MTD approach to quantitative structure-activity relationships for cardiotonic steroids.

MTD calculations on quantitative structure-activity relationships of steroids binding to the progesterone receptor.

The minimal topological difference (MTD) method is used to describe quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) for the progesterone-receptor binding affinity including 59 progestational steroids. Multiple correlation coefficients of r = 0.962 and r = 0.955 are obtained by use of the MTD variable and a measure of hydrophobicity for the series of progesterone and ethisterone derivatives...

A Short Review on Cardiotonic Steroids and Their Aminoguanidine Analogues

A short review on cardiotonic steroids and their analogues is presented. The natural, semisynthetic and synthetic derivatives, as well as their mechanism of action and structure-activity relationships are shown, with a special reference to aminoguanidine derivatives.

Quantitative Structure - Activity Relationships Study of Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors Using Logistic Regression Model

Binary Logistic Regression (BLR) has been developed as non-linear models to establish quantitative structure- activity relationships (QSAR) between structural descriptors and biochemical activity of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. Using a training set consisted of 21 compounds with known ki values, the model was trained and tested to solve two-class problems as active or inactive on the basi...

Three-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship approach series of 3-Bromo-4-(1-H-3-Indolyl)-2, 5-Dihydro-1H-2, 5- Pyrroledione as antibacterial agents

The use of quantitative structure–activity relationships, since its advent, has becomeincreasingly helpful in understanding many aspects of biochemical interactions in drug research.This approach was utilized to explain the relationship of structure with biological activity ofantibacterial. For the development of new fungicides against, the quantitative structural–activityrelationship (QSAR) an...
