Antiproliferative Activity Predictor: A New Reliable In Silico Tool for Drug Response Prediction against NCI60 Panel.
2022
In vitro antiproliferative assays still represent one of the most important tools in the anticancer drug discovery field, especially to gain insights into the mechanisms of action of anticancer small molecules. The NCI-DTP (National Cancer Institute Developmental Therapeutics Program) undoubtedly represents the most famous project aimed at rapidly testing thousands of compounds against multiple tumor cell lines (NCI60). The large amount of biological data stored in the National Cancer Institute (NCI) database and many other databases has led researchers in the fields of computational biology and medicinal chemistry to develop tools to predict the anticancer properties of new agents in advan…
Correlation between cell line chemosensitivity and protein expression pattern as new approach for the design of targeted anticancer small molecules
2022
BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE: Over the past few decades, several databases with a significant amount of biological data related to cancer cells and anticancer agents (e.g.: National Cancer Institute database, NCI; Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, CCLE; Genomic and Drug Sensitivity in Cancer portal, GDSC) have been developed. The huge amount of heterogeneous biological data extractable from these databanks (among all, drug response and protein expression) provides a real foundation for predictive cancer chemogenomics, which aims to investigate the relationships between genomic traits and the response of cancer cells to drug treatment with the aim to identify novel therapeutic molecules and targets…
