AI-driven Alternative Medicine: A Novel Approach to Drug Discovery and Repurposing [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
AIAltMed is a cutting-edge platform designed for drug discovery and repurposing. It utilizes Tanimoto similarity to identify structurally similar non-medicinal compounds to known medicinal ones. This preprint introduces AIAltMed, discusses the concept of `AI-driven alternative medicine,' evaluates Tanimoto similarity's advantages and limitations, and ...

Estimating Individualized Treatment Rules for Ordinal Treatments [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Precision medicine is an emerging scientific topic for disease treatment and prevention that takes into account individual patient characteristics. It is an important direction for clinical research, and many statistical methods have been recently proposed. One of the primary goals of precision medicine is to obtain an optimal individual treatment rule

The accumulation of myeloid‐derived suppressor cells participates in abdominal infection‐induced tumor progression through the PD‐L1/PD‐1 axis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study explores how sepsis affects GC progression by creating an immunosuppressive environment. Our findings reveal that sepsis promotes immune dysregulation, enhancing tumor growth and metastasis. Targeting the PD‐1/PD‐L1 pathway with monoclonal antibodies shows potential for restoring immune function and improving outcomes in cancer patients ...

The PTTG1/VASP axis promotes oral squamous cell carcinoma metastasis by modulating focal adhesion and actin filaments

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
VASP was found to be overexpressed in metastatic oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tissues. Notably, PTTG1‐ and VASP‐deficient OSCC cells demonstrated suppressed metastatic properties by disrupting the interaction between the cytoskeleton and focal adhesion (FAs) in the filopodia region.

Random Forests of Interaction Trees for Estimating Individualized Treatment Effects in Randomized Trials [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 37(17): 2547-2560, 2018, 2017
Assessing heterogeneous treatment effects has become a growing interest in advancing precision medicine. Individualized treatment effects (ITE) play a critical role in such an endeavor. Concerning experimental data collected from randomized trials, we put forward a method, termed random forests of interaction trees (RFIT), for estimating ITE on the ...

Addressing persistent challenges in digital image analysis of cancer tissue: resources developed from a hackathon

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Large multidimensional digital images of cancer tissue are becoming prolific, but many challenges exist to automatically extract relevant information from them using computational tools. We describe publicly available resources that have been developed jointly by expert and non‐expert computational biologists working together during a virtual hackathon

A Sequential Density-Based Empirical Likelihood Ratio Test for Treatment Effects [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine (2019), 2018
In health-related experiments, treatment effects can be identified using paired data that consist of pre- and post-treatment measurements. In this framework, sequential testing strategies are widely accepted statistical tools in practice. Since performances of parametric sequential testing procedures vitally depend on the validity of the parametric ...

Hepatoprotective activity of aqueous-methanolic extract of Suaeda fruticosa in paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity in rabbits

open access: yesBangladesh Journal of Pharmacology, 2013
In the present study, we evaluated the protective effects of the aqueous-methanolic extract of Suaeda fruticosa (500 mg/kg and 750 mg/kg b.w., p.o) against paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity in rabbits.  Silymarin 100 mg/kg, p.o.
