Title:
USING MULTIPLE PERTURBATIONS TO ELUCIDATE CONNECTIVITY IN NETWORK SYSTEMS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005031584
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
One embodiment of the invention is a method of analyzing the effects of combined perturbers of a network system by means of a set of model predictions for various network configurations, using a set of phenomenologically-based combination surface models. This method can be used to predict the effects of combined perturbers of known networks, for example, providing mechanistic validation for therapeutic compounds. Alternatively, this method can provide constraints for constructing connectivity models from observed combination effects on networks of unknown structure, thus, for example, providing the required understanding to identify novel targets for therapeutic compounds.
