Naidu P, Holford M
Immunology . 2024 Aug; 173(4):605-621. PMID: 39188052
The innate immune response is under selection pressures from changing environments and pathogens. While sequence evolution can be studied by comparing rates of amino acid mutations within and between species,...

Achimba F, Faezov B, Cohen B, Dunbrack R, Holford M
Mol Cancer Ther . 2023 Nov; 23(2):139-147. PMID: 38015557
The regulation of cellular processes by ion channels has become central to the study of cancer mechanisms. Designing molecules that can modify ion channels specific to tumor cells is a...

Cerullo A, McDermott M, Pepi L, Liu Z, Barry D, Zhang S, et al.
Nat Commun . 2023 Sep; 14(1):5361. PMID: 37660066
Every animal secretes mucus, placing them among the most diverse biological materials. Mucus hydrogels are complex mixtures of water, ions, carbohydrates, and proteins. Uncertainty surrounding their composition and how interactions...

Romano J, Li H, Napolitano T, Realubit R, Karan C, Holford M, et al.
Toxins (Basel) . 2023 Jul; 15(7). PMID: 37505720
Venoms are a diverse and complex group of natural toxins that have been adapted to treat many types of human disease, but rigorous computational approaches for discovering new therapeutic activities...

Achrak E, Ferd J, Schulman J, Dang T, Krampis K, Holford M
Methods Mol Biol . 2022 Jun; 2498:89-97. PMID: 35727542
Animal venoms are among the most complex natural secretions known, comprising a mixture of bioactive compounds often referred to as toxins. Venom arsenals are predominately made up of cysteine-rich peptide...

Grillo C, Holford M, Walter N
Integr Comp Biol . 2021 Jul; 61(6):2048-2052. PMID: 34254127
In this future-spanning perspective, we examine how an agent-based model could be used to define general rules for interactions across biological systems and evolutionary time. To date, there have been...

Gorson J, Fassio G, Lau E, Holford M
Toxins (Basel) . 2021 Feb; 13(2). PMID: 33540609
Predator-prey interactions are thought to play a driving role in animal evolution, especially for groups that have developed venom as their predatory strategy. However, how the diet of venomous animals...
