Anti-photoaging effects of canola meal extract on human dermal fibroblasts against UVB-induced oxidative stress.

Canola meal, a by-product of canola oil processing, is a source of bioactive compounds that show antioxidant and skin anti-aging effects through upcycling (i.e., creative reuse). Here we describe the antioxidant and skin anti-aging effects of canola meal extract (CME) obtained by upcycling canola meal. The antioxidant capacity of CME is due in part to its antioxidative phenolics. Seven phenolics, ...

A deep learning-based drug repurposing screening and validation for anti-SARS-CoV-2 compounds by targeting the cell entry mechanism.

The recent outbreak of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been a severe threat to the global public health and economy, however, effective drugs to treat COVID-19 are still lacking. Here, we employ a deep learning-based drug repositioning strategy to systematically screen potential anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug candidates that tar...

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency with coinherited Gaucher disease: A rare association.

Anemia coexisting with Gaucher disease (GD) is often associated with non-hemolytic processes. Few cases of GD with autoimmune hemolytic anemia have be...

Interaction of systemic drugs causing ocular toxicity with organic cation transporter: an artificial intelligence prediction.

Chronic disease patients (cancer, arthritis, cardiovascular diseases) undergo long-term systemic drug treatment. Membrane transporters in ocular barri...

Deep learning to automatically evaluate HER2 gene amplification status from fluorescence in situ hybridization images.

Biologically Interpretable Deep Learning To Predict Response to Immunotherapy In Advanced Melanoma Using Mutations and Copy Number Variations.

Only 30-40% of advanced melanoma patients respond effectively to immunotherapy in clinical practice, so it is necessary to accurately identify the res...

Chat generative pre-trained transformer (ChatGPT): potential implications for rheumatology practice.

Deep learning-based assessment of knee septic arthritis using transformer features in sonographic modalities.

PURPOSE: Septic arthritis is an infectious disease. Conventionally, the diagnosis of septic arthritis can only be based on the identification of causa...

Anti-Biofilm: Machine Learning Assisted Prediction of IC Activity of Chemicals Against Biofilms of Microbes Causing Antimicrobial Resistance and Implications in Drug Repurposing.

Biofilms are one of the leading causes of antibiotic resistance. It acts as a physical barrier against the human immune system and drugs. The use of a...

A consensual machine-learning-assisted QSAR model for effective bioactivity prediction of xanthine oxidase inhibitors using molecular fingerprints.
