AI Article Synopsis

  • The researchers modified the molecular structure of sibenadet (Viozan™), a dual agonist for DA(2) and β(2) receptors, to enhance its effectiveness and selectivity.
  • The changes aimed to improve how the drug behaves in the body, known as pharmacokinetics, making it more effective over time.
  • As a result, they developed a new, highly potent β(2)-agonist that is selective and can be administered once daily.

Article Abstract

Starting with the molecular scaffold of the DA(2)/β(2) dual agonist sibenadet (Viozan™), a number of molecular changes were incorporated, which were designed to increase the potency and selectivity of the target molecule, and improve its pharmacokinetics. Through this process a novel, high potency, full β(2)-agonist with high selectivity and long duration capable of being dosed once daily has been discovered.

A Modular Dual-Catalytic Aryl-Chlorination of Alkenes.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Alkyl chlorides are a class of versatile building blocks widely used to generate C(sp)-rich scaffolds through transformation such as nucleophilic substitution, radical addition reactions and metal-catalyzed cross-coupling processes. Despite their utility in the synthesis of high-value functional molecules, distinct methods for the preparation of alkyl chlorides are underrepresented. Here, we report a visible-light-mediated dual catalysis strategy for the modular synthesis of highly functionalized and structurally diverse arylated chloroalkanes via the coupling of diaryliodonium salts, alkenes and potassium chloride.

Background And Objective: Complete denture is a common restorative treatment in dental patients and the design of the core components (major connector and retentive mesh) of complete denture metal base (CDMB) is the basis of successful restoration. However, the automated design process of CDMB has become a challenging task primarily due to the complexity of manual interaction, low personalization, and low design accuracy.

Methods: To solve the existing problems, we develop a computer-aided Segmentation Network-driven CDMB design framework, called CDMB-SegNet, to automatically generate personalized digital design boundaries for complete dentures of edentulous patients.

Today, pharmaceutical industry faces great pressure to employ more efficient and systematic ways in drug discovery and development process. However, conventional formulation studies still strongly rely on personal experiences by trial-and-error experiments, resulting in a labor-consuming, tedious and costly pipeline. Thus, it is highly required to develop intelligent and efficient methods for formulation development to keep pace with the progress of the pharmaceutical industry.

SETD2, a lysine -methyltransferase, is a histone methyltransferase that plays an important role in various cellular processes and was identified as a target of interest in multiple myeloma that features a t(4,14) translocation. We recently reported the discovery of a novel small-molecule SETD2 inhibitor tool compound that is suitable for preclinical studies. Herein we describe the conformational-design-driven evolution of the advanced chemistry lead, which resulted in compounds appropriate for clinical evaluation.

Introduction: The implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) methodologies to drug discovery (DD) are on the rise. Several applications have been developed for structure-based DD, where AI methods provide an alternative framework for the identification of ligands for validated therapeutic targets, as well as the design of ligands through generative models.

Areas Covered: Herein, the authors review the contributions between the 2019 to present period regarding the application of AI methods to structure-based virtual screening (SBVS) which encompasses mainly molecular docking applications - binding pose prediction and binary classification for ligand or hit identification-, as well as drug design driven by machine learning (ML) generative models, and the validation of AI models in structure-based screening.
