Developing highly potent covalent inhibitors of Fibroblast growth factor receptors 1 (FGFR1) has always been a challenging task. In the current study, various computational techniques, such as 3D-QSAR, covalent docking, fingerprinting analysis, MD simulation followed by MMGB/PBSA, and per-residue energy decomposition analysis were used to explore the binding mechanism of pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazinone derivatives to FGFR1. The high q2 and r2 values for the CoMFA and CoMSIA models, suggest that the constructed 3D-QSAR models could reliably predict the bioactivities of FGFR1 inhibitors.

Plants of the genus have notable use in folklore medicines as well as being used for pharmacological purposes. The present work explored the biological predispositions of and attempted to accomplish a comprehensive chemical profile through GC-MS of different fractions concerning polarity (chloroform and -butanol) and LC-ESI-MS of methanolic extract by both positive and negative ionization modes. The biological characteristics such as antioxidant potential were assessed by applying six different methods.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined the phytochemical composition and biological activities of L. extracts with different polarities, using techniques like HPLC and GC-MS to identify and quantify various phytochemicals.
  • The extracts demonstrated significant antioxidant properties, with the methanol extract showing the highest radical-scavenging activity, while the hexane fraction exhibited strong enzyme-inhibiting effects against xanthine oxidase and urease.
  • Additionally, all extracts displayed moderate antibacterial activity against seven bacterial strains, and molecular docking suggested specific interactions between certain phytochemicals and the target enzyme, xanthine oxidase.
