RESUMEN
In silico prediction of cell line cytotoxicity considerably decreases time and financial costs during drug development of new antineoplastic agents. (Q)SAR models for the prediction of drug-like compound cytotoxicity in relation to nine breast cancer cell lines (T47D, ZR-75-1, MX1, Hs-578T, MCF7-DOX, MCF7, Bcap37, MCF7R, BT-20) were created by GUSAR software based on the data from ChEMBL database (v. 30). The separate datasets related with IC50 and IG50 values were used for the creation of (Q)SAR models for each cell line. Based on leave-one-out and 5F CV procedures, 24 reasonable (Q)SAR models were selected for the creation of a freely available web-application (BC CLC-Pred: https://www.way2drug.com/bc/) to predict substance cytotoxicity in relation to human breast cancer cell lines. The mean accuracies of prediction r2, RMSE, Balance Accuracy for the selected (Q)SAR models calculated by 5F CV were 0.599, 0.679 and 0.875, respectively. As a result, BC CLC-Pred provides simultaneous quantitative and qualitative predictions of IC50 and IG50 values for most of the nine breast cancer cell lines, which may be helpful in selecting promising compounds and optimizing lead compounds during the development of new antineoplastic agents against breast cancer.

The human gut microbiota (HGM) comprises a complex population of microorganisms that significantly affect human health, including their influence on xenobiotics metabolism. Many pharmaceuticals are taken orally and thus come into contact with HGM, which can metabolize them. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the effect of HGM on the fate of pharmaceuticals in the organism. We have collected information about over 600 compounds from more than eighty publications. At least half of them (329 compounds) are known to be metabolized by HGM. We have used PASS (Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances) software to build three classification SAR models for HGM-mediated drug metabolism prediction. The first model with an accuracy of prediction 0.85 estimates whether compounds will be metabolized by HGM. The second model with an average accuracy of prediction 0.92 estimates which bacterial genera are responsible for the drug metabolism. The third model with an average accuracy of prediction 0.92 estimates the biotransformation reactions during HGM-mediated drug metabolism. The created models were used to develop the freely available web application MDM-Pred (http://www.way2drug.com/mdm-pred/).

Many human diseases including cancer, degenerative and autoimmune disorders, diabetes and others are multifactorial. Pharmaceutical agents acting on a single target do not provide their efficient curation. Multitargeted drugs exhibiting pleiotropic pharmacological effects have certain advantages due to the normalization of the complex pathological processes of different etiology. Extracts of medicinal plants (EMP) containing multiple phytocomponents are widely used in traditional medicines for multifactorial disorders' treatment. Experimental studies of pharmacological potential for multicomponent compositions are quite expensive and time-consuming. In silico evaluation of EMP the pharmacological potential may provide the basis for selecting the most promising directions of testing and for identifying potential additive/synergistic effects. Multiphytoadaptogen (MPhA) containing 70 major phytocomponents of different chemical classes from 40 medicinal plant extracts has been studied inâ vitro, inâ vivo and in clinical researches. Antiproliferative and anti-tumor activities have been shown against some tumors as well as evidence-based therapeutic effects against age-related pathologies. In addition, the neuroprotective, antioxidant, antimutagenic, radioprotective, and immunomodulatory effects of MPhA were confirmed. Analysis of the PASS profiles of the biological activity of MPhA phytocomponents showed that most of the predicted anti-tumor and anti-metastatic effects were consistent with the results of laboratory and clinical studies. Antimutagenic, immunomodulatory, radioprotective, neuroprotective and anti-Parkinsonian effects were also predicted for most of the phytocomponents. Effects associated with positive effects on the male and female reproductive systems have been identified too. Thus, PASS and PharmaExpert can be used to evaluate the pharmacological potential of complex pharmaceutical compositions containing natural products.

Based on the prediction of biological activity spectra for several secondary metabolites of medicinal plants using the PASS computer program and validation in vitro of the predictions results the priority direction of the pharmaceutical composition Phytoladaptogene (PLA) development was determined. PLA is a complex of structurally diverse small organic compounds including biologically active substances of phytoadaptogenes (ginsenosides from Panax ginseng, rhodionin from Rhodiola rosea and others) compiled considering previously developed pharmaceutical compositions. Two variants of the pharmaceutical composition were studied: - the major and minor variants included 22 and 13 compounds, respectively. The probability of activity exceeds the probability of inactivity for 1400 out of 1945 pharmacological effects and mechanisms predicted by PASS for the major variant of PLA. The wide range of predicted activities is mainly due to the low structural similarity of constituent compounds. An in silico prediction indicates the possibilities of antitumor properties against bladder, stomach, colon, ovarian and cervical cancers both for minor and major PLA compositions. It was found that the highest probability values of activity were predicted for three mechanisms: apoptosis agonist, caspase-3 stimulant, and transcription factor NF-κB inhibitor. According to the PharmaExpert program they are associated with the antitumor effect against bladder cancer. Experimental validation was using the human bladder cancer cell line RT-112. The results of the MTT test have shown that the cytotoxicity of the major PLA variant is higher than that of the minor PLA variant. In vitro experiments performed using two methods (double staining with annexin V and propidium iodide and detection of active caspase-3 in cells) confirmed that the death of bladder cancer cells occurred via the apoptotic mechanism. The data obtained correspond to the results of the prediction and indicate advantages of the major PLA composition. Thus, PLA can become the basis for the development of a drug with the antitumor activity against bladder cancer. The antitumor activity predicted by PASS for other cancers may be the subject of further studies.

Metabolic stability refers to the susceptibility of compounds to the biotransformation; it is characterized by such pharmacokinetic parameters as half-life (T1/2) and clearance (CL). Generally, these parameters are estimated by in vitro assays, which are based on cells or subcellular fractions (mainly liver microsomal enzymes) and serve as models of the processes occurring in living organisms. Data obtained from the experiments are used to build QSAR (Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship) models. More than 8000 compounds with known CL and/or T1/2 values obtained in vitro using human liver microsomes were selected from the freely available ChEMBL v.27 database. GUSAR (General Unrestricted Structure-Activity Relationships) and PASS (Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances) softwares were used to make quantitative and classification models. The quality of the models was evaluated using 5-fold cross-validation. Compounds were subdivided into "stable" and "unstable" by means of the following threshold parameters: T1/2 = 30 minutes, CL = 20 ml/min/kg. The accuracy of the models ranged from 0.5 (calculated in 5-fold CV on the test set for the half-life prediction quantitative model) to 0.96 (calculated in 5-fold CV on the test set for the clearance prediction classification model).

Metabolite identification is an essential part of the drug discovery and development process. Experimental methods allow identifying metabolites and estimating their relative amount, but they require cost-intensive and time-consuming techniques. Computational methods for metabolite prediction are devoid of these shortcomings and may be applied at the early stage of drug discovery. In this study, we investigated the possibility of creating SAR models for the prediction of the qualitative metabolite yield ('major', 'minor', "trace" and "negligible") depending on species and biological experimental systems. In addition, we have created models for prediction of xenobiotic excretion depending on its administration route for different species. The prediction is based on an algorithm of naïve Bayes classifier implemented in PASS software. The average accuracy of prediction was 0.91 for qualitative metabolite yield prediction and 0.89 for prediction of xenobiotic excretion. The created models were included as a component of MetaTox web application, which allows predicting the xenobiotic metabolism pathways ( http://www.way2drug.com/mg ).

Existing data on structures and biological activities are limited and distributed unevenly across distinct molecular targets and chemical compounds. The question arises if these data represent an unbiased sample of the general population of chemical-biological interactions. To answer this question, we analyzed ChEMBL data for 87,583 molecules tested against 919 protein targets using supervised and unsupervised approaches. Hierarchical clustering of the Murcko frameworks generated using Chemistry Development Toolkit showed that the available data form a big diffuse cloud without apparent structure. In contrast hereto, PASS-based classifiers allowed prediction whether the compound had been tested against the particular molecular target, despite whether it was active or not. Thus, one may conclude that the selection of chemical compounds for testing against specific targets is biased, probably due to the influence of prior knowledge. We assessed the possibility to improve (Q)SAR predictions using this fact: PASS prediction of the interaction with the particular target for compounds predicted as tested against the target has significantly higher accuracy than for those predicted as untested (average ROC AUC are about 0.87 and 0.75, respectively). Thus, considering the existing bias in the data of the training set may increase the performance of virtual screening.

Simultaneous use of the drugs may lead to undesirable Drug-Drug Interactions (DDIs) in the human body. Many DDIs are associated with changes in drug metabolism that performed by Drug-Metabolizing Enzymes (DMEs). In this case, DDI manifests itself as a result of the effect of one drug on the biotransformation of other drug(s), its slowing down (in the case of inhibiting DME) or acceleration (in case of induction of DME), which leads to a change in the pharmacological effect of the drugs combination. We used OpeRational ClassificAtion (ORCA) system for categorizing DDIs. ORCA divides DDIs into five classes: contraindicated (class 1), provisionally contraindicated (class 2), conditional (class 3), minimal risk (class 4), no interaction (class 5). We collected a training set consisting of several thousands of drug pairs. Algorithm of PASS program was used for the first, second and third classes DDI prediction. Chemical descriptors called PoSMNA (Pairs of Substances Multilevel Neighbourhoods of Atoms) were developed and implemented in PASS software to describe in a machine-readable format drug substances pairs instead of the single molecules. The average accuracy of DDI class prediction is about 0.84. A freely available web resource for DDI prediction was developed (http://way2drug.com/ddi/).

The majority of xenobiotics undergo a number of chemical reactions known as biotransformation in human body. The biological activity, toxicity, and other properties of the metabolites may significantly differ from those of the parent compound. Not only xenobiotic itself and its final metabolites produced in large quantities, but the intermediate and final metabolites that are formed in trace quantities, can cause undesirable effects. We have developed a freely available web resource MetaTox (http://www.way2drug.com/mg/) for integral assessment of xenobiotics toxicity taking into account their metabolism in the humans. The generation of the metabolite structures is based on the reaction fragments. The estimates of the probability of the reaction of a certain class and the probability of site of biotransformation are used at the generation of the xenobiotic metabolism pathways. The web resource MetaTox allows researchers to assess the metabolism of compounds in the humans and to obtain assessment of their acute, chronic toxicity, and adverse effects.

Identifying amino acid positions that determine the specific interaction of proteins with small molecule ligands, is required for search of pharmaceutical targets, drug design, and solution of other biotechnology problems. We studied applicability of an original method SPrOS (specificity projection on sequence) developed to recognize functionally significant positions in amino acid sequences. The method allows residues specific to functional subgroups to be determined within the protein family based on their local surroundings in amino acid sequences. The efficiency of the method has been estimated on the protein kinase family. The residues associated with the protein specificity to inhibitors have been predicted. The results have been verified using 3D structures of protein-ligand complexes. Three small molecule inhibitors have been tested. Residues predicted with SPrOS either in contacted the inhibitor or influenced the conformation of the ligand-binding area. Excluding close homologues from the studied set makes it possible to decrease the number of difficult to interpret positions. The expediency of this procedure was determined by the relationship between an inhibitory spectrum and phylogenic partition. Thus, the method efficiency has been confirmed by matching the prediction results with the protein 3D structures.

Traditional knowledge guides the use of plants for restricted therapeutic indications, but their pharmacological actions may be found beyond their ethnic therapeutic indications employing emerging computational tools. In this context, the present study was envisaged to explore the novel pharmacological effect of Achyranthes aspera (A. aspera) using PASS and PharmaExpert software tools. Based on the predicted mechanisms of the antidepressant effect for all analysed phytoconstituents of A. aspera, one may suggest its significant antidepressant action. The possible mechanism of this novel pharmacological effect is the enhancement of serotonin release, in particular caused by hexatriacontane. Therefore, pharmacological validation of the methanolic extract, hexatriacontane rich (HRF) and hexatriacontane lacking fraction (HLF) of A. aspera was carried out using the Forced Swimming Test and Tail suspension test in mice. The cortical and hippocampal monoamine and their metabolite levels were measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A. aspera methanolic extract, HRF treatments showed a significant antidepressant effect comparable to imipramine. Further, the corresponding surge in cortical and hippocampal monoamine and their metabolite levels was also observed with these treatments. In conclusion, A. aspera has shown a significant antidepressant effect, possibly due to hexatriacontane, by raising monoamine levels.

Biotransformation is a process of the chemical modifications which may lead to the reactive metabolites, in particular the epoxides. Epoxide reactive metabolites may cause the toxic effects. The prediction of such metabolites is important for drug development and ecotoxicology studies. Epoxides are formed by some oxidation reactions, usually catalysed by cytochromes P450, and represent a large class of three-membered cyclic ethers. Identification of molecules, which may be epoxidized, and indication of the speciï¬c location of epoxide functional group (which is called SOE - site of epoxidation) are important for prediction of epoxide metabolites. Datasets from 355 molecules and 615 reactions were created for training and validation. The prediction of SOE is based on a combination of LMNA (Labelled Multilevel Neighbourhood of Atom) descriptors and Bayesian-like algorithm implemented in PASS software and MetaTox web-service. The average invariant accuracy of prediction (AUC) calculated in leave-one-out and 20-fold cross-validation procedures is 0.9. Prediction of epoxide formation based on the created SAR model is included as the component of MetaTox web-service ( http://www.way2drug.com/mg ).

Recognition of the phosphorylation sites in proteins is required for reconstruction of regulatory processes in living systems. This task is complicated because the phosphorylation motifs in amino acid sequences are considerably degenerated. To improve the prediction efficacy researchers often use additional descriptors, which should reflect physicochemical features of site-surrounding regions. We have evaluated the reasonability of this approach by applying molecular descriptors (MNA) for structural presentation of the peptide segments. Comparative testing was performed using the prognostic method PASS and two input data types: sets of the MNA descriptors represented peptides as chemical structures and amino acid sequences written using a one-letter code. Training sets were classified in accordance with the established types of the enzymes (protein kinases), modifying corresponding phosphorylation sites. The accuracy estimates obtained by prognosis validation for various classes of substrates were significantly different with both the letters and molecular descriptors. In case of the letter description, the prognosis accuracy demonstrated less dependence on the length of peptides in the training set, while in the case of structural descriptors the accuracy level was determined by the peptide size and descriptor characteristics (MNA levels). The maximal prognosis accuracy related to various kinase families was achieved at different sizes of molecular fragments covered by the MNA descriptors of corresponding levels. This obviously reflected structural differences in surroundings of phosphorylation sites modified by various protein kinases. The use of molecular descriptors provided the prognostic results comparable with the results obtained using traditional letter representation. The prognosis accuracy demonstrated less dependence on the method describing site-surrounding peptides at higher accuracy rates. Applying the MNA descriptors it is possible to achieve better accuracy in the cases when the letter description cannot provide acceptable accuracy.

Estimation of interactions between drug-like compounds and drug targets is very important for drug discovery and toxicity assessment. Using data extracted from the 19th version of the ChEMBL database ( https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembl ) as a training set and a Bayesian-like method realized in PASS software ( http://www.way2drug.com/PASSOnline ), we developed a computational tool for the prediction of interactions between protein targets and drug-like compounds. After training, PASS Targets became able to predict interactions of drug-like compounds with 2507 protein targets from different organisms based on analysis of structure-activity relationships for 589,107 different chemical compounds. The prediction accuracy, estimated as AUC ROC calculated by the leave-one-out cross-validation and 20-fold cross-validation procedures, was about 96%. Average AUC ROC value was about 90% for the external test set from approximately 700 known drugs interacting with 206 protein targets.

Applicability of our computer programs PASS and PharmaExpert to prediction of biological activity spectra of rather complex and structurally diverse phytocomponents of medicinal plants, both separately and in combinations has been evaluated. The web-resource on phytochemicals of 50 medicinal plants used in Ayurveda was created for the study of hidden therapeutic potential of Traditional Indian Medicine (TIM) (http://ayurveda.pharmaexpert.ru). It contains information on 50 medicinal plants, their using in TIM and their pharmacology activities, also as 1906 phytocomponents. PASS training set was updated by addition of information about 946 natural compounds; then the training procedure and validation were performed, to estimate the quality of PASS prediction. It was shown that the difference between the average accuracy of prediction obtained in leave-5%-out cross-validation (94,467%) and in leave-one-out cross-validation (94,605%) is very small. These results showed high predictive ability of the program. Results of biological activity spectra prediction for all phytocomponents included in our database are in good correspondence with the experimental data. Additional kinds of biological activity predicted with high probability provide the information about most promising directions of further studies. The analysis of prediction results of sets of phytocomponents in each of 50 medicinal plants was made by PharmaExpert software. Based on this analysis, we found that the combination of phytocomponents from Passiflora incarnata may exhibit nootropic, anticonvulsant and antidepressant effects. Experiments carried out in mice models confirmed the predicted effects of Passiflora incarnata extracts.

Using the GUSAR program, structure-activity relationships on inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) catalytic activity were quantitatively analyzed for twenty-six derivatives of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-isoindole, 2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolyzine, and benzothiophene in the concentration range of 0.6-700 nmol/liter IC50 values. Six statistically significant consensus QSAR models for prediction of IC50 values were designed based on MNA- and QNA-descriptors and their combinations. These models demonstrated high accuracy in the prediction of IC50 values for structures of both training and test sets. Structural fragments of the COX-2 inhibitors capable of strengthening or weakening the desired property were determined using the same program. This information can be taken into consideration on molecular design of new COX-2 inhibitors. It was shown that in most cases, the influence of structural fragments on the inhibitory activity of the studied compounds revealed with the GUSAR program coincided with the results of expert evaluation of their effects based on known experimental data, and this can be used for optimization of structures to change the value of their biological activity.

"Peptic ulcers" is the most frequent side effect of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Experimental data indicate that pathogenesis of peptic ulcers cannot be explained only by the inhibition of cyclooxygenases. The knowledge about other molecular mechanisms of action of drugs related with development of peptic ulcers could be useful for design of new safe NSAIDs. However, considerable time and material resources are needed for corresponding experimental research. For simplification of experimental search, we have developed an approach for in silico identification of probable molecular mechanisms of action of drugs related with its side effects. We have created the set of NSAIDs containing 85 substances with data about structures and side effects. The computer program PASS (Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances) predicting more than 3000 molecular mechanisms of action based on structural formula of substances was used to estimate unknown molecular mechanisms of action for these set of NSAIDs. Statistically significant relationships between predicted molecular mechanisms of action and development of peptic ulcers have been established. We have discovered twenty-six molecular mechanisms of action (two known previously and twenty-four new) which probably related with development of peptic ulcers. By analyzing of Gene Ontology data, signal and metabolic pathways, publications in Medline, we formulated hypotheses about the role of ten molecular mechanisms of action in pathogenesis of peptic ulcer.

The (Q)SAR models for evaluating the structure-property relationships, fit for prediction of drug interactions with P-glycoprotein as inhibitors or substrates, were constructed using PASS and GUSAR software. The models were constructed and validated on the basis of information on the structure and characteristics of 256 and 94 compounds used as P-glycoprotein substrates and inhibitors, respectively. The initial samples were divided 80:20 into training and test samples. The best prediction accuracy for the test samples was 78% for P-glycoprotein substrate prediction (PASS) and 89% for inhibitor prediction (GUSAR).

The several predictive models based on two well-known methods PASS and SIMCA were created. These models predict a type of physiological response of steroid compounds binding to nuclear receptors of steroid hormones. We considered 10 variants: the agonists and the antagonists of estrogen, progesterone, androgen, glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors respectively. Two different sets of descriptors were used during SIMCA (the Dragon descriptors and indices of similarity). The results of discriminant analysis are good enough with average accuracy of 80-85%.
