Social behavioral profiling by unsupervised deep learning reveals a stimulative effect of dopamine D3 agonists on zebrafish sociality.

Cell reports methods
It has been a major challenge to systematically evaluate and compare how pharmacological perturbations influence social behavioral outcomes. Although some pharmacological agents are known to alter social behavior, precise description and quantificati...

Computational Predictions of Nonclinical Pharmacokinetics at the Drug Design Stage.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Although computational predictions of pharmacokinetics (PK) are desirable at the drug design stage, existing approaches are often limited by prediction accuracy and human interpretability. Using a discovery data set of mouse and rat PK studies at Roc...

Artificial intelligence-driven identification of morin analogues acting as Ca1.2 channel blockers: Synthesis and biological evaluation.

Bioorganic chemistry
Morin is a vasorelaxant flavonoid, whose activity is ascribable to Ca1.2 channel blockade that, however, is weak as compared to that of clinically used therapeutic agents. A conventional strategy to circumvent this drawback is to synthesize new deriv...

Quantification and comparison of the regional acceleratory phenomenon in bone following piezosurgery or bur osteotomy: A pilot study in rats.

Clinical and experimental dental research
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: The Regional Acceleratory Phenomenon (RAP) can be induced surgically via decortication (selective cortical penetrations) of bone to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement. Few studies have compared the impact and efficiency of di...

Environmental toxicity risk evaluation of nitroaromatic compounds: Machine learning driven binary/multiple classification and design of safe alternatives.

Food and chemical toxicology : an international journal published for the British Industrial Biological Research Association
Nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) represent a significant source of organic pollutants in the environment. In this study, a well-rounded dataset containing 371 NACs with rat oral median lethal doses (LD) was developed. Based on the dataset, binary and m...

Integration of velocity-dependent spatio-temporal structure of place cell activation during navigation in a reservoir model of prefrontal cortex.

Biological cybernetics
Sequential behavior unfolds both in space and in time. The same spatial trajectory can be realized in different manners in the same overall time by changing instantaneous speeds. The current research investigates how speed profiles might be given beh...

Development of non-bias phenotypic drug screening for cardiomyocyte hypertrophy by image segmentation using deep learning.

Biochemical and biophysical research communications
The number of patients with heart failure and related deaths is rapidly increasing worldwide, making it a major problem. Cardiac hypertrophy is a crucial preliminary step in heart failure, but its treatment has not yet been fully successful. In this ...

Deep Learning-Based Segmentation of Morphologically Distinct Rat Hippocampal Reactive Astrocytes After Trimethyltin Exposure.

Toxicologic pathology
As regulators of homeostasis, astrocytes undergo morphological changes after injury to limit the insult in central nervous system (CNS). Trimethyltin (TMT) is a known neurotoxicant that induces reactive astrogliosis in rat CNS. To evaluate the degree...

In Silico Prediction of Human and Rat Liver Microsomal Stability via Machine Learning Methods.

Chemical research in toxicology
Liver microsomal stability is an important property considered for the screening of drug candidates in the early stage of drug development. Determination of hepatic metabolic stability can be performed by an in vitro assay, but it requires quite a fe...

Danshao Shugan Granule therapy for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Lipids in health and disease
BACKGROUND: Danshao Shugan Granules (DSSG), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), is given to protect the liver. The objective is to evaluate the mechanisms of the effects of DSSG on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
