However, most of the conventional control methods do not support the positivity of the main input data to the system. Furthermore, the parameters of these systems, similar to other non-linear systems, are either not accurately identified or may change over time. Therefore, it is reasonable to design a controller that is robust against system uncertainties. A robust positive-input control method is proposed for the automatic treatment of targeted anti-angiogenic therapy implementing a recently published tumour growth model based on experiments conducted on mouse models. The backstepping (BS) approach is applied to design the positive input controller using sensory data of tumour volume as feedback. Unlike previous studies, the proposed controller only requires the measurement of tumour volume and does not require the measurement of inhibitor level. The exponential stability of the controlled system is proved mathematically using the Lyapunov theorem. As a result, the convergence rate of the tumour volume can be controlled, which is an important issue in cancer treatment. Moreover, the robustness of the system against parametric uncertainties is verified mathematically using the Lyapunov theorem. The real-time simulation results-based (OPAL-RT) and comparisons with previous studies confirm the theoretical findings and effectiveness of the proposed method.</p>","PeriodicalId":50379,"journal":{"name":"IET Systems Biology","volume":"17 5","pages":"288-301"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/syb2.12076","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41158333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Basement membranes (BMs) are ubiquitous extracellular matrices which are affected in many diseases including DKD.

The expression profiles of three datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. BM-related differentially expression genes (DEGs) were identified and Kyoto encyclopaedia of genes and genomes pathway enrichment analysis were applied to biological functions. Immune cell infiltration and immune function in the kidneys of patients with DKD and healthy controls were evaluated and compared using the ssGSEA algorithm. The association of hub genes and immune cells and immune function were explored. A total of 30 BM-related DEGs were identified. The functional analysis showed that BM-related DEGs were notably associated with basement membrane alterations. Crucially, BM-related hub genes in DKD were finally identified, which were able to distinguish patients with DKD from controls. Moreover, the authors observed that laminin subunit gamma 1(LAMC1) expression was significantly high in HK2 cells treated with high glucose.
