Mapping drug-target interactions and synergy in multi-molecular therapeutics for pressure-overload cardiac hypertrophy

Abstract Advancements in systems biology have resulted in the development of network pharmacology, leading to a paradigm shift from “one-target, one-drug” to “target-network, multi-component therapeutics”. We employ a chimeric approach involving in-vivo assays, gene expression analysis, cheminformat...
