the liminality of their positions as temporary workers or nonworking spouses as well as aspiring citizens after they migrate with their families to the United States for work. Drawing on extensive qualitative data from in-depth interviews, observations, and archival research, this is the first book to compare the work and family lives of two distinct groups of Indian immigrants: men tech workers and women nurses relocating with their spouses, who arrive on H-4 dependent visas. Banerjee unravels the dissonance between the state’s perception of these migrants as internationally mobile skilled workers and the immigrant subjects’ tribulations when negotiating the contradictory expectations of being ideal citizens/workers/families without having the security of permanence in the United States. She also shows how restrictions on the spouses of migrant temporary workers, who are not allowed to work for pay as a condition of their dependent visas in the United States, constrain and fracture individuals and their families, leading many to refer to the dependent visas as “vegetable visas” and “prison visas.” The Opportunity Trap reveals how visa policies strip women and men of basic rights within the home, at the workplace, and in civil society by creating gendered and racialized structures of state-imposed dependence comprising the state, work organizations, and transnational global processes, all shaping the lives of migrant workers and their families. Visa policies that are framed as legally gender- and race-neutral in fact have gendered and racialized ramifications for visa holders and their spouses. This book shows how those whose worlds are tied to these visas struggle to negotiate their lives within a visa regime embedded in a gendered and racialized system of oppression.

O presente artigo analisa a constitucionalização do direito à saúde e sua regulamentação pela Lei n. 8.080/90, destacando a necessidade de considerar o direito e seu custo diante da escassez de recursos. Ressalta a atuação da Comissão Nacional de Incorporação de Tecnologias no Sistema Único de Saúde na atividade de análise de incorporação de medicamentos na lista de fármacos custeados pela política pública de saúde. Adota uma metodologia crítica a partir da análise da atuação de referida comissão e de decisões judiciais. Aborda a necessidade, para evolução e qualificação dos serviços de saúde pelos entes federativos, de observância das competências estabelecidas em lei e dos critérios legais de análise dos pedidos de inclusão de novas tecnologias em saúde, apontando-os como necessários à composição da motivação do ato decisório de inclusão ou não inclusão de fármacos. O artigo chama atenção para a necessidade de evolução didática e melhor publicização sobre a compreensão da análise realizada pelo Ministério da Saúde, de forma a permitir a melhor qualificação do poder judiciário diante das demandas que lhe são apresentadas sobre o tema do fornecimento de medicamentos não pactuados no âmbito da política pública, inclusive no que se refere à necessidade de considerações sobre as capacidades institucionais dos entes legitimados para efetuar as prestações de saúde.
Recomendações dos organismos internacionais para a América Latina: inclusão escolar, sustentabilidade e desigualdade estrutural

Objetiva-se discutir as recomendações de organismos internacionais para a Educação Especial e Inclusão na América Latina (AL) no século XXI, como resultado de pesquisa interinstitucional, de natureza bibliográfico-documental, sobre as políticas públicas para a Educação Especial e a inclusão educacional em países latino-americanos. À luz do materialismo histórico e da Teoria Histórico-cultural, as condições objetivas de desenvolvimento dos países são levantadas, pois a educação que ofertam depende da riqueza material e simbólica/cultural acumulada e da sua distribuição/fruição - em acordo com a classe social. A metodologia contou com a análise de documentos norteadores de organismos internacionais para a AL subsidiada por produções teóricas que possibilitam a compreensão da temática. Os resultados apontaram que a partir dos anos 2000 esses organismos orientam os governos a se atentarem à inclusão e à preservação/educação ambiental, entendendo que, pelo percentual de pessoas que abarca, o grupo da Educação Especial não pode ser ignorado, sobretudo num momento de notório crescimento da desigualdade econômico-social na América Latina. Nesta terceira década o discurso da inclusão escolar/educacional se dá em meio à desigualdade social que alcança índices estarrecedores, o que obstaculiza ainda mais o desenvolvimento do psiquismo do referido grupo. Conclui-se, ante esse quadro, pela necessidade de acompanhar como a desigualdade provocada pela deficiência e as NEE são enfrentadas pelos países com suas políticas educacionais ordinária e extraordinariamente. Esse acompanhamento deve implicar na participação efetiva desse grupo, considerando-o capaz de pensar sobre si e o mundo, e ser instrumentalizado/formado para tanto.

Published: May 2023

Most of the plastic waste is generated by households. Plastic waste is often a problem because there are many and cannot decompose by itself. To solve the problem of plastic waste, plastic waste management will be carried out by channeling plastic waste to the waste bank. Good and correct management of plastic waste distribution is carried out by applying transportation methods starting from modeling the distribution of plastic waste generated from households and solutions from mathematical modeling that is built. From the transportation calculation, the minimum cost of managing the distribution of plastic waste will be obtained so that an efficient plastic waste distribution management system is formed. This study uses the type of experimental research (experimental research) with a literature study. The data used to construct the model are derived from literature studies and simulation data. The results of this study can be developed into a computer program regarding the management of household plastic waste distribution.

Muslim and Latin-American Immigrant Communities in Spain
Authors: Alekseev D.
Published: May 2023

Spain was characterized by a high proportion of migrants in its population, which was perceived by the majority of Spanish society as excessive, raising concerns about the increased crime, insecurity, competition for jobs and social benefits. With the growth of Islamophobia and xenophobia towards migrants, it was important to analyze the integration problems, that most affected migrants from Africa and Latin America. The purpose of this article is to analyze the impact of social, ethnic, cultural and religious characteristics of the Muslim and Latin American immigrant communities on their integration into Spanish society. The empirical basis for the analysis includes the results of investigations by the Spanish think tanks and statistical data from the National Institute of Statistics of Spain on the subject. The analysis showed that the key problem of integration is discrimination against migrants in the labour market and in housing rentals, and the main factors determining the level of discrimination are not so much cultural, religious and ethnic characteristics, as a low social status of immigrants. The success of the migrants’ integration depends directly on the results of combating discrimination, xenophobia and racism, which create social tension in society and contribute to the isolation and marginalization of migrants. The results of the immigrant survey indicate that social class and work are determinants of the subjective well-being of immigrants, which means that the labour market is the main area of integration policy. In this regard, labour management and employment policies for immigrants, especially low-income workers, should be the first and central core of strategies for social integration and for combating discrimination and racism.

Elderlies have experienced various life challenges during their life. Therefore, most of them have achieved their maturity in life including their awareness of religious and spirituality. While living in a nursing home that is separated from the family closeness may stimulate stress. Their religious and spiritual maturity may be utilized to cope with their new life challenges. This study was to explore religious coping used among elderlies living in nursing homes. A prospective study design was conducted. Totally, 45 elderlies living in the nursing home were invited into the study. A total sampling technique was applied. The religious coping strategy was investigated using questioner Brief R Cope Bahasa Indonesia version.  Results indicated that scores of the positive religious coping are higher than the negative religious coping by 16.77 and 5.75 respectively on the first measurement, and 15.3 and 5.05 respectively on the second measurement.  Scores of positive religious copings were higher than the negative religious coping in both measurements. Inconclusion, elderlies living in the nursing home tended to use positive religious coping strategies instead of negative religious coping.

One of the recent cases is the disposal of Indonesian crew members in the Pacific Ocean by China fishing vessel Long Xing 629 in 2020. As a result, Indonesian crew members once again become modern slavery victims in the fishing industry. This article analyzes how Indonesian crew members became the victims of modern slavery in Long Xing 629. This paper will use descriptive qualitative research within the data collected from books, journals, articles, and news. In addition, the Eleven Categories of Forced Labor by ILO and Modern Slavery Theory by Andrew Crane will use to help analyze the case. The research shows that Indonesian crew members of Long Xing 629 become the victims of modern slavery due to their socio-economic conditions, such as poverty and low education. This condition is also supported by weak state regulation, such as weak government protection and lack of government attention, which conditions tend to lure and trap them in modern slavery. This paper believes that it will contribute to the modern slavery study in the fishing industry research field to help reduce and resolve a similar case in the future.

Hyperuricemia is a condition where uric acid levels in the body exceed normal limits due to an increase in excessive purine synthesis in the body due to unhealthy eating patterns, the process of excreting uric acid from the body is disrupted or a combination of both. Black garlic contains s-allyl cysteine ​​(SAC), tetrahydro-β-carbolines, alkaloids, and flavonoids which are thought to inhibit the action of the xanthine oxidase enzyme so that it can reduce uric acid. The short-term aim of this study was to determine the effect of black garlic on uric acid levels in hyperuricemic white rats. The long-term goal to be achieved is the use of black garlic to prevent and or overcome the negative effects of hyperuricemia. Rats were grouped into five groups: positive control (A), allopurinol group (B), garlic group at doses of 240 mg (C), 480 mg (D) and 960 mg (E). Induction of hyperuricemia was carried out by injection of potassium oxonate and addition of cow brains for 14 days, followed by treatment. The average yield of uric acid in each group was A: 15.02 ± 0.71, B: 6.45 ± 0.13, C: 8.46 ± 0.12, D: 7.64 ± 0.14, E: 7.55 ± 0.55. Data were analyzed using One Way ANOVA followed by Post Hoc LSD. In conclusion, by giving various doses of black garlic can reduce uric acid levels in hyperuricemia rats.
LITERATURE REVIEW: IS CONSUMPTION OF AKING RICE RECOMMENDED FOR PATIENTS WITH DIABETES MELLITUS?
Authors: Wisesa Sindhu
Published: May 2023

Intake of carbohydrates with a low glycemic index is recommended for individuals with diabetes mellitus or healthy people to improve blood sugar control, insulin sensitivity, and cholesterol levels. Aking rice is made from leftover rice that has been dried and recooked. This technique is commonly used in Indonesia as a method for retrograding rice. By retrograding carbohydrate sources, resistant starch that cannot be digested is produced, lowering the glycemic index and making it suitable for diabetes mellitus patients. This review is intended to provide insight into the potential of aking rice for reducing the glycemic index of diabetic patients. In order to write the review, information was gathered from Google Scholar and PubMed. Based on the results of a literature search, no studies have been identified to demonstrate that consuming aking rice offers direct benefits to individuals with diabetes mellitus. Aking rice has a higher content of resistant starch and a lower glycemic index than white rice. In experiments with animals, retrograded rice was found to cause a greater reduction in blood sugar levels than white rice. The consumption of retrograded rice results in a lower blood sugar level curve than that of white rice in healthy individuals, and improves the glycemic response in diabetic patients. Nevertheless, only a few studies examine the health benefits of aking rice or retrograded rice in patients with diabetes mellitus. Therefore, although aking rice potentially serves as a good source of carbohydrates, no definitive conclusions can be drawn regarding its direct benefits to patients with diabetes mellitus.

Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are associated with various diseases; hence, they are important targets in drug discovery. However, the physicochemical empirical properties of PPI-targeted drugs are distinct from those of conventional small molecule oral pharmaceuticals, which adhere to the ”rule of five (RO5).” Therefore, developing PPI-targeted drugs using conventional methods, such as molecular generation models, is difficult. In this study, we propose a molecule generation model based on deep reinforcement learning, which is specialized for generating PPI inhibitor candidates. We successfully generated potential PPI inhibitor compounds by modifying the scoring functions of the existing small molecule generation model and constructed a virtual library of generated PPI inhibitor compounds.
