A QSAR model of Olanzapine derivatives as potential inhibitors for 5-HT2A Receptor.

A QSAR model of Olanzapine derivatives as potential inhibitors for 5-HT2A Receptor. Bioinformation. 2017;13(10):339-342 Authors: Mitra P, Rastogi A, Rajpoot M, Kumar A, Srivastava V Abstract Schizophrenia is a complex, chronic mental disorder, affecting about 21 million people worldwide. It is characterized by symptoms, including distortions in thinking, perception, emotions, disorganized speech, sense of self and behavior. Recently, a numbers of marketed drugs for Schizophrenia are available against dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT2A receptors. Here, we docked Olanzapine derivatives (collected from literature) with 5-HT2A Receptor using the program AutoDock 4.2. The docked protein inhibitor complex structure was optimized using molecular dynamics simulation for 5ps with the CHARMM-22 force field using NAMD (NAnoscale Molecular Dynamics program) incorporated in visual molecular dynamics (VMD 1.9.2) and then evaluating the stability of complex structure by calculating RMSD values. NAMD is a parallel, object-oriented molecular dynamics code designed for high-performance simulation of large biomolecular systems. A quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) model was built using energy-based descriptors as independent variable and pKi value as dependent variable of eleven known Olanzapine derivatives with 5-HT2A Receptor, yielding correlation coefficient r2 of 0.63861. The predictive performance of QSAR model was assessed using di...
