Abstract
Dendrimers are employed as functional elements in contrast agents and are proposed as nontoxic vehicles for drug delivery. Toxicity is a property that is to be evaluated for this novel class of bionanomaterials for in vivo applications. The current research is hampered due to the lack of structured data sets for toxicity studies for dendrimers. In this work, we have built a data set by curating literature for toxicity data and augmented it with structural and physicochemical features. We present a comprehensive, feature-rich database of dendrimer toxicity measured across various cell lines for prediction, design, and optimization studies. We have also explored novel computational approaches for predicting dendrimer cytotoxicity. We demonstrate superior outcomes for toxicity prediction using essential regression in the space of small data sets.
