Abstract: The treatment of brain disorders is limited by the insufficiency in delivering therapeutic drugs into brain relating to highly limited transport of compounds through blood-brain barrier (BBB). Therefore, a lot of attempts have been made to rise above this problem using a variety of approaches. In this way, in silico techniques try to predict the brain permeability based on a range of physicochemical descriptors resulting from structures of the corresponding compounds. Most of the models have some disadvantages, which preclude making conclusive ...
