Abstract
The virtual environment within the computer using software performed on the computer is known as in-silico studies. These drugs designing software play a vital task in discovering new drugs in the field of pharmaceuticals. These designing programs and software are employed in gene sequencing, molecular modeling, and in assessing the three-dimensional structure of the molecule, which can further be used in drug designing and development. Drug development and discovery is not only a powerful, extensive, and an interdisciplinary system but also a very complex and time-consuming method. This book chapter mainly focused on different types of in-silico approaches along with their pharmaceutical applications in numerous diseases.
Keywords: in-silico approaches , lead optimization, molecular docking, pharmaceutical application,
1.1 Introduction
The in-silico means âperformed on the computerâ by creating a virtual environment within the computer using the software. These drugs designing software play a significant job in designing new drugs in the field of pharmaceuticals. These programs and software have been engaged in gene sequencing, molecular modeling, and in assessing the three-dimensional (3D) structure of drug candidates, which can further be used in drug designing, formulation, and development. Drug development and discovery is an extensive, authoritative, potential, and an interdisciplinary system but is of complex and time-consuming process. The substantial impetus toward the practice of in-silico studies and molecular docking has been increased for computer-aided drug design [1]. There are many aspects that are responsible for its failure may be due to some side effects, less efficacy, or poor pharmacokinetics. The in-silico drug design requires skills from different fields like structural and molecular biology, nanotechnology, biochemistry, biophysics, and computational scientist. The major objective is to implement research projects for discovering new compounds with desired therapeutic effect [2, 3]. The process of drug discovery involves different steps which are given as below:
1.1.1 Target recognition
Target Identification includes detection and isolation of the specific targets to examine their association with disease.
1.1.2 Target confirmation
Target Validation is the characterization of the pharmacological response resulted from the alterations done in the activity of a target protein.
1.1.3 Lead discovery
Lead discovery involves a chemical compound that has some specificity and effectiveness in contrast to the biological target and is expected that the drug formed can cure the specific disease.
1.1.4 Lead optimization
Lead Optimization is the modification in the chemical structure to improve targets selectivity and specificity. This also helps to improve potency, pharmacodynamic, and pharmacokinetic properties of the drug. Both in-vitro and in-vivo experiments are performed in the screening of the lead compound and for developing an efficient and safe drug.
1.1.5 Preclinical studies
A preclinical study is a stage that starts before the clinical trials and during which important tests are conducted on animals for checking the potency as well as the toxicity of the drug. During the preclinical trials, the drug safety data are collected. The major aim is to provide the safe dose for the clinical trials done on humans.
1.1.6 Clinical trials
Clinical trials include human volunteers on which testing of the new drug which passed the preclinical trial is done, to check if there is any harmful side effect is present or not also to determine its effectiveness a...
