Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) results from atherosclerosis that leads to
blocked arteries and reduced blood flow, most commonly in the arteries of the
legs. PAD clinical trials to induce angiogenesis to improve blood flow conducted
in the last decade have not succeeded. We have recently constructed PADPIN,
protein-protein interaction network (PIN) of PAD, and here we combine it with the
drug-target relations to identify potential drug targets for PAD. Specifically,
the proteins in the PADPIN were classified as belonging to the angiome, immunome,
and arteriome, characterizing the processes of angiogenesis, immune
response/inflammation, and arteriogenesis, respectively. Using the network-based
approach we predict the candidate drugs for repositioning that have potential
applications to PAD. By compiling the drug information in two drug databases
DrugBank and PharmGKB, we predict FDA-approved drugs whose targets are the
proteins annotated as anti-angiogenic and pro-inflammatory, respectively.
Examples of pro-angiogenic drugs are carvedilol and urokinase. Examples of
anti-inflammatory drugs are ACE inhibitors and maraviroc. This is the first
computational drug repositioning study for PAD.
