Drug Toxicity Signature Generation Center (DToxS) at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is an integral part of the NIH Library of Integrated Network-Based Cellular Signatures (LINCS) program. A key aim of DToxS is to generate both proteomic and transcriptomic signatures that cab predict adverse effects, especially cardiotoxicity, of drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Towards this goal, high throughput shot-gun proteomics experiments (308 cell line/drug combinations + 64 HeLa control lysates + 9 auxiliary treatment samples) have been conducted at the Center for Advanced Proteomics Research at Rutgers-New Jersey Medical School. The integrated proteomic and transcriptomic signatures have been used for computational network analysis to identify cellular signatures of cardiotoxicity that may predict drug-induced toxicity and possible mitigation of such toxicities by mixing different drugs. Both raw and processed proteomics data have been carefully controlled for quality and have been made publicly available via the PRoteomics IDEntifications (PRIDE) database. As such, this broad drug-stimulated proteomic dataset is valuable for the prediction drug toxicities and their mitigation.
