In Silico Identification of a Potential TNF-Alpha Binder Using a Structural Similarity: A Potential Drug Repurposing Approach to the Management of Alzheimer's Disease.

Introduction: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with no conclusive remedy. , found in , may reduce brain inflammation by targeting tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF), implicated in AD pathogenesis. Metoserpate, a synthetic compound, may inhibit TNF.

Nucleoside Analogues Are Potent Inducers of Pol V-mediated Mutagenesis.

Drugs targeting DNA and RNA in mammalian cells or viruses can also affect bacteria present in the host and thereby induce the bacterial SOS system. This has the potential to increase mutagenesis and the development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Here, we have examined nucleoside analogues (NAs) commonly used in anti-viral and anti-cancer therapies for potential effects on mutagenesis in , using the rifampicin mutagenicity assay.
