One of the most common cancers targeting the area of the head and neck is oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), carrying a heavy global health cost. With a high incidence of metastasis and recurrence, the outlook for OSCC remains dismal despite advancements in treatment. This has sparked an investigation into molecular biomarkers, which have the potential to improve early diagnosis, forecast patient outcomes, and direct therapeutic approaches.

This article delves into the application of design of experiments methodologies for the integration of a second-order definitive screening design (DSD) and artificial neural network (ANN) to comprehensively assess and predict nine operational variables aimed at increasing the yield of α-amylase from Bacillus velezensis species. By utilizing environmentally friendly and cost-effective agro-solid substrates such as moong husk and soya bean cake, the physical and chemical parameters influencing α-amylase biosynthesis from B. velezensis species were optimized, gathering early data from experiments conducted in shake flasks through the standard one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) technique.

The development of Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) has also allowed researchers to understand the complexity of diseases better and find new treatments for difficult-to-treat conditions. Using mAbs, researchers can identify and target specific molecules in the body involved in the disease process. This has allowed for a more targeted treatment approach, which has resulted in improved outcomes for many patients.
