Text mining of CHO bioprocess bibliome: Topic modeling and document classification.

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are widely used for mass production of therapeutic proteins in the pharmaceutical industry. With the growing need in optimizing the performance of producer CHO cell lines, research on CHO cell line development and bioprocess continues to increase in recent decades. Bibliographic mapping and classification of relevant research studies will be essential for identifying research gaps and trends in literature.

The Glycan Structure Dictionary-a dictionary describing commonly used glycan structure terms.

Recent technological advances in glycobiology have resulted in a large influx of data and the publication of many papers describing discoveries in glycoscience. However, the terms used in describing glycan structural features are not standardized, making it difficult to harmonize data across biomolecular databases, hampering the harvesting of information across studies and hindering text mining and curation efforts. To address this shortcoming, the Glycan Structure Dictionary has been developed as a reference dictionary to provide a standardized list of widely used glycan terms that can help in the curation and mapping of glycan structures described in publications.

Investigation of improving the pre-training and fine-tuning of BERT model for biomedical relation extraction.

Background: Recently, automatically extracting biomedical relations has been a significant subject in biomedical research due to the rapid growth of biomedical literature. Since the adaptation to the biomedical domain, the transformer-based BERT models have produced leading results on many biomedical natural language processing tasks. In this work, we will explore the approaches to improve the BERT model for relation extraction tasks in both the pre-training and fine-tuning stages of its applications.

emiRIT: a text-mining-based resource for microRNA information.

microRNAs (miRNAs) are essential gene regulators, and their dysregulation often leads to diseases. Easy access to miRNA information is crucial for interpreting generated experimental data, connecting facts across publications and developing new hypotheses built on previous knowledge. Here, we present extracting miRNA Information from Text (emiRIT), a text-miningbased resource, which presents miRNA information mined from the literature through a user-friendly interface.

OncoMX: A Knowledgebase for Exploring Cancer Biomarkers in the Context of Related Cancer and Healthy Data.

Purpose: The purpose of OncoMX knowledgebase development was to integrate cancer biomarker and relevant data types into a meta-portal, enabling the research of cancer biomarkers side by side with other pertinent multidimensional data types.

Methods: Cancer mutation, cancer differential expression, cancer expression specificity, healthy gene expression from human and mouse, literature mining for cancer mutation and cancer expression, and biomarker data were integrated, unified by relevant biomedical ontologies, and subjected to rule-based automated quality control before ingestion into the database.

Results: OncoMX provides integrated data encompassing more than 1,000 unique biomarker entries (939 from the Early Detection Research Network [EDRN] and 96 from the US Food and Drug Administration) mapped to 20,576 genes that have either mutation or differential expression in cancer.
