Sustainable nanofiltration of industrial wastewater using waste-derived-graphene oxide-modified polyamide membranes: machine learning toward a smart portable water treatment unit.

Industrial wastewater treatment poses significant challenges because effluents vary in composition, containing dissolved salts, organic contaminants, and heavy metals. Nanofiltration (NF), employing thin-film composite (TFC) membranes, offers an energy-efficient separation platform capable of rejecting multivalent ions, organics, and dissolved metals. Here, graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized from...

Machine Learning and Molecular Modeling Reveal HDAC6 as a Key Target of Tanshinone IIA in Multiple Myeloma.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant blood cancer marked by severe bone destruction and immune microenvironment disruption. Yet relapse and drug resistance remain major clinical challenges. Tanshinone IIA (TIIA) exhibits potent antitumor activity, but its molecular targets and mechanisms in MM remain unclear. Here, we systematically elucidate TIIA's pharmacological mechanisms in MM using network p...

Machine learning identifies ac4C-related prognostic signature and TUBA1C as therapeutic target in COAD.

To explore the role of N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C)-related genes (acRGs) in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) and identify reliable prognostic biomarkers and p...
