The innovative in silico technologies developed at SPILLOproject,1 e.g., the SPILLO potential binding sites searcher (SPILLO-PBSS) software,2,3 allow to identify targets and off-targets of any small molecule on a multiple-organism proteomewide scale, and to perform an accurate multilevel cross-organism transferability analysis (MCOTA) aimed at rationalising animal testing. SPILLO-PBSS has been successfully used in several research projects, such as a study in which a compound (MV1035) was found to reduce migration and invasiveness in U87 glioblastoma (GBM) cell lines: the human structural proteome was analyzed and the RNA demethylase ALKBH5 has been identified as a target responsible for the observed effects (target experimentally validated). Another top-ranked target identified by SPILLO-PBSS, the DNA repair protein AlkB homolog 2 (ALKBH2), abundantly expressed in GBM cell lines, resulted particularly interesting for its pivotal role in the onset of resistance to Temozolomide (TMZ), the standard firstline treatment for GBM.2
