Classification of thyroid hormone receptor agonists and antagonists using statistical learning approaches

Molecular Diversity
Fangfang Wang, Jinyi Xing

Abstract

In silico models are presented for modeling and predicting thyroid hormone receptor (TR) agonists and antagonists. A data set consisting of 258 compounds is used in the present work. The C4.5, random forest (RF) and support vector machine (SVM) statistical methods were used for evaluation. The performance of the quantitative structure-activity relationships was further validated with fivefold cross-validation and an independent external test set. The C4.5 model is slightly weak, and the prediction accuracies of the agonists and antagonists are 93.2 and 57.8% for cross-validation, respectively, averaging 83.1% of correctly classified compounds in the test set. The RF model possesses an average prediction accuracy of 84.0 and 87.1% for the cross-validation and external validation, respectively. Furthermore, the overall prediction accuracy and the external prediction accuracy are 96.6 and 97.2%, respectively, for the SVM model. The results would validate the reliability of the derived models, further demonstrating that RF and SVM models are useful tools capable of classifying TR-binding ligands as agonists or antagonists.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
