• Abstract summary: understanding protein interactions and pathway knowledge is crucial for unraveling the complexities of living systems. Existing databases provide curated biological data from literature and other sources, but their maintenance is labor-intensive. We propose to harness the capabilities of large language models to address these issues by automatically extracting such knowledge from the relevant scientific literature.

• Abstract: Understanding protein interactions and pathway knowledge is crucial for unraveling the complexities of living systems and investigating the underlying mechanisms of biological functions and complex diseases. While existing databases provide curated biological data from literature and other sources, they are often incomplete and their maintenance is labor-intensive, necessitating alternative approaches. In this study, we propose to harness the capabilities of large language models to address these issues by automatically extracting such knowledge from the relevant scientific literature. Toward this goal, in this work, we investigate the effectiveness of different large language models in tasks that involve recognizing protein interactions, identifying genes associated with pathways affected by low-dose radiation, and gene regulatory relations. We thoroughly evaluate the performance of various models, highlight the significant findings, and discuss both the future opportunities and the remaining challenges associated with this approach.

  Multi-omics refers to the integrative analysis of data derived from multiple 'omes' Deep learning methods are increasingly utilized to integrate multi-omics data, offering insights into molecular interactions and enhancing research into complex diseases. These models, with their numerous interconnected layers and nonlinear relationships, often function as black boxes, lacking transparency in decision-making processes. This review explores how xAI can improve the interpretability of deep learning models in multi-omics research, highlighting its potential to provide clinicians with clear insights.
