Dichloroacetate (DCA) is a simple and small anticancer drug that arouses the activity of the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) through inhibition of the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases (PDK1-4). DCA can selectively promote mitochondria-regulated apoptosis, depolarizing the hyperpolarized inner mitochondrial membrane potential to normal levels, inhibit tumor growth and reduce proliferati...

one of the most important aspects of software project management is the estimation of cost and time required for running information system. therefore, software managers try to carry estimation based on behavior, properties, and project restrictions. software cost estimation refers to the process of development requirement prediction of software system. various kinds of effort estimation patter...

The elastic pressure/volume (P/V) curve obtained by the multiple linear regression (MLR) technique using a new model, was compared with the quasi-static P/V points obtained by the rapid airway occlusion technique. Seven infants were studied during mechanical ventilation using a pressure controlled mode. The resistive pressure was subtracted from airway opening pressure, thus determining the ela...

Malaria is a parasitic disease with limited chemotherapy options. Chemotherapy options are limited; moreover, drug resistant frequently occurs. The speed of drug development should be faster to overcome the emerging drug resistance. In the current study, a series of quinolone derivatives were subjected to quantitative structure activity relationship to identify the ideal physicochemical charact...

Our study performed upon an extended series of 28 compounds of 1,2,4-triazole derivatives that demonstrate substantial in vitro antimicrobial activities by serial plate dilution method, using quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) methods that imply analysis of correlations and multiple linear regression (MLR); a significant collection of molecular descriptors was used e.g., Edge a...

abstract spatial prediction of soil organic carbon is a crucial proxy to manage and conserve natural resources, monitoring co2 and preventing soil erosion strategies within the landscape, regional, and global scale. the objectives of this study was to evaluate capability of artificial neural network and multivariate linear regression models in order to predict soil organic carbon using terrain ...

quantitative relationships between molecular structure and azolo-adamantanes derivatives were discovered by different chemometric tools including factor analysis based multiple linear regressions (fa-mlr), principle component regression analysis (pcra), and genetic algorithm-partial least squares ga-pls. the fa-mlr describes the effect of geometrical and quantum indices on enzyme inhibition act...

Quantitative structure-retention relationship (QSRR) analysis is a useful technique capable of relating chromatographic retention time to the chemical structure of a solute. A QSRR study has been carried out on the reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography retention times (log tR) of 62 diverse drugs (painkillers) by using molecular descriptors. Multiple linear regression (MLR) is u...
