The use of machine learning modeling, virtual screening, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations to identify potential VEGFR2 kinase inhibitors

Abstract: Targeting the signaling pathway of the Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 is a promising approach that has drawn attention in the quest to develop novel anti-cancer drugs and cardiovascular disease treatments. We construct a screening pipeline using machine learning classification integrated with similarity checks of approved drugs to find new inhibitors. The statistical metrics reveal that the random forest approach has slightly better performance. By further similarity screening against several ap… Show more

“…The literature is replete with in silico analyses of structure relationships that have led to the identification and development of clinically effective small-molecule inhibitors. This has occurred in the science of pharmacognosy as well as in drug development [92]. These same approaches now need to be applied to the food metabolome: certain postprandial metabolites detected in circulation possess the same or functionally similar biochemical/pharmacological properties as the components of small-molecule drugs found in the previous step; therefore, exposure of tissues to them mimics administration of small-molecule inhibitors of interest, i.e., we are selecting for food metabolites of similar biochemical functionality as the small-molecule inhibitors selected for specific cancer type.…”
