Popis
Shrnutí:Predicting new therapeutic effects (drug repositioning) of existing drugs plays an important role in drug development. However, traditional wet experimental prediction methods are usually time-consuming and costly. The emergence of more and more artificial intelligence-based drug repositioning methods in the past 2 years has facilitated drug development. In this study we propose a drug repositioning method, VGAEDR, based on a heterogeneous network of multiple drug attributes and a variational graph autoencoder. First, a drug-disease heterogeneous network is established based on three drug attributes, disease semantic information, and known drug-disease associations. Second, low-dimensional feature representations for heterogeneous networks are learned through a variational graph autoencoder module and a multi-layer convolutional module. Finally, the feature representation is fed to a fully connected layer and a Softmax layer to predict new drug-disease associations. Comparative experiments with other baseline methods on three datasets demonstrate the excellent performance of VGAEDR. In the case study, we predicted the top 10 possible anti-COVID-19 drugs on the existing drug and disease data, and six of them were verified by other literatures.
