Drugs Resistance Analysis from Scarce Health Records via Multi-task Graph Representation [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Clinicians prescribe antibiotics by looking at the patient's health record with an experienced eye. However, the therapy might be rendered futile if the patient has drug resistance. Determining drug resistance requires time-consuming laboratory-level testing while applying clinicians' heuristics in an automated way is difficult due to the categorical ...

The Impact of Competition Between Cancer Cells and Healthy Cells on Optimal Drug Delivery [PDF]
, 2018 Cell competition is recognized to be instrumental to the dynamics and structure of the tumor-host interface in invasive cancers. In mild competition scenarios, the healthy tissue and cancer cells can coexist. When the competition is aggressive, competitive cells, the so called super-competitors, expand by killing other cells.

Glycosphingolipids and drug resistance
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2006 Drug resistance, an all too frequent characteristic of cancer, represents a serious barrier to successful treatment. Although many resistance mechanisms have been described, those that involve membrane-resident proteins belonging to the ABC (ATP binding cassette) transporter superfamily are of particular interest.

ALNSynergy: a graph convolutional network with multi-representation alignment for drug synergy prediction [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Drug combination refers to the use of two or more drugs to treat a specific disease at the same time. It is currently the mainstream way to treat complex diseases. Compared with single drugs, drug combinations have better efficacy and can better inhibit toxicity and drug resistance.
