Machine learning and molecular docking prediction of potential inhibitors against dengue virus.

Introduction: Dengue Fever continues to pose a global threat due to the widespread distribution of its vector mosquitoes, and . While the WHO-approved vaccine, Dengvaxia, and antiviral treatments like Balapiravir and Celgosivir are available, challenges such as drug resistance, reduced efficacy, and high treatment costs persist. This study aims to identify novel potential inhibitors of the Dengue virus (DENV) using an integrative drug discovery approach encompassing machine learning and molecular docking techniques.

Edaravone N-benzyl pyridinium derivatives: BACE-1 inhibition, kinetics and in silico binding pose determination.

BACE-1 plays a pivotal role in the production of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides, implicated in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) pathology. We previously described edaravone N-benzyl pyridinium derivatives (EBPDs) that exhibited multifunctional activity against multiple AD targets. In this study we explored the EBPDs BACE-1 inhibitory activity to potentially enhance the compounds therapeutic profile.

Weak Noncovalent Interactions in Three Closely Related Adamantane-Linked 1,2,4-Triazole -Mannich Bases: Insights from Energy Frameworks, Hirshfeld Surface Analysis, 11β-HSD1 Molecular Docking and ADMET Prediction.

Structural analysis and docking studies of three adamantane-linked 1,2,4-triazole -Mannich bases (-) are presented. Compounds , and crystallized in the monoclinic 2/, 2 and 2/ space groups, respectively. Crystal packing of was stabilized by intermolecular C-H⋯O interactions, whereas compounds and were stabilized through intermolecular C-H⋯N, C-H⋯S and C-H⋯π interactions.

Structural Insights and Docking Analysis of Adamantane-Linked 1,2,4-Triazole Derivatives as Potential 11β-HSD1 Inhibitors.

The solid-state structural analysis and docking studies of three adamantane-linked 1,2,4-triazole derivatives are presented. Crystal structure analyses revealed that compound crystallizes in the triclinic -1 space group, while compounds and crystallize in the same monoclinic 2/ space group. Since the only difference between them is the substitution on the aryl group, the electronic nature of these NO and halogen groups seems to have no influence over the formation of the solid.

Design, synthesis, and evaluation of 3,7-substituted coumarin derivatives as multifunctional Alzheimer's disease agents.

Multitarget directed ligands (MTDLs) are emerging as promising treatment options for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Coumarin derivatives serve as a good starting point for designing MTDLs due to their inherent inhibition of monoamine oxidase (MAO) and cholinesterase enzymes, which are complicit in AD's complex pathophysiology. A preliminary series of 3,7-substituted coumarin derivatives were synthesised and evaluated for enzyme inhibitory activity, cytotoxicity as well as neuroprotective ability.
