The inhibition of abnormal amyloid β (Aβ) aggregation has been regarded as a good target to control Alzheimer’s disease. The present study adopted 2D-QSAR, HQSAR and 3D QSAR (CoMFA & CoMSIA) modeling approaches to identify the structural and physicochemical requirements for the potential Aβ aggregation inhibition. A structure-based molecular docking technique is utilized to approve the features th...... hiện toàn bộ

The widespread of coronavirus (COVID-19) is a new global health crisis that poses a threat to the world. The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) originated in bats and was discovered first in Wuhan, Hubei province, China in December 2019. Immunoinformatics and bioinformatics tools were employed for the construction of a multi-epitope subunit vaccine to prevent the diseases...... hiện toàn bộ
In silico bioprospecting of receptors for Doderlin: an antimicrobial peptide isolated from Lactobacillus acidophilusIn Silico Pharmacology - Tập 11 - Trang 1-11 - 2023
Elias Jorge Muniz Seif, Marcelo Yudi Icimoto, Pedro Ismael da Silva Junior
The emergence of resistant bacteria strains against traditional antibiotics and treatments increases each year. Doderlin is a cationic and amphiphilic peptide active against gram-positive, negative and yeast stains. The aim of the present work was prospect potentials receptors associated of antimicrobial activity of Doderlin using in silico bioinformatics tools. To search for potential targets of ...... hiện toàn bộ
A molecular docking study of phytochemical estrogen mimics from dietary herbal supplementsIn Silico Pharmacology - Tập 3 - Trang 1-63 - 2015
Chelsea N Powers, William N Setzer
The purpose of this study is to use a molecular docking approach to identify potential estrogen mimics or anti-estrogens in phytochemicals found in popular dietary herbal supplements. In this study, 568 phytochemicals found in 17 of the most popular herbal supplements sold in the United States were built and docked with two isoforms of the estrogen receptor, ERα and ERβ (a total of 27 different pr...... hiện toàn bộ
Characterisation of a novel crustin isoform from mud crab, Scylla serrata (Forsskål, 1775) and its functional analysis in silicoIn Silico Pharmacology - - 2022

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteria pose significant challenges to the public health. Various factors are involved in the development and spread of MDR strains, including the overuse and misuse of antibiotics, the lack of new antibiotics being developed, and etc. Efflux pump is one of the most important factors in the emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Aiming at the intro...... hiện toàn bộ
Molecular docking studies on InhA, MabA and PanK enzymes from Mycobacterium tuberculosis of ellagic acid derivatives from Ludwigia adscendens and Trewia nudifloraIn Silico Pharmacology - Tập 3 - Trang 1-7 - 2015
Jamil A. Shilpi, Mohammad Tuhin Ali, Sanjib Saha, Shihab Hasan, Alexander I. Gray, Véronique Seidel
There is an urgent need to discover and develop new drugs to combat Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB) in humans. In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in the discovery of new anti-TB agents from natural sources. In the present investigation, molecular docking studies were carried out on two ellagic acid derivatives, namely pteleoellagic acid (1) isol...... hiện toàn bộ
Pharmacophore based virtual screening of cholinesterase inhibitors: search of new potential drug candidates as antialzheimer agentsIn Silico Pharmacology - Tập 10 - Trang 1-14 - 2022

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a distinctive medical condition characterized by loss of memory, orientation, and cognitive impairments, which is an exceptionally universal form of neurodegenerative disease. The statistical data suggested that it is the 3rd major cause of death in older persons. Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors play a vital role in the treatment ...... hiện toàn bộ
