Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of new drug discovery prediction, and in particular to a drug-target interaction prediction method and device based on characterization alignment space. Background Art

[0002] Drug discovery is a complex and multi-stage process that aims to identify and develop new compounds that can effectively treat specific diseases. Predicting drug-target interactions (DTI) helps scientists determine which drug molecules may effectively bind to and regulate specific biological targets, which is a key challenge in the drug discovery process. However, traditional drug discovery methods, such as protein structure analysis, are not only time-consuming but also costly to identify DTI. In addition, experimental operations may also be limited by aspects such as sample preparation, which further increases the difficulty of drug discovery.

[0003] Currently, in order to solve this problem, researchers have developed machine learning and artificial intelligence driven models to improve prediction efficiency and accuracy. These algorithms can predict possible DTI patterns and associations in the network by analyzing heterogeneous biomedical networks composed of biological entities such as drugs, target structures, and drug targets.

[0004] Existing methods cannot predict DTI associations for new drugs outside of biomedical networks because they rely on a large amount of prior data and known associations. When this data is lacking, the model has difficulty making accurate predictions, which is known as the cold start problem. Solving the cold start problem is key to new drug discovery and improving the accuracy of new drug-target association predictions.

[0005] At the same time, network-based methods have become increasingly popular in DTIs prediction due to their ability to effectively utilize biomedical heterogeneous networks (BioHNs), especially graph neural networks (GNNs), which aggregate neighborhood information through a message passing mechanism and show significant advantages in DTI prediction.

[0006] However, methods that rely on knowledge graphs or BioHNs usually treat DTI prediction as a binary classification or regression task, focusing mainly on memorizing the binding annotation ratios in the training data. This approach ignores the learning of molecular interaction features and limits the generalization ability to new data. In other words, GNNs-based methods have difficulty effectively predicting DTI in the absence of graph associations of unknown entities, and such methods are not suitable for new drug discovery.

[0007] Therefore, how to invent a method that can effectively predict DTI has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the invention

[0008] To this end, the present invention provides a drug-target interaction prediction method and device based on representation alignment space. The method provides multi-layer association knowledge by constructing a large-scale biomedical heterogeneous network, which is conducive to predicting DTI associations related to unknown drugs.

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] See also Figure 1 Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a method for predicting drug-target interactions based on characterizing an alignment space, comprising the following steps:

[0043] S1, initializing the protein representation dimension, drug representation dimension, common embedding representation dimension, multi-layer perceptron layer number and batch dimension parameters;

[0044] S2. Acquire a number of single-source network data through a number of pharmaceutical databases; perform comparison processing on the single-source network data to construct a biomedical heterogeneous network;

[0045] S3, integrating the protein target and drug representations obtained by the network representation strategy into a common embedding representation space according to a contrastive learning strategy; setting a model through DTI association training using the contrastive learning strategy;

[0046] S4. Inputting the protein target and several drug representations corresponding to the protein target into the trained setting model to perform DTI prediction, and obtaining several drugs most relevant to the protein target.

[0047] In this embodiment, in step S1, the protein representation dimension, drug representation dimension, common embedding representation dimension, the number of multi-layer perceptron layers and batch dimension parameters are initialized.

[0048] Specifically, the protein representation dimension dim p , drug characterization dimension dim d , the public embedding representation dimension dim, the number of multilayer perceptron layers l, the batch dimension n and other parameters are initialized.

[0049] In this embodiment, in step S2, in the process of acquiring the plurality of single-source network data through a plurality of pharmaceutical databases, the plurality of pharmaceutical databases include a drug database DrugBank, a therapeutic target database TTD, a pharmacogenomics database PharmGKB, a comprehensive drug database DrugCentral, and a drug repositioning database repoDB;

[0050] The single-source network data include drug-target interactions, drug-disease interactions, and drug-drug interactions.

[0051] Specifically, multiple single-source network data such as drug-target interaction, drug-disease interaction, and drug-drug interaction are obtained through the drug database DrugBank, the therapeutic target database TTD, the pharmacogenomics database PharmGKB, the comprehensive drug database DrugCentral, and the drug repositioning database repoDB.

[0052] In this embodiment, in step S2, it also includes removing non-compliant data and redundant data from the single-source network data according to set rules in the process of comparing and processing the single-source network data to construct the biomedical heterogeneous network, and constructing the biomedical heterogeneous network; taking drugs, diseases and targets in the biomedical heterogeneous network as nodes, and the interactions between entities as edges, and numbering the nodes in the biomedical heterogeneous network.

[0053] Specifically, all databases are compared, and according to the two rules that the target has a unique UniProt number and the target is marked as "reviewed", the non-compliant data and redundant data are removed to form a biomedical heterogeneous network. Drugs, diseases, and targets in the biomedical heterogeneous network are taken as nodes, and the interactions between entities are taken as edges. The nodes in the biomedical heterogeneous network are numbered: d represents the drug node; p represents the protein target node; di represents the disease node; where num d 、num p 、num di Represent the total number of drug, target, and disease nodes, respectively.

[0054] In this embodiment, in step S3, if Figure 2 As shown, in the process of integrating the protein target and drug representation obtained by the network representation strategy into the common embedding representation space according to the contrastive learning strategy, the drug and protein target are respectively mapped to independent representation spaces through the network representation strategy or the biological entity representation strategy; a multilayer perceptron is set as a projection module to map the drug representation and protein representation of the set dimension to the common embedding representation space of the same dimension.

[0055] Specifically, based on mature network representation methods or biological entity representation methods, drugs and protein targets are mapped to independent representation spaces respectively; a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) is deployed as a projection module to map the dim d The drug representation and dimension of dim p The protein representations are mapped to a common embedding representation space with the same dimension dim.

[0056] In this embodiment, in step S3, it also includes using the contrast learning strategy to train the set model through DTI association.

[0057] Specifically, the cos similarity is calculated as the distance matrix sim between the drug and the target in the representation space and its transposed sim T Represents the bidirectional distance matrix. Based on contrastive learning, the drug-target pairs that actually exist in the biomedical network are positive samples, and the rest are negative samples;

[0058] The labels are constructed in a weakly associated way. Each sample is regarded as an independent category, and its label directly corresponds to the index in the batch, that is, label = [0, 1, 2, ..., n-1]. The bidirectional cross entropy loss function is calculated to optimize the projection module parameters. The formula for calculating the bidirectional cross entropy loss function is:

[0059]

[0060] In the formula, n is the number of labels; and Respectively represent sim and sim T The probability of the label corresponding to the i-th row in .

[0061] In this embodiment, in step S4, the protein target and the representations of several drugs corresponding to the protein target are input into the trained setting model for DTI prediction to obtain several drugs most relevant to the protein target.

[0062] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the protein target and N drug representations are input into the trained setting model to predict the top k drugs related to the protein target; they are mapped to the common embedding representation space through the projection module, and the cos similarity between the protein target representation and the N drug representations is calculated to measure the degree of association; the drugs are sorted from large to small according to the degree of association, and the top k drugs are the k drugs predicted by the setting model to be associated with the protein target.

[0063] In summary, the present invention initializes the protein representation dimension, drug representation dimension, public embedding representation dimension, multilayer perceptron layer number and batch dimension parameters; obtains a number of single-source network data through a number of pharmaceutical databases; compares and processes a number of said single-source network data to construct a biomedical heterogeneous network; integrates the protein target and drug representation obtained by the network representation strategy into the public embedding representation space according to the contrastive learning strategy; uses the contrastive learning strategy to train the setting model through DTI association; inputs the protein target and a number of drug representations corresponding to the protein target into the trained setting model for DTI prediction, and obtains a number of drugs most relevant to the protein target. The present invention proposes an embedding representation alignment framework based on contrastive learning, constructs a public embedding representation space, and learns DTI association patterns extensively by learning sparse DTI labels in the network, and further expands to predict the relevant DTI of new drugs. A multilayer perceptron collaborative projection mapping module is adopted to generate a cross-dimensional public embedding representation space, thereby effectively unifying multi-source, multi-modal, heterogeneous network representations and entity representations. The present invention also proposes a weak label loss function label calculation method, which can reduce the overfitting learning of the remaining drug-target pairs, thereby improving generalization and being effectively applicable to new drugs. The present invention constructs a large-scale biomedical heterogeneous network for multi-source, heterogeneous biomedical data, including multiple biological entities and multiple entity associations, provides multi-layer association knowledge, contains more hidden biological meanings, and is conducive to predicting DTI associations related to unknown drugs; based on the idea of ​​contrastive learning, an embedded representation alignment framework is built, which can not only use high-quality representation methods to characterize biomedical networks and biological entities, but also use contrastive loss to solve the problem of sparse training data; the designed weak label calculation method does not explicitly specify the degree of association between the remaining drug-target pairs, while helping the model learn the actual associated drug-target pairs, it reduces the overfitting of the remaining drug-target pairs, thereby retaining the learning ability of one-to-many and many-to-many DTI.
