Hopkins Part A: Polypharmacology - a safety concern in drug discovery. 1 The relevance of off-target polypharmacology Bruce D. Car 2 Screening for safety-relevant off-target activities Laszlo Urban, Steven Whitebread, Jacques Hamon, Dmitri Mikhailov and Kamal Azzaoui 2.1 Introduction. 2.2 General aspects. 2.3 Selection of off-targets. 2.4 In silico approaches to off-target profiling. 2.5 Summary and conclusions. 3 Pharmacological promiscuity and molecular properties JensUwe Peters 3.1 Introduction: pharmacological promiscuity in the history of drug discovery. 3.2 Lipophilicity. 3.3 Molecular weight. 3.4 Ionisation state. 3.5 Other molecular descriptors and structural motifs. 3.6 Implications for drug discovery. 4 Kinases as antitargets in genotoxicity Stephan Kirchner 4.1 Protein Kinases and inhibitor-binding sites. 4.2 CyclinDependent Kinases (CDKs) controlling unregulated cell proliferation. 4.3 Mitotic kinases as guardians protecting cells from aberrant chromosome segregation. 5 Activity at cardiovascular ion channels: a key issue for drug discovery Ian M. Bell, Mark T. Bilodeau and Armando A. Lagrutta 5.1 Introduction. 5.2 Screening methods. 5.3 Structural insights into the interaction between drugs and CV ion channels. 5.4 Medicinal Chemistry approaches. 5.5 Conclusion. 6 Prediction of side effects based on fingerprint profiling and data mining Jacques Migeon 6.1 Introduction to BioPrint. 6.2 The pharmacological fingerprint. 6.3 Antidepressant example. 6.4 Profile similarity at non-therapeutic targets. 6.5 Interpreting the polypharmacology profile. 6.6 Methods. 6.7 Patterns of activity. 6.8 Integrating function profile data with traditional pharmacological binding data. 6.9 Analysis of the antifungal tioconazole. 6.10 Conclusions.
