A series of nineteen substituted 1,2,3,4,6,7,12,12a-octahydropyrazino[2',1':6,1]pyrido[3, 4-b]indoles analogues of neuroleptic drug, Centbutindole have been studied using quantitative structure-activity relationship analysis. The derived models display good fits to the experimental data (r>or=0.75) having good predictive power (r(cv)>or=0.688). The best model describes a high correlation between predicted and experimental activity data (r=0.967). Statistical analysis of the equation populations indicates that hydrophobicity (as measured by pi(R), logP(o/w) and SlogP_VSA8), dipole y and structural parameters in terms of indicator variable, (In(1)) and globularity are important variables in describing the variation in the neuroleptic activity in the series.

Recent advances in machine learning have significantly impacted molecular design, notably the molecular generation method combining the chemical variational autoencoder (VAE) with Gaussian mixture regression (GMR). In this method, a mathematical model is constructed with X as the latent variable of the molecule and Y as the target properties and activities. Through direct inverse analysis of this model, it is possible to generate molecules with the desired target properties.

A systematic structure-activity and computational modeling analysis of a series of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists based upon an ultra-short GLP-1 peptide, H-His-Aib-Glu-Gly-Thr-Phe-Thr-Ser-Asp-Bip-Bip-NH2, was conducted. This highly potent 11-mer peptide led to a deeper understanding of the α-helical bias of strategic α-methylation within the linear parent template as well as optimization of GLP-1R agonist potency by 1000-fold. These data were correlated with previously reported co-structures of both full-length GLP-1 analogs and progenitor N-terminal GLP-1 fragment analogs related to such ultra-short GLP-1R agonist peptides.

Department of Herbal Pharmacology, College of Korean Medicine, Gachon University, 1342 Seongnamdae-ro, Sujeong-gu, Seongnam-si 13120, Republic of Korea.

The NLRP3 inflammasome, plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by activating inflammatory cytokines such as IL1β and IL18. Targeting NLRP3 has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy for RA. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach combining machine learning, quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) modeling, structure-activity landscape index (SALI), docking, molecular dynamics (MD), and molecular mechanics Poisson-Boltzmann surface area MM/PBSA assays was employed to identify novel NLRP3 inhibitors.

Prostate cancer (PCa) has emerged to be the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in men. Molecular imaging of PCa using targeted radiopharmaceuticals specifically to PCa cells promises accurate staging of primary disease, detection of localized and metastasized tumours, and helps predict the progression of the disease. Glutamate urea heterodimers have been popularly used as high-affinity small molecules in the binding pockets of popular and well-characterized PCa biomarker, prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA).

Unlabelled: Lead optimization is vital for turning hit compounds into therapeutic drugs. This study builds upon a prior in silico research, where the hit compounds had better binding affinity and stability compared to a reference drug. Using a genetic algorithm, 12,500 analogs of the top compounds from the prior study were generated.
