Abstract Background Elucidating the modes of action (MoAs) of drugs and drug candidate compounds is critical for guiding translation from drug discovery to clinical application. Despite the development of several data-driven approaches for predicting chemical–disease associations, the molecular cues that organize the epigenetic landscape of drug responses remain poorly understood. Results With the use of a computational method, we attempted to elucidate the epigenetic landscape of drug responses, in terms of transcription factors (TFs), through large-scale ChIP-seq data analyses. In the algorithm, we systematically identified TFs that regulate the expression of chemically induced genes by integrating transcriptome data from chemical induction experiments and almost all publicly available ChIP-seq data (consisting of 13,558 experiments). By relating the resultant chemical–TF associations to a repository of associated proteins for a wide range of diseases, we made a comprehensive prediction of chemical–TF–disease associations, which could then be used to account for drug MoAs. Using this approach, we predicted that: (1) cisplatin promotes the anti-tumor activity of TP53 family members but suppresses the cancer-inducing function of MYCs; (2) inhibition of RELA and E2F1 is pivotal for leflunomide to exhibit antiproliferative activity; and (3) CHD8 mediates valproic acid-induced autism. Conclusions Our proposed approach has the potential to elucidate the MoAs for both approved drugs and candidate compounds from an epigenetic perspective, thereby revealing new therapeutic targets, and to guide the discovery of unexpected therapeutic effects, side effects, and novel targets and actions. |
