This study delves into the therapeutic efficacy of A. pyrethrum in addressing vitiligo, a chronic inflammatory disorder known for inducing psychological distress and elevating susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. Notably, JAK inhibitors have emerged as promising candidates for treating immune dermatoses, including vitiligo.

The efficacy of 40 synthesized variants of 3,5-diaryl-1H-pyrazole and spiropyrazoline' derivatives as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors is verified using a quantitative three-dimensional structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) by comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and molecular similarity index analysis (CoMSIA) models. In this research, different field models proved that CoMSIA/SE model is the best model with high predictive power compared to several models (Qved = O.65; R = 0.

COVID-19 pandemic caused by very severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) agent is an ongoing major global health concern. The disease has caused more than 452 million affected cases and more than 6 million death worldwide. Hence, there is an urgency to search for possible medications and drug treatments.

COVID-19 is a new infectious disease caused by SARS-COV-2 virus of the coronavirus Family. The identification of drugs against this serious infection is a significant requirement due to the rapid rise in the positive cases and deaths around the world. With this concept, a molecular docking analysis for vitamins and their derivatives (28 molecules) with the active site of SARS-CoV-2 main protease was carried out.

Covid-19 is an emerging infectious disease caused by coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Due to the rapid rise in deaths resulted from this infection all around the world, the identification of drugs against this new coronavirus is an important requirement. Among the drugs that can fight this type of infection; natural products are substances that serve as sources of beneficial chemical molecules for the development of effective therapies.

Because of the fast increase in deaths due to Corona Viral Infection in majority region in the world, the detection of drugs potent of this infection is a major need. With this idea, docking study was executed on eighteen imidazole derivatives based on 7-chloro-4-aminoquinoline against novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). In this study, we carried out a docking study of these molecules in the active site of SARS-CoV-2 main protease.

The identification of chemotherapeutic drugs against Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a significant requirement due to the rapid rise in deaths due to Corona Viral Infection all around the world. Therefore, it is of interest to document the molecular docking analysis data of 32 N-substituted Oseltamivir derivatives inhibitors of influenza virus H5N1 with the Novel Coronavirus main protease (2019-nCoV). We describe the optimal binding features of Oseltamivir derivatives with the SARS-Cov-2 main protease (Code PDB: 6LU7) for further consideration.

The objective of this work was the molecular modelling by bio-isostery of 2-chloroethylnitrosoureas CENU into 2-chloroethylnitrososulfamides CENS derived from Carmustine. We evaluated the pharmacodynamic profile of the new chemical class by studying molecular docking using innovative software. Good molecular docking scores were obtained through Auto-dock vina of the PyRx 0.

Liver cancer has become the third type of cancer that causes death; this is why the design of new chemotherapeutic drugs against this disease is a major need. With this idea, a series of Dehydroabietic Acid-Based Acylhydrazones have been used to generate a CoMFA model to design new anticancer agents. In this study, we employed a Comparative Molecular Field Analysis studies, we performed those methods on Dehydroabietic Acid-Based Acylhydrazones against HepG2 human cancer cell line.

In this study, we have selected a series of a new family of molecules bearing Triazolo-benzodiazepines, an eleven membered heterocyclic ring has been studied for antidepression activity. Docking studies suggested that all the eleven ligands interacted well within active site of Drosophila melanogaster dopamine transporter (dDAT) (PDB ID: 4M48). Most ligands formed H-bond with amino acid Phe43, Asp46, Asp475, Tyr123, Ser421 and/or Gln316 and also exhibited Pi and Pi-Pi interactions with amino acid residues Tyr124, Phe319, Phe43, Phe325, Ala479 and Val120.

Although the benefits of clozapine have been well demonstrated in resistant schizophrenia, the frequency of adverse events is of particular concern: up to 76% of patients to whom clozapine was prescribed experienced an adverse event, with a discontinuation rate of 17%. In addition to its major clinical side effect, agranulocytosis, clozapine is reported to induce inflammatory syndromes with polyserositis. Apart from sparse case reports, no study has yet addressed this particularly interesting issue.
