AbstractA QSAR study on a series of pyrimidinyl and triazinyl amines was performed to explore the physico-chemical parameters responsible for their anti-HIV activity and cytotoxicity. Physico-chemical parameters were calculated using WIN CAChe 6.1. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was carried out to derive QSAR models which were further evaluated for statistical significance and predictive power by internal and external validation. The selected best QSAR models showed correlation coefficient R of 0.914 and 0.901, and cross-validated squared correlation coefficient Q 2 of 0.685 and 0.691 for anti-HIV activity and cytotoxicity, respectively. The developed significant QSAR model indicates that hydrophobicity of the whole molecule plays an important role in the anti-HIV activity and cytotoxicity of pyrimidinyl and triazinyl amine derivatives. When hydrophobicity is increased, anti-HIV activity of the present series of compounds is decreased leading to high cytotoxicity.

AbstractIn pursuit of better CRTh2 receptor antagonist agents, QSAR studies were performed on a series of 2,4-disubstituted phenoxyacetic acid derivatives. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was performed to derive QSAR models which were further evaluated for statistical significance and predictive power by internal and external validation. The best QSAR model was selected; having the correlation coefficient R = 0.904, standard error of estimation SEE = 0.456 and the cross validated squared correlation coefficient Q 2 = 0.739. Predictive ability of the selected model was also confirmed by the leave one out cross validation method and by leave 33 % out Q 2 = 0.688. The QSAR model indicates that the descriptors (logP, SI3, LM, and DVZ) play an important role in the CRTh2 receptor antagonist activities. Results of the present study may be useful in the designing of more potent 2,4-disubstituted phenoxyacetic acid derivatives as CRTh2 receptor antagonist agents.

A quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) of a series of substituted pyrazoline derivatives, in regard to their anti-tuberculosis activity, has been studied using the partial least square (PLS) analysis method. QSAR model development of 64 pyrazoline derivatives was carried out to predict anti-tubercular activity. Partial least square analysis was applied to derive QSAR models, which were further evaluated for statistical significance and predictive power by internal and external validation. The best QSAR model with good external and internal predictivity for the training and test set has shown cross validation (q2) and external validation (pred_r2) values of 0.7426 and 0.7903, respectively. Two-dimensional QSAR analyses of such pyrazoline derivatives provide important structural insights for designing potent antituberculosis drugs.

Aims and Objectives: The aim of this study was to derive robust and reliable QSAR models for clarification and prediction of antioxidant activity of 43 heterocyclic and Schiff bases dipicolinic acid derivatives. According to the best obtained QSAR model, structures of new compounds with possible great activities should be proposed. Methods: Molecular descriptors were calculated by DRAGON and ADMEWORKS from optimized molecular structure and two algorithms were used for creating the training and test sets in both set of descriptors. Regression analysis and validation of models were performed using QSARINS. Results: The model with best internal validation result was obtained by DRAGON descriptors (MATS4m, EEig03d, BELm4, Mor10p), split by ranking method (R2 = 0.805; R2 ext = 0.833; F = 30.914). The model with best external validation result was obtained by ADMEWORKS descriptors (NDB, MATS5p, MDEN33, TPSA), split by random method (R2 = 0.692; R2 ext = 0.848; F = 16.818). Conclusion: Important structural requirements for great antioxidant activity are: low number of double bonds in molecules; absence of tertial nitrogen atoms; higher number of hydrogen bond donors; enhanced molecular polarity; and symmetrical moiety. Two new compounds with potentially great antioxidant activities were proposed.

Colchicine Derivatives

Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is an infective agent that causes an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Therefore, the rational design of inhibitors for preventing the progression of the disease is required. Objective: This study aims to construct quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models, molecular docking and newly rational design of colchicine and derivatives with anti-HIV activity. Methods: A data set of 24 colchicine and derivatives with anti-HIV activity were employed to develop the QSAR models using machine learning methods (e.g. multiple linear regression (MLR), artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM)), and to study a molecular docking. Results: The significant descriptors relating to the anti-HIV activity included JGI2, Mor24u, Gm and R8p+ descriptors. The predictive performance of the models gave acceptable statistical qualities as observed by correlation coefficient (Q2) and root mean square error (RMSE) of leave-one out cross-validation (LOO-CV) and external sets. Particularly, the ANN method outperformed MLR and SVM methods that displayed LOO−CV 2 Q and RMSELOO-CV of 0.7548 and 0.5735 for LOOCV set, and Ext 2 Q of 0.8553 and RMSEExt of 0.6999 for external validation. In addition, the molecular docking of virus-entry molecule (gp120 envelope glycoprotein) revealed the key interacting residues of the protein (cellular receptor, CD4) and the site-moiety preferences of colchicine derivatives as HIV entry inhibitors for binding to HIV structure. Furthermore, newly rational design of colchicine derivatives using informative QSAR and molecular docking was proposed. Conclusion: These findings serve as a guideline for the rational drug design as well as potential development of novel anti-HIV agents.

Background: The quantitative structure-activity relationship is an analysis method that can be applied for designing new molecules. In 1997, Hopfinger and coworkers developed the 4D-QSAR methodology aiming to eliminate the question of which conformation to use in a QSAR study. In this work, the 4D-QSAR methodology was used to quantitatively determine the influence of structural descriptors on the activity of aryl pyrimidine derivatives as inhibitors of the TGF-β1 receptor. The members of the TGF-β subfamily are interesting molecular targets, since they play an important function in the growth and development of cell cellular including proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and migration. In late stages, TGF-β exerts tumor-promoting effects, increasing tumor invasiveness, and metastasis. Therefore, TGF-β is an attractive target for cancer therapy. Objective: The major goal of the current research is to develop 4D-QSAR models aiming to propose new structures of aryl pyrimidine derivatives. Materials and Methods: Molecular dynamics simulation was carried out to generate the conformational ensemble profile of a data set with aryl pyrimidine derivatives. The conformations were overlaid into a three-dimensional cubic box, according to the three-ordered atom alignment. The occupation of the grid cells by the interaction of pharmacophore elements provides the grid cell occupancy descriptors (GCOD), the dependent variables used to build the 4D-QSAR models. The best models were validated (internal and external validation) using several statistical parameters. Docking molecular studies were performed to better understand the binding mode of pyrimidine derivatives inside the TGF-β active site. Results : The 4D-QSAR model presented seven descriptors and acceptable statistical parameters (R2 = 0.89, q2 = 0.68, R2pred = 0.65, r2m = 0.55, R2P = 0.68 and R2rand = 0.21) besides pharmacophores groups important for the activity of these compounds. The molecular docking studies helped to understand the pharmacophoric groups and proposed substituents that increase the potency of aryl pyrimidine derivatives. Conclusion: The best QSAR model showed adequate statistical parameters that ensure their fitness, robustness, and predictivity. Structural modifications were assessed, and five new structures were proposed as candidates for a drug for cancer treatment.

Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models play a key role in finding the relationship between molecular structures and the toxicity of nitrobenzenes to Tetrahymena pyriformis. In this work, genetic algorithm, along with partial least square (GA-PLS) was employed to select optimal subset of descriptors that have significant contribution to the toxicity of nitrobenzenes to Tetrahymena pyriformis. A set of five descriptors, namely G2, HOMT, G(Cl?Cl), Mor03v and MAXDP, was used for the prediction of the toxicity of 45 nitrobenzene derivatives and then were used to build the model by multiple linear regression (MLR) method. It turned out that the built model, whose stability was confirmed using the leave-one-out validation and external validation test, showed high statistical significance (R2=0.963, Q2LOO=0.944). Moreover, Y-scrambling test indicated there was no chance correlation in this model.

Hydroxyl benzoic esters are preservative, being widely used in food, medicine, and cosmetics. To explore the relationship between the molecular structure and antibacterial activity of these compounds and predict the compounds with similar structures, Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) models of 25 kinds of hydroxyl benzoic esters with the quantum chemical parameters and molecular connectivity indexes are built based on support vector machine (SVM) by using R language. The External Standard Deviation Error of Prediction (SDEPext), fitting correlation coefficient (R2), and leave-one-out cross-validation (Q2LOO) are used to value the reliability, stability, and predictive ability of models. The results show that R2 and Q2LOO of 4 kinds of nonlinear models are more than 0.6 and SDEPext is 0.213, 0.222, 0.189, and 0.218, respectively. Compared with the multiple linear regression (MLR) model (R2=0.421, RSD = 0.260), the correlation coefficient and the standard deviation are both better than MLR. The reliability, stability, robustness, and external predictive ability of models are good, particularly of the model of linear kernel function and eps-regression type. This model can predict the antimicrobial activity of the compounds with similar structure in the applicability domain.

A quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) study on a series of analogs of 5-aryl thiazolidine-2, 4-diones with activity on PPAR-α and PPAR-γwas made using combination of various thermodynamic, electronic and spatial descriptors. Several statistical regression expressions were obtained using multiple linear regression analysis. The best QSAR model was further validated by leave one out cross validation method. The studied revealed that for dual PPAR-α/γactivity dipole-dipole energy and PMI-Z play significant role and contributed positively for PPAR-γand PPAR-α activity respectively. Thus, QSAR brings important structural insight to aid the design of dual PPAR-α /γreceptor agonist.

A series of imidazothiazole and oxazolopyridine derivatives as human Silent Information Regulator 1 (SIRT1) activators were subjected to the integrated 2D and 3D QSAR approaches. The derived 3D QSAR models yielded high cross-validated q2 values of 0.682 and 0.628 for CoMFA and CoMSIA, respectively. The non-cross validated values of r2 training = 0.89; predictive r2 test = 0.69 for CoMFA and r2=0.87; predictive r2 test =0.67 for CoMSIA reflected the statistical significance of the developed model. The steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic and hydrogen bond acceptor interactions have been found important in describing the variation in human SIRT1 activation. Further, 2D QSAR model for the same dataset yielded high statistical significance and derived 2D model’s parameters corroborated with the 3D model in terms of features. Derived model was also validated by the crystal structure of active conformation of SIRT1. Developed models may be useful for the identification of potential novel human SIRT1 activators as a therapeutic agent.
