Abstract

Purpose: In this review, a set of aryl halides analogs were identified as potent checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) inhibitors through a series of computer-aided drug design processes, to develop models with good predictive ability, highlight the important interactions between the ligand and the Chk1 receptor protein and determine properties of the new proposed drugs as Chk1 inhibitors agents. Methods: Three-dimensional quantitative structure–activity relationship (3D-QSAR) modeling, molecular docking and absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) approaches are used to determine structure activity relationship and confirm the stable conformation on the receptor pocket. Results: The statistical analysis results of comparative -molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) models that employed for a training set of 24 compounds gives reliable values of Q2 (0.70 and 0.94, respectively) and R2 (0.68 and 0.96, respectively). Conclusion: Computer–aided drug design tools used to develop models that possess good predictive ability, and to determine the stability of the observed and predicted molecules in the receptor pocket, also in silico of pharmacokinetic (ADMET) results shows good properties and bioavailability for these new proposed Chk1 inhibitors agents.

Highlights

  • Quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) methodology is an essential tool in modern medicinal chemistry try to relate the biological activity of a series of chemicals to their physicochemical and structural properties, relying on the concept that similar structures can have similar properties and when the differences between compounds are high, the correlation of their properties with activities becomes hard, whereas the correlations between highly similar molecules are easier.[1]

Summary

Introduction

Quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) methodology is an essential tool in modern medicinal chemistry try to relate the biological activity of a series of chemicals to their physicochemical and structural properties, relying on the concept that similar structures can have similar properties and when the differences between compounds are high, the correlation of their properties with activities becomes hard, whereas the correlations between highly similar molecules are easier.[1]. This study carried out comparative -molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) to predict the activity of 24 aromatic halides compounds present cytotoxicity activities retrieved from literature,[2,3,4] and propose new competent drugs. We performed an in silico study concerning the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET), which has created a unique interdisciplinary interface between medicinal chemist and clinicians. These crucial proprieties are usually used to finalize clinical success of a drug candidate, because it has been estimated that 50% of drugs fail as results of poor bioavailability
