Abstract
Predicting the activities of new compounds against biophysical or phenotypic assays based on the known activities of one or a few existing compounds is a common goal in early stage drug discovery. This problem can be cast as a "few-shot learning" challenge, and prior studies have developed few-shot learning methods to classify compounds as active versus inactive. However, the ability to go beyond classification and rank compounds by expected affinity is more valuable. We describe Few-Shot Compound Activity Prediction (FS-CAP), a novel neural architecture trained on a large bioactivity data set to predict compound activities against an assay outside the training set, based on only the activities of a few known compounds against the same assay. Our model aggregates encodings generated from the known compounds and their activities to capture assay information and uses a separate encoder for the new compound whose activity is to be predicted. The new method provides encouraging results relative to traditional chemical-similarity-based techniques as well as other state-of-the-art few-shot learning methods in tests on a variety of ligand-based drug discovery settings and data sets. The code for FS-CAP is available at https://github.com/Rose-STL-Lab/FS-CAP.

Chem Res Toxicol 2024; 37:827-849. [PMID: 38758610 PMCID: PMC11187637 DOI: 10.1021/acs.chemrestox.3c00352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
The attrition rate of drugs in clinical trials is generally quite high, with estimates suggesting that approximately 90% of drugs fail to make it through the process. The identification of unexpected toxicity issues during preclinical stages is a significant factor contributing to this high rate of failure. These issues can have a major impact on the success of a drug and must be carefully considered throughout the development process. These late-stage rejections or withdrawals of drug candidates significantly increase the costs associated with drug development, particularly when toxicity is detected during clinical trials or after market release. Understanding drug-biological target interactions is essential for evaluating compound toxicity and safety, as well as predicting therapeutic effects and potential off-target effects that could lead to toxicity. This will enable scientists to predict and assess the safety profiles of drug candidates more accurately. Evaluation of toxicity and safety is a critical aspect of drug development, and biomolecules, particularly proteins, play vital roles in complex biological networks and often serve as targets for various chemicals. Therefore, a better understanding of these interactions is crucial for the advancement of drug development. The development of computational methods for evaluating protein-ligand interactions and predicting toxicity is emerging as a promising approach that adheres to the 3Rs principles (replace, reduce, and refine) and has garnered significant attention in recent years. In this review, we present a thorough examination of the latest breakthroughs in drug toxicity prediction, highlighting the significance of drug-target binding affinity in anticipating and mitigating possible adverse effects. In doing so, we aim to contribute to the development of more effective and secure drugs.

Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a highly lethal malignant tumor. While the involvement of multiple mRNAs in the progression of LUAD is well established, the potential diagnostic value of immune-related mRNAs (irmRNAs) in LUAD remains largely unexplored. In this study, we utilized RNA-seq, clinical data, and immune-related gene information from LUAD patients to identify differentially expressed immune-related mRNAs (DEirmRNAs) and developed a predictive risk model based on specific DEirmRNA pairs closely linked with patient prognosis. We classified patients into high-risk and low-risk groups and analyzed factors such as survival rate, clinical characteristics, gene enrichment, immune cell infiltration, tumor mutation load, and drug susceptibility. We confirmed the expression levels of these DEirmRNAs in tumor tissues using qRT-PCR assay. Our results showed that the low-risk group had a longer survival time and lower tumor mutation burden (TMB) and microsatellite instability (MSI) compared to the high-risk group. The high-risk group also had a significant reduction in the number of certain immune cells and a lower half-maximum inhibitor concentration (IC50). We identified specific DEirmRNA pairs that were up-regulated or down-regulated in tumor tissues compared to adjacent tissues. Our prognostic risk model based on DEirmRNA pairs could be used to predict the prognosis of LUAD patients and provide reference for better treatment.

Abstract
Cancer is a heterogeneous disease in that tumors of the same histology type can respond differently to a treatment. Anti-cancer drug response prediction is of paramount importance for both drug development and patient treatment design. Although various computational methods and data have been used to develop drug response prediction models, it remains a challenging problem due to the complexities of cancer mechanisms and cancer-drug interactions. To better characterize the interaction between cancer and drugs, we investigate the feasibility of integrating computationally derived features of molecular mechanisms of action into prediction models. Specifically, we add docking scores of drug molecules and target proteins in combination with cancer gene expressions and molecular drug descriptors for building response models. The results demonstrate a marginal improvement in drug response prediction performance when adding docking scores as additional features, through tests on large drug screening data. We discuss the limitations of the current approach and provide the research community with a baseline dataset of the large-scale computational docking for anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract
Cancer claims millions of lives yearly worldwide. While many therapies have been made available in recent years, by in large cancer remains unsolved. Exploiting computational predictive models to study and treat cancer holds great promise in improving drug development and personalized design of treatment plans, ultimately suppressing tumors, alleviating suffering, and prolonging lives of patients. A wave of recent papers demonstrates promising results in predicting cancer response to drug treatments while utilizing deep learning methods. These papers investigate diverse data representations, neural network architectures, learning methodologies, and evaluations schemes. However, deciphering promising predominant and emerging trends is difficult due to the variety of explored methods and lack of standardized framework for comparing drug response prediction models. To obtain a comprehensive landscape of deep learning methods, we conducted an extensive search and analysis of deep learning models that predict the response to single drug treatments. A total of 61 deep learning-based models have been curated, and summary plots were generated. Based on the analysis, observable patterns and prevalence of methods have been revealed. This review allows to better understand the current state of the field and identify major challenges and promising solution paths.

Abstract
Modern oncology offers a wide range of treatments and therefore choosing the best option for particular patient is very important for optimal outcome. Multi-omics profiling in combination with AI-based predictive models have great potential for streamlining these treatment decisions. However, these encouraging developments continue to be hampered by very high dimensionality of the datasets in combination with insufficiently large numbers of annotated samples. Here we proposed a novel deep learning-based method to predict patient-specific anticancer drug response from three types of multi-omics data. The proposed DeepInsight-3D approach relies on structured data-to-image conversion that then allows use of convolutional neural networks, which are particularly robust to high dimensionality of the inputs while retaining capabilities to model highly complex relationships between variables. Of particular note, we demonstrate that in this formalism additional channels of an image can be effectively used to accommodate data from different omics layers while implicitly encoding the connection between them. DeepInsight-3D was able to outperform other state-of-the-art methods applied to this task. The proposed improvements can facilitate the development of better personalized treatment strategies for different cancers in the future.

Abstract
Lung cancer is a major cause of cancer deaths worldwide, and has a very low survival rate. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the largest subset of lung cancers, which accounts for about 85% of all cases. It has been well established that a mutation in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) can lead to lung cancer. EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) are developed to target the kinase domain of EGFR. These TKIs produce promising results at the initial stage of therapy, but the efficacy becomes limited due to the development of drug resistance. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview of computational methods, for understanding drug resistance mechanisms. The important EGFR mutants and the different generations of EGFR-TKIs, with the survival and response rates are discussed. Next, we evaluate the role of important EGFR parameters in drug resistance mechanism, including structural dynamics, hydrogen bonds, stability, dimerization, binding free energies, and signaling pathways. Personalized drug resistance prediction models, drug response curve, drug synergy, and other data-driven methods are also discussed. Recent advancements in deep learning; such as AlphaFold2, deep generative models, big data analytics, and the applications of statistics and permutation are also highlighted. We explore limitations in the current methodologies, and discuss strategies to overcome them. We believe this review will serve as a reference for researchers; to apply computational techniques for precision medicine, analyzing structures of protein-drug complexes, drug discovery, and understanding the drug response and resistance mechanisms in lung cancer patients.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignant tumors with high mortality. Accurate diagnosis and treatment decisions for GC rely heavily on human experts' careful judgments on medical images. However, the improvement of the accuracy is hindered by imaging conditions, limited experience, objective criteria, and inter-observer discrepancies. Recently, the developments of machine learning, especially deep-learning algorithms, have been facilitating computers to extract more information from data automatically. Researchers are exploring the far-reaching applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in various clinical practices, including GC. Herein, we aim to provide a broad framework to summarize current research on AI in GC. In the screening of GC, AI can identify precancerous diseases and assist in early cancer detection with endoscopic examination and pathological confirmation. In the diagnosis of GC, AI can support tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging and subtype classification. For treatment decisions, AI can help with surgical margin determination and prognosis prediction. Meanwhile, current approaches are challenged by data scarcity and poor interpretability. To tackle these problems, more regulated data, unified processing procedures, and advanced algorithms are urgently needed to build more accurate and robust AI models for GC.

Antiproliferative Activity Predictor: A New Reliable In Silico Tool for Drug Response Prediction against NCI60 Panel. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232214374.

Abstract
In vitro antiproliferative assays still represent one of the most important tools in the anticancer drug discovery field, especially to gain insights into the mechanisms of action of anticancer small molecules. The NCI-DTP (National Cancer Institute Developmental Therapeutics Program) undoubtedly represents the most famous project aimed at rapidly testing thousands of compounds against multiple tumor cell lines (NCI60). The large amount of biological data stored in the National Cancer Institute (NCI) database and many other databases has led researchers in the fields of computational biology and medicinal chemistry to develop tools to predict the anticancer properties of new agents in advance. In this work, based on the available antiproliferative data collected by the NCI and the manipulation of molecular descriptors, we propose the new in silico Antiproliferative Activity Predictor (AAP) tool to calculate the GI50 values of input structures against the NCI60 panel. This ligand-based protocol, validated by both internal and external sets of structures, has proven to be highly reliable and robust. The obtained GI50 values of a test set of 99 structures present an error of less than ±1 unit. The AAP is more powerful for GI50 calculation in the range of 4-6, showing that the results strictly correlate with the experimental data. The encouraging results were further supported by the examination of an in-house database of curcumin analogues that have already been studied as antiproliferative agents. The AAP tool identified several potentially active compounds, and a subsequent evaluation of a set of molecules selected by the NCI for the one-dose/five-dose antiproliferative assays confirmed the great potential of our protocol for the development of new anticancer small molecules. The integration of the AAP tool in the free web service DRUDIT provides an interesting device for the discovery and/or optimization of anticancer drugs to the medicinal chemistry community. The training set will be updated with new NCI-tested compounds to cover more chemical spaces, activities, and cell lines. Currently, the same protocol is being developed for predicting the TGI (total growth inhibition) and LC50 (median lethal concentration) parameters to estimate toxicity profiles of small molecules.

Abstract
Deep learning produces a remarkable performance in various applications such as image classification and speech recognition. However, state-of-the-art deep neural networks require a large number of weights and enormous computation power, which results in a bottleneck of efficiency for edge-device applications. To resolve these problems, deep spiking neural networks (DSNNs) have been proposed, given the specialized synapse and neuron hardware. In this work, the hardware neuromorphic system of DSNNs with gated Schottky diodes was investigated. Gated Schottky diodes have a near-linear conductance response, which can easily implement quantized weights in synaptic devices. Based on modeling of synaptic devices, two-layer fully connected neural networks are trained by off-chip learning. The adaptation of a neuron's threshold is proposed to reduce the accuracy degradation caused by the conversion from analog neural networks (ANNs) to event-driven DSNNs. Using left-justified rate coding as an input encoding method enables low-latency classification. The effect of device variation and noisy images to the classification accuracy is investigated. The time-to-first-spike (TTFS) scheme can significantly reduce power consumption by reducing the number of firing spikes compared to a max-firing scheme.

J Clin Lab Anal 2022; 36:e24722. [PMID: 36181275 DOI: 10.1002/jcla.24722] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 09/20/2022] [Accepted: 09/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most prevalent malignant tumors of the head and neck and presents high risks of recurrence and poor prognosis postoperatively. The aim of this study was to establish a predictive model based on fatty acid metabolism (FAM) genes to forecast the prognosis of HNSCC patients and the subsequent treatment strategies. METHODS We accessed the TCGA and GEO databases for HNSCC genes and clinical data. The FAM risk score model was created and validated using a combination of univariate Cox analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis. Combining risk scores and clinical characteristics, a nomogram was established and assessed. Subsequently, the function, gene mutation, immune difference, and chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity of the groups with high- and low-risk scores were analyzed. Consequently, the mode's validity was evaluated comprehensively by combining single gene analysis. RESULTS The FAM risk score model for predicting HNSCC prognosis had certain validity. Patients in the high- and low-risk groups had genetic mutations, and the prognosis was the poorest for the high-risk groups with high genetic mutations. The patients with low-risk scores were suitable for immunotherapy since they had increased infiltration of immune cells. In contrast, the patients in the other groups were more suitable for chemotherapy. CONCLUSION The results of this study demonstrated that the FAM risk score model may predict the prognosis of HSNCC and has a certain therapeutic guidance value.

Abstract
Drug potency assessment plays a crucial role in cancer chemotherapy. The selection of appropriate chemotherapy drugs can reduce the impact on the patient's physical condition and achieve a better therapeutic effect. Various methods have been used to achieve in vitro drug susceptibility assays, but there are few studies on calculating morphology and texture parameters quantitatively based on phase imaging for drug potency assessment. In this study, digital holography microscopy was used to get phase imaging of ovarian cancer cells after adding three different drugs, namely, Cisplatin, Adriamycin, and 5-fluorouracil. Based on the reconstructed phase imaging, four parameters of ovarian cancer cells changed with time, such as the average height, projected area, cluster shade, and entropy, were calculated. And the half-inhibitory concentration of cells under the effect of different drugs was calculated according to these four parameters. The half-inhibitory concentration, which can directly reflect the drug potency, is associated with the morphological and texture features extracted from phase images by numerical fitting. So, a new method for calculating the half-inhibitory concentration was proposed. The result shows that the morphological and texture feature parameters can be used to evaluate the sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to different drugs by fitting the half-inhibitory concentration numerically. And the result provides a new idea for drug potency assessment methods before chemotherapy for ovarian cancer.

[PMID: 35715463 PMCID: PMC9205943 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-14266-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2021] [Accepted: 06/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
We here perform a systematic bioinformatic analysis to uncover the role of sorting nexin (SNX) family in clinical outcome of gastric cancer (GC). Comprehensive bioinformatic analysis were realized with online tools such as TCGA, GEO, String, Timer, cBioportal and Kaplan-Meier Plotter. Statistical analysis was conducted with R language or Perl, and artificial neural network (ANN) model was established using Python. Our analysis demonstrated that SNX4/5/6/7/8/10/13/14/15/16/20/22/25/27/30 were higher expressed in GC, whereas SNX1/17/21/24/33 were in the opposite expression profiles. GSE66229 was employed as verification of the differential expression analysis based on TCGA. Clustering results gave the relative transcriptional levels of 30 SNXs in tumor, and it was totally consistent to the inner relevance of SNXs at mRNA level. Protein-Protein Interaction map showed closely and complex connection among 33 SNXs. Tumor immune infiltration analysis asserted that SNX1/3/9/18/19/21/29/33, SNX1/17/18/20/21/29/31/33, SNX1/2/3/6/10/18/29/33, and SNX1/2/6/10/17/18/20/29 were strongly correlated with four kinds of survival related tumor-infiltrating immune cells, including cancer associated fibroblast, endothelial cells, macrophages and Tregs. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis based on GEO presented more satisfactory results than that based on TCGA-STAD did, and all the 29 SNXs were statistically significant, SNX23/26/28 excluded. SNXs alteration contributed to microsatellite instability (MSI) or higher level of MSI-H (hyper-mutated MSI or high level of MSI), and other malignancy encompassing mutation of TP53 and ARID1A, as well as methylation of MLH1.The multivariate cox model, visualized as a nomogram, performed excellently in patients risk classification, for those with higher risk-score suffered from shorter overall survival (OS). Compared to previous researches, our ANN models showed a predictive power at a middle-upper level, with AUC of 0.87/0.72, 0.84/0.72, 0.90/0.71 (GSE84437), 0.98/0.66, 0.86/0.70, 0.98/0.71 (GSE66229), 0.94/0.66, 0.83/0.71, 0.88/0.72 (GSE26253) corresponding to one-, three- and five-year OS and recurrence free survival (RFS) estimation, especially ANN model built with GSE66229 including exclusively SNXs as input data. The SNX family shows great value in postoperative survival evaluation of GC, and ANN models constructed using SNXs transcriptional data manifesting excellent predictive power in both OS and RFS prediction works as convincing verification to that.

Abstract
To facilitate rapid determination of cellular viability caused by the inhibitory effect of drugs, numerical deep learning algorithms was used for unlabeled cell culture images captured by a light microscope as input. In this study, A549, HEK293, and NCI-H1975 cells were cultured, each of which have different molecular shapes and levels of drug responsiveness to doxorubicin (DOX). The microscopic images of these cells following exposure to various concentrations of DOX were trained with the measured value of cell viability using a colorimetric cell proliferation assay. Convolutional neural network (CNN) models for the study cells were constructed using augmented image data; the predicted cell viability using CNN models was compared to the cell viability measured by colorimetric assay. The linear relationship coefficient (r2) between measured and predicted cell viability was determined as 0.94–0.95 for the three cell types. In addition, the measured and predicted IC50 values were not statistically different. When drug responsiveness was estimated using allogenic models that were trained with a different cell type, the correlation coefficient decreased to 0.004085–0.8643. Our models could be applied to label-free cells to conduct rapid and large-scale tests while minimizing cost and labor, such as high-throughput screening for drug responsiveness.

Abstract
For an increasing number of preclinical samples, both detailed molecular profiles and their responses to various drugs are becoming available. Efforts to understand, and predict, drug responses in a data-driven manner have led to a proliferation of machine learning (ML) methods, with the longer term ambition of predicting clinical drug responses. Here, we provide a uniquely wide and deep systematic review of the rapidly evolving literature on monotherapy drug response prediction, with a systematic characterization and classification that comprises more than 70 ML methods in 13 subclasses, their input and output data types, modes of evaluation, and code and software availability. ML experts are provided with a fundamental understanding of the biological problem, and how ML methods are configured for it. Biologists and biomedical researchers are introduced to the basic principles of applicable ML methods, and their application to the problem of drug response prediction. We also provide systematic overviews of commonly used data sources used for training and evaluation methods.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal cancers are among the leading causes of death worldwide, with over 2.8 million deaths annually. Over the last few decades, advancements in artificial intelligence technologies have led to their application in medicine. The use of artificial intelligence in endoscopic procedures is a significant breakthrough in modern medicine. Currently, the diagnosis of various gastrointestinal cancer relies on the manual interpretation of radiographic images by radiologists and various endoscopic images by endoscopists. This can lead to diagnostic variabilities as it requires concentration and clinical experience in the field. Artificial intelligence using machine or deep learning algorithms can provide automatic and accurate image analysis and thus assist in diagnosis. In the field of gastroenterology, the application of artificial intelligence can be vast from diagnosis, predicting tumor histology, polyp characterization, metastatic potential, prognosis, and treatment response. It can also provide accurate prediction models to determine the need for intervention with computer-aided diagnosis. The number of research studies on artificial intelligence in gastrointestinal cancer has been increasing rapidly over the last decade due to immense interest in the field. This review aims to review the impact, limitations, and future potentials of artificial intelligence in screening, diagnosis, tumor staging, treatment modalities, and prediction models for the prognosis of various gastrointestinal cancers.

Abstract
Drug responses in cancer are diverse due to heterogenous genomic profiles. Drug responsiveness prediction is important in clinical response to specific cancer treatments. Recently, multi-class drug responsiveness models based on deep learning (DL) models using molecular fingerprints and mutation statuses have emerged. However, for multi-class models for drug responsiveness prediction, comparisons between convolution neural network (CNN) models (e.g., AlexNet and GoogLeNet) have not been performed. Therefore, in this study, we compared the two CNN models, GoogLeNet and AlexNet, along with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model as a baseline model. We constructed the models by taking drug molecular fingerprints of drugs and cell line mutation statuses, as input, to predict high-, intermediate-, and low-class for half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of the drugs in the cancer cell lines. Additionally, we compared the models in breast cancer patients as well as in an independent gastric cancer cell line drug responsiveness data. We measured the model performance based on the area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves (AUROC) value. In this study, we compared CNN models for multi-class drug responsiveness prediction. The AlexNet and GoogLeNet showed better performances in comparison to LASSO. Thus, DL models will be useful tools for precision oncology in terms of drug responsiveness prediction.

Abstract
Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are one of the primary types of artificial intelligence and have been rapidly developed and used in many fields. In recent years, there has been a sharp increase in research concerning ANNs in gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. This state-of-the-art technique exhibits excellent performance in diagnosis, prognostic prediction, and treatment. Competitions between ANNs and GI experts suggest that efficiency and accuracy might be compatible in virtue of technique advancements. However, the shortcomings of ANNs are not negligible and may induce alterations in many aspects of medical practice. In this review, we introduce basic knowledge about ANNs and summarize the current achievements of ANNs in GI diseases from the perspective of gastroenterologists. Existing limitations and future directions are also proposed to optimize ANN’s clinical potential. In consideration of barriers to interdisciplinary knowledge, sophisticated concepts are discussed using plain words and metaphors to make this review more easily understood by medical practitioners and the general public.

Abstract
Increasing clinical contributions and novel techniques have been made by artificial intelligence (AI) during the last decade. The role of AI is increasingly recognized in cancer research and clinical application. Cancers like gastric cancer, or stomach cancer, are ideal testing grounds to see if early undertakings of applying AI to medicine can yield valuable results. There are numerous concepts derived from AI, including machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL). ML is defined as the ability to learn data features without being explicitly programmed. It arises at the intersection of data science and computer science and aims at the efficiency of computing algorithms. In cancer research, ML has been increasingly used in predictive prognostic models. DL is defined as a subset of ML targeting multilayer computation processes. DL is less dependent on the understanding of data features than ML. Therefore, the algorithms of DL are much more difficult to interpret than ML, even potentially impossible. This review discussed the role of AI in the diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic advances of gastric cancer. Models like convolutional neural networks (CNNs) or artificial neural networks (ANNs) achieved significant praise in their application. There is much more to be fully covered across the clinical administration of gastric cancer. Despite growing efforts, adapting AI to improving diagnoses for gastric cancer is a worthwhile venture. The information yield can revolutionize how we approach gastric cancer problems. Though integration might be slow and labored, it can be given the ability to enhance diagnosing through visual modalities and augment treatment strategies. It can grow to become an invaluable tool for physicians. AI not only benefits diagnostic and therapeutic outcomes, but also reshapes perspectives over future medical trajectory.
