Abstract
The pharmacophore modeling in modern drug research has been applied for both bioactivity profiling and early stage of risk assessment of potential side effects and toxicity due to interactions of drug candidates with antitargets namely P-glycoprotein, hERG, cytochrome P450 and pregnane X-receptor. In this article, an existing state concerning with pharmacophore modeling applied for promiscuous proteins in drug research were updated and reviewed. In an attempt to create new safe medicines faster, the partial overlap of substrate properties of hERG, P-glycoprotein, pregnane X-receptor and cytochrome P450 has to be considered and drug safety has to be dealt on a system level on the off-targets.
Keywords: Antitargets, P-glycoprotein, Human ether-a-go-go related gene, Cytochrome P450, Pregnane X-receptor, Pharmacophore modeling, hERG, P-gp, ABCB1.

Chemistry Based on Natural Products for Therapeutic Purposes
The development of new pharmaceuticals for a wide range of medical conditions has long relied on the identification of promising natural products (NPs). There are over sixty percent of cancer, infectious illness, and CNS disease medications that include an NP pharmacophore, according to the Food and Drug Administration. Since NP ...read more
Current Trends in Drug Discovery Based on Artificial Intelligence and Computer-Aided Drug Design
Drug development discovery has faced several challenges over the years. In fact, the evolution of classical approaches to modern methods using computational methods, or Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD), has shown promising and essential results in any drug discovery campaign. Among these methods, molecular docking is one of the most notable ...read more

AI techniques are increasingly integrated and accelerating the drug discovery process. These developments have not only attracted the attention of academia and industry but also raised important questions regarding the selection ...read more
From Biodiversity to Chemical Diversity: Focus of Flavonoids
Flavonoids are the largest group of polyphenols, plant secondary metabolites arising from the essential aromatic amino acid phenylalanine (or more rarely from tyrosine) via the phenylpropanoid pathway. The flavan nucleus is the basic 15-carbon skeleton of flavonoids (C6-C3-C6), which consists of two phenyl rings (A and B) and a heterocyclic ...read more
