摘要：Understanding the general principles governing the functioning of biological networks is a major challenge of the current era. Functionality of biological networks can be observed from drug and target interaction perspective. All possible modes of operations of biological networks are confined by the interaction analysis. Several of the existing approaches in this direction, however, are data-driven and thus lack potential to be generalized and extrapolated to different species. In this paper, we demonstrate a systems pharmacology pipeline and discuss how the network theory, along with gene ontology (GO) analysis, co-expression analysis, module re-construction, pathway mapping and structure level analysis can be used to decipher important properties of biological networks with the aim to propose lead molecule for the therapeutic interventions of various diseases.
