The classification of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3 inhibitors is essential for identifying potential antiviral agents through computational methods. This study aims to develop an optimized machine learning (ML) model using random forest (RF) and molec...
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are attractive candidates to combat antibiotic resistance for their capability to target biomembranes and restrict a wide range of pathogens. It is a daunting challenge to discover novel AMPs due to their sparse distribu...
BACKGROUND: While the COVID-19 pandemic has induced massive discussion of available medications on social media, traditional studies focused only on limited aspects, such as public opinions, and endured reporting biases, inefficiency, and long collec...
INTRODUCTION: Valganciclovir, a prodrug of ganciclovir (GCV), is used to prevent cytomegalovirus infection after transplantation, with doses adjusted based on creatinine clearance (CrCL) to target GCV AUC0-24 h of 40-60 mg*h/L. This sometimes leads t...
Interferon (IFN) is a pivotal agent against hepatitis B virus (HBV) in clinic, but there is a lack of accurate biomarkers to predict the response to IFN therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Our study aimed to investigate potential targ...
