HMG - CoA reductase inhibition mediated hypocholesterolemic potential of myricetin and quercetin: in-silico and in-vivo studies

Priyanka Riyad et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the inhibitory potential of myricetin on HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR). In-silico investigations were conducted, including molecular docking, druggability assessment, and molecular dynamics simulation. The results showed significant interaction capabilities of myricetin with HMGCR, as indicated by binding energy data and various molecular dynamics parameters. In-vivo examinations using a hypercholesterolemic rabbit animal model further confirmed the efficacy of myricetin in improving lipid profile, dyslipidemia indices, and reducing oxidative stress. This study concludes that myricetin is a potent flavanol with significant potential for HMGCR inhibition and antioxidant activity.

Molecular dynamic study of SARS-CoV-2 with various S protein mutations and their effect on thermodynamic properties

Mohnad Abdalla et al.

Summary: Studying the structure of SARS-CoV-2 S protein is crucial for understanding infection process and drug/vaccine resistance. Molecular dynamic simulation reveals fluctuations and changes in protein conformation, particularly in the region of amino acids 300 to 600. The Brazil variant shows higher fluctuations and unstable folding at certain stages.

Lipid Lowering Therapy: An Era Beyond Statins

Toufik Abdul-Rahman et al.

Summary: Dyslipidemia, particularly elevated LDL cholesterol levels, is a leading cause of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. While statins have been the main therapy, they have side effects. Non-statin lipid-lowering therapies and emerging gene-based therapies are showing promise in managing dyslipidemia.

Screening of phytochemical compounds ofTinospora cordifoliafor their inhibitory activity on SARS-CoV-2: anin silicostudy

S. Krupanidhi et al.

Summary: The study investigated the phytochemical constituents of Tinospora cordifolia targeting the main protease of SARS-CoV-2, identifying tinosponone as a potent inhibitor with excellent binding affinity. Molecular dynamics simulations confirmed the stability of the tinosponone and 3CL pro complex, suggesting its potential as a drug candidate for SARS-CoV-2.

Bishajit Sarkar et al.

Summary: This study analyzed 50 potential anti-AChE phytochemicals using bioinformatics and in silico biology tools, and predicted that bellidifolin, naringenin, apigenin, and coptisine were the 4 best compounds with similar and effective performance. Further in vivo and in vitro analyses are needed to confirm the outcomes of this research.
