The coefficient of conformism of a correlative prediction (CCCP): Building up reliable nano-QSPRs/QSARs for endpoints of nanoparticles in different experimental conditions encoded via quasi-SMILES. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 927:172119. [PMID: 38569951 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.172119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
Simulation of the physicochemical and biochemical behavior of nanomaterials has its own specifics. However, the main goal of modeling for both traditional substances and nanomaterials is the same. This is an ecologic risk assessment. The universal indicator of toxicity is the n-octanol/water partition coefficient. Mutagenicity indicates the possibility of future undesirable environmental effects, possibly greater than toxicity. Models have been proposed for the octanol/water distribution coefficient of gold nanoparticles and the mutagenicity of silver nanoparticles. Unlike the previous studies, here the models are built using an updated scheme, which includes two improvements. Firstly, the computing involves a new criterion for prediction potential, the so-called coefficient of conformism of a correlative prediction (CCCP); secondly, the Las Vegas algorithm is used to select the potentially most promising models from a group of models obtained by the Monte Carlo algorithm. Apparently, CCCP is a measure of the predictive potential (not only correlation). This can give an advantage in developing a model in comparison to using the classic determination coefficient. Likely, CCCP can be more informative than the classical determination coefficient. The Las Vegas algorithm is able to improve the model obtained by the Monte Carlo method.

Abstract
Monoamine oxidases are the enzymes involved in the management of brain homeostasis through oxidative deamination of monoamines such as neurotransmitters, tyramine etc. The excessive production of monoamine oxidase-B specifically results in numerous neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Inhibitors of monoamine oxidase-B are applied in the management of these disorders. Here in this article we have developed robust hybrid descriptor based QSAR models related to 123 monoamine oxidase-B inhibitors through CORAL software by means of Monte Carlo optimization method. Three target functions were applied to prepare QSAR models and three splits were made for each target function. The most reliable, robust and better predictive QSAR models were developed with TF3 (correlation intensity index -index of ideality of correlation). Correlation intensity index showed positive effect on QSAR models. The structural features obtained from the QSAR modeling were incorporated in newly designed molecules and exhibited positive effect on their endpoint. Significant binding interactions were represented by these molecules in docking studies. Molecule B5 displayed prominent pIC50 (8.3) and binding affinity (-11.5 kcal mol-1) towards monoamine oxidase-B.

Abstract
Mutagenicity is one of the most dangerous properties from the point of view of medicine and ecology. Experimental determination of mutagenicity remains a costly process, which makes it attractive to identify new hazardous compounds based on available experimental data through in silico methods or quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR). A system for constructing groups of random models is proposed for comparing various molecular features extracted from SMILES and graphs. For mutagenicity (mutagenicity values were expressed by the logarithm of the number of revertants per nanomole assayed by Salmonella typhimurium TA98-S9 microsomal preparation) models, the Morgan connectivity values are more informative than the comparison of quality for different rings in molecules. The resulting models were tested with the previously proposed model self-consistency system. The average value of the determination coefficient for the validation set is 0.8737 ± 0.0312.

Abstract
Simplified molecular input-line entry systems (SMILES) are the representation of the molecular structure that can be used to establish quantitative structure-property/activity relationships (QSPRs/QSARs) for various endpoints expressed as mathematical functions of the molecular architecture. Quasi-SMILES is extending the traditional SMILES by means of additional symbols that reflect experimental conditions. Using the quasi-SMILES models of toxicity to tadpoles gives the possibility to build up models by taking into account the time of exposure. Toxic effects of experimental situations expressed via 188 quasi-SMILES (the negative logarithm of molar concentrations which lead to lethal 50% tadpoles effected during 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, and 96 h) were modelled with good results (the average determination coefficient for the validation sets is about 0.97). In this way, we developed new models for this amphibian endpoint, which is poorly studied.

Abstract
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) which is resulted from the BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase (TK) chimeric oncoprotein, is a malignant clonal disorder of hematopoietic stem cells. Imatinib is used as an inhibitor of BCR-ABL TK in the treatment of CML patients. The main object of the present manuscript is focused on constructing quantitative activity relationships (QSARs) models for the prediction of inhibition potencies of a large series of imatinib derivatives against BCR-ABL TK. Herren, the inbuilt Monte Carlo algorithm of CORAL software is employed to develop QSAR models. The SMILES notations of chemical structures are used to compute the descriptor of correlation weights (CWs). QSAR models are established using the balance of correlation method with the index of ideality of correlation (IIC). The data set of 306 molecules is randomly divided into three splits. In QSAR modeling, the numerical value of R2, Q2, and IIC for the validation set of splits 1 to 3 are in the range of 0.7180-0.7755, 0.6891-0.7561, and 0.4431-0.8611 respectively. The numerical result of [Formula: see text] > 0.5 for all three constructed models in the Y-randomization test validate the reliability of established models. The promoters of increase/decrease for pIC50 are recognized and used for the mechanistic interpretation of structural attributes.

Abstract
The application of QSAR along with other in silico tools like molecular docking, and molecular dynamics provide a lot of promise for finding new treatments for life-threatening diseases like Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The present study is an attempt to develop Monte Carlo algorithm-based QSAR models using freely available CORAL software. The experimental data on the α-amylase inhibition by a series of benzothiazole-linked hydrazone/2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrids were selected as endpoint for the model generation. Initially, a total of eight QSAR models were built using correlation intensity index (CII) as a criterion of predictive potential. The model developed from split 6 using CII was the most reliable because of the highest numerical value of the determination coefficient of the validation set (r2VAL = 0.8739). The important structural fragments responsible for altering the endpoint were also extracted from the best-built model. With the goal of improved prediction quality and lower prediction errors, the validated models were used to build consensus models. Molecular docking was used to know the binding mode and pose of the selected derivatives. Further, to get insight into their metabolism by living beings, ADME studies were investigated using internet freeware, SwissADME.

Abstract
Amphibian populations are undergoing a global decline worldwide. Such decline has been attributed to their unique physiology, ecology, and exposure to multiple stressors including chemicals, temperature, and biological hazards such as fungi of the Batrachochytrium genus, viruses such as Ranavirus, and habitat reduction. There are limited toxicity data for chemicals available for amphibians and few quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models have been developed and are publicly available. Such QSARs provide important tools to assess the toxicity of chemicals particularly in a data poor context. QSARs provide important tools to assess the toxicity of chemicals particularly when no toxicological data are available. This manuscript provides a description and validation of a regression-based QSAR model to predict, in a quantitative manner, acute lethal toxicity of aromatic chemicals in tadpoles of the Japanese brown frog (Rana japonica). QSAR models for acute median lethal molar concentrations (LC50-12 h) of waterborne chemicals using the Monte Carlo method were developed. The statistical characteristics of the QSARs were described as average values obtained from five random distributions into training and validation sets. Predictions from the model gave satisfactory results for the overall training set (R2 = 0.72 and RMSE = 0.33) and were even more robust for the validation set (R2 = 0.96 and RMSE = 0.11). Further development of QSAR models in amphibians, particularly for other life stages and species, are discussed.

CORAL: Development of a hybrid descriptor based QSTR model to predict the toxicity of dioxins and dioxin-like compounds with correlation intensity index and consensus modelling. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2022; 93:103893. [PMID: 35654373 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2022.103893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2022] [Revised: 05/21/2022] [Accepted: 05/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
In the present study, ninety-five halogenated dioxins and related chemicals (dibenzo-p-dioxins, dibenzofurans, biphenyls, and naphthalene) with endpoint pEC50 were used to develop twelve quantitative structure toxicity relationship (QSTR) models using inbuilt Monte Carlo algorithm of CORAL software. The hybrid optimal descriptor of correlation weights (DCW) using a combination of SMILES and HSG (hydrogen suppressed graph) was employed to generate QSTR models. Three target functions i.e. TF1 (WIIC=WCII=0), TF2 (WIIC= 0.3 & WCII=0) and TF3 (WIIC= 0.0 &WCII=0.3) were employed to develop robust QSTR models and the statistical outcomes of each target function were compared with each other. The correlation intensity index (CII) was found a reliable benchmark of the predictive potential for QSTR models. The numerical value of the determination coefficient of the validation set of split 1 computed by TF3 was found highest (RValid2=0.8438). The fragments responsible for the toxicity of dioxins and related chemicals were also identified in terms of the promoter of increase/decrease for pEC50. Three random splits (Split 1, Split 2 and Split 4) were selected for the extraction of the promoter of increase/decrease for pEC50. In the last, consensus modelling was performed using the intelligent consensus tool of DTC lab (https://dtclab.webs.com/software-tools). The original consensus model, which was created by combining four distinct models employing the split 4 arrangement, was more predictive for the validation set and the numerical value of the determination coefficient of the test set (validation set) was increased from 0.8133 to 0.9725. For the validation set of split 4, the mean absolute error (MAE 100%) was also lowered from 0.513 to 0.2739.

Abstract
Use of protective clothing is a simple and efficient way to reduce the contacts with mosquitoes and consequently the probability of transmission of diseases spread by them. This mechanical barrier can be enhanced by the application of repellents. Unfortunately the number of available repellents is limited. As a result, there is a crucial need to find new active and safer molecules repelling mosquitoes. In this context, a structure-activity relationship (SAR) model was proposed for the design of repellents active on clothing. It was computed from a dataset of 2027 chemicals for which repellent activity on clothing was measured against Aedes aegypti. Molecules were described by means of 20 molecular descriptors encoding physicochemical properties, topological information and structural features. A three-layer perceptron was used as statistical tool. An accuracy of 87% was obtained for both the training and test sets. Most of the wrong predictions can be explained. Avenues for increasing the performances of the model have been proposed.

Abstract
Robust quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) for hBACE-1 inhibitors (pIC50) for a large database (n = 1706) are established. New statistical criteria of the predictive potential of models are suggested and tested. These criteria are the index of ideality of correlation (IIC) and the correlation intensity index (CII). The system of self-consistent models is a new approach to validate the predictive potential of QSAR-models. The statistical quality of models obtained using the CORAL software (http://www.insilico.eu/coral) for the validation sets is characterized by the average determination coefficient R2v= 0.923, and RMSE =0.345. Three new promising molecular structures which can become inhibitors hBACE-1 are suggested.

Abstract
Liver toxicity of quantum dots varies with size, concentration, and other structural as well as experimental parameters. For modeling hepatotoxicity, the eclectic data associated with cadmium containing quantum dots have been used in the creation of quasiSMILES for their representation. The core diameter is normalized for wider applicability and the index of the ideality of correlation is applied to construct the better quantitative features toxicity relationship models. Total eight splits are created and the best model is obtained through split 1 with better prediction criteria of validation set objects. The values of all statistical criteria used in the quality determination of a QSAR model are within the specified range for all the eight toxicity models developed here. Factors like TGA ligand and 0.6-0.7 nm diameter are favorable for liver toxicity while L-cysteine ligand and 0.5-0.6 nm core diameter are helpful in the reduction of toxicity. Further, the intelligent consensus modeling process forms a total of 40 individual and 20 consensus models and the best individual and consensus models are 'Good' in MAE-based criteria. The consensus modeling enhances the prediction ability as well as the accuracy of the developed models and increases the applicability space of the built models for hepatotoxicity prediction of quantum dots.

Abstract
The application of ion liquids (ILs) as green solvents has attracted the attention of the scientific community. However, ILs may play the role of toxins. Even though ionic liquids may assist to minimise air pollution, but their discharge into aquatic ecosystems might result in significant water pollution due to their potential toxicity and inaccessibility to biodegradation. Recently, more attention has been paid to the toxicity of ILs on plants, bacteria, and humans. Here, a quantitative structure-toxicity relationship study (QSTR) based on the Monte Carlo method of CORAL software has been applied to estimate the logarithm of the half-maximal effective concentration of toxicity of ILs against leukemia rat cell line IPC-81 (logEC50). A hybrid optimal descriptor is used to build QSTR models for a large set of 304 diverse ILs including ammonium, imidazolium, morpholinium, phosphonium, piperidinium, pyridinium, pyrrolidinium, quinolinium, sulfonium, and protic ILs. The SMILES notations of Ils are utilized to compute the descriptor correlation weight (DCW). Four splits are made from the whole dataset and each split is randomly divided into four sets (training subsets and validation set). The index of ideality of correlation (IIC) is applied to evaluate the authenticity and robustness of the QSTR models. A QSTR model with statistical parameters R2=0.85, CCC =0.92, Q2=0.84, and MAE =0.25 for the validation set of the best split is considered as a prime model. The outliers and promoters of increase/decrease of logEC50 are extracted and the mechanistic interpretation of effective descriptors for the model is also offered.HighlightsGlobal SMILES-based QSAR model was developed to predict the toxicity of ILs.The CORAL software is used to model the ILs toxicity on IPC-81 leukemia rat cell lineIIC is tested as a criterion of predictive potential.The toxicological effects of ILs are discussed based on the proposed model.

Exploring biological efficacy of novel benzothiazole linked 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazole hybrids as efficient α-amylase inhibitors: Synthesis, characterization, inhibition, molecular docking, molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo based QSAR studies. Comput Biol Med 2021; 138:104876. [PMID: 34598068 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2021.104876] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2021] [Revised: 09/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
In an effort to explore a class of novel antidiabetic agents, we have made an effort to synergize the α-amylase inhibitory potential of 1,3-benzothiazole and 1,3,4-oxadiazole scaffolds by combining the two into a single structure via an ether linkage. The structure of synthesized benzothiazole clubbed oxadiazole derivatives are established by different spectral techniques. The synthesized hybrids are evaluated for their in vitro inhibitory potential against α-amylase. Compound 8f is found to be the most potent with a significant inhibition (87.5 ± 0.74% at 50 μg/mL, 82.27 ± 1.85% at 25 μg/mL and 79.94 ± 1.88% at 12.5 μg/mL) when compared to positive control acarbose (77.96 ± 2.06%, 71.17 ± 0.60%, 67.24 ± 1.16% at 50 μg/mL, 25 μg/mL and 12.5 μg/mL concentration). Molecular docking of the most potent enzyme inhibitor, 8f, shows promising interaction with the binding site of biological macromolecule Aspergillus oryzae α-amylase (PDB ID: 7TAA) and human pancreatic α-amylase (PDB ID: 3BAJ). To a step further, in-depth QSAR studies show a significant correlation between the experimental and the predicted inhibitory activities with the best Rvalidation2= 0.8701. The developed QSAR model can provide ample information about the structural features responsible for the increase and decrease of inhibitory activity. The mechanistic interpretation of the structure-activity relationship (SAR) is done with the help of combined computational calculations i.e. molecular docking and QSAR. Finally, molecular dynamic simulations are performed to get an insight into the binding mode of the most potent derivative with α-amylase from A. oryzae (PDB ID: 7TAA) and human pancreas (PDB ID: 3BAJ).

Abstract
Simplified molecular-input line-entry system (SMILES) notation and inbuilt Monte Carlo algorithm of CORAL software were employed to construct generative and prediction QSPR models for the analysis of the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 215 phenothiazine derivatives. The dataset was divided into four splits and each split was further divided into four sets. A hybrid descriptor, a combination of SMILES and hydrogen suppressed graph (HSG), was employed to build reliable and robust QSPR models. The role of the index of ideality of correlation (IIC) was also studied in depth. We performed a comparative study to predict PCE using two target functions (TF1 without IIC and TF2 with IIC). Eight QSPR models were developed and the models developed with TF2 was shown robust and reliable. The QSPR model generated from split 4 was considered a leading model. The different statistical benchmarks were computed for the lead model and these were rtraining set2=0.7784; rinvisible training set2=0.7955; rcalibration set2=0.7738; rvalidation set2=0.7506; Qtraining set2=0.7691; Qinvisible training set2=0.7850; Qcalibration set2=0.7501; Qvalidation set2=0.7085; IICtraining set = 0.8590; IICinvisible training set = 0.8297; IICcalibration set = 0.8796; IICvalidation set = 0.8293, etc. The promoters of increase and decrease of endpoint PCE were also extracted.
