Virtual screening of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors using quantitative structure-activity relationship-based artificial intelligence and molecular docking of hit compounds. Comput Biol Chem 2021; 95:107597. [PMID: 34800858 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiolchem.2021.107597] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2021] [Revised: 10/25/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are becoming an essential drug in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus; however, some classes of these drugs exert side effects, including joint pain and pancreatitis. Studies suggest that these side effects might be related to secondary inhibition of DPP-8 and DPP-9. In this study, we identified DPP-4-inhibitor hit compounds selective against DPP-8 and DPP-9. We built a virtual screening workflow using a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) strategy based on artificial intelligence to allow faster screening of millions of molecules for the DPP-4 target relative to other screening methods. Five regression machine learning algorithms and four classification machine learning algorithms were applied to build virtual screening workflows, with the QSAR model applied using support vector regression (R2pred 0.78) and the classification QSAR model using the random forest algorithm with 92.2% accuracy. Virtual screening results of > 10 million molecules obtained 2 716 hits compounds with a pIC50 value of > 7.5. Additionally, molecular docking results of several potential hit compounds for DPP-4, DPP-8, and DPP-9 identified CH0002 as showing high inhibitory potential against DPP-4 and low inhibitory potential for DPP-8 and DPP-9 enzymes. These results demonstrated the effectiveness of this technique for identifying DPP-4-inhibitor hit compounds selective for DPP-4 and against DPP-8 and DPP-9 and suggest its potential efficacy for applications to discover hit compounds of other targets.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic non-communicable disease caused by several different routes, which has attracted increasing attention. In order to speed up the development of new selective drugs, machine learning (ML) technology has been applied in the process of diabetes drug development, which opens up a new blueprint for drug design. This review provides a comprehensive portrayal of the application of ML in antidiabetic drug use.

BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2019; 2019:2905203. [PMID: 30906770 PMCID: PMC6398071 DOI: 10.1155/2019/2905203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2018] [Revised: 01/10/2019] [Accepted: 01/19/2019] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
The selection of the most relevant molecular descriptors to describe a target variable in the context of QSAR (Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship) modelling is a challenging combinatorial optimization problem. In this paper, a novel software tool for addressing this task in the context of regression and classification modelling is presented. The methodology that implements the tool is organized into two phases. The first phase uses a multiobjective evolutionary technique to perform the selection of subsets of descriptors. The second phase performs an external validation of the chosen descriptors subsets in order to improve reliability. The tool functionalities have been illustrated through a case study for the estimation of the ready biodegradation property as an example of classification QSAR modelling. The results obtained show the usefulness and potential of this novel software tool that aims to reduce the time and costs of development in the drug discovery process.

Abstract
Drug-drug interaction (DDI) defines a situation in which one drug affects the activity of another when both are administered together. DDI is a common cause of adverse drug reactions and sometimes also leads to improved therapeutic effects. Therefore, it is of great interest to discover novel DDIs according to their molecular properties and mechanisms in a robust and rigorous way. This paper attempts to predict effective DDIs using the following properties: (1) chemical interaction between drugs; (2) protein interactions between the targets of drugs; and (3) target enrichment of KEGG pathways. The data consisted of 7323 pairs of DDIs collected from the DrugBank and 36,615 pairs of drugs constructed by randomly combining two drugs. Each drug pair was represented by 465 features derived from the aforementioned three categories of properties. The random forest algorithm was adopted to train the prediction model. Some feature selection techniques, including minimum redundancy maximum relevance and incremental feature selection, were used to extract key features as the optimal input for the prediction model. The extracted key features may help to gain insights into the mechanisms of DDIs and provide some guidelines for the relevant clinical medication developments, and the prediction model can give new clues for identification of novel DDIs.
