3D QSAR Markov model for drug-induced eosinophilia--theoretical prediction and preliminary experimental assay of the antimicrobial drug G1.

The application of 3D-MEDNEs as a novel alternative technique to reduce the use of animal experimentation in toxicology in the early stages of medicinal chemistry research has been extended from agranulocytosis to chemically induced eosinophilia. Firstly, a heterogeneous series of organic compounds, which are classified either as eosinophilia inductors or noninductors, was collected. A linear discriminant analysis was subsequently used to obtain a QSTR that gave rise to a very good classification of 91.

Predicting multiple drugs side effects with a general drug-target interaction thermodynamic Markov model.

Most of present molecular descriptors just consider the molecular structure. In the present article we pretend extending the use of Markov chain models to define novel molecular descriptors, which consider in addition to molecular structure other parameters like target site or toxic effect. Specifically, this molecular descriptor takes into consideration not only the molecular structure but the specific system the drug affects too.

3D-MEDNEs: an alternative "in silico" technique for chemical research in toxicology. 1. prediction of chemically induced agranulocytosis.

A novel approach to molecular negentropy from the point of view of Markov models is introduced. Stochastic negentropies (MEDNEs) are used to develop a linear discriminant analysis. The discriminant analysis produced a set of two discriminant functions, which gave rise to a very good separation of 93.
