Deprenyl, an old drug with new anticancer potential: Mini review [PDF]
The anticancer potential of monoamine oxidase (MAO) was observed in pre-clinical assays conducted with cell cultures and animals. L-Deprenyl (DEP) causes apoptosis in melanoma, leukemia and mammary cells. High-dose DEP has shown toxicity in mammary and pituitary cancers, as well as in monoblastic leukemia, in rats.

An Efficient Consolidation of Word Embedding and Deep Learning Techniques for Classifying Anticancer Peptides: FastText+BiLSTM [PDF]
Anticancer peptides (ACPs) are a group of peptides that exhibite antineoplastic properties. The utilization of ACPs in cancer prevention can present a viable substitute for conventional cancer therapeutics, as they possess a higher degree of selectivity and safety.

Hypericin: Single molecule spectroscopy of an active natural ingredient [PDF]
Hypericin can be found in nature in Hypericum perforatum (St. John's Wort) and has become subject of intense biochemical research. Studies report of antidepressive, antineoplastic, antitumor and antiviral activity of hypericin. Among the variety of potential applications hypericin can be used as photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy (PDT), where it ...

Improving of Robotic Virtual Agent's errors that are accepted by reaction and human's preference [PDF]
One way to improve the relationship between humans and anthropomorphic agents is to have humans empathize with the agents. In this study, we focused on a task between an agent and a human in which the agent makes a mistake. To investigate significant factors for designing a robotic agent that can promote humans empathy, we experimentally examined the ...
