Summary: This study aims to discover promising active compounds for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease by inhibiting Acetylcholinesterase and Butyrylcholinesterase enzymes, through the establishment of two robust QSAR models. The results show a good prediction capacity of the models, leading to the screening of potential compounds with higher biological activity. Further drug-likeness evaluation and reactivity study suggest that the newly designed candidate drugs have promising potential and should be experimentally investigated for AChE and BuChE enzyme inhibition.

Summary: QSAR models were developed to predict the inhibition activities of tricyclic heterocycle piperazine (piperidine) derivatives against D-2, 5-HT1A, and 5-HT2A receptors. These models identified chemical structural features that improve the activities of molecules. Reliable MLR and CoMFA models were developed for D-2 inhibition activities, and reliable MLR and epsilon-SVR models were developed for 5-HT2A inhibition activities. Three QSAR models (based on CoMFA, MLR, and epsilon-SVR) were developed for 5-HT1A inhibition activities. The applicability domain of all models was investigated, and statistical parameters were calculated to validate the models.

Summary: In this study, the efficacy of 34 pyrazoline derivatives as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors was investigated using computational methods. Quantum descriptors were calculated, and four models were created to predict the pIC50 values of six chemicals in a test set. Each model was validated internally and externally, and Model 3 was chosen based on its higher R-2, R-test(2), and Q(cv)(2) values (R-2 = 0.79, R-test(2) = 0.95, Q(cv)(2) = 0.64). New molecules with significant inhibitory activity could be proposed based on the descriptors of the model.

Summary: In this study, a 3D-QSAR analysis was performed on a series of 2, 4, 5-trisubstituted imidazole derivatives to design potent kinase II alpha subunit (CK2) inhibitors. The COMFA and COMSIA models showed excellent performance with high Q(2) and R-2 values. The validity of the models was confirmed through various validation tests. The study's findings provide useful theoretical references for future experimental studies.

Summary: This study aimed to predict the anti-colon and anti-hepatoma cancer activity of newly designed substituted 4-anilino coumarin derivatives using quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR). QSAR models were generated by optimizing the molecular and electronic properties data through H-GGA DFT/BPV86 method calculation. Two validated QSAR models were obtained, which successfully predicted the anticancer activity of 17 newly designed derivatives.

Summary: This paper proposes a machine learning model, BPCSVR, which has high predictive accuracy and stable prediction ability. By comparing multiple molecular descriptors, MACCS fingerprint and ECFP6 fingerprint were selected as inputs. The model's stable prediction ability was improved by integrating multiple models and correcting similar samples. After comparing the multiclass models, the results show that the BPCSVR model has stable prediction ability in different data sets and higher prediction accuracy than other comparison models.

Summary: In this study, 3D-QSAR, molecular docking, ADMET, and molecular dynamics were used to investigate the inhibitory activity of 1,2,3-triazole derivatives against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The 3D-QSAR study revealed CoMFA and CoMSIA models with good predictability. Molecular docking confirmed the interaction between Gln164 and Lys160 residues at the H37Rv active site. Furthermore, the ADMET properties and drug similarity of the new inhibitors were analyzed. These findings can aid in the development of new therapeutic candidates against multidrug-resistant tuberculosis.

Summary: This study focused on the structural requirements of arylsulfonamides for better gelatinase inhibition and utilized regression-based 2D-QSAR, topomer CoMFA, and Bayesian classification models to refine structural features. Descriptors like nsssN, SHBint6, SHBint7, PubchemFP629 were found to be directly correlated with MMP-2 binding affinities, while nsssN, SHBint10, and AATS2i were proportional to MMP-9 binding affinities. The results highlighted the importance of steric and electrostatic fields in gelatinase inhibition and may provide insights for future development of aryl sulphonamide based gelatinase inhibitors.

Summary: A series of pyrrole derivatives were studied using QSAR in order to investigate their antioxidant scavenging activities. The GA-MLR and QSAR-ANN models were used to establish relationships between the molecular descriptors and the scavenging activities. Both models showed good predictive abilities, with high R-2 values and low RMSE values in the test set. The key molecular descriptors for the antioxidant activities were bond length, HOMO energy, polarizability, and AlogP.

Summary: In this study, 3D-QSAR analysis was performed to investigate the structure-activity relationship of collagen hydrolysate peptides. The results showed that Hyp, rather than Pro, had a greater impact on improving antiplatelet activity. The predicted peptide EOGE exhibited antiplatelet activity and inhibited thrombus formation.
