PURPOSE: Nitrofurantoin (NITRO), a long-standing antibiotic to treat urinary tract infections, is activated by Nitro reductases. This activation mechanism has led to its exploration for repositioning applications in controlling and treating breast ca...
The outbreak of emerging acute viral diseases urgently requires the acceleration of specialized antiviral drug development, thus widely adopting phenotypic screening as a strategy for drug repurposing in antiviral research. However, traditional pheno...
The evaluation of drug-gene-disease interactions is key for the identification of drugs effective against disease. However, at present, drugs that are effective against genes that are critical for disease are difficult to identify. Following a diseas...

Endometriosis affects over 190 million women globally, and effective therapies are urgently needed to address the burden of endometriosis on women's health. Using an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven target discovery platform, two unreported therap...
Drug repositioning offers promising prospects for accelerating drug discovery by identifying potential drug-disease associations (DDAs) for existing drugs and diseases. Previous methods have generated meta-path-augmented node or graph embeddings for ...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Amphetamine-type stimulants are the second-most used illicit drugs globally, yet there are no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved treatments for amphetamine-type stimulant use disorders (ATSUD). The aim of this study w...
Developing new drugs from marketed ones is a well-established and successful approach in drug discovery. We offer a unified view of this field, focusing on the new chemical aspects of the involved approaches: (a) chemical transformation of the origin...
The SARS-CoV-2 outbreak highlights the persistent vulnerability of humanity to epidemics and emerging microbial threats, emphasizing the lack of time to develop disease-specific treatments. Therefore, it appears beneficial to utilize existing resourc...
