Machine Learning for Drug-Target Interaction Prediction.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
Identifying drug-target interactions will greatly narrow down the scope of search of candidate medications, and thus can serve as the vital first step in drug discovery. Considering that in vitro experiments are extremely costly and time-consuming, h...

Identification of novel immune-relevant drug target genes for Alzheimer's Disease by combining ontology inference with network analysis.

CNS neuroscience & therapeutics
AIMS: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the leading causes of death in elderly people. Its pathogenesis is greatly associated with the abnormality of immune system. However, only a few immune-relevant AD drug target genes have been discovered up to ...

Cell-Like Micromotors.

Accounts of chemical research
In the past decade, versatile micro- and nanosized machines have emerged as active agents for large-scale detoxification, sensing, microfabrication, and many other promising applications. Micromachines have also been envisioned as the next advancemen...

A Capsule-Type Microrobot with Pick-and-Drop Motion for Targeted Drug and Cell Delivery.

Advanced healthcare materials
A capsule-type microrobot exhibits "pick-and-drop" (P&D) motion to hold a particle within a confined volume and transports it via a corkscrewing motion. The P&D motion is possible because the capsule-type microrobot has two parts: a plunger and a cap...

Aerosol delivery during spontaneous breathing with different types of nebulizers- in vitro/ex vivo models evaluation.

Pulmonary pharmacology & therapeutics
BACKGROUND: Nebulizers for spontaneous breathing have been evaluated through different study designs. There are limitations in simulated bench models related to patient and nebulizer factors. The aim of this study was to determine the correlation of ...

Enhanced antitumor efficacy of doxorubicin-encapsulated halloysite nanotubes.

International journal of nanomedicine
To improve the antitumor efficacy of doxorubicin (DOX) and provide novel clinical treatment of gastric cancer, halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) loaded with DOX were encapsulated by soybean phospholipid (LIP) and the formed HNTs/DOX/LIP was systematically ...

Toltrazuril mixed nanomicelle delivery system based on sodium deoxycholate-Brij C20 polyethylene ether-triton x100: Characterization, solubility, and bioavailability study.

Colloids and surfaces. B, Biointerfaces
Toltrazuril (Tol) is a broad-spectrum anticoccidiosis drug that is widely used in the prevention and treatment of coccidiosis infection in poultry and mammals. However, the drug has poor aqueous solubility (25 °C, 0.41 μg/mL), and its dose escalation...

Drug target ontology to classify and integrate drug discovery data.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: One of the most successful approaches to develop new small molecule therapeutics has been to start from a validated druggable protein target. However, only a small subset of potentially druggable targets has attracted significant research...

Demystifying Multitask Deep Neural Networks for Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Deep neural networks (DNNs) are complex computational models that have found great success in many artificial intelligence applications, such as computer vision1,2 and natural language processing.3,4 In the past four years, DNNs have also generated p...

Medical capsule robots: A renaissance for diagnostics, drug delivery and surgical treatment.

Journal of controlled release : official journal of the Controlled Release Society
The advancements in electronics and the progress in nanotechnology have resulted in path breaking development that will transform the way diagnosis and treatment are carried out currently. This development is Medical Capsule Robots, which has emerged...
