Computationally Guided Design of Novel Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
Lam, J. D.; Riley, M.; Siegel, J. B.
Show abstract
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) such as Moexipril, Trandolapril, Ramipril, and Perindopril are used to treat hypertension. However, these drugs have undesired side effects. Using computational studies, two new novel drug candidates were designed with improved molecular interactions, ADMET properties, and docking scores compared to Moexipril. Homology analysis was done to determine the best animal model for preclinical studies, and it revealed that Pan troglodytes (chim-panzees) and Mus musculus (house mouse) were the best candidates.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
