SequenceCraft: machine learning-based resource for exploratory analysis of RNA-cleaving deoxyribozymes.

Background: Deoxyribozymes or DNAzymes represent artificial short DNA sequences bearing many catalytic properties. In particular, DNAzymes able to cleave RNA sequences have a huge potential in gene therapy and sequence-specific analytic detection of disease markers. This activity is provided by catalytic cores able to perform site-specific hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bond of an RNA substrate.

Machine Learning Reinforced Genetic Algorithm for Massive Targeted Discovery of Selectively Cytotoxic Inorganic Nanoparticles.

Nanoparticles (NPs) have been employed as drug delivery systems (DDSs) for several decades, primarily as passive carriers, with limited selectivity. However, recent publications have shed light on the emerging phenomenon of NPs exhibiting selective cytotoxicity against cancer cell lines, attributable to distinct metabolic disparities between healthy and pathological cells. This study revisits the concept of NPs selective cytotoxicity, and for the first time proposes a high-throughput in silico screening approach to massive targeted discovery of selectively cytotoxic inorganic NPs.

Quantifying the Efficacy of Magnetic Nanoparticles for MRI and Hyperthermia Applications via Machine Learning Methods.

Magnetic nanoparticles are a prospective class of materials for use in biomedicine as agents for magnetic resonance imagining (MRI) and hyperthermia treatment. However, synthesis of nanoparticles with high efficacy is resource-intensive experimental work. In turn, the use of machine learning (ML) methods is becoming useful in materials design and serves as a great approach to designing nanomagnets for biomedicine.

Quantitative Prediction of Inorganic Nanomaterial Cellular Toxicity via Machine Learning.

Organic chemistry has seen colossal progress due to machine learning (ML). However, the translation of artificial intelligence (AI) into materials science is challenging, where biological behavior prediction becomes even more complicated. Nanotoxicity is a critical parameter that describes their interaction with the living organisms screened in every bio-related research.
