Mining frequent patterns for AMP-activated protein kinase regulation on skeletal muscle

“…Originally, the data contained 17 attributes, 46 items and 45 experiments [see Additional file 1 ]. After conversion into the format of non-negative integer, there are 57 items owing to the insert of filtering items [ 18 ]. In addition, initial items from experiments are divided into state items and stimulus items.…”

“…We organise these items into seventeen disjoint non-negative integer intervals so that each bin B i contains the items matching integers in the i th interval. Table 4 shows the specified intervals, and the details can be found in [ 18 ]. We specify item constraint IC i in the closed interpretation [see Additional file 1 ].…”

“…AMPK was found to play an important role in the regulation of muscle metabolism. We have selected 45 experiments [ 18 ] in relevant bio/medical literatures in Medline by searching the NCBI using keywords " AMPK and human skeletal muscle " (103 papers) and " AMPK and endurance training " (16 papers), respectively.…”
