Article Abstract

Evidence accumulated over the past decades shows that the number of identified antisense transcripts is continuously increasing, promoting them from transcriptional noise to real genes with specific functions. Indeed, recent studies have begun to unravel the complexity of the antisense RNA (asRNA) world, starting from the multidimensional mechanisms that they can exert in physiological and pathological conditions. In this review, we discuss the multiverse of the molecular functions of asRNAs, describing their action through transcription-dependent and RNA-dependent mechanisms. Then, we report the workflow and methodologies to study and functionally characterize single asRNA candidates.

The application of machine learning (ML) techniques in predictive modelling has greatly advanced our comprehension of biological systems. There is a notable shift in the trend towards integration methods that specifically target the simultaneous analysis of multiple modes or types of data, showcasing superior results compared to individual analyses. Despite the availability of diverse ML architectures for researchers interested in embracing a multimodal approach, the current literature lacks a comprehensive taxonomy that includes the pros and cons of these methods to guide the entire process.

Beyond single paradigms, pipelines, and outcomes: Embracing multiverse analyses in psychophysiology.

Int J Psychophysiol

March 2024

Department of Psychology, University of South Florida, Tampa, FL, USA. Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • Psychophysiological research involves complex data analysis and decision-making that can lead to a wide range of potential outcomes, creating a "multiverse" of interpretations.
  • The review introduces multiverse analyses as a way to evaluate how different decisions—from study design to statistical methods—impact the reliability of findings.
  • It emphasizes the need for transparency in these decisions to better understand their effects on experimental results and to enhance overall research quality in the field.

Navigating the Chemical Space and Chemical Multiverse of a Unified Latin American Natural Product Database: LANaPDB.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel)

September 2023

DIFACQUIM Research Group, Department of Pharmacy, School of Chemistry, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Avenida Universidad 3000, Mexico City 04510, Mexico.

The number of databases of natural products (NPs) has increased substantially. Latin America is extraordinarily rich in biodiversity, enabling the identification of novel NPs, which has encouraged both the development of databases and the implementation of those that are being created or are under development. In a collective effort from several Latin American countries, herein we introduce the first version of the Latin American Natural Products Database (LANaPDB), a public compound collection that gathers the chemical information of NPs contained in diverse databases from this geographical region.

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is the principal reason for failure in developing drug candidates. It is the most common reason to withdraw from the market after a drug has been approved for clinical use. In this context, data from animal models, liver function tests, and chemical properties could complement each other to understand DILI events better and prevent them.
