Abstract

Abstract: Motivation: Drug–drug interactions (DDIs) occur during the combination of drugs. Identifying potential DDI helps us to study the mechanism behind the combination medication or adverse reactions so as to avoid the side effects. Although many artificial intelligence methods predict and mine potential DDI, they ignore the 3D structure information of drug molecules and do not fully consider the contribution of molecular substructure in DDI. Results: We proposed a new deep learning architecture, 3DGT-DDI, a model composed of a 3D graph neural network and pre-trained text attention mechanism. We used 3D molecular graph structure and position information to enhance the prediction ability of the model for DDI, which enabled us to deeply explore the effect of drug substructure on DDI relationship. The results showed that 3DGT-DDI outperforms other state-of-the-art baselines. It achieved an 84.48% macro F1 score in the DDIExtraction 2013 shared task dataset. Also, our 3D graph model proves its performance and explainability through weight visualization on the DrugBank dataset. 3DGT-DDI can help us better understand and identify potential DDI, thereby helping to avoid the side effects of drug mixing.
