Drugs for Alzheimer’s Disease from Salix Alba Discovered Computationally Utilizing Virtual Screening and Docking against 1b41 Protein
Abstract: Objective : The of this research is to evaluate the feasibility of using molecular docking techniques to identify novel acetylcholinesterase, a key enzyme implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease, a neurodegenerative disorder with a gradual but steady progression to death, due to the gradual accumulation of beta-plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, as well as a decline in acetylcholine levels. Due to its function in converting acetylcholine into acyl and choline …

Network Pharmacological Studies in Biological Interactions of Thymoquinone
Abstract: Thymoquinone, a bioactive phytochemical compound belonging to the class of benzoquinones, is prominently present in the plant Nigella sativa. Despite its widespread use, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying its beneficial effects remain elusive. To address this gap, we employed network pharmacology to investigate the actions of Thymoquinone (TQ). Our methodology encompassed the utilization of diverse bioinformatic tools to scrutinize this molecule of interest comprehensively. Initially, we retrieved the chemical structure, …

Exploring Phytochemicals from Ricinus Communis for Potential Therapeutic Applications in Rheumatoid Arthritis: An in-Silico Approach
Abstract: Aim: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term autoimmune condition characterized by the immune system mistakenly attacking the joints, leading to swelling, discomfort, and joint deformities. Current management strategies include anti-rheumatic drugs and biologics, which have limitations. This study aims to explore the therapeutic potential of Ricinus communis (castor bean plant) phytochemicals as plant-based therapies for autoimmune conditions, like RA. Methods: Phytochemicals from Ricinus communis were retrieved using the IMPPAT database, …

A Structure-based Design Approach to Catharanthus roseus Phytoconstituents as Potential Inhibitors of B-Cell Lymphoma 6 Protein
Abstract: Objectives: Lymphoma is a cancerous disease. It develops into millions of people worldwide. Identify the naturally active compounds from Catharanthus roseus, they have multiple values in the medicinal field of Siddha, and Indian Ayurveda are used as a disease-preventing agent. Drug illness prediction, toxicity prediction, statistical information, molecular docking, as well as absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) analysis are used to predict the fit ligand as a drug. Methods: …

In silico analysis of Abrus precatorius L. as a potential agonist of PPARγ : A novel approach to the treatment of diabetes
Abstract: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disorder that is characterized by a lack of insulin secretion by the pancreas or a defect in insulin action, or both. If diabetes is not controlled, over time it can cause damage to blood vessels and nerves, leading to life-threatening complications such as, kidney damage, heart disease and vision impairment. It can also weaken the immune system, making patients more prone to infection. Although treatments …

In Silico Drug Designing of Breast Cancer in Homo sapiens
Abstract: Breast cancer is a severe health concern in India, with the highest mortality rate among women. It is brought on by uncontrolled cell division and has the potential to spread to other body regions. As a transcription factor, interactions with estrogen receptor (ER) alpha are primarily responsible for malignant tumors through regulating the transcription of numerous genes. Because most of the medications now used to treat breast cancer have significant …

Comprehensive In silico Analysis of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in Human BDNF Gene
Abstract: Since a number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with the BDNF gene mutations involved in different diseases. Hence, it is important to find out the probable functional SNPs before planning a larger population study. So, to look out for the functional nsSNPs (non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms) in BDNF gene, existing data present in the dbSNP database and different bioinformatics tools like SIFT, PolyPhen, nsSNPAnalyzer, F-SNP, I-mutant, Pymol were …
