Background: Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) protects the central nervous system from the systemic circulation and maintains the homeostasis of the brain. BBB permeability is one of the essential characteristics of drugs acting on the central nervous system to indicate if the drug could reach the brain or not. The available laboratory methods for the prediction of BBB permeability are accurate but expensive and time-consuming. Therefore, many attempts have been made over the years to predict the BBB permeability of compounds using computational approaches. The accuracy of the prediction models with external dataset has always been an issue with the prediction models. Objective: To develop Machine learning-based BBB permeability prediction model using physicochemical properties and molecular fingerprints Method: Support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbor (kNN), Random forest (RF), and Naïve Bayes (NB) algorithms were applied on a large dataset of 1978 compounds using 1917 feature vectors containing physicochemical properties, MACCS fingerprints, and substructure fingerprints to predict the BBB permeability. Results and Discussion: The comparative analysis of performance metrics of developed models suggested that SVM with the radial basis function kernel performed better as compared to the kNN, RF, and NB algorithms. The BBB permeability prediction model's accuracy with the SVM was 96.77%. The prediction performance of the model developed in this study found better than the existing machine learning-based BBB permeability prediction models. Conclusion: The prediction model developed in this study could be useful for screening compounds based on their BBB permeability at the preliminary stages of drug design and development.

AbstractMotivationAntimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are innate immune components that have aroused a great deal of interest among drug developers recently, as they may become a substitution for antibiotics. However, AMPs discovery through traditional wet-lab research is expensive and inefficient. Thus, we developed AI4AMP, a user-friendly web-server that provides an accurate prediction of the antimicrobial activity of a given protein sequence, to accelerate the process of AMP discovery.ResultsOur results show that our prediction model is superior to the existing AMP predictors.AvailabilityAI4AMP is freely accessible at http://symbiosis.iis.sinica.edu.tw/PC_6/[email protected]

The industrial importance of metal catalysts supported on reducible oxides has stimulated considerable interest during the last few years. This presentation reports on the study of the physicochemical properties of metallic rhodium supported on vanadium pentoxide (Rh/V2O5). Electron optical methods, in conjunction with other techniques, were used to characterise the catalyst before its use in the hydrogenolysis of butane; a reaction for which Rh metal is known to be among the most active catalysts.V2O5 powder was prepared by thermal decomposition of high purity ammonium metavanadate in air at 400 °C for 2 hours. Previous studies of the microstructure of this compound, by HREM, SEM and gas adsorption, showed it to be non— porous with a very low surface area of 6m2/g3. The metal loading of the catalyst used was lwt%Rh on V2Q5. It was prepared by wet impregnating the support with an aqueous solution of RhCI3.3H2O.
