Combining Drug and Gene Similarity Measures for Drug-Target Elucidation
Understanding drugs and their modes of action is a fundamental challenge in systems medicine. Key to addressing this challenge is the elucidation of drug targets, an important step in the search for new drugs or novel targets for existing drugs. Incorporating multiple biological information sources is of essence for improving the accuracy of drug target prediction. In this article, we introduce...
متن کاملPredicting drug-target interaction for new drugs using enhanced similarity measures and super-target clustering1
Predicting drug-target interaction using computational approaches is an important step in drug discovery and repositioning. To predict whether there will be an interaction between a drug and a target, most existing methods identify similar drugs and targets in the database. The prediction is then made based on the known interactions of these drugs and targets. This idea is promising. However, t...
متن کاملDrug target identification using side-effect similarity.
Targets for drugs have so far been predicted on the basis of molecular or cellular features, for example, by exploiting similarity in chemical structure or in activity across cell lines. We used phenotypic side-effect similarities to infer whether two drugs share a target. Applied to 746 marketed drugs, a network of 1018 side effect-driven drug-drug relations became apparent, 261 of which are f...
متن کاملKinetoplast DNA: A Promising Drug Target for Treatment of Leishmaniasis
Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne zoonotic disease caused by various species of the genus Leishmania, (trypanosomatidae family) that is transmitted by phlebotomine sandflies. The disease can present in a range of clinical forms, including dermal lesions, metastasis mucocutaneous forms, and fatal visceral forms. In this non-systematic review, we aimed at introducing the role of kinetoplast DNA (kD...
