In silico screening, ADMET analysis and MD simulations of phytochemicals of Wall. as SARS CoV-2 inhibitors.

Being attracted with their cardiotonic, antidiabetic, cough relieving activity, treatment of fever, absorbent, anti-asthmatic, etc. activities reported in ancient Ayurvedic literature, phytochemicals of wall should be evaluated for their activity against SARS-CoV-2 virus. The main objective of this study is to identify a hit molecule for the inhibition of entry, replication, and protein synthesis of SARS CoV-2 virus into the host.

Prevalence of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 variants and the impact on clopidogrel efficacy in patients having CYPC19*2 variant.

Objective: Human cytochrome p450 enzymes play an important role in the metabolism of various substances. The CYP2C subfamily consists of various important drug-metabolizing enzymes such as CYP2C9 and CYP2C19. The objectives of the study include the determination of the frequency of genetic variants (CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3, and CYP2C19*2) of selected enzymes using allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (ASPCR) and its comparison with Indian as well as global past frequencies.

Computational Investigations of AntiViral Lignan Derivatives as Potent Inhibitors of SARS CoV-2.

Due to alarming outbreak of pandemic COVID-19 in recent times, there is a strong need to discover and identify new antiviral agents acting against SARS CoV-2. Among natural products, lignan derivatives have been found effective against several viral strains including SARS CoV-2. Total of twenty-seven reported antiviral lignan derivatives of plant origin have been selected for computational studies to identify the potent inhibitors of SARS CoV-2.

Systematic virtual screening in search of SARS CoV-2 inhibitors against spike glycoprotein: pharmacophore screening, molecular docking, ADMET analysis and MD simulations.

In the absence of efficient anti-viral medications, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), stemming from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS CoV-2), has spawned a worldwide catastrophe and global emergency. Amidst several anti-viral targets of COVID-19, spike glycoprotein has been recognized as an essential target for the viral entry into the host cell. In the search of effective SARS CoV-2 inhibitors acting against spike glycoprotein, the virtual screening of 175,851 ligands from the 2020.

In search of SARS CoV-2 replication inhibitors: Virtual screening, molecular dynamics simulations and ADMET analysis.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome has relapsed recently as novel coronavirus causing a life threat to the entire world in the absence of an effective therapy. To hamper the replication of the deadly SARS CoV-2 inside the host cells, systematic virtual screening of total 267,324 ligands from Asinex EliteSynergy and BioDesign libraries has been performed using AutoDock Vina against RdRp. The molecular modeling studies revealed the identification of twenty-one macrocyclic hits (-) with better binding energy than remdesivir (), marketed SARS CoV-2 inhibitor.

In search of RdRp and Mpro inhibitors against SARS CoV-2: Molecular docking, molecular dynamic simulations and ADMET analysis.

Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS CoV-2) has been declared a worldwide pandemic by WHO recently. The complete understanding of the complex genomic structure of SARS CoV-2 has enabled the use of computational tools in search of SARS CoV-2 inhibitors against the multiple proteins responsible for its entry and multiplication in human cells. With this endeavor, 177 natural, anti-viral chemical entities and their derivatives, selected through the critical analysis of the literatures, were studied using pharmacophore screening followed by molecular docking against RNA dependent RNA polymerase and main protease.
