ABSTRACT: Summary
Accurate prediction of drug-target interactions (DTI) is crucial for drug discovery. Recently, deep learning (DL) models for show promising performance for DTI prediction. However, these models can be difficult to use for both computer scientists entering the biomedical field and bioinformaticians with limited DL experience. We present DeepPurpose, a comprehensive and easy-to-use DL library for DTI prediction. DeepPurpose supports training of customized DTI prediction models by implementing 15 compound and protein encoders and over 50 neural architectures, along with providing many other useful features. We demonstrate state-of-the-art performance of DeepPurpose on several benchmark datasets.Availability and implementation

Project description:BackgroundIdentifying drug-target interaction is a key element in drug discovery. In silico prediction of drug-target interaction can speed up the process of identifying unknown interactions between drugs and target proteins. In recent studies, handcrafted features, similarity metrics and machine learning methods have been proposed for predicting drug-target interactions. However, these methods cannot fully learn the underlying relations between drugs and targets. In this paper, we propose anew framework for drug-target interaction prediction that learns latent features from drug-target interaction network.ResultsWe present a framework to utilize the network topology and identify interacting and non-interacting drug-target pairs. We model the problem as a semi-bipartite graph in which we are able to use drug-drug and protein-protein similarity in a drug-protein network. We have then used a graph labeling method for vertex ordering in our graph embedding process. Finally, we employed deep neural network to learn the complex pattern of interacting pairs from embedded graphs. We show our approach is able to learn sophisticated drug-target topological features and outperforms other state-of-the-art approaches.ConclusionsThe proposed learning model on semi-bipartite graph model, can integrate drug-drug and protein-protein similarities which are semantically different than drug-protein information in a drug-target interaction network. We show our model can determine interaction likelihood for each drug-target pair and outperform other heuristics.

Project description:To fight against the present pandemic scenario of COVID-19 outbreak, medication with drugs and vaccines is extremely essential other than ventilation support. In this paper, we present a list of ligands which are expected to have the highest binding affinity with the S-glycoprotein of 2019-nCoV and thus can be used to make the drug for the novel coronavirus. Here, we implemented an architecture using 1D convolutional networks to predict drug-target interaction (DTI) values. The network was trained on the KIBA (Kinase Inhibitor Bioactivity) dataset. With this network, we predicted the KIBA scores (which gives a measure of binding affinity) of a list of ligands against the S-glycoprotein of 2019-nCoV. Based on these KIBA scores, we are proposing a list of ligands (33 top ligands based on best interactions) which have a high binding affinity with the S-glycoprotein of 2019-nCoV and thus can be used for the formation of drugs.

Project description:Several experimental evidences have shown that the human endogenous hormones can interact with drugs in many ways and affect drug efficacy. The hormone drug interactions (HDI) are essential for drug treatment and precision medicine; therefore, it is essential to understand the hormone-drug associations. Here, we present HormoNet to predict the HDI pairs and their risk level by integrating features derived from hormone and drug target proteins. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first attempts to employ deep learning approach for prediction of HDI prediction. Amino acid composition and pseudo amino acid composition were applied to represent target information using 30 physicochemical and conformational properties of the proteins. To handle the imbalance problem in the data, we applied synthetic minority over-sampling technique technique. Additionally, we constructed novel datasets for HDI prediction and the risk level of their interaction. HormoNet achieved high performance on our constructed hormone-drug benchmark datasets. The results provide insights into the understanding of the relationship between hormone and a drug, and indicate the potential benefit of reducing risk levels of interactions in designing more effective therapies for patients in drug treatments. Our benchmark datasets and the source codes for HormoNet are available in: https://github.com/EmamiNeda/HormoNet .

Project description:Many machine learning applications in bioinformatics currently rely on matching gene identities when analyzing input gene signatures and fail to take advantage of preexisting knowledge about gene functions. To further enable comparative analysis of OMICS datasets, including target deconvolution and mechanism of action studies, we develop an approach that represents gene signatures projected onto their biological functions, instead of their identities, similar to how the word2vec technique works in natural language processing. We develop the Functional Representation of Gene Signatures (FRoGS) approach by training a deep learning model and demonstrate that its application to the Broad Institute's L1000 datasets results in more effective compound-target predictions than models based on gene identities alone. By integrating additional pharmacological activity data sources, FRoGS significantly increases the number of high-quality compound-target predictions relative to existing approaches, many of which are supported by in silico and/or experimental evidence. These results underscore the general utility of FRoGS in machine learning-based bioinformatics applications. Prediction networks pre-equipped with the knowledge of gene functions may help uncover new relationships among gene signatures acquired by large-scale OMICs studies on compounds, cell types, disease models, and patient cohorts.

Project description:BackgroundPredicting the effect of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) precisely is important for safer and more effective drug co-prescription. Many computational approaches to predict the effect of DDIs have been proposed, with the aim of reducing the effort of identifying these interactions in vivo or in vitro, but room remains for improvement in prediction performance.ResultsIn this study, we propose a novel deep learning model to predict the effect of DDIs more accurately.. The proposed model uses autoencoders and a deep feed-forward network that are trained using the structural similarity profiles (SSP), Gene Ontology (GO) term similarity profiles (GSP), and target gene similarity profiles (TSP) of known drug pairs to predict the pharmacological effects of DDIs. The results show that GSP and TSP increase the prediction accuracy when using SSP alone, and the autoencoder is more effective than PCA for reducing the dimensions of each profile. Our model showed better performance than the existing methods, and identified a number of novel DDIs that are supported by medical databases or existing research.ConclusionsWe present a novel deep learning model for more accurate prediction of DDIs and their effects, which may assist in future research to discover novel DDIs and their pharmacological effects.

Project description:BackgroundThe key to modern drug discovery is to find, identify and prepare drug molecular targets. However, due to the influence of throughput, precision and cost, traditional experimental methods are difficult to be widely used to infer these potential Drug-Target Interactions (DTIs). Therefore, it is urgent to develop effective computational methods to validate the interaction between drugs and target.MethodsWe developed a deep learning-based model for DTIs prediction. The proteins evolutionary features are extracted via Position Specific Scoring Matrix (PSSM) and Legendre Moment (LM) and associated with drugs molecular substructure fingerprints to form feature vectors of drug-target pairs. Then we utilized the Sparse Principal Component Analysis (SPCA) to compress the features of drugs and proteins into a uniform vector space. Lastly, the deep long short-term memory (DeepLSTM) was constructed for carrying out prediction.ResultsA significant improvement in DTIs prediction performance can be observed on experimental results, with AUC of 0.9951, 0.9705, 0.9951, 0.9206, respectively, on four classes important drug-target datasets. Further experiments preliminary proves that the proposed characterization scheme has great advantage on feature expression and recognition. We also have shown that the proposed method can work well with small dataset.ConclusionThe results demonstration that the proposed approach has a great advantage over state-of-the-art drug-target predictor. To the best of our knowledge, this study first tests the potential of deep learning method with memory and Turing completeness in DTIs prediction.

Project description:Drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction is a crucial step in drug discovery and repositioning as it reduces experimental validation costs if done right. Thus, developing in-silico methods to predict potential DTI has become a competitive research niche, with one of its main focuses being improving the prediction accuracy. Using machine learning (ML) models for this task, specifically network-based approaches, is effective and has shown great advantages over the other computational methods. However, ML model development involves upstream hand-crafted feature extraction and other processes that impact prediction accuracy. Thus, network-based representation learning techniques that provide automated feature extraction combined with traditional ML classifiers dealing with downstream link prediction tasks may be better-suited paradigms. Here, we present such a method, DTi2Vec, which identifies DTIs using network representation learning and ensemble learning techniques. DTi2Vec constructs the heterogeneous network, and then it automatically generates features for each drug and target using the nodes embedding technique. DTi2Vec demonstrated its ability in drug-target link prediction compared to several state-of-the-art network-based methods, using four benchmark datasets and large-scale data compiled from DrugBank. DTi2Vec showed a statistically significant increase in the prediction performances in terms of AUPR. We verified the "novel" predicted DTIs using several databases and scientific literature. DTi2Vec is a simple yet effective method that provides high DTI prediction performance while being scalable and efficient in computation, translating into a powerful drug repositioning tool.

Project description:Artificial intelligence (AI) is undergoing a revolution thanks to the breakthroughs of machine learning algorithms in computer vision, speech recognition, natural language processing and generative modelling. Recent works on publicly available pharmaceutical data showed that AI methods are highly promising for Drug Target prediction. However, the quality of public data might be different than that of industry data due to different labs reporting measurements, different measurement techniques, fewer samples and less diverse and specialized assays. As part of a European funded project (ExCAPE), that brought together expertise from pharmaceutical industry, machine learning, and high-performance computing, we investigated how well machine learning models obtained from public data can be transferred to internal pharmaceutical industry data. Our results show that machine learning models trained on public data can indeed maintain their predictive power to a large degree when applied to industry data. Moreover, we observed that deep learning derived machine learning models outperformed comparable models, which were trained by other machine learning algorithms, when applied to internal pharmaceutical company datasets. To our knowledge, this is the first large-scale study evaluating the potential of machine learning and especially deep learning directly at the level of industry-scale settings and moreover investigating the transferability of publicly learned target prediction models towards industrial bioactivity prediction pipelines.

Project description:Target protein-based drug and research compound discovery has been undeniably successful strategy in life science research, yet many diseases and biological processes lack obvious targets to enable these approaches. Here, to overcome this major challenge we have developed a deep-learning based efficacy prediction system (DLEPS) to identify potent agents to treat diverse diseases; DLEPS was trained using L1000 project chemical induced “changes of transcriptional profiles” (CTP) data as input. Strikingly, we found that the CTPs for previously unexamined molecules were precisely predicted (0.74 Pearson correlation coefficient). We used DLEPS to examine 4 disorders, and experimentally validated that perillen, chikusetsusaponin IV, trametinib, and liquiritin confer disease-relevant impacts against obesity, hyperuricemia, NASH, and COVID-19, respectively. Importantly, DLEPS also uncovered the biological insight that the MEK-ERK signaling pathway should be understood as a target for developing anti-NASH agents. Beyond illustrating that DLEPS is an effective tool for drug repurposing and development with diverse diseases (including those lacking targets), our study shows how diverse transcriptomics datasets can be harnessed to identify inhibitors and activator chemicals that can expand the scope of biological investigations well beyond mutant-bases analyses.
