Combining feature selection and shape analysis uncovers precise rules for miRNA regulation in Huntington's disease mice.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: MicroRNA (miRNA) regulation is associated with several diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases. Several approaches can be used for modeling miRNA regulation. However, their precision may be limited for analyzing multidimensional da...

Harnessing big 'omics' data and AI for drug discovery in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Nature reviews. Gastroenterology & hepatology
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of primary adult liver cancer. After nearly a decade with sorafenib as the only approved treatment, multiple new agentsĀ have demonstrated efficacy in clinical trials, including the targeted thera...

Deep learning enables pathologist-like scoring of NASH models.

Scientific reports
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and the progressive form of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are diseases of major importance with a high unmet medical need. Efficacy studies on novel compounds to treat NAFLD/NASH using disease models a...

Data-driven analyses of motor impairments in animal models of neurological disorders.

PLoS biology
Behavior provides important insights into neuronal processes. For example, analysis of reaching movements can give a reliable indication of the degree of impairment in neurological disorders such as stroke, Parkinson disease, or Huntington disease. T...

Multi-resolution convolutional neural networks for fully automated segmentation of acutely injured lungs in multiple species.

Medical image analysis
Segmentation of lungs with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a challenging task due to diffuse opacification in dependent regions which results in little to no contrast at the lung boundary. For segmentation of severely injured lungs, loc...

Deep learning of spontaneous arousal fluctuations detects early cholinergic defects across neurodevelopmental mouse models and patients.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Neurodevelopmental spectrum disorders like autism (ASD) are diagnosed, on average, beyond age 4 y, after multiple critical periods of brain development close and behavioral intervention becomes less effective. This raises the urgent need for quantita...

Modelling disease risk for amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis in non-human primates using machine learning.

Amyloid : the international journal of experimental and clinical investigation : the official journal of the International Society of Amyloidosis
Amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis is found in humans and non-human primates, but quantifying disease risk prior to clinical symptoms is challenging. We applied machine learning to identify the best predictors of amyloidosis in rhesus macaques from availabl...

Real-time analysis of the behaviour of groups of mice via a depth-sensing camera and machine learning.

Nature biomedical engineering
Preclinical studies of psychiatric disorders use animal models to investigate the impact of environmental factors or genetic mutations on complex traits such as decision-making and social interactions. Here, we introduce a method for the real-time an...

Refining humane endpoints in mouse models of disease by systematic review and machine learning-based endpoint definition.

ALTEX
Ideally, humane endpoints allow for early termination of experiments by minimizing an animal's discomfort, distress and pain, while ensuring that scientific objectives are reached. Yet, lack of commonly agreed methodology and heterogeneity of cut-off...

Exon level machine learning analyses elucidate novel candidate miRNA targets in an avian model of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder.

PLoS computational biology
Gestational alcohol exposure causes fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) and is a prominent cause of neurodevelopmental disability. Whole transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq) offer insights into mechanisms underlying FASD, but gene-level analysis pro...
