The role of artificial intelligence in drug screening, drug design, and clinical trials.

The role of computational tools in drug discovery and development is becoming increasingly important due to the rapid development of computing power and advancements in computational chemistry and biology, improving research efficiency and reducing the costs and potential risks of preclinical and clinical trials. Machine learning, especially deep learning, a subfield of artificial intelligence (AI), has demonstrated significant advantages in drug discovery and development, including high-throughput and virtual screening, design of drug molecules, and solving difficult organic syntheses. This review summarizes AI technologies used in drug discovery and development, including their roles in drug screening, design, and solving the challenges of clinical trials.

KIAA0040 enhances glioma growth by controlling the JAK2/STAT3 signalling pathway.

The role of KIAA0040 role in glioma development is not yet understood despite its connection to nervous system diseases. In this study, KIAA0040 expression levels were evaluated using qRT-PCR, WB and IHC, and functional assays were conducted to assess its impact on glioma progression, along with animal experiments. Moreover, WB was used to examine the impact of KIAA0040 on the JAK2/STAT3 signalling pathway.

Divergence of 10 satellite repeats in Artemisia (Asteraceae: Anthemideae) based on sequential fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis: evidence for species identification and evolution.

Artemisia is a large genus encompassing about 400 diverse species, many of which have considerable medicinal and ecological value. However, complex morphological information and variation in ploidy level and nuclear DNA content have presented challenges for evolution studies of this genus. Consequently, taxonomic inconsistencies within the genus persist, hindering the utilization of such large plant resources.

Brain structures associated with individual differences in decisional and emotional forgiveness.

In responding to interpersonal conflicts, forgiveness goes a long way. Past brain imaging studies have examined the activation patterns of forgiving responses. However, the individual differences in brain structures associated with decisional forgiveness and emotional forgiveness are not well understood.
