QuantAnts machines discover biomarkers for RAS signaling activation and design sgRNAs for CRISPR to target complex CD9, CD34, and CD74.

Abstract In this work, we introduce a quantum algorithm for biomarker identification in oncology, named QuantAnts machines, pronounced "quantant machine." Our proposed machine intelligence allows sampling biomarker-verse for the targeted RAS signaling activation, revealing combinations of biomarkers with therapeutic applications. Notable, the QuantAnts for Clinical Oncology model, ASCO(ant-4) discovers the complex CD9, CD34, and CD74 as targeting for RAS pathway for some cancer phenotypes such as gastric, colorectal (with/without metastasis), ovarian, breast and brain cancer. To the end, we show the generalization of QuantAnts machines by altering the model for genetic code designs (named QuantAnts-CRISPR), which enabling optimized sgRNA for CRISPR-Cas9 to target the complex CD9, CD34, and CD74 all-together. The found sgRNA designs are optimized by reversing mutation processes over the targeted complex, i.e., balancing the mutated contents over the input biomarker-verse.

When cancer meets quantum mechanics.

To date, classical deterministic Newtonian physics has been used by biologists to describe living processes. However, it is increasingly appreciated that the probabilistic view offered by quantum mechanics more accurately describes the behavior of atoms and materials in all systems. Here, we discuss how the concepts of quantum mechanics can be applied to biological processes involved in cancer. We present a concise summary inspired by Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle to describe our «Genetic Environmental Field Hypothesis». Combining the uncertainties of genetic changes as expressed by epigenetic changes and/or somatic mutations with the uncertainties of environmental changes, cells may become cancerous as a way to increase entropy. Throughout the paper we will utilize the H19 gene system as an example. Using the concepts of quantum mechanics to describe oncological processes may provide novel directions in our understanding of cancer.
