What Are the Challenges in Using ChEMBL for Toxicology?
Despite its benefits, there are challenges in using ChEMBL for toxicological studies:
The complexity of biological systems may result in incomplete data for certain compounds or targets. Interpreting the data requires a strong understanding of both chemistry and biology, which can be a barrier for some researchers. While ChEMBL is comprehensive, it is not exhaustive; some data may still need to be gathered from other sources.
