Using artificial intelligence methods to speed up drug discovery.

Expert opinion on drug discovery
: Drug discovery is the process through which potential new compounds are identified by means of biology, chemistry, and pharmacology. Due to the high complexity of genomic data, AI techniques are increasingly needed to help reduce this and aid the a...

Drug repositioning of herbal compounds via a machine-learning approach.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Drug repositioning, also known as drug repurposing, defines new indications for existing drugs and can be used as an alternative to drug development. In recent years, the accumulation of large volumes of information related to drugs and d...

DrugR+: A comprehensive relational database for drug repurposing, combination therapy, and replacement therapy.

Computers in biology and medicine
Drug repurposing or repositioning, which introduces new applications of the existing drugs, is an emerging field in drug discovery scope. To enhance the success rate of the research and development (R&D) process in a cost- and time-effective manner, ...

Drug repurposing in oncology: Compounds, pathways, phenotypes and computational approaches for colorectal cancer.

Biochimica et biophysica acta. Reviews on cancer
The strategy of using existing drugs originally developed for one disease to treat other indications has found success across medical fields. Such drug repurposing promises faster access of drugs to patients while reducing costs in the long and diffi...

Exploiting machine learning for end-to-end drug discovery and development.

Nature materials
A variety of machine learning methods such as naive Bayesian, support vector machines and more recently deep neural networks are demonstrating their utility for drug discovery and development. These leverage the generally bigger datasets created from...

Serendipity-A Machine-Learning Application for Mining Serendipitous Drug Usage From Social Media.

IEEE transactions on nanobioscience
Serendipitous drug usage refers to the unexpected relief of comorbid diseases or symptoms when taking medication for a different known indication. Historically, serendipity has contributed significantly to identifying many new drug indications. If pa...

Building the drug-GO function network to screen significant candidate drugs for myasthenia gravis.

PloS one
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease. In recent years, considerable evidence has indicated that Gene Ontology (GO) functions, especially GO-biological processes, have important effects on the mechanisms and treatments of different diseases...

Predicting drug-target interaction network using deep learning model.

Computational biology and chemistry
BACKGROUND: Traditional methods for drug discovery are time-consuming and expensive, so efforts are being made to repurpose existing drugs. To find new ways for drug repurposing, many computational approaches have been proposed to predict drug-target...

Disease comorbidity-guided drug repositioning: a case study in schizophrenia.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
UNLABELLED: The key to any computational drug repositioning is the availability of relevant data in machine-understandable format. While large amount of genetic, genomic and chemical data are publicly available, large-scale higher-level disease and d...

Drug Repurposing Prediction for Immune-Mediated Cutaneous Diseases using a Word-Embedding-Based Machine Learning Approach.

The Journal of investigative dermatology
Immune-mediated diseases affect more than 20% of the population, and many autoimmune diseases affect the skin. Drug repurposing (or repositioning) is a cost-effective approach for finding drugs that can be used to treat diseases for which they are cu...
