Anthraquinone-fused enediynes (AFEs) are a class of microbial natural products with remarkable cytotoxicity and exhibit promising application prospects in tumor therapy. Taking tiancimycins (TNMs) as an example, this class of compounds holds great potential against triple-negative breast and liver cancers. However, the...
Drug development has long been constrained by high costs, lengthy timelines, and low success rates, primarily due to the insufficient human physiological fidelity of traditional preclinical models. Artificial intelligence (AI) has accelerated computational drug discovery, but its models inherit training-data bias and a...
