Targeting IKZF1 via HDAC1: Combating Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) accounts for 1.3% of all cancers, with a limited survival of only 30%, and treating AML is a continuous challenge in medicine. IKZF1 is a DNA-binding protein that is highly mutated and undruggable but significant in causing AML.

Transcriptomic, mutational and structural bioinformatics approaches to explore the therapeutic role of FAP in predominant cancer types.

Fibroblast activating protein (FAP) is a cell surface marker of cancer-associated fibroblasts with a distinct pro-tumorigenic role. The present study analyzed the pan-cancer expression; and clinical and mutational profiles of the FAP coding gene. Molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) deciphered the backbone dynamics and energetics of FAP.

A Comprehensive Review of Antimicrobial Agents Against Clinically Important Bacterial Pathogens: Prospects for Phytochemicals.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) hinders the effective treatment of a range of bacterial infections, posing a serious threat to public health globally, as it challenges the currently available antimicrobial drugs. Among the various modes of antimicrobial action, antimicrobial agents that act on membranes have the most promising efficacy. However, there are no consolidated reports on the shortcomings of these drugs, existing challenges, or the potential applications of phytochemicals that act on membranes.

Marine Compound-Carpatamide D as a Potential Inhibitor Against TOP2A and Its Mutant D1021Y in Colorectal Cancer: Insights from DFT, MEP and Molecular Dynamics Simulation.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the third most prevalent cancer globally, hence there is an urgent need for new and effective therapeutic options. DNA topoisomerase 2A (TOP2A) plays a crucial role in the cell cycle and is involved in CRC progression, making it essential to identify structural and functional relevant alterations. Among the 24 mutations, our findings indicated that mutation D1021Y has the most deleterious effect on the TOP2A protein.
