PowerNovo: de novo peptide sequencing via tandem mass spectrometry using an ensemble of transformer and BERT models.

The primary objective of analyzing the data obtained in a mass spectrometry-based proteomic experiment is peptide and protein identification, or correct assignment of the tandem mass spectrum to one amino acid sequence. Comparison of empirical fragment spectra with the theoretical predicted one or matching with the collected spectra library are commonly accepted strategies of proteins identification and defining of their amino acid sequences. Although these approaches are widely used and are appreciably efficient for the well-characterized model organisms or measured proteins, they cannot detect novel peptide sequences that have not been previously annotated or are rare. This study presents PowerNovo tool for de novo sequencing of proteins using tandem mass spectra acquired in a variety of types of mass analyzers and different fragmentation techniques. PowerNovo involves an ensemble of models for peptide sequencing: model for detecting regularities in tandem mass spectra, precursors, and fragment ions and a natural language processing model, which has a function of peptide sequence quality assessment and helps with reconstruction of noisy sequences. The results of testing showed that the performance of PowerNovo is comparable and even better than widely utilized PointNovo, DeepNovo, Casanovo, and Novor packages. Also, PowerNovo provides complete cycle of processing (pipeline) of mass spectrometry data and, along with predicting the peptide sequence, involves the peptide assembly and protein inference blocks.

Prediction of the Aggressive Clinical Course of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Based on Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy Molecular Testing.

Molecular genetic events are among the numerous factors affecting the clinical course of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Recent studies have demonstrated that aberrant expression of miRNA, as well as different thyroid-related genes, correlate with the aggressive clinical course of PTC and unfavorable treatment outcomes, which opens up new avenues for using them in the personalization of the treatment strategy for patients with PTC. In the present work, our goal was to assess the applicability of molecular markers in the preoperative diagnosis of aggressive variants of papillary thyroid cancer. The molecular genetic profile (expression levels of 34 different markers and BRAF mutations) was studied for 108 cytology specimens collected by fine-needle aspiration biopsy in patients with PTC having different clinical manifestations. Statistically significant differences with adjustment for multiple comparisons (p < 0.0015) for clinically aggressive variants of PTC were obtained for four markers: miRNA-146b, miRNA-221, fibronectin 1 (FN1), and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A) genes. A weak statistical correlation (0.0015 < p < 0.05) was observed for miRNA-31, -375, -551b, -148b, -125b, mtDNA, CITED1, TPO, HMGA2, CLU, NIS, SERPINA1, TFF3, and TMPRSS4. The recurrence risk of papillary thyroid carcinoma can be preoperatively predicted using miRNA-221, FN1, and CDKN2A genes.

Cytotoxic and radical activities of metal-organic framework modified with iron oxide: Biological and physico-chemical analyses.

Metal-organic framework (MOF) modified with iron oxide, Fe3O4-MOF, is a perspective drug delivery agent, enabling magnetic control and production of active hydroxyl radicals, •OH, via the Fenton reaction. This paper studies cytotoxic and radical activities of Fe-containing nanoparticles (NPs): Fe3O4-MOF and its components - bare Fe3O4 and MOF (MIL-88B). Luminous marine bacteria Photobacteriumphosphoreum were used as a model cellular system to monitor bioeffects of the NPs. Neither the NPs of Fe3O4-MOF nor MOF showed cytotoxic effects in a wide range of concentrations (<10 mg/L); while Fe3O4 was toxic at >3·10-3 mg/L. The NPs of Fe3O4 did not affect the bacterial bioluminescence enzymatic system; their toxic effect was attributed to cellular membrane processes. The integral content of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was determined using a chemiluminescence luminol assay. Bacteria mitigated excess of ROS in water suspensions of Fe3O4-MOF and MOF, maintaining bioluminescence intensity closer to the control; this resulted in low toxicity of these NPs. We estimated the activity of •OH radicals in the NPs samples with physical and chemical methods - spin capture technology (using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy) and methylene blue degradation. Physico-chemical interpretation of cellular responses is provided in terms of iron content, iron ions release and •OH radical production.

Mts1 (S100A4) and Its Peptide Demonstrate Cytotoxic Activity in Complex with Tag7 (PGLYRP1) Peptide.

Receptors of cytokines are major regulators of the immune response. In this work, we have discovered two new ligands that can activate the TNFR1 (tumor necrosis factor receptor 1) receptor. Earlier, we found that the peptide of the Tag (PGLYRP1) protein designated 17.1 can interact with the TNFR1 receptor. Here, we have found that the Mts1 (S100A4) protein interacts with this peptide with a high affinity (Kd = 1.28 × 10-8 M), and that this complex is cytotoxic to cancer cells that have the TNFR1 receptor on their surface. This complex induces both apoptosis and necroptosis in cancer cells with the involvement of mitochondria and lysosomes in cell death signal transduction. Moreover, we have succeeded in locating the Mts1 fragment that is responsible for protein-peptide interaction, which highly specifically interacts with the Tag7 protein (Kd = 2.96 nM). The isolated Mts1 peptide M7 also forms a complex with 17.1, and this peptide-peptide complex also induces the TNFR1 receptor-dependent cell death. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics experiments show the amino acids involved in peptide binding and that may be used for peptidomimetics' development. Thus, two new cytotoxic complexes were created that were able to induce the death of tumor cells via the TNFR1 receptor. These results may be used in therapy for both cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Free Salivary Amino Acid Profile in Breast Cancer: Clinicopathological and Molecular Biological Features.

The study of salivary amino acid profiles has attracted the attention of researchers, since amino acids are actively involved in most metabolic processes, including breast cancer. In this study, we analyzed the amino acid profile of saliva in a sample including all molecular biological subtypes of breast cancer to obtain a more complete picture and evaluate the potential utility of individual amino acids or their combinations for diagnostic purposes. This study included 116 patients with breast cancer, 24 patients with benign breast disease, and 25 healthy controls. From all patients, strictly before the start of treatment, saliva samples were collected, and the quantitative content of 26 amino acids was determined. Statistically significant differences between the three groups are shown in the content of Asp, Gly, Leu + Ile, Orn, Phe, Pro, Thr, and Tyr. To differentiate the three groups from each other, a decision tree was built. To construct it, we selected those amino acids for which the change in concentrations in the subgroups was multidirectional (GABA, Hyl, Arg, His, Pro, and Car). For the first time, it is shown that the amino acid profile of saliva depends on the molecular biological subtype of breast cancer. The most significant differences are shown for the luminal B HER2-positive and TNBC subgroups. In our opinion, it is critically important to consider the molecular biological subtype of breast cancer when searching for potential diagnostic markers.

The 12-Membered TNFR1 Peptide, as Well as the 16-Membered and 6-Membered TNF Peptides, Regulate TNFR1-Dependent Cytotoxic Activity of TNF.

Understanding the exact mechanisms of the activation of proinflammatory immune response receptors is very important for the targeted regulation of their functioning. In this work, we were able to identify the sites of the molecules in the proinflammatory cytokine TNF (tumor necrosis factor) and its TNFR1 (tumor necrosis factor receptor 1), which are necessary for the two-stage cytotoxic signal transduction required for tumor cell killing. A 12-membered TNFR1 peptide was identified and synthesized, interacting with the ligands of this receptor protein's TNF and Tag7 and blocking their binding to the receptor. Two TNF cytokine peptides interacting with different sites of TNFR1 receptors were identified and synthesized. It has been demonstrated that the long 16-membered TNF peptide interferes with the binding of TNFR1 ligands to this receptor, and the short 6-membered peptide interacts with the receptor site necessary for the transmission of a cytotoxic signal into the cell after the ligands' interaction with the binding site. This study may help in the development of therapeutic approaches to regulate the activity of the cytokine TNF.

A new centrohelid heliozoan, Pterocystis polycristalepis sp. nov., and taxonomic and phylogenetic concerns within Pterista (Haptista: Centroplasthelida).

A new species of centrohelid heliozoans, Pterocystis polycristalepis sp. nov. (Pterocystidae), was examined using light and electron microscopy. The novel centrohelid is characterized by the presence of leaf-like spine-scales with a broad pedicel-like structure on the proximal part and many subparallel ribs on the lateral wing surface. The plate-scales are ovoid with medial tubular thickening and many subparallel ribs on the very extensive marginal rim. The closely related species Pterocystis striata has also been studied in detail using light and electron microscopy. Phylogenetic analysis of 18S rRNA gene sequences placed both species into a separate clade within Pterista. The closest morphologically characterized species to the new clade is Triangulopteris lacunata. The 18S rRNA sequence of Pseudoraphidiophrys veliformis was grouped within Pterista and found to be closely related to Pterocystis polycristalepis, Pterocystis striata, and Triangulopteris lacunata. Cyst-scales of various shapes, cell and cyst aggregations, syncytia, and a cell with a stalk were revealed in a clonal culture of P. veliformis. Analysis of the morphology and phylogenetic position of the studied species and other centrohelids revealed a large number of taxonomic and phylogenetic problems in Pterista.

Time-Delayed Anticancer Effect of an Extremely Low Frequency Alternating Magnetic Field and Multimodal Protein-Tannin-Mitoxantrone Carriers with Brillouin Microspectroscopy Visualization In Vitro.

The effect of an extremely low frequency alternating magnetic field (ELF AMF) at frequencies of 17, 48, and 95 Hz at 100 mT on free and internalized 4T1 breast cancer cell submicron magnetic mineral carriers with an anticancer drug, mitoxantrone, was shown. The alternating magnetic field (100 mT; 17, 48, 95 Hz; time of treatment-10.5 min with a 30 s delay) does not lead to the significant destruction of carrier shells and release of mitoxantrone or bovine serum albumin from them according to the data of spectrophotometry, or the heating of carriers in the process of exposure to magnetic fields. The most optimal set of factors that would lead to the suppression of proliferation and survival of cells with anticancer drug carriers on the third day (in comparison with the control and first day) is exposure to an alternating magnetic field of 100 mT in a pulsed mode with a frequency of 95 Hz. The presence of magnetic nanocarriers in cell lines was carried out by a direct label-free method, space-resolved Brillouin light scattering (BLS) spectrometry, which was realized for the first time. The analysis of the series of integrated BLS spectra showed an increase in the magnetic phase in cells with a growth in the number of particles per cell (from 10 to 100) after their internalization. The safety of magnetic carriers in the release of their constituent ions has been evaluated using atomic absorption spectrometry.

The Interaction of HMGB1 with the Proinflammatory TREM-1 Receptor Generates Cytotoxic Lymphocytes Active against HLA-Negative Tumor Cells.

High mobility group protein (HMGB1) is secreted by myeloid cells and cells of damaged tissues during inflammation, causing inflammatory reactions through various receptors, including TLRS and RAGE. TREM-1 is considered to be one of the potential HMGB1 receptors. In this work, we have shown that the HMGB1 protein is able to bind to the TREM-1 receptor at high affinity both in solution and on the cell surface. This binding causes lymphocytes to release cytokines IL-2, IL-1b, IL-6, TNF and Ifny into the medium, which leads to the appearance of cytotoxic lymphocytes in PBMC capable of lysing HLA-negative tumor cells. Expanding the spectra of proinflammatory receptor ligands and understanding the mechanisms of their action is essential for the creation of new immunotherapy pathways.

Investigation of extragonadal teratomas in two Poecilia wingei.

Teratoma is a rare tumour in fish consisting of tissues from more than one germ layer, that may be located in either the gonads or extragonadal sites. Teratomas in many fish species remain poorly understood. In this work, we performed the first histological examinations of extragonadal teratomas in Poecilia wingei and also examined the influence of a large teratoma on male sexual activity. The studied teratomas shared general organizational features, but they also had variations in both external and internal features. In teratomas, the most common and highly differentiated tissues were striated muscle and nervous tissue. Despite the tumour, the male P. wingei exhibited normal mating behaviour and retained the ability for successful copulation. The structural features of extragonadal teratomas in guppy fish indicate a possible connection between these tumours and a failure of conserved processes operating in the embryonic germline.

Low-symmetry A3 B-type 6H-1,4-diazepinoporphyrazines with anti-Kasha effect as promising photosensitizers.

A series of tribenzo[g,l,q]-6H-1,4-diazepino[2,3-b]porphyrazines has been synthesized. A temperature-dependent steric effect was applied in the mixed Linstead macrocyclization of phthalonitrile and 5,7-bis(2'-arylethenyl)-6-propyl-6H-1,4-diazepine-2,3-dicarbonitrile to achieve high yield of low-symmetry A3 B-type Mg(II) tribenzo[g,l,q]-6H-1,4-diazepino[2,3-b]porphyrazinate. The analysis of photophysical and photochemical properties of the obtained complexes showed the anti-Kasha effect: the ultrafast spin changes successfully compete with the IC. TD-DFT calculations showed that the presence of 1,4-diazepine heterocycle in the porphyrazine structure leads to the formation of additional charge-transfer triplet state T2 . We propose, it could participate in the pumping of T1x state alongside with T1y state (these states are degenerate in D4h symmetry) and, therefore, increase singlet oxygen (1 Δg ) generation. Stable micellar nanoparticles have been obtained based on the tribenzo[g,l,q]-6H-1,4-diazepino[2,3-b]porphyrazine Mg(II) and Zn(II) complexes using polyvinylpyrrolidone. The nanoparticles effectively interact with model biological structures (FBS and brain homogenate), leading to disaggregation of the macrocycles. They also exhibit pronounced phototoxic effects in MCF-7 cells upon red light irradiation. We propose that enhancement in PDT activity could be explained by their increased resistance to aggregation due to the presence of n-propyl substituent directly attached to the C6 position of the 1,4-diazepine moiety. The demonstrated results show the promising potential of tribenzo-6H-1,4-diazepinoporphyrazines as heavy atom-free photosensitizers.

Characterization of hERG K+ channel inhibition by the new class III antiarrhythmic drug cavutilide.

Cavutilide (niferidil, refralon) is a new class III antiarrhythmic drug which effectively terminates persistent atrial fibrillation (AF; 84.6% of patients, mean AF duration 3 months) and demonstrates low risk of torsade de pointes (1.7%). ERG channels of rapid delayed rectifier current(IKr) are the primary target of cavutilide, but the particular reasons of higher effectiveness and lower proarrhythmic risk in comparison with other class III IKr blockers are unclear. The inhibition of hERG channels expressed in CHO-K1 cells by cavutilide was studied using whole-cell patch-clamp. The present study demonstrates high sensitivity of IhERG expressed in CHO-K1 cells to cavutilide (IC50 = 12.8 nM). Similarly to methanesulfonanilide class III agents, but unlike amiodarone and related drugs, cavutilide does not bind to hERG channels in their resting state. However, in contrast to dofetilide, cavutilide binds not only to opened, but also to inactivated channels. Moreover, at positive constantly set membrane potential (+ 60 mV) inhibition of IhERG by 100 nM cavutilide develops faster than at 0 mV and, especially, - 30 mV (τ of inhibition was 78.8, 103, and 153 ms, respectively). Thereby, cavutilide produces IhERG inhibition only when the cell is depolarized. During the same period of time, cavutilide produces greater block of IhERG when the cell is depolarized with 2 Hz frequency, if compared to 0.2 Hz. We suggest that, during the limited time after injection, cavutilide produces stronger inhibition of IKr in fibrillating atrium than in non-fibrillating ventricle. This leads to beneficial combination of antiarrhythmic effectiveness and low proarrhythmicity of cavutilide.

Morphological and molecular characterization of a new member of the phylum Rhodelphidia.

Rhodelphidia is a recently discovered phylum within the supergroup Archaeplastida, comprising only two known representatives (Rhodelphis marinus and Rhodelphis limneticus). Despite its close phylogenetic relatedness to red algae, Rhodelphidia differ markedly by being nonphotosynthetic eukaryotrophic flagellates with gene- and intron-rich genomes. Here, we describe a new freshwater Rhodelphidia species, Rhodelphis mylnikovi sp. n., strain Rhod-M. It shows clear morphological differences with the two other Rhodelphis species, including larger cell body size, presence of two contractile vacuoles, short and blunt pseudopodia, absence of cysts, and tendency to cannibalism. 18S rRNA-based phylogenetic analysis placed it sister to the freshwater species R. limneticus.

Bacteriophage-encoded chaperonins stimulate prion protein fibrillation in an ATP-dependent manner.

The pathogenesis of the various prion diseases is based on the conformational conversion of the prion protein from its physiological cellular form to the insoluble scrapie isoform. Several chaperones, including the Hsp60 family of group I chaperonins, are known to contribute to this transformation, but data on their effects are scarce and conflicting. In this work, two GroEL-like phage chaperonins, the single-ring OBP and the double-ring EL, were found to stimulate monomeric prion protein fibrillation in an ATP-dependent manner. The resulting fibrils were characterised by thioflavin T fluorescence, electron microscopy, proteinase K digestion assay and other methods. In the presence of ATP, chaperonins were found to promote the conversion of prion protein monomers into short amyloid fibrils with their further aggregation into less toxic large clusters. Fibrils generated with the assistance of phage chaperonins differ in morphology and properties from those formed spontaneously from monomeric prion in the presence of denaturants at acidic pH.

Composition of Conditioned Media from Radioresistant and Chemoresistant Cancer Cells Reveals miRNA and Other Secretory Factors Implicated in the Development of Resistance.

Resistance to chemo- or radiotherapy is the main obstacle to consistent treatment outcomes in oncology patients. A deeper understanding of the mechanisms driving the development of resistance is required. This review focuses on secretory factors derived from chemo- and radioresistant cancer cells, cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and cancer stem cells (CSCs) that mediate the development of resistance in unexposed cells. The first line of evidence considers the experiments with conditioned media (CM) from chemo- and radioresistant cells, CAFs, MSCs, and CSCs that elevate resistance upon the ionizing radiation or anti-cancer drug exposure of previously untreated cells. The composition of CM revealed factors such as circular RNAs; interleukins; plasminogen activator inhibitor; and oncosome-shuttled lncRNAs, mRNAs, and miRNAs that aid in cellular communication and transmit signals inducing the chemo- and radioresistance of sensitive cancer cells. Data, demonstrating that radioresistant cancer cells become resistant to anti-neoplastic drug exposure and vice versa, are also discussed. The mechanisms driving the development of cross-resistance between chemotherapy and radiotherapy are highlighted. The secretion of resistance-mediating factors to intercellular fluid and blood brings attention to its diagnostic potential. Highly stable serum miRNA candidates were proposed by several studies as prognostic markers of radioresistance; however, clinical studies are needed to validate their utility. The ability to predict a treatment response with the help of the miRNA resistance status database will help with the selection of an effective therapeutic strategy. The possibility of miRNA-based therapy is currently being investigated with ongoing clinical studies, and such approaches can be used to alleviate resistance in oncology patients.

The Morphological Parameters and Cytosolic pH of Cells of Root Zones in Tobacco Plants (Nicotiana tabacum L.): Nonlinear Effects of NaCl Concentrations.

Salinity impacts important processes in plants, reducing their yield. The effect of salinity on the cytosolic pH (pHcyt) has been little studied. In this research, we employed transgenic tobacco plants expressing the pH sensor Pt-GFP to investigate the alterations in pHcyt in cells across various root zones. Furthermore, we examined a wide spectrum of NaCl concentrations (ranging from 0 to 150 mM) and assessed morphological parameters and plant development. Our findings revealed a pattern of cytosolic acidification in cells across all root zones at lower NaCl concentrations (50, 100 mM). Interestingly, at 150 mM NaCl, pHcyt levels either increased or returned to normal, indicating a nonlinear effect of salinity on pHcyt. Most studied parameters related to development and morphology exhibited an inhibitory influence in response to NaCl. Notably, a nonlinear relationship was observed in the cell length within the elongation and differentiation zones. While cell elongation occurred at 50 and 100 mM NaCl, it was not evident at 150 mM NaCl. This suggests a complex interplay between stimulating and inhibitory effects of salinity, contributing to the nonlinear relationship observed between pHcyt, cell length, and NaCl concentration.

Polyurethane/n-Octadecane Phase-Change Microcapsules via Emulsion Interfacial Polymerization: The Effect of Paraffin Loading on Capsule Shell Formation and Latent Heat Storage Properties.

Organic phase-change materials (PCMs) hold promise in developing advanced thermoregulation and responsive energy systems owing to their high latent heat capacity and thermal reliability. However, organic PCMs are prone to leakages in the liquid state and, thus, are hardly applicable in their pristine form. Herein, we encapsulated organic PCM n-Octadecane into polyurethane capsules via polymerization of commercially available polymethylene polyphenylene isocyanate and polyethylene glycol at the interface oil-in-water emulsion and studied how various n-Octadecane feeding affected the shell formation, capsule structure, and latent heat storage properties. The successful shell polymerization and encapsulation of n-Octadecane dissolved in the oil core was verified by confocal microscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The mean capsule size varied from 9.4 to 16.7 µm while the shell was found to reduce in thickness from 460 to 220 nm as the n-Octadecane feeding increased. Conversely, the latent heat storage capacity increased from 50 to 132 J/g corresponding to the growth in actual n-Octadecane content from 25% to 67% as revealed by differential scanning calorimetry. The actual n-Octadecane content increased non-linearly along with the n-Octadecane feeding and reached a plateau at 66-67% corresponded to 3.44-3.69 core-to-monomer ratio. Finally, the capsules with the reasonable combination of structural and thermal properties were evaluated as a thermoregulating additive to a commercially available paint.

The Role of Amino Acids in the Diagnosis, Risk Assessment, and Treatment of Breast Cancer: A Review.

This review summarizes the role of amino acids in the diagnosis, risk assessment, imaging, and treatment of breast cancer. It was shown that the content of individual amino acids changes in breast cancer by an average of 10-15% compared with healthy controls. For some amino acids (Thr, Arg, Met, and Ser), an increase in concentration is more often observed in breast cancer, and for others, a decrease is observed (Asp, Pro, Trp, and His). The accuracy of diagnostics using individual amino acids is low and increases when a number of amino acids are combined with each other or with other metabolites. Gln/Glu, Asp, Arg, Leu/Ile, Lys, and Orn have the greatest significance in assessing the risk of breast cancer. The variability in the amino acid composition of biological fluids was shown to depend on the breast cancer phenotype, as well as the age, race, and menopausal status of patients. In general, the analysis of changes in the amino acid metabolism in breast cancer is a promising strategy not only for diagnosis, but also for developing new therapeutic agents, monitoring the treatment process, correcting complications after treatment, and evaluating survival rates.

57Fe Mössbauer and DFT study of the electronic and spatial structures of the iron(II) (pseudo)clathrochelates: the effect of ligand field strength.

Combined experimental 57Fe Mössbauer and theoretical DFT study of a series of iron(II)-centered (pseudo)macrobicyclic analogs and homologs was performed. The field strength of the corresponding (pseudo)encapsulating ligand was found to affect both the spin state of a caged iron(II) ion and the electron density at its nucleus. In a row of the iron(II) tris-dioximates, passing from the non-macrocyclic complex to its monocapped pseudomacrobicyclic analog caused an increase both in the ligand field strength and in the electron density at the Fe2+ ion, and, therefore, a decrease in the isomer shift (IS) value (so-called "semiclathrochelate effect"). Its macrobicyclization, giving the quasiaromatic cage complex, caused a further increase in the two former parameters and a decrease in IS (so-called "macrobicyclic effect"). The trend of their IS values was successfully predicted using the performed quantum-chemical calculations and the corresponding linear correlation with the electron density at their 57Fe nuclei was plotted. A variety of different functionals can be successfully used for such excellent prediction. The slope of this correlation was found to be unaffected by the used functional. In contrast, the predictions of both the sign and the values of quadrupole splitting (QS) for them, based on the theoretical calculations of EFG tensors, were found to be a real great challenge, which could not be solved at the moment even in the case of these C3-pseudosymmetric iron(II) complexes with known XRD structures. The latter experimental data allowed us to deduce a sign of the QSs for them. The straightforwarded molecular design of a (pseudo)encapsulating ligand is proposed to control both the spin state and the redox characteristics of an encapsulated metal ion.

Production of Workpieces from Martensitic Stainless Steel Using Electron-Beam Surfacing and Investigation of Cutting Forces When Milling Workpieces.

The aim of this study was to investigate cutting force when milling 40 × 13 stainless steel samples obtained via electron-beam surfacing. The samples were obtained by surfacing the wire made from the martensitic 40 × 13 stainless steel. The microstructure of the samples and the hardness are discussed in the present study. Emphasis is placed on the study of cutting forces when handling the samples. The structure of the samples obtained by electron-beam surfacing consisted of tempered martensite. The average hardness of the samples was similar to the hardness obtained after quenching and tempering the samples-576 HV for horizontally printed workpieces and 525 HV for vertically printed workpieces. High-speed milling, high-efficiency milling, and conventional milling have been proven to be suitable for handling such workpieces. This study shows that an increase in milling width leads to a gradual decrease in specific cutting force. As the milling depth increases, the specific cutting force decreases intensively at first but then more slowly with time. Machining the workpieces made of the martensitic stainless steel and produced by electron-beam surfacing requires the use of purely carbide mills with a diameter of at least 12 mm. Using a high-speed steel as a tool material results in the rapid failure of the tool. The cutting conditions during the investigation allowed for a decrease in the temperature of the cutting edge, cutting force, and the low-rigid end mill bending. Therefore, this study has made it possible to select modes that allow for a reduction in the vibration of the lathe-fixture-tool-part system.
