The prediction of microRNA-disease associations (MDAs) is crucial for understanding disease mechanisms and biomarker discovery. While graph neural networks have emerged as promising tools for MDA prediction, existing methods face critical limitations...
BACKGROUND: Gene expression analysis is a crucial tool for uncovering the biological mechanisms that underlie differences between patient subgroups, offering insights that can inform clinical decisions. However, despite its potential, gene expression...
Small cyclic peptides have gained significant traction as a therapeutic modality; however, the development of deep learning methods for accurately designing such peptides has been slow, mostly due to the lack of sufficiently large training sets. Here...
Understanding chemical-protein interactions (CPIs) is crucial for drug discovery and biological research, yet their complexity often challenges traditional methods. We propose TCoCPIn, a novel framework integrating graph neural networks (GNN) with th...

BACKGROUND: Thrombus formation is a severe complication in orthopedic surgery, significantly increasing mortality in patients with fractures. Therefore, identifying feature genes to determine thrombus presence in fracture surgeries is critical.
Vaccine discovery against eukaryotic parasites is not trivial and few exist. Reverse vaccinology is an in silico vaccine discovery approach, designed to identify vaccine candidates from the thousands of protein sequences encoded by a target genome. P...
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and Major depressive disorder (MDD) act as risk factors for each other, and the comorbidity of both significantly increases the all-cause mortality rate. Therefore, studying the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes with...
Genome architecture in eukaryotes exhibits a high degree of complexity. Amidst the numerous intricacies, the existence of genes as non-continuous stretches composed of exons and introns has garnered significant attention and curiosity among researche...
We use open source human gut microbiome data to learn a microbial "language" model by adapting techniques from Natural Language Processing (NLP). Our microbial "language" model is trained in a self-supervised fashion (i.e., without additional externa...
