| Abstract | Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) are a diverse class of engineered nanomaterials known to induce pulmonary toxicity. It is unclear if the mechanisms contributing to the adverse effects are similar or unique when comparing different MWCNT. We hypothesize that machine learning techniques applied to toxicity outcomes will distinguish between convergent and divergent molecular responses. Towards this goal, a panel of proteins measured by multi-plex technology in bronchoalveolar lavage collected 1, 28, and 84 d post-exposure from mice exposed to two different as-produced MWCNT, their polymer coated counterparts, or a well-studied reference material, MWCNT-7, were analyzed using association rule mining (ARM) and support vector machine (SVM) techniques. The main objective was to take advantage of both knowledge represented by class association rules and the power of SVM to identify a small number of highly predictive markers (4 to 7 protein panels out of a total 63 proteins) that can distinguish between exposed and unexposed animals. Using these approaches, we were able to reliably (78% -- 97%) identify a small subset of proteins for each exposure that clearly distinguishes effect of exposure. One mediator in particular, MDC/CCL22, was associated with all exposures. MDC protein levels have been shown to be very sensitive in determining MWCNT exposure and predict declining lung function in humans following particulate exposure. Additional mediators (e.g., VEGF-A, MIP1b) exhibited similarity while others (e.g., LIF, MMP-9, VCAM1, PAI-1) distinguished one exposure from another. In vivo toxicity studies indicate that polymer coating the MWCNT for downstream applications can affect pulmonary toxicity. The machine learning techniques clearly distinguished the polymer coated MWCNT from the as-produced counterpart with up to 96% reliability, depending on particle type and exposure duration. The identified patterns in altered lavage proteins may serve as valuable markers to guide detection of exposure to MWCNT and offer hypothesis for future study design. The approaches presented in this study could enable comparison not only within a class of engineered nanomaterials but between various classes of nanomaterials. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
