HGANMDA: A Heterogeneous Graph Adversarial Network for Multimodal Microbe-Drug Association Prediction.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Accurate prediction of microbe-drug associations (MDAs) is vital for guiding antimicrobial therapy and accelerating drug repositioning. Although experimental validation remains the gold standard, it is costly and time-consuming. Existing models, ofte...

Design, synthesis, deep learning-guided prediction, and biological evaluation of novel pyridine-thiophene-based imine-benzalacetophenone hybrids as promising antimicrobial agent.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remains a global health crisis, necessitating the development of novel therapeutics against multidrug-resistant pathogens. In this study, ten (10) hybrid imine-benzalacetophenone derivatives (7a-7j), incorporating pyrid...

Computational exploration of global venoms for antimicrobial discovery with Venomics artificial intelligence.

Nature communications
The rise of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, particularly gram-negative bacteria, highlights the urgent need for novel therapeutics. Drug-resistant infections now contribute to approximately 5 million deaths annually, yet traditional antibiotic discov...
