  1. 21. In silico and in vitro determination of substrate specificity for Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP) transporter at the blood-brain barrier

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaci

    Author : Fen Wang; [2021]
    Keywords : BCRP; substrate specificity; BBB; ATP-binding cassette ABC transporter; Drug transport;

    Abstract : Background The Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (BCRP) drug transporter is important for drug disposition and plays a critical role in regulating drug entry into the brain. Its substrate spectrum overlaps with substrates of Multi Drug Resistance Protein 1 (MDR1, P-gp), which influences and complicates the interpretation of data on drug distribution into tissues (e.

  2. 22. Delayed-acceptance approximate Bayesian computation Markov chain Monte Carlo: faster simulation using a surrogate model

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaper

    Author : Andrea Krogdal; [2020-01-09]
    Keywords : ABC; MCMC; delayed acceptance; DA; surrogate model;

    Abstract : The thesis introduces an innovative way of decreasing the computational cost of approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) simulations when implemented via Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Bayesian inference has enjoyed incredible success since the beginning of 1990’s thanks to the re-discovery of MCMC procedures, and the availability of performing personal computers. READ MORE

  4. 24. Calibration of Breast Cancer Natural History Models Using Approximate Bayesian Computation

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Oscar Bergqvist; [2020]
    Keywords : Approximate Bayesian Computation; ABC; breast cancer natural history models; random effects; Bayesian statistics; likelihood-free inference; Approximate Bayesian computation; ABC; natural history models för bröstcancer; random effects; bayesiansk statistik; likelihood-fri inferens;

    Abstract : Natural history models for breast cancer describe the unobservable disease progression. These models can either be fitted using likelihood-based estimation to data on individual tumour characteristics, or calibrated to fit statistics at a population level. READ MORE
