Improved Classification of Blood-Brain-Barrier Drugs Using Deep Learning.

ABSTRACT: Blood-Brain-Barrier (BBB) is a strict permeability barrier for maintaining the Central Nervous System (CNS) homeostasis. One of the most important conditions to judge a CNS drug is to figure out whether it has BBB permeability or not. In the past 20 years, the existing prediction approaches are usually based on the data of the physical characteristics and chemical structure of drugs. However, these methods are usually only applicable to small molecule compounds based on passive diffusion through BBB. To deal this problem, one of the most famous methods is multi-core SVM method, which is based on clinical phenotypes about Drug Side Effects and Drug Indications to predict drug penetration of BBB. This paper proposed a Deep Learning method to predict the Blood-Brain-Barrier permeability based
