Repurposing Approved Immunomodulatory Drugs for Target Proteins in the Pancreas of European eel: A Molecular Docking Approach
Abstract: Leishmaniasis is a disease caused by tiny parasites called Leishmania, which spread to humans through the bite of an infected female sand fly. The disease manifests in three different forms, and the protein calcitonin promotes the disease’s spread. By reducing blood calcium levels, inhibiting osteoclast activity, increasing calcium excretion, and possibly playing a role in neurotransmitter modulation, calcitonin, a hormone released by vertebrates, promotes the progression of pathogenesis and lessens …
