Dataset of miRNA-disease relations extracted from textual data using transformer-based neural networks.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in post-transcriptional processes and regulate major cellular functions. The abnormal regulation of expression of miRNAs has been linked to numerous human diseases such as respiratory diseases, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Latest miRNA-disease associations are predominantly found in unstructured biomedical literature.

The Epilepsy Ontology: a community-based ontology tailored for semantic interoperability and text mining.

Motivation: Epilepsy is a multifaceted complex disorder that requires a precise understanding of the classification, diagnosis, treatment and disease mechanism governing it. Although scattered resources are available on epilepsy, comprehensive and structured knowledge is missing. In contemplation to promote multidisciplinary knowledge exchange and facilitate advancement in clinical management, especially in pre-clinical research, a disease-specific ontology is necessary.

SEAweb: the small RNA Expression Atlas web application.

We present the Small RNA Expression Atlas (SEAweb), a web application that allows for the interactive querying, visualization and analysis of known and novel small RNAs across 10 organisms. It contains sRNA and pathogen expression information for over 4200 published samples with standardized search terms and ontologies. In addition, SEAweb allows for the interactive visualization and re-analysis of 879 differential expression and 514 classification comparisons.

LIVIVO - the Vertical Search Engine for Life Sciences.

The explosive growth of literature and data in the life sciences challenges researchers to keep track of current advancements in their disciplines. Novel approaches in the life science like the One Health paradigm require integrated methodologies in order to link and connect heterogeneous information from databases and literature resources. Current publications in the life sciences are increasingly characterized by the employment of trans-disciplinary methodologies comprising molecular and cell biology, genetics, genomic, epigenomic, transcriptional and proteomic high throughput technologies with data from humans, plants, and animals.
