Poor pharmacokinetic and toxicity profiles are major reasons for the low rate of advancing lead drug candidates into efficacy studies. The In-silico prediction of primary pharmacokinetic and toxicity properties in the drug discovery and development p...
BACKGROUND: Blockage of some ion channels and in particular, the hERG (human Ether-a'-go-go-Related Gene) cardiac potassium channel delays cardiac repolarization and can induce arrhythmia. In some cases it leads to a potentially life-threatening arrh...

Toxicity is an important reason for the failure of drug research and development (R&D). The traditional experimental testings for chemical toxicity profile are costly and time-consuming. Therefore, it is attractive to develop the effective and accura...
