Title:
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SELECTING THERAPEUTIC TARGETS USING MOLECULAR INTERACTION DYNAMIC NETWORKS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005013173
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention concerns the field of integrative analysis of molecular interactions in a biological system. In particular, the invention concerns a method for obtaining a dynamic model of a network of molecular interactions in a biological system, enabling said interactions to be analyzed when a stimulus is applied to the dynamic model, in particular to establish a hierarchy of biological molecules or to select therapeutic targets with respect to a specific biological problem, in particular to define a therapeutic action to be applied to said molecules. The invention also concerns a computer system for obtaining a dynamic model of a network of molecular interactions in a biological system, and the analysis of said molecular interactions when a stimulus is applied to the dynamic model, the computer system comprising at least one central processing unit connected to at least one quantitative experimental database.
