RESUMO
The global prevalence of obesity-related systemic disorders, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and cancers are rapidly rising. Several of these disorders involve peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) as one of the key cell signaling pathways. PPARs are nuclear receptors that play a central role in lipid metabolism and glucose homeostasis. They can activate or suppress the genes responsible for inflammation, adipogenesis, and energy balance, making them promising therapeutic targets for treating metabolic disorders. In this study, an attempt has been made to screen novel PPAR pan-agonists from the ZINC database targeting the three PPAR family of receptors (α, γ, ß/δ), using molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The top scoring five ligands with strong binding affinity against all the three PPAR isoforms were eprosartan, canagliflozin, pralatrexate, sacubitril, olaparib. The ADMET analysis was performed to assess the pharmacokinetic profile of the top 5 molecules. On the basis of ADMET analysis, the top ligand was subjected to MD simulations, and compared with lanifibranor (reference PPAR pan-agonist). Comparatively, the top-scoring ligand showed better protein-ligand complex (PLC) stability with all the PPARs (α, γ, ß/δ). When experimentally tested in in vitro cell culture model of NAFLD, eprosartan showed dose dependent decrease in lipid accumulation and oxidative damage. These outcomes suggest potential PPAR pan-agonist molecules for further experimental validation and pharmacological development, towards treatment of PPAR-mediated metabolic disorders.

Coronaviruses (CoVs) are a large group of enveloped positive sense single-stranded RNA viruses that can cause disease to humans. These are zoonotic having potential to cause large-scale outbreaks of infections widely causing morbidity and mortality. Papain-Like Protease (PLpro) is a cysteine protease, essential for viral replication and proliferation, as a highly conserved enzyme it cleaves peptide linkage between Nsp1, Nsp2, Nsp3, and Nsp4. As a valid therapeutic target, it stops viral reproduction and boosts host immune response thereby halting further spread of infection. In the purpose of identifying inhibitors targeting Papain-Like Proteases (PLpro) we initiated a high throughput virtual screening (HTVS) protocol using a SuperNatural Database. The XP docking results revealed that two compounds SN00334175 and SN00162745 exhibited docking scores of -10.58 kcal/mol and -9.93 kcal/mol respectively. The Further PRIME MMGB-SA studies revealed Van der Waal energy and hydrophobic energy terms as major contributors for total binding free energy. The 100 ns molecular dynamics simulation of SN00334175/7JN2 and SN00162745/7JN2 revealed that these complexes were stabilized with ligand binding forming interactions with Gly266, Asn267, Tyr268, Tyr273, Thr301 and Asp302, Lys157, Leu162, Asp164, Arg166, Glu167, Pro248 and Tyr264.
RESUMO
COVID-19 caused by the novel SARS-CoV-2 has been declared a pandemic by the WHO is causing havoc across the entire world. As of May end, about 6 million people have been affected, and 367 166 have died from COVID-19. Recent studies suggest that the SARS-CoV-2 genome shares about 80% similarity with the SARS-CoV-1 while their protein RNA dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) shares 96% sequence similarity. Remdesivir, an RdRp inhibitor, exhibited potent activity against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro. 3-Chymotrypsin like protease (also known as Mpro) and papain-like protease, have emerged as the potential therapeutic targets for drug discovery against coronaviruses owing to their crucial role in viral entry and host-cell invasion. Crystal structures of therapeutically important SARS-CoV-2 target proteins, namely, RdRp, Mpro, endoribonuclease Nsp15/NendoU and receptor binding domain of CoV-2 spike protein has been resolved, which have facilitated the structure-based design and discovery of new inhibitors. Furthermore, studies have indicated that the spike proteins of SARS-CoV-2 use the Angiotensin Converting Enzyme-2 (ACE-2) receptor for its attachment similar to SARS-CoV-1, which is followed by priming of spike protein by Transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2) which can be targeted by a proven inhibitor of TMPRSS2, camostat. The current treatment strategy includes repurposing of existing drugs that were found to be effective against other RNA viruses like SARS, MERS, and Ebola. This review presents a critical analysis of druggable targets of SARS CoV-2, new drug discovery, development, and treatment opportunities for COVID-19.

Synthesized compounds were evaluated for in vitro anti-tubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain and two clinical isolates Spec. 210 and Spec. 192. The titled compounds exhibited minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranging from 30.35 to 252.00 µM. Among the tested compounds, 8e, 8 l, 9c and 9d exhibited moderate activity (MIC = 47.6 - 52.0 µM) and 8a exhibited significant anti-tubercular activity (MIC = 30.35 µM). Furthermore, 8e, 8 l, and 9d were found to be less toxic against human embryonic kidney, HEK 293 cell lines. Finally, a docking study was also performed using MTB DNA Gyrase (PDB ID: 5BS8) for the significantly active compound 8a to know the exact binding pattern within the active site of the target enzyme.

Leishmaniasis is a complex neglected tropical disease caused by various leishmanial parasites that primarily affect the world's poorest people. A limited number of standard medications are available for this disease that has been used for several decades, which have drawbacks such as resistance, higher cost, and patient compliance, making it difficult to reach the poor. The search for novel chemical entities to treat leishmaniasis has led to target-based scaffold research. Thiochromone moieties in conjugation with aromatic amino acids have been considered for the study, along with possible substitutions of the electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups. N-myristoyl transferase (NMT) has been selected as the molecular target for the study responsible for protein-protein interaction and ribosylation of proteins necessary for the growth inside the human body of the parasite. The designed novel thiochromone analogs were docked against the selected leishmanial NMT using thein-silico methods, physicochemical and toxicity properties were predicted, and Structure-Activity Relationship was also established in-silico. Finally, a molecular dynamics simulation study for 100 ns gave an idea about the stability of the protein-ligand complex. A time frame analysis of each 10 ns confirmation was also studied to understand better the putative binding pattern designed analogs.

Obesity is an abnormal fat accumulation disorder in the metabolic syndrome constellation, and a risk factor for diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and cancer. Nuclear receptors (Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor, PPAR) are implicated in metabolic syndrome and NAFLD, and have potential for therapeutic targeting. Nuclear receptors are ligand-dependent transcription factors that have diverse roles in metabolism, including regulating genes involved in lipid and glucose metabolism, modulating inflammatory genes, and are crucial for maintaining metabolic flexibility. PPAR activates adipose triglyceride lipase, which then releases fatty acids as ligands for PPAR, indicating the interdependency of nuclear receptors and lipases. Here, molecular docking was performed with selected phytochemical ligands that can bind with PPAR-α/γ (PDB ID: 2ZNN and 2ATH, respectively) using Glide module of Schrodinger software followed by molecular dynamics simulation study using Desmond module, and ADMET analysis. Interestingly, orlistat which is a well-known lipase and fatty acid synthase inhibitor also demonstrated favorable binding affinity with both PPAR-α/γ (-10.96 kcal/mol against PPARα and -10.26 kcal/mol against PPARγ). The highest docking scores were however shown by the flavonoids - rutin (-14.88 kcal/mol against PPARα and -13.64 kcal/mol against PPARγ), and its aglycone, quercetin (-10.08 kcal/mol in PPARα and -9.89 kcal/mol in PPARγ). The other phytochemicals (genistein, esculin, daidzin, naringenin, daidzein, dihydroxy coumarin, hydroquinone) showed lower binding affinity as dual agonists. The anti-obesity effects were experimentally validated in cultured adipocytes, which revealed better lipid inhibition by rutin and quercetin than orlistat (quercetin > rutin > orlistat) pointing to their strong potential in anti-obesity treatment.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that can cause acute and severe infections. Increasing resistance to antibiotics has given rise to the urgent need for an alternative antimicrobial agent. A promising strategy is the inhibition of iron sequestration in the bacteria. The current work aimed to screen for inhibitors of pyoverdine-mediated iron sequestration in P. aeruginosa. As a drug target, we choose l-ornithine-N5-monooxygenase (PvdA), an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of pyoverdine that catalyzes the FAD-dependent hydroxylation of the side chain amine of ornithine. As drug repurposing is a fast and cost-efficient way of discovering new applications for known drugs, the approach may help to solve emerging clinical problems. In this study, we use data about molecules from drug banks for screening. A total of 15 drugs that are similar in structure to l-ornithine, the substrate of PvdA, and 30 drugs that are sub-structures of l-ornithine were virtually docked against PvdA. N-2-succinyl ornithine and cilazapril were found to be the top binders with a binding energy of -12.8 and -9.1 kcal mol-1, respectively. As the drug-likeness and ADME properties of the drugs were also found to be promising, molecular dynamics studies were performed to further confirm the stability of the complexes. The results of this in silico study indicate that N-2-succinyl ornithine could potentially be explored as a drug for the treatment of P. aeruginosa infections.

COVID-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) primarily appeared in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. At present, no proper therapy and vaccinations are available for the disease, and it is increasing day by day with a high mortality rate. Pharmacophore based virtual screening of the selected natural product databases followed by Glide molecular docking and dynamics studies against SARS-CoV-2 main protease was investigated to identify potential ligands that may act as inhibitors. The molecules SN00293542 and SN00382835 revealed the highest docking score of -14.57 and -12.42 kcal/mol, respectively, when compared with the co-crystal ligands of PDB-6Y2F (O6K) and 6W63 (X77) of the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro. To further validate the interactions of top scored molecules SN00293542 and SN00382835, molecular dynamics study of 100 ns was carried out. This indicated that the protein-ligand complex was stable throughout the simulation period, and minimal backbone fluctuations have ensued in the system. Post-MM-GBSA analysis of molecular dynamics data showed free binding energy-71.7004 +/- 7.98, -56.81+/- 7.54 kcal/mol, respectively. The computational study identified several ligands that may act as potential inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro. The top-ranked molecules SN00293542, and SN00382835 occupied the active site of the target, the main protease like that of the co-crystal ligand. These molecules may emerge as a promising ligands against SARS-CoV-2 and thus needs further detailed investigations. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic, devastating neurodegenerative disorder marked by the death of dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain's substantia nigra pars compacta (Snpc). In alpha-synuclein (α-Syn) self-aggregation, the existence of intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies called Lewy bodies (LBs) and Lewy neurites (LNs) causes PD, which is a cause of neuronal death. Methods: The present study is aimed at finding potential bioactive compounds from Cynodon dectylon that can degrade α-Syn aggregation in the brain, through in silico molecular docking investigations. Graph theoretical network analysis was used to identify the bioactive compounds that target α-Syn and decipher their network as a graph. From the data repository, twenty-nine bioactive chemicals from C. dactylon were chosen and their structures were retrieved from Pubchem. On the basis of their docking scores and binding energies, significant compounds were chosen for future investigation. The in silico prediction of chosen compounds, and their pharmacokinetic and physicochemical parameters were utilized to confirm their drug-likeness profile. Results: During molecular docking investigation the bioactive compounds vitexin (-7.3 kcal.mol-1) and homoorientin (-7.1 kcal.mol-1) showed significant binding energy against the α-Syn target protein. A computer investigation of molecular dynamics simulation study verifies the stability of the α-Syn-ligand complex. The intermolecular interactions assessed by the dynamic conditions indicate that the bioactive compound vitexin has the potency to prevent α-Syn aggregation. Conclusion: Interestingly, the observed results indicate that vitexin is a potential lead compound against α-Syn aggregation, and in vitro and in vivo studies are warranted to confirm the promising therapeutic capability.
RESUMO
In the search for new anti-mycobacterial agents, we revealed the importance of imidazo-[2,1-b]-thiazole and benzo-[d]-imidazo-[2,1-b]-thiazole carboxamide derivatives. We designed, in silico ADMET predicted and synthesized four series of novel imidazo-[2,1-b]-thiazole and benzo-[d]-imidazo-[2,1-b]-thiazole carboxamide analogues in combination with piperazine and various 1,2,3 triazoles. All the synthesized derivatives were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HPLC and MS spectral analysis and evaluated for in vitro antitubercular activity. The most active benzo-[d]-imidazo-[2,1-b]-thiazole derivative IT10, carrying a 4-nitro phenyl moiety, displayed IC90 of 7.05 µM and IC50 of 2.32 µM against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) H37Ra, while no acute cellular toxicity was observed (>128 µM) towards the MRC-5 lung fibroblast cell line. Another benzo-[d]-imidazo-[2,1-b]-thiazole compound, IT06, which possesses a 2,4-dichloro phenyl moiety, also showed significant activity with IC50 2.03 µM and IC90 15.22 µM against the tested strain of Mtb. Furthermore, the selected hits showed no activity towards a panel of non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), thus suggesting a selective inhibition of Mtb by the tested imidazo-[2,1-b]-thiazole derivatives over the selected panel of NTM. Molecular docking and dynamics studies were also carried out for the most active compounds IT06 and IT10 in order to understand the putative binding pattern, as well as stability of the protein-ligand complex, against the selected target Pantothenate synthetase of Mtb.

Twenty-eight novel 1,2,3-triazole analogues of imidazo-[1,2-a]-pyridine-3-carboxamide were designed and synthesized based on hybridization approach. The structure of the final compounds are characterized using 1HNMR, 13CNMR, LCMS and elemental analyses and are screened in vitro for anti-tubercular activity using low-oxygen recovery assay (LORA) non-replicating and using microplate alamar blue assay (MABA) against replicating M. tuberculosis. MIC was determined. From the obtained results, it was observed that, among (2,7-dimethylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)(4-((1-subtituted phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)methanones and (6-chloro-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)(4-((1-substituted phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)methanones, compounds with substitution at para position with electron electron releasing groups exhibited the best activity (< 34⯵g/mL). Amidst, (2,7-dimethylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)(4-(2-(4-alkyl/substituted aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)ethyl)piperazin-1-yl)methanones and (6-chloro-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)(4-(2-(4- alkyl/substituted aryl -1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)ethyl)piperazin-1-yl)methanones, compounds with long alkyl chain or cyclo propyl group were most active (< 21⯵g/mL) in MABA method against the tested strain of MTB. Compound 10b emerged to be the most active compound in MABA and LORA with MIC values 13.74 and 24.63⯵g/mL respectively. In-silico ADMET parameters were also predicted for the significantly active compound. Finally, molecular docking study was carried out to predict the feasible binding pattern of the most active compound at the active site of enoyl acyl carrier protein reductase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (PDB-4TZK) using Glide module of Schrodinger software.
