IMCHGAN: Inductive Matrix Completion With Heterogeneous Graph Attention Networks for Drug-Target Interactions Prediction

CKG-IMC: An inductive matrix completion method enhanced by CKG and GNN for Alzheimer's disease compound-protein interactions prediction

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most prevalent chronic neurodegenerative disorders globally, with a rapidly growing population of AD patients and currently no effective therapeutic interventions available. Consequently, the development of therapeutic anti-AD drugs and the identification of AD targets represent one of the most urgent tasks. In this study, in addition to considering known drugs and targets, we explore compound-protein interactions (CPIs) between compounds and proteins relevant to AD. We propose a deep learning model called CKG-IMC to predict Alzheimer's disease compound-protein interaction relationships. CKG-IMC comprises three modules: a collaborative knowledge graph (CKG), a principal neighborhood aggregation graph neural network (PNA), and an inductive matrix completion (IMC). The collaborative knowledge graph is used to learn semantic associations between entities, PNA is employed to extract structural features of the relationship network, and IMC is utilized for CPIs prediction. Compared with a total of 16 baseline models based on similarities, knowledge graphs, and graph neural networks, our model achieves state-of-the-art performance in experiments of 10-fold cross-validation and independent test. Furthermore, we use CKG-IMC to predict compounds interacting with two confirmed AD targets, 42-amino-acid β-amyloid (Aβ42) protein and microtubule-associated protein tau (tau protein), as well as proteins interacting with five FDA-approved anti-AD drugs. The results indicate that the majority of predictions are supported by literature, and molecular docking experiments demonstrate a strong affinity between the predicted compounds and targets.

Delving into their core principles and multifaceted applications, we uncover their pivotal roles in catalyzing de novo drug design, predicting intricate molecular properties and deciphering elusive drug-target interactions. Despite challenges, these attention-based architectures hold unparalleled promise to drive transformative breakthroughs and accelerate progress in pharmaceutical research.

Drug repurposing based on the DTD-GNN graph neural network: revealing the relationships among drugs, targets and diseases

MOTIVATION

The rational modelling of the relationship among drugs, targets and diseases is crucial for drug retargeting. While significant progress has been made in studying binary relationships, further research is needed to deepen our understanding of ternary relationships. The application of graph neural networks in drug retargeting is increasing, but further research is needed to determine the appropriate modelling method for ternary relationships and how to capture their complex multi-feature structure.

RESULTS

The aim of this study was to construct relationships among drug, targets and diseases. To represent the complex relationships among these entities, we used a heterogeneous graph structure. Additionally, we propose a DTD-GNN model that combines graph convolutional networks and graph attention networks to learn feature representations and association information, facilitating a more thorough exploration of the relationships. The experimental results demonstrate that the DTD-GNN model outperforms other graph neural network models in terms of AUC, Precision, and F1-score. The study has important implications for gaining a comprehensive understanding of the relationships between drugs and diseases, as well as for further research and application in exploring the mechanisms of drug-disease interactions. The study reveals these relationships, providing possibilities for innovative therapeutic strategies in medicine.

A comparative analysis of computational drug repurposing approaches: proposing a novel tensor-matrix-tensor factorization method

Efficient drug discovery relies on drug repurposing, an important and open research field. This work presents a novel factorization method and a practical comparison of different approaches for drug repurposing. First, we propose a novel tensor-matrix-tensor (TMT) formulation as a new data array method with a gradient-based factorization procedure. Additionally, this paper examines and contrasts four computational drug repurposing approaches-factorization-based methods, machine learning methods, deep learning methods, and graph neural networks-to fulfill the second purpose. We test the strategies on two datasets and assess each approach's performance, drawbacks, problems, and benefits based on results. The results demonstrate that deep learning techniques work better than other strategies and that their results might be more reliable. Ultimately, graph neural methods need to be in an inductive manner to have a reliable prediction.

Application of artificial intelligence and machine learning in drug repurposing

The purpose of drug repurposing is to leverage previously approved drugs for a particular disease indication and apply them to another disease. It can be seen as a faster and more cost-effective approach to drug discovery and a powerful tool for achieving precision medicine. In addition, drug repurposing can be used to identify therapeutic candidates for rare diseases and phenotypic conditions with limited information on disease biology. Machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) methodologies have enabled the construction of effective, data-driven repurposing pipelines by integrating and analyzing large-scale biomedical data. Recent technological advances, especially in heterogeneous network mining and natural language processing, have opened up exciting new opportunities and analytical strategies for drug repurposing. In this review, we first introduce the challenges in repurposing approaches and highlight some success stories, including those during the COVID-19 pandemic. Next, we review some existing computational frameworks in the literature, organized on the basis of the type of biomedical input data analyzed and the computational algorithms involved. In conclusion, we outline some exciting new directions that drug repurposing research may take, as pioneered by the generative AI revolution.

GSL-DTI: Graph structure learning network for Drug-Target interaction prediction

MOTIVATION

Drug-target interaction prediction is an important area of research to predict whether there is an interaction between a drug molecule and its target protein. It plays a critical role in drug discovery and development by facilitating the identification of potential drug candidates and expediting the overall process. Given the time-consuming, expensive, and high-risk nature of traditional drug discovery methods, the prediction of drug-target interactions has become an indispensable tool. Using machine learning and deep learning to tackle this class of problems has become a mainstream approach, and graph-based models have recently received much attention in this field. However, many current graph-based Drug-Target Interaction (DTI) prediction methods rely on manually defined rules to construct the Drug-Protein Pair (DPP) network during the DPP representation learning process. However, these methods fail to capture the true underlying relationships between drug molecules and target proteins.

RESULTS

We propose GSL-DTI, an automatic graph structure learning model used for predicting drug-target interactions (DTIs). Initially, we integrate large-scale heterogeneous networks using a graph convolution network based on meta-paths, effectively learning the representations of drugs and target proteins. Subsequently, we construct drug-protein pairs based on these representations. In contrast to previous studies that construct DPP networks based on manual rules, our method introduces an automatic graph structure learning approach. This approach utilizes a filter gate on the affinity scores of DPPs and relies on the classification loss of downstream tasks to guide the learning of the underlying DPP network structure. Based on the learned DPP network, we transform the prediction of drug-target interactions into a node classification problem. The comprehensive experiments conducted on three public datasets have shown the superiority of GSL-DTI in the tasks of DTI prediction. Additionally, GSL-DTI provides a fresh perspective for advancing research in graph structure learning for DTI prediction.

Predicting drug-protein interactions by preserving the graph information of multi source data

Examining potential drug-target interactions (DTIs) is a pivotal component of drug discovery and repurposing. Recently, there has been a significant rise in the use of computational techniques to predict DTIs. Nevertheless, previous investigations have predominantly concentrated on assessing either the connections between nodes or the consistency of the network's topological structure in isolation. Such one-sided approaches could severely hinder the accuracy of DTI predictions. In this study, we propose a novel method called TTGCN, which combines heterogeneous graph convolutional neural networks (GCN) and graph attention networks (GAT) to address the task of DTI prediction. TTGCN employs a two-tiered feature learning strategy, utilizing GAT and residual GCN (R-GCN) to extract drug and target embeddings from the diverse network, respectively. These drug and target embeddings are then fused through a mean-pooling layer. Finally, we employ an inductive matrix completion technique to forecast DTIs while preserving the network's node connectivity and topological structure. Our approach demonstrates superior performance in terms of area under the curve and area under the precision-recall curve in experimental comparisons, highlighting its significant advantages in predicting DTIs. Furthermore, case studies provide additional evidence of its ability to identify potential DTIs.

Drug repositioning with adaptive graph convolutional networks

MOTIVATION

Drug repositioning is an effective strategy to identify new indications for existing drugs, providing the quickest possible transition from bench to bedside. With the rapid development of deep learning, graph convolutional networks (GCNs) have been widely adopted for drug repositioning tasks. However, prior GCNs based methods exist limitations in deeply integrating node features and topological structures, which may hinder the capability of GCNs.

RESULTS

In this study, we propose an adaptive GCNs approach, termed AdaDR, for drug repositioning by deeply integrating node features and topological structures. Distinct from conventional graph convolution networks, AdaDR models interactive information between them with adaptive graph convolution operation, which enhances the expression of model. Concretely, AdaDR simultaneously extracts embeddings from node features and topological structures and then uses the attention mechanism to learn adaptive importance weights of the embeddings. Experimental results show that AdaDR achieves better performance than multiple baselines for drug repositioning. Moreover, in the case study, exploratory analyses are offered for finding novel drug-disease associations.

Attention is all you need: utilizing attention in AI-enabled drug discovery

Recently, attention mechanism and derived models have gained significant traction in drug development due to their outstanding performance and interpretability in handling complex data structures. This review offers an in-depth exploration of the principles underlying attention-based models and their advantages in drug discovery. We further elaborate on their applications in various aspects of drug development, from molecular screening and target binding to property prediction and molecule generation. Finally, we discuss the current challenges faced in the application of attention mechanisms and Artificial Intelligence technologies, including data quality, model interpretability and computational resource constraints, along with future directions for research. Given the accelerating pace of technological advancement, we believe that attention-based models will have an increasingly prominent role in future drug discovery. We anticipate that these models will usher in revolutionary breakthroughs in the pharmaceutical domain, significantly accelerating the pace of drug development.

AMGDTI: drug-target interaction prediction based on adaptive meta-graph learning in heterogeneous network

Prediction of drug-target interactions (DTIs) is essential in medicine field, since it benefits the identification of molecular structures potentially interacting with drugs and facilitates the discovery and reposition of drugs. Recently, much attention has been attracted to network representation learning to learn rich information from heterogeneous data. Although network representation learning algorithms have achieved success in predicting DTI, several manually designed meta-graphs limit the capability of extracting complex semantic information. To address the problem, we introduce an adaptive meta-graph-based method, termed AMGDTI, for DTI prediction. In the proposed AMGDTI, the semantic information is automatically aggregated from a heterogeneous network by training an adaptive meta-graph, thereby achieving efficient information integration without requiring domain knowledge. The effectiveness of the proposed AMGDTI is verified on two benchmark datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that the AMGDTI method overall outperforms eight state-of-the-art methods in predicting DTI and achieves the accurate identification of novel DTIs. It is also verified that the adaptive meta-graph exhibits flexibility and effectively captures complex fine-grained semantic information, enabling the learning of intricate heterogeneous network topology and the inference of potential drug-target relationship.

A general hypergraph learning algorithm for drug multi-task predictions in micro-to-macro biomedical networks

The powerful combination of large-scale drug-related interaction networks and deep learning provides new opportunities for accelerating the process of drug discovery. However, chemical structures that play an important role in drug properties and high-order relations that involve a greater number of nodes are not tackled in current biomedical networks. In this study, we present a general hypergraph learning framework, which introduces Drug-Substructures relationship into Molecular interaction Networks to construct the micro-to-macro drug centric heterogeneous network (DSMN), and develop a multi-branches HyperGraph learning model, called HGDrug, for Drug multi-task predictions. HGDrug achieves highly accurate and robust predictions on 4 benchmark tasks (drug-drug, drug-target, drug-disease, and drug-side-effect interactions), outperforming 8 state-of-the-art task specific models and 6 general-purpose conventional models. Experiments analysis verifies the effectiveness and rationality of the HGDrug model architecture as well as the multi-branches setup, and demonstrates that HGDrug is able to capture the relations between drugs associated with the same functional groups. In addition, our proposed drug-substructure interaction networks can help improve the performance of existing network models for drug-related prediction tasks.

Drug-Target Interaction Prediction via Graph Auto-Encoder and Multi-Subspace Deep Neural Networks

Computational prediction of drug-target interaction (DTI) is important for the new drug discovery. Currently, the deep neural network (DNN) has been widely used in DTI prediction. However, parameters of the DNN could be insufficiently trained and features of the data could be insufficiently utilized, because the DTI data is limited and its dimension is very high. To deal with the above problems, in this paper, a graph auto-encoder and multi-subspace deep neural network (GAEMSDNN) is designed. GAEMSDNN enhances its learning ability with a graph auto-encoder, a subspace layer and an ensemble layer. The graph auto-encoder can preserve the reconstruction information. The subspace layer can obtain different strong feature subsets. The ensemble layer in the GAEMSDNN can comprehensively utilize these strong feature subsets in a unified optimization framework. As a result, more features can be extracted from the network input and the DNN network can be better trained. In experiments, the results of GAEMSDNN are significantly improved compared to the previous methods, which validates the effectiveness of our strategies.

iGRLDTI: an improved graph representation learning method for predicting drug-target interactions over heterogeneous biological information network

MOTIVATION

The task of predicting drug-target interactions (DTIs) plays a significant role in facilitating the development of novel drug discovery. Compared with laboratory-based approaches, computational methods proposed for DTI prediction are preferred due to their high-efficiency and low-cost advantages. Recently, much attention has been attracted to apply different graph neural network (GNN) models to discover underlying DTIs from heterogeneous biological information network (HBIN). Although GNN-based prediction methods achieve better performance, they are prone to encounter the over-smoothing simulation when learning the latent representations of drugs and targets with their rich neighborhood information in HBIN, and thereby reduce the discriminative ability in DTI prediction.

RESULTS

In this work, an improved graph representation learning method, namely iGRLDTI, is proposed to address the above issue by better capturing more discriminative representations of drugs and targets in a latent feature space. Specifically, iGRLDTI first constructs an HBIN by integrating the biological knowledge of drugs and targets with their interactions. After that, it adopts a node-dependent local smoothing strategy to adaptively decide the propagation depth of each biomolecule in HBIN, thus significantly alleviating over-smoothing by enhancing the discriminative ability of feature representations of drugs and targets. Finally, a Gradient Boosting Decision Tree classifier is used by iGRLDTI to predict novel DTIs. Experimental results demonstrate that iGRLDTI yields better performance that several state-of-the-art computational methods on the benchmark dataset. Besides, our case study indicates that iGRLDTI can successfully identify novel DTIs with more distinguishable features of drugs and targets.

DEDTI versus IEDTI: efficient and predictive models of drug-target interactions

Drug repurposing is an active area of research that aims to decrease the cost and time of drug development. Most of those efforts are primarily concerned with the prediction of drug-target interactions. Many evaluation models, from matrix factorization to more cutting-edge deep neural networks, have come to the scene to identify such relations. Some predictive models are devoted to the prediction's quality, and others are devoted to the efficiency of the predictive models, e.g., embedding generation. In this work, we propose new representations of drugs and targets useful for more prediction and analysis. Using these representations, we propose two inductive, deep network models of IEDTI and DEDTI for drug-target interaction prediction. Both of them use the accumulation of new representations. The IEDTI takes advantage of triplet and maps the input accumulated similarity features into meaningful embedding corresponding vectors. Then, it applies a deep predictive model to each drug-target pair to evaluate their interaction. The DEDTI directly uses the accumulated similarity feature vectors of drugs and targets and applies a predictive model on each pair to identify their interactions. We have done a comprehensive simulation on the DTINet dataset as well as gold standard datasets, and the results show that DEDTI outperforms IEDTI and the state-of-the-art models. In addition, we conduct a docking study on new predicted interactions between two drug-target pairs, and the results confirm acceptable drug-target binding affinity between both predicted pairs.

EDC-DTI: An end-to-end deep collaborative learning model based on multiple information for drug-target interactions prediction

Innovations in drug-target interactions (DTIs) prediction accelerate the progression of drug development. The introduction of deep learning models has a dramatic impact on DTIs prediction, with a distinct influence on saving time and money in drug discovery. This study develops an end-to-end deep collaborative learning model for DTIs prediction, called EDC-DTI, to identify new targets for existing drugs based on multiple drug-target-related information including homogeneous information and heterogeneous information by the way of deep learning. Our end-to-end model is composed of a feature builder and a classifier. Feature builder consists of two collaborative feature construction algorithms that extract the molecular properties and the topology property of networks, and the classifier consists of a feature encoder and a feature decoder which are designed for feature integration and DTIs prediction, respectively. The feature encoder, mainly based on the improved graph attention network, incorporates heterogeneous information into drug features and target features separately. The feature decoder is composed of multiple neural networks for predictions. Compared with six popular baseline models, EDC-DTI achieves highest predictive performance in the case of low computational costs. Robustness tests demonstrate that EDC-DTI is able to maintain strong predictive performance on sparse datasets. As well, we use the model to predict the most likely targets to interact with Simvastatin (DB00641), Nifedipine (DB01115) and Afatinib (DB08916) as examples. Results show that most of the predictions can be confirmed by literature with clear evidence.

DeepMPF: deep learning framework for predicting drug-target interactions based on multi-modal representation with meta-path semantic analysis

BACKGROUND

Drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction has become a crucial prerequisite in drug design and drug discovery. However, the traditional biological experiment is time-consuming and expensive, as there are abundant complex interactions present in the large size of genomic and chemical spaces. For alleviating this phenomenon, plenty of computational methods are conducted to effectively complement biological experiments and narrow the search spaces into a preferred candidate domain. Whereas, most of the previous approaches cannot fully consider association behavior semantic information based on several schemas to represent complex the structure of heterogeneous biological networks. Additionally, the prediction of DTI based on single modalities cannot satisfy the demand for prediction accuracy.

METHODS

We propose a multi-modal representation framework of 'DeepMPF' based on meta-path semantic analysis, which effectively utilizes heterogeneous information to predict DTI. Specifically, we first construct protein-drug-disease heterogeneous networks composed of three entities. Then the feature information is obtained under three views, containing sequence modality, heterogeneous structure modality and similarity modality. We proposed six representative schemas of meta-path to preserve the high-order nonlinear structure and catch hidden structural information of the heterogeneous network. Finally, DeepMPF generates highly representative comprehensive feature descriptors and calculates the probability of interaction through joint learning.

RESULTS

To evaluate the predictive performance of DeepMPF, comparison experiments are conducted on four gold datasets. Our method can obtain competitive performance in all datasets. We also explore the influence of the different feature embedding dimensions, learning strategies and classification methods. Meaningfully, the drug repositioning experiments on COVID-19 and HIV demonstrate DeepMPF can be applied to solve problems in reality and help drug discovery. The further analysis of molecular docking experiments enhances the credibility of the drug candidates predicted by DeepMPF.

CONCLUSIONS

All the results demonstrate the effectively predictive capability of DeepMPF for drug-target interactions. It can be utilized as a useful tool to prescreen the most potential drug candidates for the protein. The web server of the DeepMPF predictor is freely available at http://120.77.11.78/DeepMPF/ , which can help relevant researchers to further study.

Neural Collective Matrix Factorization for integrated analysis of heterogeneous biomedical data

MOTIVATION

In many biomedical studies, there arises the need to integrate data from multiple directly or indirectly related sources. Collective matrix factorization (CMF) and its variants are models designed to collectively learn from arbitrary collections of matrices. The latent factors learnt are rich integrative representations that can be used in downstream tasks, such as clustering or relation prediction with standard machine-learning models. Previous CMF-based methods have numerous modeling limitations. They do not adequately capture complex non-linear interactions and do not explicitly model varying sparsity and noise levels in the inputs, and some cannot model inputs with multiple datatypes. These inadequacies limit their use on many biomedical datasets.

RESULTS

To address these limitations, we develop Neural Collective Matrix Factorization (NCMF), the first fully neural approach to CMF. We evaluate NCMF on relation prediction tasks of gene-disease association prediction and adverse drug event prediction, using multiple datasets. In each case, data are obtained from heterogeneous publicly available databases and used to learn representations to build predictive models. NCMF is found to outperform previous CMF-based methods and several state-of-the-art graph embedding methods for representation learning in our experiments. Our experiments illustrate the versatility and efficacy of NCMF in representation learning for seamless integration of heterogeneous data.

Supervised graph co-contrastive learning for drug-target interaction prediction

MOTIVATION

Identification of Drug-Target Interactions (DTIs) is an essential step in drug discovery and repositioning. DTI prediction based on biological experiments is time-consuming and expensive. In recent years, graph learning-based methods have aroused widespread interest and shown certain advantages on this task, where the DTI prediction is often modeled as a binary classification problem of the nodes composed of drug and protein pairs (DPPs). Nevertheless, in many real applications, labeled data are very limited and expensive to obtain. With only a few thousand labeled data, models could hardly recognize comprehensive patterns of DPP node representations, and are unable to capture enough commonsense knowledge, which is required in DTI prediction. Supervised contrastive learning gives an aligned representation of DPP node representations with the same class label. In embedding space, DPP node representations with the same label are pulled together, and those with different labels are pushed apart.

RESULTS

We propose an end-to-end supervised graph co-contrastive learning model for DTI prediction directly from heterogeneous networks. By contrasting the topology structures and semantic features of the drug-protein-pair network, as well as the new selection strategy of positive and negative samples, SGCL-DTI generates a contrastive loss to guide the model optimization in a supervised manner. Comprehensive experiments on three public datasets demonstrate that our model outperforms the SOTA methods significantly on the task of DTI prediction, especially in the case of cold start. Furthermore, SGCL-DTI provides a new research perspective of contrastive learning for DTI prediction.

AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION

The research shows that this method has certain applicability in the discovery of drugs, the identification of drug-target pairs and so on.

DTI-HETA: prediction of drug-target interactions based on GCN and GAT on heterogeneous graph

Drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction plays an important role in drug repositioning, drug discovery and drug design. However, due to the large size of the chemical and genomic spaces and the complex interactions between drugs and targets, experimental identification of DTIs is costly and time-consuming. In recent years, the emerging graph neural network (GNN) has been applied to DTI prediction because DTIs can be represented effectively using graphs. However, some of these methods are only based on homogeneous graphs, and some consist of two decoupled steps that cannot be trained jointly. To further explore GNN-based DTI prediction by integrating heterogeneous graph information, this study regards DTI prediction as a link prediction problem and proposes an end-to-end model based on HETerogeneous graph with Attention mechanism (DTI-HETA). In this model, a heterogeneous graph is first constructed based on the drug-drug and target-target similarity matrices and the DTI matrix. Then, the graph convolutional neural network is utilized to obtain the embedded representation of the drugs and targets. To highlight the contribution of different neighborhood nodes to the central node in aggregating the graph convolution information, a graph attention mechanism is introduced into the node embedding process. Afterward, an inner product decoder is applied to predict DTIs. To evaluate the performance of DTI-HETA, experiments are conducted on two datasets. The experimental results show that our model is superior to the state-of-the-art methods. Also, the identification of novel DTIs indicates that DTI-HETA can serve as a powerful tool for integrating heterogeneous graph information to predict DTIs.

Matrix factorization for biomedical link prediction and scRNA-seq data imputation: an empirical survey

Advances in high-throughput experimental technologies promote the accumulation of vast number of biomedical data. Biomedical link prediction and single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data imputation are two essential tasks in biomedical data analyses, which can facilitate various downstream studies and gain insights into the mechanisms of complex diseases. Both tasks can be transformed into matrix completion problems. For a variety of matrix completion tasks, matrix factorization has shown promising performance. However, the sparseness and high dimensionality of biomedical networks and scRNA-seq data have raised new challenges. To resolve these issues, various matrix factorization methods have emerged recently. In this paper, we present a comprehensive review on such matrix factorization methods and their usage in biomedical link prediction and scRNA-seq data imputation. Moreover, we select representative matrix factorization methods and conduct a systematic empirical comparison on 15 real data sets to evaluate their performance under different scenarios. By summarizing the experimental results, we provide general guidelines for selecting matrix factorization methods for different biomedical matrix completion tasks and point out some future directions to further improve the performance for biomedical link prediction and scRNA-seq data imputation.

Drug-target interaction predication via multi-channel graph neural networks

Drug-target interaction (DTI) is an important step in drug discovery. Although there are many methods for predicting drug targets, these methods have limitations in using discrete or manual feature representations. In recent years, deep learning methods have been used to predict DTIs to improve these defects. However, most of the existing deep learning methods lack the fusion of topological structure and semantic information in DPP representation learning process. Besides, when learning the DPP node representation in the DPP network, the different influences between neighboring nodes are ignored. In this paper, a new model DTI-MGNN based on multi-channel graph convolutional network and graph attention is proposed for DTI prediction. We use two independent graph attention networks to learn the different interactions between nodes for the topology graph and feature graph with different strengths. At the same time, we use a graph convolutional network with shared weight matrices to learn the common information of the two graphs. The DTI-MGNN model combines topological structure and semantic features to improve the representation learning ability of DPPs, and obtain the state-of-the-art results on public datasets. Specifically, DTI-MGNN has achieved a high accuracy in identifying DTIs (the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve is 0.9665).
