Article Abstract
In the present study, molecular descriptors and physicochemical properties were used to encode drug molecules. Based on this molecular representation method, Random forest was applied to construct a drug-drug combination network. After feature selection, an optimal features subset was built, which described the main factors of drugs in our prediction. As a result, the selected features can be clustered into three categories: elemental analysis, chemistry, and geometric features. And all of the three types features are essential elements of the drug-drug combination network. The final prediction model achieved a Matthew's correlation coefficient (MCC) of 0.5335 and an overall prediction accuracy of 88.79% for the 10-fold cross-validation test.

Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is a robust proinflammatory cytokine that activates immune cells, such as T cells and natural killer cells, to induce antitumor immunity. However, the clinical application of recombinant IL-12 has been limited by systemic immune-related adverse events (irAEs) and rapid degradation. To address these challenges, we employed mRNA technology to encode a tumor-activated IL-12 "lock" fusion protein that offers both therapeutic efficacy and systemic safety.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 20 (CDK20), also known as cell cycle-related kinase (CCRK), plays a pivotal role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression by regulating β-catenin signaling and promoting uncontrolled proliferation. Despite its emerging significance, selective small-molecule inhibitors of CDK20 remain unexplored. In this study, a known CDK20 inhibitor, ISM042-2-048, was employed as a reference to retrieve structurally similar compounds from the PubChem database using an 85% similarity threshold.

Aurora kinases are a group of serine/threonine kinases essential for cell mitosis, comprising Aurora A, B, and C. However, the Aurora B is overexpressed in multiple tumors and the aurone has been proved to exhibit potent inhibitory activity against Aurora B kinase by our group. The indolinone was considered as an aurone scaffold hopping analog, and the indolinone-based Aurora B inhibitor library (3577 molecules) was constructed by FBDD strategy.

Drug absorption significantly influences pharmacokinetics. Accurately predicting human oral bioavailability (HOB) is essential for optimizing drug candidates and improving clinical success rates. The traditional method based on experiment is a common way to obtain HOB, but the experimental method is time-consuming and costly.

A fundamental question in the field of molecular computation is what computational tasks a biochemical system can carry out. In this work, we focus on the problem of finding the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) for log-affine models. We revisit a construction due to Gopalkrishnan of a mass-action system with the MLE as its unique positive steady state, which is based on choosing a basis for the kernel of the design matrix of the model.
