RESUMO

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) is a superfamily of heme-containing oxidizing enzymes involved in the metabolism of a wide range of medicines, xenobiotics, and endogenous compounds. Five of the CYPs (1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, and 3A4) are responsible for metabolizing the vast majority of approved drugs. Adverse drug-drug interactions, many of which are mediated by CYPs, are one of the important causes for the premature termination of drug development and drug withdrawal from the market. In this work, we reported in silicon classification models to predict the inhibitory activity of molecules against these five CYP isoforms using our recently developed FP-GNN deep learning method. The evaluation results showed that, to the best of our knowledge, the multi-task FP-GNN model achieved the best predictive performance with the highest average AUC (0.905), F1 (0.779), BA (0.819), and MCC (0.647) values for the test sets, even compared to advanced machine learning, deep learning, and existing models. Y-scrambling testing confirmed that the results of the multi-task FP-GNN model were not attributed to chance correlation. Furthermore, the interpretability of the multi-task FP-GNN model enables the discovery of critical structural fragments associated with CYPs inhibition. Finally, an online webserver called DEEPCYPs and its local version software were created based on the optimal multi-task FP-GNN model to detect whether compounds bear potential inhibitory activity against CYPs, thereby promoting the prediction of drug-drug interactions in clinical practice and could be used to rule out inappropriate compounds in the early stages of drug discovery and/or identify new CYPs inhibitors.

RESUMO

The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway is one of the most important intracellular pathways involved in cell proliferation, growth, differentiation, and survival. Therefore, this route is a prospective biological target for treating various human diseases, such as tumors, neurodegenerative diseases, pulmonary fibrosis, and diabetes. An increasing number of clinical studies emphasize the necessity of developing novel molecules targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. This review focuses on recent advances in ATP-competitive inhibitors, allosteric inhibitors, covalent inhibitors, and proteolysis-targeting chimeras against the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, and highlights possible solutions for overcoming the toxicities and acquired drug resistance of currently available drugs. We also provide recommendations for the future design and development of promising drugs targeting this pathway.

RESUMO

PARP (poly ADP-ribose polymerase) family is a crucial DNA repair enzyme that responds to DNA damage, regulates apoptosis, and maintains genome stability; therefore, PARP inhibitors represent a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of various human diseases including COVID-19. In this study, a multi-task FP-GNN (Fingerprint and Graph Neural Networks) deep learning framework was proposed to predict the inhibitory activity of molecules against four PARP isoforms (PARP-1, PARP-2, PARP-5A, and PARP-5B). Compared with baseline predictive models based on four conventional machine learning methods such as RF, SVM, XGBoost, and LR as well as six deep learning algorithms such as DNN, Attentive FP, MPNN, GAT, GCN, and D-MPNN, the evaluation results indicate that the multi-task FP-GNN method achieves the best performance with the highest average BA, F1, and AUC values of 0.753 ± 0.033, 0.910 ± 0.045, and 0.888 ± 0.016 for the test set. In addition, Y-scrambling testing successfully verified that the model was not results of chance correlation. More importantly, the interpretability of the multi-task FP-GNN model enabled the identification of key structural fragments associated with the inhibition of each PARP isoform. To facilitate the use of the multi-task FP-GNN model in the field, an online webserver called PARPi-Predict and its local version software were created to predict whether compounds bear potential inhibitory activity against PARPs, thereby contributing to design and discover better selective PARP inhibitors.

RESUMO

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major contributor to global cancer incidence and mortality. Many pathways are involved in the development of HCC and various proteins including mTOR and HDACs have been identified as potential drug targets for HCC treatment. In the present study, two series of novel hybrid molecules targeting mTOR and HDACs were designed and synthesized based on parent inhibitors (MLN0128 and PP121 for mTOR, SAHA for HDACs) by using a fusion-type molecular hybridization strategy. In vitro antiproliferative assays demonstrated that these novel hybrids with suitable linker lengths exhibited broad cytotoxicity against various cancer cell lines, with significant activity against HepG2 cells. Notably, DI06, an MLN0128-based hybrid, exhibited antiproliferative activity against HepG2 cells with an IC50 value of 1.61 µM, which was comparable to those of both parent drugs (MLN0128, IC50 = 2.13 µM and SAHA, IC50 = 2.26 µM). In vitro enzyme inhibition assays indicated that DI06, DI07 and DI17 (PP121-based hybrid) exhibited nanomolar inhibitory activity against mTOR kinase and HDACs (e.g., HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, HADC6 and HADC8). Cellular studies and western blot analyses uncovered that in HepG2 cells, DI06 and DI17 induced cell apoptosis by targeting mTOR and HDACs, blocked the cell cycle at the G0/G1 phase and suppressed cell migration. The potential binding modes of the hybrids (DI06 and DI17) with mTOR and HDACs were investigated by molecular docking. DI06 displayed better stability in rat liver microsomes than DI07 and DI17. Collectively, DI06 as a novel mTOR and HDACs inhibitor presented here warrants further investigation as a potential treatment of HCC.
