Stem cell-based embryo models by cultured pluripotent and extra-embryonic lineage stem cells are novel platforms to model early postimplantation development. We showed that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) could form ITS (iPSCs and trophectoder...
Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are prospective but challenging targets for drug discovery, because screening using traditional small-molecule libraries often fails to identify hits. Recently, we developed a PPI-oriented library comprising 12,593...
In response to the pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, we constructed a hybrid support vector machine (SVM) classification model using a set of publicly posted SARS-CoV-2 pseudotyped particle (PP) entry assay repurposing screen data to identify novel pote...

De novo design of mini-proteins (4-12 kDa) has recently been shown to produce new candidates for protein therapeutics. They are temperature stable molecules that bind to the drug target with high affinity for inhibiting its interactions. The developm...
Mapping the gene-regulatory networks dysregulated in human disease would allow the design of network-correcting therapies that treat the core disease mechanism. However, small molecules are traditionally screened for their effects on one to several o...
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease, which is compared to "immortal cancer" in industry. Currently, SYK, BTK, and JAK are the three major targets of protein tyrosine kinase for this disease. According to existing research, marke...
Atom- or bond-level chemical properties of interest in medicinal chemistry, such as drug metabolism and electrophilic reactivity, are important to understand and predict across arbitrary new molecules. Deep learning can be used to map molecular struc...
Conventional experimental approaches used for the evaluation of the proarrhythmic potential of compounds in the drug discovery process are expensive and time consuming but an integral element in the safety profile required for a new drug to be appro...
Recently, various computational methods have been proposed to find new therapeutic applications of the existing drugs. The Multimodal Restricted Boltzmann Machine approach (MM-RBM), which has the capability to connect the information about the multip...
