Project description:BackgroundDrugs achieve pharmacological functions by acting on target proteins. Identifying interactions between drugs and target proteins is an essential task in old drug repositioning and new drug discovery. To recommend new drug candidates and reposition existing drugs, computational approaches are commonly adopted. Compared with the wet-lab experiments, the computational approaches have lower cost for drug discovery and provides effective guidance in the subsequent experimental verification. How to integrate different types of biological data and handle the sparsity of drug-target interaction data are still great challenges.ResultsIn this paper, we propose a novel drug-target interactions (DTIs) prediction method incorporating marginalized denoising model on heterogeneous networks with association index kernel matrix and latent global association. The experimental results on benchmark datasets and new compiled datasets indicate that compared to other existing methods, our method achieves higher scores of AUC (area under curve of receiver operating characteristic) and larger values of AUPR (area under precision-recall curve).ConclusionsThe performance improvement in our method depends on the association index kernel matrix and the latent global association. The association index kernel matrix calculates the sharing relationship between drugs and targets. The latent global associations address the false positive issue caused by network link sparsity. Our method can provide a useful approach to recommend new drug candidates and reposition existing drugs.

Project description:Identification of drug-target interactions (DTIs) plays a crucial role in drug development. Traditional laboratory-based DTI discovery is generally costly and time-consuming. Therefore, computational approaches have been developed to predict interactions between drug candidates and disease-causing proteins. We designed a novel method, termed heterogeneous information integration for DTI prediction (HIDTI), based on the concept of predicting vectors for all of unknown/unavailable heterogeneous drug- and protein-related information. We applied a residual network in HIDTI to extract features of such heterogeneous information for predicting DTIs, and tested the model using drug-based ten-fold cross-validation to examine the prediction performance for unseen drugs. As a result, HIDTI outperformed existing models using heterogeneous information, and was demonstrating that our method predicted heterogeneous information on unseen data better than other models. In conclusion, our study suggests that HIDTI has the potential to advance the field of drug development by accurately predicting the targets of new drugs.

Project description:Identification of drug-target interactions (DTIs) is vital for drug discovery. However, traditional biological approaches have some unavoidable shortcomings, such as being time consuming and expensive. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel and effective computational methods to predict DTIs in order to shorten the development cycles of new drugs. In this study, we present a novel computational approach to identify DTIs, which uses protein sequence information and the dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT). More specifically, a position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM) was performed on the target protein sequence to obtain its evolutionary information. Then, DTCWT was used to extract representative features from the PSSM, which were then combined with the drug fingerprint features to form the feature descriptors. Finally, these descriptors were sent to the Rotation Forest (RoF) model for classification. A 5-fold cross validation (CV) was adopted on four datasets (Enzyme, Ion Channel, GPCRs (G-protein-coupled receptors), and NRs (Nuclear Receptors)) to validate the proposed model; our method yielded high average accuracies of 89.21%, 85.49%, 81.02%, and 74.44%, respectively. To further verify the performance of our model, we compared the RoF classifier with two state-of-the-art algorithms: the support vector machine (SVM) and the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) classifier. We also compared it with some other published methods. Moreover, the prediction results for the independent dataset further indicated that our method is effective for predicting potential DTIs. Thus, we believe that our method is suitable for facilitating drug discovery and development.

Project description:Drug-target interaction (DTI) is the basis of drug discovery and design. It is time consuming and costly to determine DTI experimentally. Hence, it is necessary to develop computational methods for the prediction of potential DTI. Based on complex network theory, three supervised inference methods were developed here to predict DTI and used for drug repositioning, namely drug-based similarity inference (DBSI), target-based similarity inference (TBSI) and network-based inference (NBI). Among them, NBI performed best on four benchmark data sets. Then a drug-target network was created with NBI based on 12,483 FDA-approved and experimental drug-target binary links, and some new DTIs were further predicted. In vitro assays confirmed that five old drugs, namely montelukast, diclofenac, simvastatin, ketoconazole, and itraconazole, showed polypharmacological features on estrogen receptors or dipeptidyl peptidase-IV with half maximal inhibitory or effective concentration ranged from 0.2 to 10 µM. Moreover, simvastatin and ketoconazole showed potent antiproliferative activities on human MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line in MTT assays. The results indicated that these methods could be powerful tools in prediction of DTIs and drug repositioning.

Project description:Identification of drug-target interaction (DTI) is a crucial step to reduce time and cost in the drug discovery and development process. Since various biological data are publicly available, DTIs have been identified computationally. To predict DTIs, most existing methods focus on a single similarity measure of drugs and target proteins, whereas some recent methods integrate a particular set of drug and target similarity measures by a single integration function. Therefore, many DTIs are still missing. In this study, we propose heterogeneous network propagation with the forward similarity integration (FSI) algorithm, which systematically selects the optimal integration of multiple similarity measures of drugs and target proteins. Seven drug-drug and nine target-target similarity measures are applied with four distinct integration methods to finally create an optimal heterogeneous network model. Consequently, the optimal model uses the target similarity based on protein sequences and the fused drug similarity, which combines the similarity measures based on chemical structures, the Jaccard scores of drug-disease associations, and the cosine scores of drug-drug interactions. With an accuracy of 99.8%, this model significantly outperforms others that utilize different similarity measures of drugs and target proteins. In addition, the validation of the DTI predictions of this model demonstrates the ability of our method to discover missing potential DTIs.

Project description:MotivationIn silico prediction of drug-target interactions from heterogeneous biological data is critical in the search for drugs for known diseases. This problem is currently being attacked from many different points of view, a strong indication of its current importance. Precisely, being able to predict new drug-target interactions with both high precision and accuracy is the holy grail, a fundamental requirement for in silico methods to be useful in a biological setting. This, however, remains extremely challenging due to, amongst other things, the rarity of known drug-target interactions.ResultsWe propose a novel supervised inference method to predict unknown drug-target interactions, represented as a bipartite graph. We use this method, known as bipartite local models to first predict target proteins of a given drug, then to predict drugs targeting a given protein. This gives two independent predictions for each putative drug-target interaction, which we show can be combined to give a definitive prediction for each interaction. We demonstrate the excellent performance of the proposed method in the prediction of four classes of drug-target interaction networks involving enzymes, ion channels, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and nuclear receptors in human. This enables us to suggest a number of new potential drug-target interactions.AvailabilityAn implementation of the proposed algorithm is available upon request from the authors. Datasets and all prediction results are available at http://cbio.ensmp.fr/~yyamanishi/bipartitelocal/.

Project description:The emergence of large-scale genomic, chemical and pharmacological data provides new opportunities for drug discovery and repositioning. In this work, we develop a computational pipeline, called DTINet, to predict novel drug-target interactions from a constructed heterogeneous network, which integrates diverse drug-related information. DTINet focuses on learning a low-dimensional vector representation of features, which accurately explains the topological properties of individual nodes in the heterogeneous network, and then makes prediction based on these representations via a vector space projection scheme. DTINet achieves substantial performance improvement over other state-of-the-art methods for drug-target interaction prediction. Moreover, we experimentally validate the novel interactions between three drugs and the cyclooxygenase proteins predicted by DTINet, and demonstrate the new potential applications of these identified cyclooxygenase inhibitors in preventing inflammatory diseases. These results indicate that DTINet can provide a practically useful tool for integrating heterogeneous information to predict new drug-target interactions and repurpose existing drugs.Network-based data integration for drug-target prediction is a promising avenue for drug repositioning, but performance is wanting. Here, the authors introduce DTINet, whose performance is enhanced in the face of noisy, incomplete and high-dimensional biological data by learning low-dimensional vector representations.

Project description:Prediction of drug-target interactions (DTIs) is essential in medicine field, since it benefits the identification of molecular structures potentially interacting with drugs and facilitates the discovery and reposition of drugs. Recently, much attention has been attracted to network representation learning to learn rich information from heterogeneous data. Although network representation learning algorithms have achieved success in predicting DTI, several manually designed meta-graphs limit the capability of extracting complex semantic information. To address the problem, we introduce an adaptive meta-graph-based method, termed AMGDTI, for DTI prediction. In the proposed AMGDTI, the semantic information is automatically aggregated from a heterogeneous network by training an adaptive meta-graph, thereby achieving efficient information integration without requiring domain knowledge. The effectiveness of the proposed AMGDTI is verified on two benchmark datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that the AMGDTI method overall outperforms eight state-of-the-art methods in predicting DTI and achieves the accurate identification of novel DTIs. It is also verified that the adaptive meta-graph exhibits flexibility and effectively captures complex fine-grained semantic information, enabling the learning of intricate heterogeneous network topology and the inference of potential drug-target relationship.

Project description:Predicting drug-target interactions is important for the development of novel drugs and the repositioning of drugs. To predict such interactions, there are a number of methods based on drug and target protein similarity. Although these methods, such as the bipartite local model (BLM), show promise, they often categorize unknown interactions as negative interaction. Therefore, these methods are not ideal for finding potential drug-target interactions that have not yet been validated as positive interactions. Thus, here we propose a method that integrates machine learning techniques, such as self-training support vector machine (SVM) and BLM, to develop a self-training bipartite local model (SELF-BLM) that facilitates the identification of potential interactions. The method first categorizes unlabeled interactions and negative interactions among unknown interactions using a clustering method. Then, using the BLM method and self-training SVM, the unlabeled interactions are self-trained and final local classification models are constructed. When applied to four classes of proteins that include enzymes, G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), ion channels, and nuclear receptors, SELF-BLM showed the best performance for predicting not only known interactions but also potential interactions in three protein classes compare to other related studies. The implemented software and supporting data are available at https://github.com/GIST-CSBL/SELF-BLM.

Project description:Computational methods for predicting drug-target interactions have become important in drug research because they can help to reduce the time, cost, and failure rates for developing new drugs. Recently, with the accumulation of drug-related data sets related to drug side effects and pharmacological data, it has became possible to predict potential drug-target interactions. In this study, we focus on drug-drug interactions (DDI), their adverse effects ([Formula: see text]) and pharmacological information ([Formula: see text]), and investigate the relationship among chemical structures, side effects, and DDIs from several data sources. In this study, [Formula: see text] data from the STITCH database, [Formula: see text] from drugs.com, and drug-target pairs from ChEMBL and SIDER were first collected. Then, by applying two machine learning approaches, a support vector machine (SVM) and a kernel-based L1-norm regularized logistic regression (KL1LR), we showed that DDI is a promising feature in predicting drug-target interactions. Next, the accuracies of predicting drug-target interactions using DDI were compared to those obtained using the chemical structure and side effects based on the SVM and KL1LR approaches, showing that DDI was the data source contributing the most for predicting drug-target interactions.
