Improving biological activity prediction of protein kinase inhibitors using artificial neural network and partial least square methods
Introduction: Protein kinase causes many diseases, including cancer; therefore, inhibiting them plays an important role in the treatment of many diseases. Traditional discovery inhibitors of this enzyme is a time-consuming and costly process. Finding a reliable computer-aided drug discovery tools which can detect the inhibitors will reduce the cost. In this study, it is attempted to separate ki...

متن کاملProgress in HIV-1 integrase inhibitors: A review of their chemical structure diversity
HIV-1 integrase (IN) enzyme, one of the three main enzymes of HIV-1, catalyzed the insertion of the viral DNA into the genome of host cells. Because of the lack of its homologue in human cells and its essential role in HIV-1 replication, IN inhibition represents an attractive therapeutic target for HIV-1 treatment. Since identification of IN as a promising therapeutic target, a major progress h...

متن کاملRho Kinase Inhibitors as a Novel Treatment for Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension
In an elegant example of bench-to-bedside research, a hypothesis that cells in the outflow pathway actively regulate conventional outflow resistance was proposed in the 1990s and systematically pursued, exposing novel cellular and molecular mechanisms of intraocular pressure (IOP) regulation. The critical discovery that pharmacologic manipulation of the cytoskeleton of outflow pathway cells dec...
