Explore the Potential with AI-Driven Innovation
The focused library is created on demand with the latest virtual screening and parameter assessment technology, supported by the Receptor.AI drug discovery platform. This method is more effective than traditional methods and results in higher-quality compounds with better activity, selectivity, and safety.
The compounds are cherry-picked from the vast virtual chemical space of over 60B molecules. The synthesis and delivery of compounds is facilitated by our partner Reaxense.
Contained in the library are leading modulators, each labelled with 38 ADME-Tox and 32 physicochemical and drug-likeness qualities. In addition, each compound is illustrated with its optimal docking poses, affinity scores, and activity scores, giving a complete picture.
Our top-notch dedicated system is used to design specialised libraries.

Our methodology leverages molecular simulations to examine a vast array of proteins, capturing their dynamics in both isolated forms and in complexes with other proteins. Through ensemble virtual screening, we thoroughly account for the protein's conformational mobility, identifying critical binding sites within functional regions and distant allosteric locations. This detailed exploration ensures that we comprehensively assess every possible mechanism of action, with the objective of identifying novel therapeutic targets and lead compounds that span a wide spectrum of biological functions.

Background:
Placenta growth factor (PlGF) is a pivotal molecule in angiogenesis and endothelial cell dynamics, promoting their proliferation and migration. It specifically interacts with the FLT1/VEGFR-1 receptor, and in its isoform PlGF-2, it also binds to NRP1/neuropilin-1 and NRP2/neuropilin-2 in a heparin-dependent manner. Furthermore, PlGF is known to facilitate tumor growth by enhancing cell proliferation.
Therapeutic significance:
Understanding the role of Placenta growth factor could open doors to potential therapeutic strategies. Its involvement in angiogenesis and cell proliferation makes it a promising target for developing treatments aimed at regulating blood vessel growth in diseases and inhibiting tumor progression.
