    Abstract While running any experiment, we often have to consider the statistical power to ensure an effective study. Statistical power or power ensures that we can observe an effect with high probability if such a true effect exists. However, several studies lack the appropriate planning for determining the optimal sample size to ensure adequate power. Thus, careful planning ensures that the power remains high even under high measurement errors while keeping the type 1 error constrained. We study the impact of differential privacy on experiments and theoretically analyze the change in sample size required due to the Gaussian mechanisms. Further, we provide an empirical method to improve the accuracy of private statistics with simple bootstrapping.

    Comment: There are no significant alterations from version 1. We mistakenly included metadata from a journal Latex template while using its document class and it's now removed to avoid any confusion. This article has been accepted at the Workshop on Theory and Practice of Differential Privacy at ICML 2022

    Abstract An overview of values for the threshold of toxicological concern (TTC) is presented. This comprises the more established TTC values, including those that have been endorsed by regulatory bodies, and those that have more recently been proposed and may still need further development. The overview is structured by use/exposure scenario and provides, in particular, key information on the underlying databases. It is aimed to support the application of the TTC approach in the risk assessment of chemicals whereby it is important to be aware under which circumstances a certain TTC value can be applied. Some recommendations for potential future developments to further improve the TTC approach are also being made.

    Using neural networks and principal components to determine multivariate statistical power trade-offs

    Abstract Statistical power estimation for studies with multiple model parameters is inherently a multivariate problem. Power for individual parameters of interest cannot be reliably estimated univariately since correlation and variance explained relative to one parameter will impact the power for another parameter, all usual univariate considerations being equal. Explicit solutions in such cases, especially for models with many parameters, are either impractical or impossible to solve, leaving researchers to the prevailing method of simulating power. However, the point estimates for a vector of model parameters are uncertain, and the impact of inaccuracy is unknown. In such cases, sensitivity analysis is recommended such that multiple combinations of possible observable parameter vectors are simulated to understand power trade-offs. A limitation to this approach is that it is computationally expensive to generate sufficient sensitivity combinations to accurately map the power trade-off function in increasingly high-dimensional spaces for the models that social scientists estimate. This paper explores the efficient estimation and graphing of statistical power for a study over varying model parameter combinations. We propose a simple and generalizable machine learning inspired solution to cut the computational cost to less than 10% of the brute force method while providing F1 scores above 90%. We further motivate the impact of transfer learning in learning power manifolds across varying distributions.

    Abstract We present a novel analysis of gas damping in capacitive MEMS transducers that is based on a simple analytical model, assisted by Monte-Carlo simulations performed in Molflow+ to obtain an estimate for the geometry dependent gas diffusion time. This combination provides results with minimal computational expense and through freely available software, as well as insight into how the gas damping depends on the transducer geometry in the molecular flow regime. The results can be used to predict damping for arbitrary gas mixtures. The analysis was verified by experimental results for both air and helium atmospheres and matches these data to within 15% over a wide range of pressures.

    Abstract Disease-related phenotypic assays enable unbiased discovery of novel bioactive small molecules and may provide novel insights into physiological systems and unprecedented molecular modes of action (MMOA). Herein, we report the identification and characterization of epoxykynin, a potent inhibitor of the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH). Epoxykynin was discovered by means of a cellular assay monitoring modulation of kynurenine (Kyn) levels in BxPC-3 cells upon stimulation with the cytokine interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and subsequent target identification employing affinity-based chemical proteomics. Increased Kyn levels are associated with immune suppression in the tumor microenvironment and, thus, the Kyn pathway and its key player indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) are appealing targets in immuno-oncology. However, targeting IDO1 directly has led to limited success in clinical investigations, demonstrating that alternative approaches to reduce Kyn levels are in high demand. We uncover a cross-talk between sEH and the Kyn pathway that may provide new opportunities to revert cancer-induced immune tolerance.

    Abstract The immunoregulatory enzyme indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO1) strengthens cancer immune escape, and inhibition of IDO1 by means of new chemotypes and mechanisms of action is considered a promising opportunity for IDO1 inhibitor discovery. IDO1 is a cofactor-binding, redox-sensitive protein, which calls for monitoring of IDO1 activity in its native cellular environment. We developed a new, robust fluorescence-based assay amenable to high throughput, which detects kynurenine in cells. Screening of a ca. 150 000-member compound library discovered unprecedented, potent IDO1 modulators with different mechanisms of action, including direct IDO1 inhibitors, regulators of IDO1 expression, and inhibitors of heme synthesis. Three IDO1-modulator chemotypes were identified that bind to apo-IDO1 and compete with the heme cofactor. Our new cell-based technology opens up novel opportunities for medicinal chemistry programs in immuno-oncology.

    Abstract Pyrazolopyrimidines are well-established as covalent inhibitors of protein kinases such as the epidermal growth factor receptor or Bruton's tyrosine kinase, and we recently described their potential in targeting mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 7 (MKK7). Herein, we report the structure-activity relationship of pyrazolopyrimidine-based MKK7 inhibitors and solved several complex crystal structures to gain insights into their binding mode. In addition, we present two structures of apo-MKK7, exhibiting a DFG-out and an unprecedented DFG-in/Leu-in conformation.

    Abstract Natural product (NP)-inspired design principles provide invaluable guidance for bioactive compound discovery. Pseudo-natural products (PNPs) are de novo combinations of NP fragments to target biologically relevant chemical space not covered by NPs. We describe the design and synthesis of apoxidoles, a novel pseudo-NP class, whereby indole- and tetrahydropyridine fragments are linked in monopodal connectivity not found in nature. Apoxidoles are efficiently accessible by an enantioselective [4+2] annulation reaction. Biological evaluation revealed that apoxidoles define a new potent type IV inhibitor chemotype of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1), a heme-containing enzyme considered a target for the treatment of neurodegeneration, autoimmunity and cancer. Apoxidoles target apo-IDO1, prevent heme binding and induce unique amino acid positioning as revealed by crystal structure analysis. Novel type IV apo-IDO1 inhibitors are in high demand, and apoxidoles may provide new opportunities for chemical biology and medicinal chemistry research.
