Integrated microRNA and proteome analysis of cancer datasets with MoPC.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small molecules that play an essential role in regulating gene expression by post-transcriptional gene silencing. Their study is crucial in revealing the fundamental processes underlying pathologies and, in particular, cancer. To date, most studies on miRNA regulation consider the effect of specific miRNAs on specific target mRNAs, providing wet-lab validation.

PIK3R1 fusion drives chemoresistance in ovarian cancer by activating ERK1/2 and inducing rod and ring-like structures.

Gene fusions are common in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC). Such genetic lesions may promote tumorigenesis, but the pathogenic mechanisms are currently poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role of a PIK3R1-CCDC178 fusion identified from a patient with advanced HGSC.

A Graph-Based Multi-Scale Approach With Knowledge Distillation for WSI Classification.

The usage of Multi Instance Learning (MIL) for classifying Whole Slide Images (WSIs) has recently increased. Due to their gigapixel size, the pixel-level annotation of such data is extremely expensive and time-consuming, practically unfeasible. For this reason, multiple automatic approaches have been raised in the last years to support clinical practice and diagnosis.

MiREx: mRNA levels prediction from gene sequence and miRNA target knowledge.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) has an essential role in the protein production process. Predicting mRNA expression levels accurately is crucial for understanding gene regulation, and various models (statistical and neural network-based) have been developed for this purpose. A few models predict mRNA expression levels from the DNA sequence, exploiting the DNA sequence and gene features (e.

Predicting gene and protein expression levels from DNA and protein sequences with Perceiver.

Background And Objective: The functions of an organism and its biological processes result from the expression of genes and proteins. Therefore quantifying and predicting mRNA and protein levels is a crucial aspect of scientific research. Concerning the prediction of mRNA levels, the available approaches use the sequence upstream and downstream of the Transcription Start Site (TSS) as input to neural networks.
