【 摘 要 】

The application of QSAR analysis dates back a half-century ago and is currently continuously employed in any rational drug design. The multi-dimensional QSAR modeling can be a promising tool for researchers to develop reliable predictive QSAR models for designing novel compounds. In the present work, we studied inhibitors of human aldose reductase (AR) to generate multi-dimensional QSAR models using 3D- and 6D-QSAR methods. For this purpose, Pentacle and Quasar’s programs were used to produce the QSAR models using corresponding dissociation constant (Kd) values. By inspecting the performance metrics of the generated models, we achieved similar results with comparable internal validation statistics. However, considering the externally validated values, 6D-QSAR models provide significantly better prediction of endpoint values. The obtained results suggest that the higher the dimension of the QSAR model, the higher the performance of the generated model. However, more studies are required to verify these outcomes.
