Anticancer activity of biologically synthesized silver and gold nanoparticles on mouse myoblast cancer cells and their toxicity against embryonic zebrafish.

Materials science & engineering. C, Materials for biological applications
The aim of this study was to evaluate the anticancer activity of bioinspired silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) against mouse myoblast cancer cells (CC). Both AgNPs and AuNPs were biologically synthesized using Spinacia olera...

Robust modelling of acute toxicity towards fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) using counter-propagation artificial neural networks and genetic algorithm.

SAR and QSAR in environmental research
Large worldwide use of chemicals has caused great concern about their possible adverse effects on human health, flora and fauna. Increased production of new chemicals has also increased demand for their risk assessment. Traditionally, results from an...

Cytotoxicity of chitosan/streptokinase nanoparticles as a function of size: An artificial neural networks study.

Nanomedicine : nanotechnology, biology, and medicine
Predicting the size and toxicity of chitosan/streptokinase nanoparticles at various values of processing parameters was the aim of this study. For the first time, a comprehensive model could be developed to determine the cytotoxicity of the nanoparti...

Probabilistic hazard assessment for skin sensitization potency by dose-response modeling using feature elimination instead of quantitative structure-activity relationships.

Journal of applied toxicology : JAT
Supervised learning methods promise to improve integrated testing strategies (ITS), but must be adjusted to handle high dimensionality and dose-response data. ITS approaches are currently fueled by the increasing mechanistic understanding of adverse ...

The potential of AOP networks for reproductive and developmental toxicity assay development.

Reproductive toxicology (Elmsford, N.Y.)
Historically, the prediction of reproductive and developmental toxicity has largely relied on the use of animals. The adverse outcome pathway (AOP) framework forms a basis for the development of new non-animal test methods. It also provides biologica...

Predicting in vitro assays related to liver function using probabilistic machine learning.

Toxicology
While machine learning has gained traction in toxicological assessments, the limited data availability requires the quantification of uncertainty of in silico predictions for reliable decision-making. This study addresses the challenge of predicting ...

Machine learning-driven nanoparticle toxicity.

Ecotoxicology and environmental safety
This study presents a comprehensive machine learning-driven analysis to understand and predict the toxicity of nanoparticles (NPs), a crucial aspect in ensuring the safe application of nanotechnology in medicine, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and v...

Development of an Interpretable Machine Learning Model for Neurotoxicity Prediction of Environmentally Related Compounds.

Environmental science & technology
The rising prevalence of nervous system disorders has become a significant global health challenge, with environmental pollutants identified as key contributors. However, the large number of environmental related compounds, combined with the low effi...

Developmental toxicity: artificial intelligence-powered assessments.

Trends in pharmacological sciences
Regulatory agencies require comprehensive toxicity testing for prenatal drug exposure, including new drugs in development, to reduce concerns about developmental toxicity, that is, drug-induced toxicity and adverse effects in pregnant women and fetus...

TIRESIA and TISBE: Explainable Artificial Intelligence Based Web Platforms for the Transparent Assessment of the Developmental Toxicity of Chemicals and Drugs.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Developmental toxicity is key human health endpoint, especially relevant for safeguarding maternal and child well-being. It is an object of increasing attention from international regulatory bodies such as the US EPA (US Environmental Protection Agen...
