Abstract:
Colorectal cancer is associated with inflammation. A systematic data-mining [1] study was performed to investigate colorectal cancer related targets for inhibitors of GSK3β. Morgan fingerprints were calculated for all studied compounds. Tanimoto index was calculated using fingerprints and compounds with Tanimoto >0.7 was indicated as similar. The developed procedure for target prediction was run using knime platform. RDKit and Chemaxon were used to fingerprint calculation. The inhibitors were extracted from Chembl25. According to the results some GSK3β inhibitors can be an inhibitor for AKT, IKKA, PKB and CDK1 as well. The reliability of the results was evaluated using the available evidences for the inhibition of predicted targets from literature and the survey showed that there is published evidences for the inhibition of IKKα, PKB and CDK1. The mode of interaction of the compounds with the highest and lowest potency were evaluated using molecular docking methods and the results indicated good correlation with experimental results. In conclusion the developed method is reliable for the target prediction.
