Ligand-Based Virtual Screening and Molecular Docking of Benzimidazoles as Potential Inhibitors of Triosephosphate Isomerase Identified New Trypanocidal Agents

Lenci K. Vazquez-Jimenez et al.

Summary: In this study, a ligand-based virtual screening was performed to identify potential TcTIM inhibitors. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation analysis showed a favorable docking score of the BP5 compound on TcTIM, and a lower docking score on human TIM compared to the control ligand. Both BP2 and BP5 compounds exhibited good physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties as new anti-T. cruzi agents.

Onosma bracteata Wall. induces G0/G1 arrest and apoptosis in MG-63 human osteosarcoma cells via ROS generation and AKT/GSK3β/cyclin E pathway

Ajay Kumar et al.

Summary: The study found that the Obea fraction extracted from O. bracteata exhibits strong antioxidant properties and cytotoxicity, showing significant antiproliferative activity against human osteosarcoma MG-63, human neuroblastoma IMR-32, and human lung cancer A549 cell lines. Antioxidant and cytotoxic potential were attributed to the presence of catechin, kaempferol, onosmin A, and epicatechin in the Obea fraction.

The MTT Assay: Utility, Limitations, Pitfalls, and Interpretation in Bulk and Single-Cell Analysis

Mahshid Ghasemi et al.

Summary: The MTT assay is commonly used in studies of cell toxicity, but it is often misinterpreted. Our research found that the assay measurements are influenced by various factors and require optimization and rational interpretation of the data to avoid misleading conclusions. While the assay can be a powerful tool, it also has limitations.

Development of on-demand thermo-responsive hydrogels for anti-cancer drugs sustained release: Rational design, in silico prediction and in vitro validation in colon cancer models

Gustavo Carreno et al.

Summary: A rational design approach based on Statistical Design of the Experiments (DoE) and Molecular Dynamics Simulations Studies allows the prediction and understanding of thermo-responsive hydrogels, leading to the development of ideal hydrogel formulations for local sustained release of anticancer drugs. The formulation composed of NIPAM and 4-penten-1-ol crosslinked with poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) (PNiPenPH) presents a slow release of anticancer drug, demonstrating ideal properties for local sustained drug release applications.

Virtual Screening for Potential Phytobioactives as Therapeutic Leads to Inhibit NQO1 for Selective Anticancer Therapy

Bhargav Shreevatsa et al.

Summary: NQO1 is a multifunctional antioxidant enzyme with both tumor suppression and promotion properties. In this study, the flavone compound Orientin demonstrated a better binding affinity and favorable ADME properties compared to the standard inhibitor Dicumarol in targeting NQO1. Computational simulations showed that Orientin induces a potential conformational change in the substrate-binding site of NQO1, inhibiting substrate accessibility towards the FAD-binding domain. Our findings offer a promising direction for the development of new therapeutic components targeting NQO1.
