P-glycoprotein is a 130-180-kDa integral membrane protein that overproduced in multidrug-resistant cells. The appears to act as an energy-dependent drug efflux pump has broad specificity for structurally diverse hydrophobic antitumor drugs. Many agents, such the calcium channel blocker verapamil, reverse multidrug resistance and also interact with P-glycoprotein. goal of this work was determine if common binding site participates transport drugs and/or reversal resistance. This done by...
P-glycoprotein is an integral membrane protein that overproduced in multidrug-resistant cells. It likely to function as energy-dependent drug efflux pump maintain intracellular concentrations below cytotoxic levels. Individually isolated murine cell lines, J7.V1-1 and J7.V3-1, overproduce P-glycoproteins encoded by the mdr1b mdr1a genes, respectively. The transport properties of these lines binding characteristics their have been compared. concluded 1) gene product a more efficient than...
Multiphase fluid dynamics, such as falling droplets and rising bubbles, are critical to many industrial applications. However, simulating these phenomena efficiently is challenging due the complexity of instabilities, wave patterns, bubble breakup. This paper investigates potential scientific machine learning (SciML) model dynamics using neural operators foundation models. We apply sequence-to-sequence techniques on a comprehensive dataset generated from 11,000 simulations, comprising 1...

Valvular pathologies that induce deterioration in the aortic valve are a common cause of heart disease among aging populations. Although there numerous available technologies to treat valvular conditions and replicate normal function by replacing diseased with bioprosthetic implant, many these devices face challenges terms long-term durability. One such phenomenon may exacerbate undesirable hemodynamic effects aorta is leaflet flutter, which characterized oscillatory motion biological...

Simulating fluid flow around arbitrary shapes is key to solving various engineering problems. However, simulating physics across complex geometries remains numerically challenging and computationally resource-intensive, particularly when using conventional PDE solvers. Machine learning methods offer attractive opportunities create fast adaptable benchmark datasets measure the performance of such are scarce, especially for geometries. We introduce FlowBench, a dataset neural simulators with...

We present a high-level domain-specific language (DSL) interface to drive an adaptive incomplete $k$-d tree-based framework for finite element (FEM) solutions PDEs. This DSL provides three key advances: (a) it abstracts out the complexity of implementing non-trivial FEM formulations, (b) simplifies deploying these formulations on arbitrarily complicated and adaptively refined meshes, (c) exhibits good parallel performance. Taken together, allows end-users rapidly efficiently prototype new...
The accurate and efficient simulation of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) in around arbitrarily defined geometries is critical for many application domains. Immersed boundary methods (IBMs) alleviate the usually laborious time-consuming process creating body-fitted meshes complex geometry models (described by CAD or other representations, e.g., STL, point clouds), especially when high levels mesh adaptivity are required. In this work, we advance field IBM context recently developed...
