AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The designed and synthesized 2-(4-methoxyphenyl) ethyl] acetamide derivatives (3a, 3b and 3c) were evaluated for their PTP1B inhibitory activity where they showed IC(50) values 69 microM, 87 microM and 71 microM, respectively. These results correlated well with the docking studies and in vivo screening of the compounds for their antidiabetic activity in SLM and STZ models.

Background: Breast cancer is a frequently diagnosed malignant disease and the primary cause of mortality among women with cancer worldwide. The therapy options are influenced by the molecular subtype due to the intricate nature of the condition, which consists of various subtypes. By focusing on the activation of receptors, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase can be utilized as an effective drug target for therapeutic purposes of breast cancer.

Artemisinin-based treatments (ACTs) are the first therapy currently used to treat malaria produced by . However, in recent years, increasing evidence shows that some strains of are less susceptible to ACT in the Southeast Asian region. A data reanalysis of several omics approaches currently available about parasites of that have some degree of resistance to ACT was carried out.

The retromer is a highly conserved eukaryotic complex formed by the cargo selective complex (CSC) and the sorting nexin (SNX) dimer subcomplexes. Its function is protein recycling and recovery from the endosomes to conduct the target molecules to the trans-Golgi network or the plasma membrane. The protozoan responsible for human amoebiasis, , exhibits an active membrane movement and voracious phagocytosis, events in which the retromer may be fully involved.

Reliable in silico prediction of fragment binding modes remains a challenge in current drug design research. Due to their small size and generally low binding affinity, fragments can potentially interact with their target proteins in different ways. In the current study, we propose a workflow aimed at predicting favorable fragment binding sites and binding poses through multiple short molecular dynamics simulations.
