Structure insights of SARS-CoV-2 open state envelope protein and inhibiting through active phytochemical of ayurvedic medicinal plants from Withania somnifera

Raed Abdullah Alharbi

Summary: This study focuses on identifying potential antiviral herbs for COVID-19 infections by studying the SARS-CoV-2 E protein. Computational docking of phytochemicals with the virus's envelope protein suggests interaction with pore-lining residues, indicating potential inhibitory effects. The findings show promise for the use of these phytochemicals in managing SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Withanolide Derivative 2,3-Dihydro-3β-methoxy Withaferin-A Modulates the Circadian Clock via Interaction with RAR-Related Orphan Receptor α (RORa)

Tatsunosuke Tomita et al.

Summary: Withanolide derivatives, particularly 3 beta mWi-A, have been shown to lengthen the circadian clock, upregulate the expression of key genes involved in circadian rhythms, and act as an inverse agonist for RORa. These findings suggest that 3 beta mWi-A may serve as a novel modulator of circadian rhythms.

SILAC-based quantitative MS approach reveals Withaferin A regulated proteins in prostate cancer

Ramesh Kumar et al.

Summary: Withaferin A (WA), a steroidal lactone extracted from Withania somnifera, shows promising anti-cancer effects in prostate cancer (PCA) cells. Through SILAC-based quantitative proteomic approach, it was found that WA treatment induced changes in protein expression related to apoptosis and stress response in PCA cells. By enhancing oxidative stress and blocking stress granules, WA treatment offers a potential therapeutic strategy to reduce PCA cell survival and drug resistance.
