Multi-Targeted Natural Products Evaluation Based on Biological Activity Prediction with PASS

Lagunin, Alexey, Filimonov, Dmitry, Poroikov, Vladimir·2010·Current Pharmaceutical Design

Abstract

Natural products found a wide use in folk medicine. Presently, when routine development of new drugs faced a considerable challenge, they become an inspiration and valuable source in drugs discovery. Rather complex and diverse chemical structures of natural compounds provide a basis for modulation of different biological targets. Natural compounds exhibit a multitargeted action that may lead to additive/synergistic or antagonistic effects. Rational design of more safe and potent pharmaceuticals requires an estimation of probable multiple actions of natural products. Our software PASS can perform such estimation. It predicts with reasonable accuracy over 3500 pharmacotherapeutic effects, mechanisms of action, interaction with the metabolic system, and specific toxicity for drug-like molecules on the basis of their structural formulae. We analyzed PASS predictions utilizing PharmaExpert, which performs selection of compounds with multiple mechanisms of action, analysis of activity-activity relationships and drug-drug interactions. The paper describes an application of PASS and PharmaExpert to the evaluation of biological activity of natural compounds including marine sponge alkaloids, triterpenoids of lupane group, and their derivatives. Proposed computer-aided methods can generate combinatorial libraries of macrolides. They help to select the most promising pharmaceutical leads with the required properties. Case study, based on the analysis of biological activity spectra predicted for St John's Wort constituents, clearly demonstrates capabilities of computational methods in the evaluation of multitargeted actions, additive/synergistic and/or antagonistic effects of natural products.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
