摘要:

本研究选择了5个TLR7激动剂作为训练集, 使用Discovery Studio软件包构建了TLR7激动剂的药效团模型。最终获得的最优药效团模型Hypo2由一个氢键受体、一个氢键给体和两个疏水中心组成, 对训练集和测试集具有较好的预测能力。此外, 将Hypo2作为提问结构搜索由79个不同活性的TLR7激动剂 (0.2-5000 nM) 组成的化合物库, 该模型能有效将数据库中高活性的TLR7激动剂识别为目标化合物。分子对接研究进一步验证了该药效团模型的合理性。本研究获得的TLR7激动剂药效团模型有助于发现新型TLR7激动剂。

Abstract:

Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7), the best known TLRs, has been demonstrated to be useful in fighting against infectious disease. In our study, three-dimensional (3D) pharmacophore models were constructed from a set of 5 TLR7 agonists. Among the 10 common-featured models generated by program Discovery Studio/HipHop, a hypothesis (Hypo2) including one hydrogen-bond donor (D), one hydrogen-bond acceptor (A), and two hydrophobic (H) features was considered to be important in evaluating the ligands with TLR7 agonistic activity. The obtained pharmacophore model was further validated using a set of test molecules and the Catalyst TLR7-agonist-subset database. Hypo2 has been shown to identify a range of highly potent TLR7 agonists. Finally, the obtained pharmacophore was further validated using docking studies. Taken together, this model can be utilized as a guide for future studies to design the structurally novel TLR7 agonists.
