A comparative chemogenic analysis for predicting Drug-Target Pair via Machine Learning Approaches.

ABSTRACT: A computational technique for predicting the DTIs has now turned out to be an indispensable job during the process of drug finding. It tapers the exploration room for interactions by propounding possible interaction contenders for authentication through experiments of wet-lab which are known for their expensiveness and time consumption. Chemogenomics, an emerging research area focused on the systematic examination of the biological impact of a broad series of minute molecular-weighting ligands on a broad raiment of macromolecular target spots. Additionally, with the advancement in time, the complexity of the algorithms is increasing which may result in the entry of big data technologies like Spark in this field soon. In the presented work, we intend to offer an inclusive idea and realistic evaluation of the computational Drug Target Interaction projection approaches, to perform as a guide and reference for researchers who are carrying out work in a similar direction. Precisely, we first explain the data utilized in computational Drug Target Interaction prediction attempts like this. We then sort and explain the best and most modern techniques for the prediction of DTIs. Then, a realistic assessment is executed to show the projection performance of several illustrative approaches in various situations. Ultimately, we underline possible opportunities for additional improvement of Drug Target Interaction projection enactment and also linked study objectives.

Project description:Biological pest control (i.e. 'biocontrol') agents can have direct and indirect non-target impacts, and predicting these effects (especially indirect impacts) remains a central challenge in biocontrol risk assessment. The analysis of ecological networks offers a promising approach to understanding the community-wide impacts of biocontrol agents (via direct and indirect interactions). Independently, species traits and phylogenies have been shown to successfully predict species interactions and network structure (alleviating the need to collect quantitative interaction data), but whether these approaches can be combined to predict indirect impacts of natural enemies remains untested. Whether predictions of interactions (i.e. direct effects) can be made equally well for generalists vs. specialists, abundant vs. less abundant species, and across different habitat types is also untested for consumer-prey interactions. Here, we used two machine-learning techniques (random forest and k-nearest neighbour; KNN) to test whether we could accurately predict empirically-observed quantitative host-parasitoid networks using trait and phylogenetic information. Then, we tested whether the accuracy of machine-learning-predicted interactions depended on the generality or abundance of the interacting partners, or on the source (habitat type) of the training data. Finally, we used these predicted networks to generate predictions of indirect effects via shared natural enemies (i.e. apparent competition), and tested these predictions against empirically observed indirect effects between hosts. We found that random-forest models predicted host-parasitoid pairwise interactions (which could be used to predict attack of non-target host species) more successfully than KNN. This predictive ability depended on the generality of the interacting partners for KNN models, and depended on species' abundances for both random-forest and KNN models, but did not depend on the source (habitat type) of data used to train the models. Further, although our machine-learning informed methods could significantly predict indirect effects, the explanatory power of our machine-learning models for indirect interactions was reasonably low. Combining machine-learning and network approaches provides a starting point for reducing risk in biocontrol introductions, and could be applied more generally to predicting species interactions such as impacts of invasive species.

Project description:ImportanceAnticipating the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) when initiating antithrombotic treatment (oral antiplatelets or anticoagulants) is limited by existing risk prediction models. Machine learning algorithms may result in superior predictive models to aid in clinical decision-making.ObjectiveTo compare the performance of 3 machine learning approaches with the commonly used HAS-BLED (hypertension, abnormal kidney and liver function, stroke, bleeding, labile international normalized ratio, older age, and drug or alcohol use) risk score in predicting antithrombotic-related GIB.Design, setting, and participantsThis retrospective cross-sectional study used data from the OptumLabs Data Warehouse, which contains medical and pharmacy claims on privately insured patients and Medicare Advantage enrollees in the US. The study cohort included patients 18 years or older with a history of atrial fibrillation, ischemic heart disease, or venous thromboembolism who were prescribed oral anticoagulant and/or thienopyridine antiplatelet agents between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2019.ExposuresA cohort of patients prescribed oral anticoagulant and thienopyridine antiplatelet agents was divided into development and validation cohorts based on date of index prescription. The development cohort was used to train 3 machine learning models to predict GIB at 6 and 12 months: regularized Cox proportional hazards regression (RegCox), random survival forests (RSF), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost).Main outcomes and measuresThe performance of the models for predicting GIB in the validation cohort, evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and prediction density plots. Relative importance scores were used to identify the variables that were most influential in the top-performing machine learning model.ResultsIn the entire study cohort of 306 463 patients, 166 177 (54.2%) were male, 193 648 (63.2%) were White, the mean (SD) age was 69.0 (12.6) years, and 12 322 (4.0%) had experienced a GIB. In the validation data set, the HAS-BLED model had an AUC of 0.60 for predicting GIB at 6 months and 0.59 at 12 months. The RegCox model performed the best in the validation set, with an AUC of 0.67 at 6 months and 0.66 at 12 months. XGBoost was similar, with AUCs of 0.67 at 6 months and 0.66 at 12 months, whereas for RSF, AUCs were 0.62 at 6 months and 0.60 at 12 months. The variables with the highest importance scores in the RegCox model were prior GI bleed (importance score, 0.72); atrial fibrillation, ischemic heart disease, and venous thromboembolism combined (importance score, 0.38); and use of gastroprotective agents (importance score, 0.32).Conclusions and relevanceIn this cross-sectional study, the machine learning models examined showed similar performance in identifying patients at high risk for GIB after being prescribed antithrombotic agents. Two models (RegCox and XGBoost) performed modestly better than the HAS-BLED score. A prospective evaluation of the RegCox model compared with HAS-BLED may provide a better understanding of the clinical impact of improved performance.

Project description:BackgroundDiscover possible Drug Target Interactions (DTIs) is a decisive step in the detection of the effects of drugs as well as drug repositioning. There is a strong incentive to develop effective computational methods that can effectively predict potential DTIs, as traditional DTI laboratory experiments are expensive, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Some technologies have been developed for this purpose, however large numbers of interactions have not yet been detected, the accuracy of their prediction still low, and protein sequences and structured data are rarely used together in the prediction process.MethodsThis paper presents DTIs prediction model that takes advantage of the special capacity of the structured form of proteins and drugs. Our model obtains features from protein amino-acid sequences using physical and chemical properties, and from drugs smiles (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry System) strings using encoding techniques. Comparing the proposed model with different existing methods under K-fold cross validation, empirical results show that our model based on ensemble learning algorithms for DTI prediction provide more accurate results from both structures and features data.ResultsThe proposed model is applied on two datasets:Benchmark (feature only) datasets and DrugBank (Structure data) datasets. Experimental results obtained by Light-Boost and ExtraTree using structures and feature data results in 98 % accuracy and 0.97 f-score comparing to 94 % and 0.92 achieved by the existing methods. Moreover, our model can successfully predict more yet undiscovered interactions, and hence can be used as a practical tool to drug repositioning. A case study of applying our prediction model on the proteins that are known to be affected by Corona viruses in order to predict the possible interactions among these proteins and existing drugs is performed. Also, our model is applied on Covid-19 related drugs announced on DrugBank. The results show that some drugs like DB00691 and DB05203 are predicted with 100 % accuracy to interact with ACE2 protein. This protein is a self-membrane protein that enables Covid-19 infection. Hence, our model can be used as an effective tool in drug reposition to predict possible drug treatments for Covid-19.
