AI Article Synopsis

  • The study uses experimental data on specific chemical compounds to evaluate their effectiveness in inhibiting the growth of HT-29 colon cancer cells.
  • The researchers created predictive models (CoMFA and CoMSIA) that showed strong predictive ability and stability.
  • These models were then employed to design two new potential drugs that demonstrated low effective concentrations (IC50s in the submicromolar range) against tumor cell growth.

Article Abstract

Taking advantage of our in-house experimental data on 3-cyano-2-imino-1, 2-dihydropyridine and 3-cyano-2- oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine derivatives as inhibitors of the growth of the human HT-29 colon adenocarcinoma tumor cell line, we have established a highly significant CoMFA and CoMSIA models (q2cv=0.70/0.639). The models were investigated to assure their stability and predictivity (r2pred=0.65/0.61) and successfully applied to design two new potential cell growth inhibitory agents with IC50s in the submicromolar range.

Introduction: The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) presents a crucial target for combatting cancer mortality.

Methods: This study employs a suite of computational techniques, including 3D-QSAR, ligand-based virtual screening, molecular docking, fingerprinting analysis, ADME, and DFT-based analyses (MESP, HOMO, LUMO), supplemented by molecular dynamics simulations and MMGB/PBSA free energy calculations, to explore the binding dynamics of quinazoline derivatives with EGFR. With strong q2 and r2 values from CoMFA and CoMSIA models, our 3D- QSAR models reliably predict EGFR inhibitors' efficacy.

Background: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is a type of cancer that originates in the lining of the uterus, known as the endometrium. It is associated with various treatment options such as surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy, each presenting unique challenges and limitations. Beta-catenin, a protein involved in the development and progression of several cancers, including EC, plays a crucial role.

In recent years, Alzheimer disease (AD) as a neurodegenerative disorder has been increasing annually with the aging of the global population, therefore, development of novel anti-AD drugs is imperative. Studies have proven that glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) is a pivotal factor in the development of AD. Therefore, GSK-3β inhibitors would provide powerful means to treat the disorders, such as AD.

Background: The development of multidrug resistant strains of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing has become a global problem; therefore, the discovery of new antibacterial agents is the only available solution.

Objective: To improve and propose new compounds with antibacterial activity, the three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship and molecular docking studies were carried out on Aztreonam analogs as inhibitors in DNA gyrase B.

Method: This study's 3D-Quantitative structure-activity relationship model was created using on the Comparative Molecular Field Analysis and the Comparative Molecular Similarity Indices Analysis.

Malaria is an infectious disease caused by spp. parasites, with widespread drug resistance to most antimalarial drugs. We report the development of two 3D-QSAR models based on comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA), comparative molecular similarity index analysis (CoMSIA), and a 2D-QSAR model, using a database of 349 compounds with activity against the 3D7 strain.
