We introduce here ML4Tox, a framework offering Deep Learning and Support Vector Machine models to predict agonist, antagonist, and binding activities of chemical compounds, in this case for the estrogen receptor ligand-binding domain. The ML4Tox mode...
CONTEXT: Chemical toxicity prediction at early stage drug discovery phase has been researched for years, and newest methods are always investigated. Research data comprising chemical physicochemical properties, toxicity, assay, and activity details c...

The nuclear androgen receptor (AR) is one of the most relevant biological targets of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs), which produce adverse effects by interfering with hormonal regulation and endocrine system functioning. This paper describes n...
Human well-being can be affected by exposure to several chemicals in the environment. One such group is endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) that can perturb the hormonal homeostasis leading to adverse health effects. In this work, we have developed...
Over 80,000 endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are considered emerging contaminants (ECs), which are of great concern due to their effects on human health. Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models are a promising alternative to i...

As defined by the World Health Organization, an endocrine disruptor is an exogenous substance or mixture that alters function(s) of the endocrine system and consequently causes adverse health effects in an intact organism, its progeny, or (sub)popula...

This paper aims to identify structural motifs within a molecule that contribute the most toward a chemical being an endocrine disruptor. We have developed a deep neural network-based toolkit toward this aim. The trained model can virtually assess a s...
In our previous studies, it was found that graphene oxide (GO) reduced the endocrine disruption of bisphenol A (BPA) in zebrafish embryo and larvae, but through different mechanisms. In this study, adult male zebrafish were selected to further unders...
Bisphenol AF (BPAF) is an emerging contaminant prevalent in the environment as one of main substitutes of bisphenol A (BPA). It was found that BPAF exhibited estrogenic effects in zebrafish larvae in our previous study, while little is known about it...
