This study presents a comprehensive machine learning-driven analysis to understand and predict the toxicity of nanoparticles (NPs), a crucial aspect in ensuring the safe application of nanotechnology in medicine, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and v...
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are highly effective carriers for gene therapies, including mRNA and siRNA delivery, due to their ability to transport nucleic acids across biological membranes, low cytotoxicity, improved pharmacokinetics, and scalability....
MOTIVATION: Predicting drug response is critical for precision medicine. Diverse methods have predicted drug responsiveness, as measured by the half-maximal drug inhibitory concentration (IC50), in cultured cells. Although IC50s are continuous, tradi...
CONTEXT: Traditionally, Hook. f. (Asteraceae) has been reported to be effective in cancer treatment which motivated the authors to explore the plant for novel anticancer compounds.
