BMC Systems Biology 2019, 13(Suppl 2):39 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12918-019-0691-1 RESEARCH Open Access Network-based characterization of drug-protein interaction signatures with a space-efficient approach Yasuo Tabei1*, Masaaki Kotera2, Ryusuke Sawada3 and Yoshihiro Yamanishi3,4 From The 17th Asia Pacific Bioinformatics Conference (APBC 2019) Wuhan, China. 14–16 January 2019 Abstract Background: Characterization of drug-protein interaction networks with biological features has recently become challenging in recent pharmaceutical science toward a better understanding of polypharmacology. Results: We present a novel method for systematic analyses of the underlying features characteristic of drug-protein interaction networks, which we call “drug-protein interaction signatures” from the integration of large-scale heterogeneous data of drugs and proteins. We develop a new efficient algorithm for extracting informative drug- protein interaction signatures from the integration of large-scale heterogeneous data of drugs and proteins, which is made possible by space-efficient representations for fingerprints of drug-protein pairs and sparsity-induced classifiers. Conclusions: Our method infers a set of drug-protein interaction signatures consisting of the associations between drug chemical substructures, adverse drug reactions, protein domains, biological pathways, and pathway modules. We argue the these signatures are biologically meaningful and useful for predicting unknown drug-protein interactions and are expected to contribute to rational drug design. Keywords: Drug-protein interaction prediction, Drug discovery, Large-scale prediction Background similar drugs are expected to interact with similar pro- Target proteins of drug molecules are classified into a pri- teins, with which the similarity of drugs and proteins are mary target and off-targets.

  • Anabolic Steroids – a Problem in Popular Sports
    T + K (2002) 69 (3): 136 Anabolic steroids – a problem in popular sports Ulrich Hoffmann Institute of Pharmacology, Ernst-Moritz-Arndt University, D-17487 Greifswald, F.-Loeffler Str. 23 d e-mail : [email protected] Abstract The sportsmen self-administering androgenic-anabolic agents to improve their performance and their body shape continue to be a problem. After the opening of the East European borders a large number of compounds are offered on the black market and in fitness centres. As a consequence students and children practicing no sport use these agents. Most athletes have only a crude pharmacological knowledge regarding these drugs. Their information are derived from their own experience or experiences of other sportsmen. Therefore warnings con- cerning the efficacy and potential dangers of steroid misuse are neglected. Studies suggest that anabolic steroids are now the third most commonly offered drugs behind cannabis and amphetamines. The anabolic black market is a lucrative commercial business and its volume amounts to 70 Mill. €/year approximately. This paper will focus the attention on the common anabolic steroid misconceptions and review the adverse ef- fects and the problems connected with the use of the illicit drugs. 1. Introduction The use of performance enhancing drugs is not limited to elite athletes. Sociocultural stan- dards of beauty for males emphasize strength and muscularity. The broad-shouldered, narrow- hipped male body is idealized in Western media. Weight machines and performance enhanc- ing supplements are widely advertised in health and fitness centers [1]. The number of sportsmen in semi-professional as well as in popular sports self-administering ergogenic pharmacological agents continues to be a problem.

Association of Racing Commissioners International 2365 Harrodsburg Road- B450 Lexington, Kentucky, USA www.arci.com Page 1 of 66 Preamble to the Uniform Classification Guidelines of Foreign Substances The Preamble to the Uniform Classification Guidelines was approved by the RCI Drug Testing and Quality Assurance Program Committee (now the Drug Testing Standards and Practices Program Committee) on August 26, 1991. Minor revisions to the Preamble were made by the Drug Classification subcommittee (now the Veterinary Pharmacologists Subcommittee) on September 3, 1991. "The Uniform Classification Guidelines printed on the following pages are intended to assist stewards, hearing officers and racing commissioners in evaluating the seriousness of alleged violations of medication and prohibited substance rules in racing jurisdictions. Practicing equine veterinarians, state veterinarians, and equine pharmacologists are available and should be consulted to explain the pharmacological effects of the drugs listed in each class prior to any decisions with respect to penalities to be imposed. The ranking of drugs is based on their pharmacology, their ability to influence the outcome of a race, whether or not they have legitimate therapeutic uses in the racing horse, or other evidence that they may be used improperly. These classes of drugs are intended only as guidelines and should be employed only to assist persons adjudicating facts and opinions in understanding the seriousness of the alleged offenses. The facts of each case are always different and there may be mitigating circumstances which should always be considered.

USE OF INTERNAL STANDARDS The World Anti-Doping Agency wishes to draw the attention of the Laboratories to the following issues that may affect Laboratory operations. This pertains, in particular, to the selection of internal standards for the analysis of androgenic anabolic steroids (AAS) by chromatographic-mass spectrometric techniques: 1. Use of 17α-Methyltestosterone as internal standard Laboratories shall exercise caution regarding the use of 17α-Methyltestosterone (MT) as an internal standard when analyzing steroids by chromatographic-mass spectrometric techniques. This applies, most importantly, to the Confirmation Procedures. The use of MT as an internal standard may lead to the formation of 17-methyl-5-androstane-3,17-diol and 17-methyl-5-androstane-3,17-diol1 when microbial activity is present in urine Samples and, therefore, to the consequent misinterpretation of the result as an Adverse Analytical Finding. In addition to MT, these artifacts are known Metabolites of various exogenous steroids (e.g. mestanolone, metandienone, oxymetholone, methandriol, and methyl-1- testosterone). Therefore, it is highly recommended that Laboratory Confirmation Procedures for AAS have the following characteristics: Avoid metabolic links between the Presumptive Adverse Analytical Finding and the internal standard e.g. by using deuterated (2H)- or carbon (13C)-labeled internal standards of endogenous steroids instead of MT or any other exogenous AAS; Incorporate solid phased extraction (SPE) to clean up the Sample prior to the enzymatic hydrolysis, since incubating directly already contaminated urine Samples may lead to the formation of microbial degradation artifacts and alter the “steroid profile”.

  • CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION Use of Steroids in Sports Such
    CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION The drugs are artificially derived from the main male hormone Testosterone. Testosterone is important for promoting and maintaining muscle growth and developing secondary male sex characteristics, such as a deepening voice and facial hair. Anabolic steroids, also called Anabolic-Androgenic Steroids (AASs), can build muscle and improve athletic performance, but they can also have significant adverse effects, especially when used incorrectly. Long-term, non-medical uses are linked to heart problems, unwanted physical changes, and aggression. There is growing concern worldwide about the non- medical use of steroids and its effects. Street names include Arnolds, gym candy, pumpers, roids, and stackers. AASs are synthetic versions of the primary male hormone, testosterone. They affect many parts of the body, including the muscles, bones, hair follicles, liver, kidneys, blood, immune system, reproductive system and the central nervous system. During puberty, increases in testosterone levels enable the development of characteristics such as facial and body hair growth, increased height and muscle mass, a deepening voice, and the sex drive. Testosterone can also contribute to competitiveness, self-esteem, and aggressiveness. Continuous use of AASs can lead to problems such as tolerance. They may even cause the body to stop producing its own testosterone. Some people use AASs continuously, but others try to minimize their possible adverse effects through different patterns of use. Use of Steroids In Sports Such As: 1. Cycling: The person takes AASs in cycles of 6 to 12 weeks known as the "on" period, followed by 4 weeks to several months off. 2. Stacking: Users combine several different types of steroids or incorporate other supplements in an attempt to maximize the effectiveness of the steroids.
