Prioritizing Pain-Associated Targets with Machine Learning

Abstract excerpt

While hundreds of genes have been associated with pain, much of the molecular mechanisms of pain remain unknown. As a result, current analgesics are limited to few clinically validated targets. Here, we trained a machine learning (ML) ensemble model to predict new targets for 17 categories of pain. The model utilizes features from transcriptomics, proteomics, and gene ontology to prioritize targets for modulating...
