In this present work, 3D-QSAR, molecular docking and molecular dynamics(MD) simulations were implemented on a series of quinoline-based ALDH1A1 inhibitors to investigate novel acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 inhibitors as anticancer adjuvant drugs for ovarian cancer. Two reliable CoMFA(Q^(2) = 0.583, R^(2) = 0.967) and CoMSIA(Q^(2) = 0.640, R^(2) = 0.977) models of ALDH1A1 inhibitors were established. Novel ALDH1A1 inhibitors were predicted by the 3D-QSAR models. Molecular docking reveals important residues for protein-compound interactions, and the results revealed ALDH1A1 inhibitors had stronger electrostatic interaction and binding affinity with key residues of protein, such as Phe171, Val174 and Cys303. Molecular dynamics simulations further verified the results of molecular docking. The above information provided significant guidance for the design of novel ALDH1A1 inhibitors.展开更多
