Background And Objectives: The prediction of multiple drug efficacies using machine learning prediction techniques based on clinical and molecular attributes of tumors is a new approach in the field of precision medicine of oncology. The selection of suitable and effective therapeutic drugs among the potential drugs is performed computationally considering the tumor features. In this study, we developed and validated machine learning models to predict the efficacy of five anti-cancer drugs according to the clinical and molecular attributes of 30 oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cohorts.

Several synthetic small molecule inhibitors affect P-glycoprotein (P-gp) transport function in MDR tumor cells. However, inhibition of P-gp transport function adversely accumulates chemotherapeutic drugs in non-target normal tissues.

In this study, we found that ginsenoside Rg1 induces cytotoxicity and apoptotic cell death through reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and alterations in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in the triple-negative breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-MD-231 cell lines). We found that ginsenoside Rg1 induces the formation of gamma H2AX foci, an indication of DNA damage, and subsequent TUNEL positive apoptotic nuclei in the MDA-MB-MD-231 cell lines.
