This paper describes an analysis of the diversity and chemical toxicity assessment of three chemical libraries of compounds from African flora (the p-ANAPL, AfroMalariaDb, and Afro-HIV), respectively containing compounds exhibiting activities against...
Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models were derived for 179 analogues of artemisinin, a potent antimalarial agent. Molecular descriptors derived solely from molecular structure were used to represent molecular structure. Utilizing...

The development of new antimalarial therapies is essential, and lowering the barrier of entry for the screening and discovery of new lead compound classes can spur drug development at organizations that may not have large compound screening libraries...
BACKGROUND: The Drug Ontology (DrOn) is an OWL2-based representation of drug products and their ingredients, mechanisms of action, strengths, and dose forms. We originally created DrOn for use cases in comparative effectiveness research, primarily to...

BACKGROUND: Nanocrystals have the potential to substantially increase dissolution rate, solubility with subsequent enhanced bioavailability via the oral route of a range of poor water soluble drugs. Regardless of other issues, scale up of the batch s...
BACKGROUND: Cotrimoxazole (CTX) discontinuation increases malaria incidence in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals. Rates, quantity, and timing of parasitemia rebound following CTX remain undefined.

Machine learning techniques have been widely used in drug discovery and development in the areas of cheminformatics. Aspartyl aminopeptidase (M18AAP) of Plasmodium falciparum is crucial for survival of malaria parasite. We have created predictive mod...
A large quantity of high throughput screening (HTS) data for antimalarial activity has become available in recent years. This includes both phenotypic and target-based activity. Realising the maximum value of these data remains a challenge. In this r...
The Plasmodium falciparum Protein Kinase 6 (PfPK6) is a serine/threonine protein kinase categorized under the CMGC group, displaying both cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) activity. Previous research has in...
