Hepatitis C, a particularly dangerous form of viral hepatitis caused by hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, is a major socio-economic and public health problem. Due to the rapid development of deep learning, it has become a common practice to apply de...
IMPORTANCE: The opioid crisis has increasingly affected pregnant people and infants. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections, a known complication of opioid use, grew in parallel with opioid-related complications; however, the literature informing individ...

Fast and accurate identification of inhibitors with potency against HCV NS5B polymerase is currently a challenging task. As conventional experimental methods is the gold standard method for the design and development of new HCV inhibitors, they often...
INTRODUCTION: Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is highly infectious with no currently available vaccine. Prior to treatment, it is recommended to confirm HCV infection with either quantitative or qualitative nucleic acid test. Access to these assays in Nigeri...
To greatly expand the druggable genome, fast and accurate predictions of cryptic sites for small molecules binding in target proteins are in high demand. In this study, we have developed a fast and simple conformational sampling scheme guided by norm...
Previously, our group predicted commercially available Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drugs that can inhibit each step of the replication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) using a deep learning-based drug-ta...
Several European countries have established criteria for prioritising initiation of treatment in patients infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) by grouping patients according to clinical characteristics. Based on neural network techniques, our ob...
