Therapeutic target discovery using Boolean network attractors: avoiding pathological phenotypes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Target identification, one of the steps of drug discovery, aims at identifying biomolecules whose function should be therapeutically altered in order to cure the considered pathology.

Asynchronous Control of Stochastic Switched Boolean Control Networks With Piecewise-Homogeneous Dwell Time

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, 2021
In this article, the $l_{1}$ -induced performance of the stochastic switched Boolean control network (BCN) is investigated. The switched signal is considered to follow a time-varying probability distribution, the switching of which is considered to have

Symmetry in Critical Random Boolean Network Dynamics

open access: yes, 2014
Using Boolean networks as prototypical examples, the role of symmetry in the dynamics of heterogeneous complex systems is explored. We show that symmetry of the dynamics, especially in critical states, is a controlling feature that can be used both to ...

Statistical control of structural networks with limited interventions to minimize cellular phenotypic diversity represented by point attractors

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The underlying genetic networks of cells give rise to diverse behaviors known as phenotypes. Control of this cellular phenotypic diversity (CPD) may reveal key targets that govern differentiation during development or drug resistance in cancer. This work

Understanding communication signals during mycobacterial latency through predicted genome-wide protein interactions and boolean modeling. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
About 90% of the people infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis carry latent bacteria that are believed to get activated upon immune suppression. One of the fundamental challenges in the control of tuberculosis is therefore to understand molecular ...

Dynamical methods for target control of biological networks

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Estimating the influence that individual nodes have on one another in a Boolean network is essential to predict and control the system’s dynamical behaviour, for example, detecting key therapeutic targets to control pathways in models of biological ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

The number and probability of canalizing functions

open access: yes, 2003
Canalizing functions have important applications in physics and biology. For example, they represent a mechanism capable of stabilizing chaotic behavior in Boolean network models of discrete dynamical systems.

Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan‐Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Edible electronics needs integrated logic circuits for computation and control. This work presents a potentially edible printed chitosan‐gated transistor with a design optimized for integration in circuits. Its implementation in integrated logic gates and circuits operating at low voltage (0.7 V) is demonstrated, as well as the compatibility with an ...
