Abstract:
Algorithms of the simulation of the anticancer activity of nanoparticles under different experimental conditions toward cell lines A549 (lung cancer), THP-1 (leukemia), MCF-7 (breast cancer), Caco2 (cervical cancer), and hepG2 (hepatoma) have been developed using the quasi-SMILES approach. This approach is suggested as an efficient tool for the quantitative structure-property-activity relationships (QSPRs/QSARs) analysis of the above nanoparticles. The studied model is built up using the so-called vector of ideality of correlation. The components of this vector include the index of ideality of correlation (IIC) and the correlation intensity index (CII). The epistemological component of this study is the development of methods of registration, storage, and effective use of experimental situations that are comfortable for the researcher-experimentalist in order to be able to control the physicochemical and biochemical consequences of using nanomaterials. The proposed approach differs from the traditional models based on QSPR/QSAR in the following respects: (i) not molecules but experimental situations available in a database are considered; in other words, an answer is offered to the question of how to change the plot of the experiment in order to achieve the desired values of the endpoint being studied; and (ii) the user has the ability to select a list of controlled conditions available in the database that can affect the endpoint and evaluate how significant the influence of the selected controlled experimental conditions is.
