A diverse compound library with favorable ADMET properties (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity) is crucial in drug discovery. Early evaluation of ADMET properties allows for the exclusion of molecules with unfavorable profiles at the initial stages, thereby reducing the risk of late-stage development failures, lowering R&D costs, and accelerating optimization of lead compounds. Based on predictions from ADMET-related AI algorithms, the compounds in this library are predicted to exhibit favorable oral bioavailability (F > 30%), reasonable plasma protein binding (PPB < 98%), minimized CYP3A4 inhibition potential (inhibition probability < 50%, CYP3A4 is the most critical drug-metabolizing enzyme in the cytochrome P450 family) , low toxicity profiles, with 140 potentially toxic substructures pre-identified and excluded via substructure searching to eliminate compounds containing hazardous fragments. The diversity library enables broad applicability in high-throughput screening (HTS) and high-content screening (HCS).
Ion channels are key proteins on the cell membrane that regulate the flow of ions across membranes. They participate in nearly all physiological processes, including nerve conduction, muscle contraction, heart rhythm, and pain perception. Abnormalities in their function can lead to various serious diseases such as arrhythmia, epilepsy, hypertension, neuropathic pain, and cancer. Therefore, ion channels are highly valuable drug targets—over 15% of approved drugs target ion channels currently, demonstrating their irreplaceable therapeutic value in cardiovascular, neurological, and analgesic fields.
MCE has collected a library of over 5,000 reported ion channel-related bioactive compounds targeting major sites such as Na+ channels, K+ channels, Ca2+ channels, GABA receptors, iGluRs, and others. Using AI models, these compounds are characterized through both 2D representations (molecular fingerprints, pharmacophores) and 3D representations (3D conformation) to screen for a collection of lead-like compounds highly similar to known active molecules. Additionally, an hERG channel prediction algorithm integrating XGB and ISE mapping strategy is employed to assess and exclude potential cardiotoxicity in the library.. This step significantly reduces safety risks in subsequent screenings, particularly for ion channel drug development related to cardiovascular systems (e.g., Nav1.5, Cav1.2), effectively minimizing failures due to hERG inhibition and serving as a valuable tool for ion channel drug screening.
