ObjectiveSynergistic drug combinations are promising therapies for cancer treatment. However, effective prediction of synergistic drug combinations is quite challenging as mechanisms of drug synergism are still unclear. Various features such as drug response, and target networks may contribute to prediction of synergistic drug combinations. In this study, we aimed to construct a computational model to predict synergistic drug combinations.MethodsWe designed drug physicochemical features and network features, including drug chemical structure similarity, target distance in protein–protein network and targeted pathway similarity. At the same time, we designed fifteen pharmacogenomics features using drug treated gene expression profiles based on the background of cancer-related biology network. Based on these eighteen features, we built a prediction model for Synergistic Drug combination using Random forest algorithm (SyDRa).ResultsOur model achieved a quite good performance with AUC value of 0.89 and Out-of-bag estimate error rate of 0.15 in training dataset. Using the random anti-cancer drug combinations which have transcriptional profile data in the Connectivity Map dataset as the testing dataset, we identified 28 potentially synergistic drug combinations, three out of which had been reported to be effective drug combinations by literatures.ConclusionsWe studied eighteen features for drug combinations and built a computational model using random forest algorithm. The model was evaluated using an independent test dataset. Our model provides an efficient strategy to identify potentially synergistic drug combinations for cancer and may help reduce the search space for high-throughput synergistic drug combinations screening.

The Meme Wars Continue: Don Trump Jr. Throws Salt at Hillary’s Attempt at Humor

http://ift.tt/2rrBz41

Last night President Trump typed in a word ‘covfefe’, which lit the internet ablaze. Obviously, we can’t have this man have access to the nuke codes.

Some believe Trump say on his phone in a drunken stupor and wrongly typed indiscernible words into this phone. Libshits were swinging from vines, attempting humor at the President’s expense. Since then, translations of the mysterious word have surfaced.

The White House said the word was typed on purpose and that they knew what it meant. Either way, this is juvenile horseshit.

Alas, Hillary Clinton attempts to capitalize on grande stupidity, taking her cool factor from -10 to -100.

People in covfefe houses shouldn’t throw covfefe. https://t.co/M7oK5Z6qwF

Don Trump Jr. checked and mated her. Game, set, match.

What house is he in again??? That’s what I thought. You’re trying too hard. https://t.co/9Yomz1Emb5
