Clinical effect of drug compounds
• Drug selectivity towards a single target is more often the
exception than the rule
• Many effective drugs act via modulation of multiple targets
• Some drugs may have yet unknown therapeutic
applications(drug repurposing)
• Many adverse drug reactions are due to activity towards
multiple targets

Drug repurposing
Sildenafil (a.k.a Viagra, Vitamin V, the Blue Pill, etc)
– Potent inhibitor of cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase
type 5 (PDE5), an enzyme that regulates blood flow
– Initially developed to treat pulmonary hypertension
(market name: Revatio)
– Sales account for 90% of the global market for erectile
dysfunction
– Recently discovered uses include alleviation of altitude
sickness and jetlag

Adverse Drug Reactions
• Cisapride: serotonin receptor agonist
– Relief of gastrointestinal symptoms
• Astemizole: histamin receptor antagonist
– Antihistamine
BOTH WITHDRAWN DUE TO INHIBITION OF THE
hERG CARDIAC ION CHANNEL

Adverse Drug Reactions
Many different studies demonstrate a link between
depression, schizophrenia and diabetes.
But what is the link?
Suspicions that antipsychotic drugs interfere with
pathways involved to insulin resistance

Summarizing…
 Network approaches allow researchers to
rapidly organize and extrapolate available
knowledge by integrating different types of
large datasets.
 Application of such methods in drug
research allow:
Systems level description of drug action
Explanation of side effects
Drug repurposing
Identification of novel drug targets and
therapeutic strategies
Prediction of effective drug combinations
26
Better understanding of complex
diseases
