  Mathematical (Quantitative) and Cell Linguistic (Qualitative) Evidence for Hypermetabolic Pathways as Potential Drug Targets
  Author(s): Ji SJi S
  
  Objectives: According to the cell language theory first proposed in 1997, living cells use a molecular language whose structure is similar to (or isomorphic) with the structures of the human language with respect to the 10 out of the 13 design features established by linguists. One of the predictions of the cell language theory is that there should exist in the living cell what is referred to as ‘hypermetabolic pathways’ that correspond to texts in human language deemed essential for reasoning and computing. A mathematical method known as the Planck-Shannon plot is described that can be employed to identify the predicted hypermetabolic pathways that underlie human breast cancer and hence can serve as potential anti-cancer drug targets. Data and analytic method: The gene expression profile data measured with microarrays were provided by Perez- Ortin’s group in Valencia.. Read More»
