Early Toxicity Screening and Selection of Lead Compounds for Parasitic Diseases

Abstract: Despite many advances made in disease mechanisms knowledge and drug discovery and development processes, the election of promising lead compounds continues to be a challenge. Efficient techniques are required for lead selection of hit compounds selected through in vitro pharmacological studies, in order to generate precise low cost throughput data with minimal amount of compound to support the right decision making. In this context, the selection of lead compounds with physicochemical parameters that will bene… Show more

“…A successful drug is a combination of drug-like properties and biological activity with tolerable toxicity. Poor pharmaceutical properties due to poor solubility, permeability and metabolic stability account for about 40% of compounds that fail to reach the market [31][32][33]. During the hit identification stage, chemical libraries from different origins can be screened over a defined target using high-through put methods.…”

“…A great range of methods are widely used in predictive and multi-mechanisms screens based on chemical libraries in search for drugs with therapeutic potential [33,40,41]. The goal of those procedures is to evaluate, with reasonable accuracy, the potential of a compound to become a drug.…”
