Validating linalool as a potential drug for breast cancer treatment based on machine learning and molecular docking.

Breast cancer (BC) is a common cancer for women. This study aims to construct a prognostic risk model of BC and identify prognostic biomarkers through machine learning approaches, and clarify the mechanism by which linalool exerts tumor-suppressive function. Three mRNA microarray/RNA sequencing data sets (GSE25055, GSE103091, and TCGA-BRCA) were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus database and T...

Unravelling the metabolic landscape of cutaneous melanoma: Insights from single-cell sequencing analysis and machine learning for prognostic assessment of lactate metabolism.

This manuscript presents a comprehensive investigation into the role of lactate metabolism-related genes as potential prognostic markers in skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM). Bulk-transcriptome data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and GSE19234, GSE22153, and GSE65904 cohorts from GEO database were processed and harmonized to mitigate batch effects. Lactate metabolism scores were assigned to indiv...
