Inhibition of Monkeypox Virus DNA Polymerase Using Moringa oleifera Phytochemicals: Computational Studies of Drug-Likeness, Molecular Docking, Molecular Dynamics Simulation and Density Functional Theory. Indian J Microbiol 2024; 64:1057-1074. [PMID: 39282169 PMCID: PMC11399536 DOI: 10.1007/s12088-024-01244-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 09/18/2024] Open
Abstract
The emergence of zoonotic monkeypox (MPX) disease, caused by the double-stranded DNA monkeypox virus (MPXV), has become a global threat. Due to unavailability of a specific small molecule drug for MPX, this study investigated Moringa oleifera phytochemicals to find potent and safe inhibitors of DNA Polymerase (DNA Pol), a poxvirus drug target due to its role in the viral life cycle. For that, 146 phytochemicals were screened through drug-likeness and molecular docking analyses. Among these, 136 compounds exhibited drug-like properties, with Gossypetin showing the highest binding affinity (- 7.8 kcal/mol), followed by Riboflavin (- 7.6 kcal/mol) and Ellagic acid (- 7.6 kcal/mol). In comparison, the control drugs Cidofovir and Brincidofovir displayed lower binding affinities, with binding energies of - 6.0 kcal/mol and - 5.1 kcal/mol, respectively. Hydrogen bonds, electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions were the main non-bond interactions between inhibitors and protein active site. The identified compounds were further evaluated using molecular dynamics simulation, density functional theory analysis and ADMET analysis. Molecular dynamics simulations conducted over 200 ns revealed that DNA Pol-Gossypetin complex was not stable, however, Riboflavin and Ellagic acid complexes showed excellent stability indicating them as better DNA Pol inhibitors. The density functional theory analysis exhibited the chemical reactivity of these inhibitor compounds. The ADMET analysis suggested that the top phytochemicals were safe and showed no toxicity. In conclusion, this study has identified Riboflavin and Ellagic acid as potential DNA Pol inhibitors to control MPXV. Further experimental assays and clinical trials are needed to confirm their activity against the disease. Graphical Abstract

Abstract
The quest to identify antiviral drug candidates for dengue and rabies viral diseases is a great challenge for the researchers. While different research is being conducted on the repurposed drugs against these two viruses, no drug compound has gained success in treating them. Therefore, in this study, 3, 4-dihydroxy complexes have been virtually designed to investigate their antiviral properties and analyze their efficiency in interaction with the concerned viral diseases. DFT calculations are carried out to study the electronic and thermodynamic properties to understand the stability and reactivity of the reported compounds. These compounds were subjected to molecular docking studies to understand the binding interactions with NS5 Dengue virus mRNA 2'-O-methyltransferase and phosphoprotein C-terminal domain of Rabies virus. MD simulation, hydrogen bond analysis, and MM/PBSA were performed at 100 ns to support the obtained docking results.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) are crucial therapeutic targets for both the early and severe stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Chalcones and their chromone-based derivatives are well-known building blocks with anti-Alzheimer properties. This study synthesized 4-benzyloxychalcone derivatives and characterized their structures using IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. Additionally, the synthesized 4-benzyloxychalcone derivatives were tested for anti-acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity. The synthesized compounds outperformed galantamine, which is used as a positive control against acetylcholinesterase. Utilizing an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) receptor (PDB ID: 4EY7)-chalcone derivative (12a-c), a molecular docking investigation was performed on the synthesized compounds. The goal was to predict the binding sites and energies of the derivatives with respect to the receptor amino acids. The dynamic behavior of the ligand-receptor complex resulting from the interaction of the best docking compounds 12a and 12c with the acetylcholinesterase receptor was used to analyze the stability via MD simulation. MM/GBSA and MM/PBSA were used to calculate free binding energies using snapshots from system trajectories. Advanced computational approaches incorporating long-range corrections were utilized to calculate the molecular characteristics of chalcone derivatives 12a-c at the DFT/wB97XD/6-311++G(d,p) level. We used the molecular electrostatic surface potential (MESP) with high-quality data and visualization to find the most active site in these molecules. Reactivity descriptors, including the condensed Fukui function, chemical hardness (η), dual descriptors, chemical potential (μ), and electrophilicity (ω), were calculated for the chalcone derivatives.

Abstract
The development of effective drugs targeting the K-Ras oncogene product is a significant focus in anticancer drug development. Despite the lack of successful Ras signaling inhibitors, recent research has identified PDEδ, a KRAS transporter, as a potential target for inhibiting the oncogenic KRAS signaling pathway. This study aims to investigate the interactions between eight K-Ras inhibitors (deltarazine, deltaflexin 1 and 2, and its analogues) and PDEδ to understand their binding modes. The research will utilize computational techniques such as density functional theory (DFT) and molecular electrostatic surface potential (MESP), molecular docking, binding site analyses, molecular dynamic (MD) simulations, electronic structure computations, and predictions of the binding free energy. Molecular dynamic simulations (MD) will be used to predict the binding conformations and pharmacophoric features in the active site of PDEδ for the examined structures. The binding free energies determined using the MMPB(GB)SA method will be compared with the observed potency values of the tested compounds. This computational approach aims to enhance understanding of the PDEδ selective mechanism, which could contribute to the development of novel selective inhibitors for K-Ras signaling.

Abstract
The main objective of this study is to synthesize and characterize of a new three complexes of Pd (II), Cu (II), and Cu (I) metal ions with novel ligand ((Z)-2-(phenylamino)-N'-(thiophen-2-ylmethylene)acetohydrazide) H2LB. The structural composition of new compounds was assessed using several analytical techniques including FT-IR, 1H-NMR, electronic spectra, powder X-ray diffraction, and thermal behavior analysis. The Gaussian09 program employed the Density Functional Theory (DFT) approach to optimize the geometry of all synthesized compounds, therefore obtaining the most favorable structures and crucial parameters. An investigation was conducted to examine the impact of γ-irradiation on ligands and complexes. Before and after γ-irradiation, the antimicrobial efficiency was investigated for the activity of ligands and their chelates. The Cu(I) complex demonstrated enhanced antibacterial activity after irradiation, as well as other standard medications such as ampicillin and gentamicin. Similarly, the Cu(I) complex exhibited superior activity against antifungal species relative to the standard drug Nystatin. The docking investigation utilized the target location of the topoisomerase enzyme (2xct) chain A.

Abstract
The reactivity of the formazanate potassium salt [LtBu K(thf)] (LtBu= PhNNC(4-t BuPh)NNPh) with the group 14 chlorotetrylenes [{PhC(t BuN)2 }ECl] (E=Si, Ge, Sn) was investigated. Three corresponding compounds with unique configurations were formed, demonstrating the diverse reactivity of the system. In addition to the anticipated salt metathesis reactions of the potassium salt with the chlorine function of tetrylenes, unexpected reduction/insertion steps into the N=N bond of the formazanate (Si, Ge) and subsequent C-H activation (Ge) were also observed. Furthermore, when the neutral formazan ligand [LtBu H] was exposed to silylenes [{PhC(t BuN)2 }SiCl] and [LPh SiNMePy], substitution and addition reactions occurred. These discoveries significantly enrich the diversity of formazanate/formazan redox chemistry, opening up new avenues for exploration in this field.

Abstract
Bacterial virulence becomes a significant challenge for clinical treatments, particularly those characterized as Multi-Drug-Resistant (MDR) strains. Therefore, the preparation of new compounds with active moieties could be a successful approach for eradication of MDR strains. For this purpose, newly synthesized quinoline compounds were prepared and tested for their antimicrobial activity against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa (PA). Among the synthesized derivatives, compounds 1-(quinolin-2-ylamino)pyrrolidine-2,5-dione (8) and 2-(2-((5-methylfuran-2-yl)methylene)hydrazinyl)quinoline (12) were shown to possess the highest antimicrobial activity with the minimum inhibitory concentration with the values of 5±2.2 and10±1.5 μg/mL towards Pseudomonas aeruginosa without any activity towards MRSA. Interestingly, compounds 2-(2-((1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)hydrazinyl)quinoline (13) and 2-(4-bromophenyl)-3-(quinolin-2-ylamino)thiazolidin-4-one (16c) showed significant inhibition activity against Staphylococcus aureus MRSA and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Compound 13 (with indole moiety) particularly displayed excellent bactericidal activity with low MIC values 20±3.3 and 10±1.5 μg/mL against Staphylococcus aureus MRSA and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, respectively. Effects molecular modelling was used to determine the mode of action for the antimicrobial effect. The stability of complexes formed by docking and target-ligand pairing was evaluated using molecular dynamics simulations. The compounds were also tested for binding affinity to the target protein using MM-PBSA. Density-functional theory (DFT) calculations were also used to investigate the electrochemical properties of various compounds.

Abstract
To discover anti-acetylcholinesterase agents for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a series of novel Schiff base-coumarin hybrids was rationally designed, synthesized successfully, and structurally characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS) analyses. These hybrids were evaluated for their potential inhibitory effect on acetylcholinesterase (AChE). All of them exhibited excellent inhibitory activity against AChE. The IC50 values ranged from 87.84 to 515.59 μg/mL; hybrids 13c and 13d with IC50 values of 0.232 ± 0.011 and 0.190 ± 0.004 µM, respectively, showed the most potent activity as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs). The reference drug, Galantamine, yielded an IC50 of 1.142 ± 0.027 µM. Reactivity descriptors, including chemical potential (μ), chemical hardness (η), electrophilicity (ω), condensed Fukui function, and dual descriptors are calculated at wB97XD/6-311++ G (d,p) to identify reactivity changes of the designed compounds. An in-depth investigation of the natural charge pattern of the studied compounds led to a deep understanding of the important interaction centers between these compounds and the biological receptors of AChE. The molecular electrostatic surface potential (MESP) of the most active site in these derivatives was determined using high-quality information and visualization. Molecular docking analysis was performed to predict binding sites and binding energies. The structure-activity-property relationship studies indicated that the proposed compounds exhibit good oral bioavailability properties. To explore the stability and dynamic behavior of the ligand-receptor complexes, molecular dynamics simulations (MDS) were performed for 100 ns on the two best docked derivatives, 13c and 13d, with the AChE (4EY7) receptor. A popular method for determining the free binding energies (MM/GBSA) is performed using snapshots taken from the systems' trajectories at 100 ns. These results revealed that the complex system of compound 13d acquired a relatively more stable conformation and exhibited better descriptors than the complex system of compound 13c and the Galantamine drug, suggesting its potential as an effective inhibiting drug. The binding free energy analysis revealed that the 13d-4EY7 complex exhibited greater stability with AChE receptors compared to other complexes.

Abstract
Ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all at all ages is the third goal of the sustainable development plan, so it was necessary to identify the most important problems that threaten health in our world. The World Health Organization declared that antibiotic resistance is one of the uppermost global public health threats facing humanity and searching for new antibiotics is slow. This problem can be approached by improving available drugs to combat various bacterial threats. To circumvent bacterial resistance, three copper(II) complexes based on the pefloxacin drug were prepared and characterized using analytical, spectroscopic, and thermal techniques. The resulting data suggested the formation of one octahedral binary and two distorted square pyramidal ternary complexes. Fluorescence spectra results revealed the formation of a turn-on fluorophore for amino acid detection. Computational calculations investigated quantum and reactivity parameters. Molecular electrostatic potential profiles and noncovalent bond interaction-reduced density gradient analysis indicated the active sites on the complex surface. The complexes were subjected to six microbial species, where the octahedral binary complex provoked its antimicrobial potency in comparison with ternary complexes. The enhanced antimicrobial activity against gram-negative bacterium E-coli compared to gentamicin was exhibited by the three complexes. Docking simulation was performed based on the crystal structure of E. coli and S. pneumoniae receptors using 5I2D and 6O15 codes. The binary complex exhibited a potent fitness score with 5I2D (TBE = - 107 kcal/mol) while ternary complexes displayed the highest docked score of fitness with 6O15.

Abstract
A series of carbamothioyl-furan-2-carboxamide derivatives were synthesized using a one-pot strategy. Compounds were obtained in moderate to excellent yields (56-85%). Synthesized derivatives were evaluated for their anti-cancer (HepG2, Huh-7, and MCF-7 human cancer cell lines) and anti-microbial potential. Compound p-tolylcarbamothioyl)furan-2-carboxamide showed the highest anti-cancer activity at a concentration of 20 μg/mL against hepatocellular carcinoma, with a cell viability of 33.29%. All compounds showed significant anti-cancer activity against HepG2, Huh-7, and MCF-7, while indazole and 2,4-dinitrophenyl containing carboxamide derivatives were found to be less potent against all tested cell lines. Results were compared with the standard drug doxorubicin. Carboxamide derivatives possessing 2,4-dinitrophenyl showed significant inhibition against all bacterial and fungal strains with inhibition zones (I.Z) in the range of 9-17 and MICs were found to be 150.7-295 μg/mL. All carboxamide derivatives showed significant anti-fungal activity against all tested fungal strains. Gentamicin was used as the standard drug. The results showed that carbamothioyl-furan-2-carboxamide derivatives could be a potential source of anti-cancer and anti-microbial agents.

Abstract
In an effort to discover a novel potential bioactive compound, a mono-nuclear Pd(II) complex with an amino acid derivative as ligand was synthesized and characterized through experimental and computational methodologies. A square-planar configuration was suggested for palladium(II) complex utilizing density functional theory. MEP map and Mulliken atomic charge were detected electrophilic and nucleophilic regions of the compound for reactions. The lipophilicity and cytotoxic activity of the complex was more effective than cisplatin. Also, OSIRIS DataWarrior revealed proper oral bioavailability and good drug-likeness for the compound. In-vitro binding behavior of the Pd(II) complex with DNA and serum albumin (BSA) were fully determined via variety of procedures including fluorescence, UV-Vis, CD, viscosity, gel electrophoresis experiments and molecular simulation. The negative signs of ΔH° and ΔS° for Pd(II) complex-CT-DNA/-BSA systems indicated the existence of hydrogen bonding/van der Waals interactions for both binding systems. Additionally, docking simulation illustrated the interaction of Pd(II) complex with the minor groove of DNA and the hydrophobic cavity of the BSA (drug binding site I).

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has emerged as a viable choice for several biological and environmental applications because of its high efficiency, cheap cost, and high photostability. In pursuit of this purpose, the research of its many forms has been influenced by these unique aspects. The development of novel TiO2-based hybrid materials with enhanced photocatalytically induced anticancer activity has gained tremendous attention. Here, we have developed a novel photocatalytic material (TiO2–Ag NPs@-CD) by decorating ultrasmall silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with per-6-thio-β-cyclodextrin (SH-β-CD) on TiO2 NPs. TiO2–Ag NPs@-CD were characterized by employing various characterization techniques and evaluated for their anticancer activity against HeLa cancer cells using an MTT assay. The biocompatibility of the designed nanoparticles was determined on two normal cell lines, namely, 3T3 and human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). The results show that the TiO2–Ag NPs@-CD induced superior cytotoxic effects on HeLa cancer cells at a concentration of 64 μg/ml. Live-dead staining and oxidative stress investigations demonstrated that cell membrane disintegration and ROS-induced oxidative stress generated by TiO2-Ag NPs@-CD inside HeLa cancer cells are the contributing factors to their exceptional anti-cancer performance. Moreover, TiO2-Ag NPs@-CD exhibited good biocompatibility with 3T3 and hMSCs. These results indicated that the combination of all three components—a silver core, SH-β-CD ligands, and TiO2 nanoparticles—produced a synergistic anticancer effect. Hence, the TiO2-Ag NPs@-CD is a promising material that can be employed for different biological applications.

Abstract
A new series of Zr(IV), V(IV), Ru(III), and Cd(II) complexes with the ligand N-((5-hydroxy-4-oxo-4H-pyran-3-yl)methylene)-2-(p-tolylamino)acetohydrazide (H2L) have been prepared. FT-IR, 1H-NMR, electronic spectra, powder X-ray, and thermal behavior methods were applied to elucidate the structural composition of new compounds. Geometry optimization for all synthesized compounds was conducted using the Gaussian09 program via the DFT method, to obtain optimal structures and essential parameters. Moreover, the antibacterial and antitumor activity of the ligand and its complexes were studied, where the Cd(II) complex acquires probably the best antibacterial activity followed by the Ru(III) complex towards bacterial species than others when using ampicillin and gentamicin were used as standard drugs. The complexes exhibited interestingly antitumor potential against the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. The cytotoxicity of the new complexes has been arranged to follow the order: Ru(III) complex > Cd(II) complex > Zr(IV) complex > V(IV) complex > ligand. Molecular docking was performed on the active site of ribosyltransferase and obtained good results. Structure-based molecular docking is used to identify a potential therapeutic inhibitor for NUDT5.

Abstract
The importance of this study stems from, it concentrates on new approach applying both practical and theoretical aspects to study structure stability of direct orange dye 26 (DO26) as an important dye widely used for dyeing of cotton or viscose for red orange direct printing. The stable dyes are so difficult to remove, decolorized and/or degrade, in pure solution or in wastewater samples, without using powerful removal environmental techniques electrochemical oxidations suggest and efficiently used in our Lab. Therefore, it is very important to compare between practical thermal and mass results as efficient techniques in studying dye stability, in comparison with theoretical results using Gaussian program for structural stability identification of DO26 dye, via careful inspection of various phenomena detected in its two symmetrical arms around urea center. Direct orange dye 26 (DO26) structure has been studied applying both practical spectroscopic and theoretical investigations. DFT-B3LYP/6-311 + + G(d,p) calculations and the electronic vibrational properties are performed to investigate its structure stability and consequently its degradation and removal from its environmental media. Correlation is found between experimental and calculated data. An intra-molecular hydrogen bonding interaction had been detected and characterized in dye skeleton. The hydrogen bonding present in the dye structure affecting its vibrational properties had been discussed. Natural population analysis like HOMO and LUMO and high-quality molecular electrostatic potential plots along with various electronics had been presented at the same level of theory. Chemical reactivity descriptors from conceptual density functional theory point of view and structure activity relationship descriptor were obtained. The experimental UV/visible, FT-IR, mass and GC-mass spectral data of the dye DO26 (D1) had been presented. These data had been supported by TD-DFT calculations to simulate the experimental spectra with computing the natural transition orbitals (NTO) and the orbital composition. Actually there is a problem that the degradation of this dye in wastewater by different techniques leads to various unknown fragments, but on using theoretical possibilities, it can be expected what happened in practical work.

Abstract
This review provides insight into the rapidly expanding field of metal-based antifungal agents. In recent decades, the antibacterial resistance crisis has caused reflection on many aspects of public health where weaknesses in our medicinal arsenal may potentially be present - including in the treatment of fungal infections, particularly in the immunocompromised and those with underlying health conditions where mortality rates can exceed 50%. Combination of organic moieties with known antifungal properties and metal ions can lead to increased bioavailability, uptake and efficacy. Development of such organometallic drugs may alleviate pressure on existing antifungal medications. Prodigious antimicrobial moieties such as azoles, Schiff bases, thiosemicarbazones and others reported herein lend themselves easily to the coordination of a host of metal ions, which can vastly improve the biocidal activity of the parent ligand, thereby extending the library of antifungal drugs available to medical professionals for treatment of an increasing incidence of fungal infections. Overall, this review shows the impressive but somewhat unexploited potential of metal-based compounds to treat fungal infections.

Abstract
The pharmacological efficacy of the variety tetradentate ligands encouraged us to design attractive compounds through effective synthetic procedure. The prepared Schiff base ligand 6,6'-((1E,1'E)-((4-chloro-1,2-phenylene)bis(azaneylylidene))bis(methaneylylidene))bis(2-ethoxy phenol (H2L), which derived from 4-chloro-o-phenylenediamine and 3-ethoxy-salicylaldehyde and its VO(II), Zn(II) and ZrO(II) metal chelates, have been synthesized and characterized with aim of that it may struggle the invasion of drug resistance. The chemical structural of studied compounds were discussed by TGA, elemental analysis, UV-Vis., 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FTIR, mass spectral, PXRD, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements and density functional theory. The results assigned square pyramid geometries for [VOL] and [ZrOL].2H2O chelates and an octahedral geometry for [ZnL(H2O)2].2H2O chelate. Powder XRD data showed that the complexes are monoclinic with polycrystalline nature. The results of CT-DNA interaction with the titled chelates showed that the binding between CT-DNA and the metal complexes occurs through intercalation mode. Their CT-DNA binding efficiency estimated in terms of their binding constants (Kb), which gave the order: VOL (6.9 × 105) > ZrOL (6.3 × 105) > ZnL(H2O)2 (5.5 × 105). The antimicrobial activities of the synthesized compounds were tested against selected fungal and bacterial strains using well diffusion technique. The obtained chelates showed higher antifungal and antibacterial activities than their corresponding ligand. Furthermore, the M-complexes showed higher potent cytotoxic effect toward HEK-293, human colorectal HepG-2, HCT-116 and MCF-7 adenocarcinoma cell lines compared to the free H2L ligand. Investigation of antioxidant property represented that all the prepared complexes have better radical scavenging potencies against DPPH radicals than the free H2L ligand. To study the molecular docking of proposed compounds versus Tyrosine kinases receptor (TKR), we used AutoDock1.5.6rc3® suite. The current compounds (H2L, VOL, ZrOL and ZnL(H2O)2) and STI were found to bind with C-kit of TKR with HBs at ILE789.A, ILE808.A, ASP810.A, GLU640.A and TYR846 amino acid residue and the binding energies were - 8.9, -8.93, -8.83, -1.48 and -10.39 kcal/mol respectively.

Abstract
Computational calculations of 5-bromo-3-nitropyridine-2-carbonitrile (5B3N2C) on molecular structure and on energy are implemented using the 6-311++G(d,p) basis set by DFT/B3LYP method. The UV-Vis spectrum of 5B3N2C was obtained by TD-DFT with chloroform as a solvent. The analysis of molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) and frontier molecular orbital (FMO) were used to evaluate, the entire electron density and organic reactive sites of 5B3N2C. The electron-hole conversions were conjointly deliberated. Donor-acceptor interactions (NBO) analysis examines the intra-and intermolecular charge transfer, hyper conjugate interaction of the compound. The orbital molecular contributions are evaluated by density of states (DOS and PDOS). To discern the reactivity of the molecule, topology analyses were done. The biological prominence of the 5B3N2C molecule was investigated in a pertinent study of molecular docking with target protein 3CEJ exhibiting the centromere associated protein inhibitor property. Molecular Dynamics simulations were done to assess the stability of the complex. 5B3N2C physiochemical parameters were also compared to those of widely viable medications Ispinesib and Lonafarnib.

Abstract
BACKGROUND NiO nanoparticles have attracted much attention due to their unique properties. They have been synthesized using chemical and physical techniques that often need toxic chemicals. These toxic chemicals cannot easily be removed from the nanoparticle's surface, make them less biocompatible, and limit their biological applications. Instead, plants based green synthesis of nanoparticles uses phytomolecules as reducing and capping agents. These phytomolecules are biologically active with no or less toxic effects. MATERIALS AND METHODS Phytomolecules-coated NiO nanoparticles were synthesized employing a green route using Abutilon indicum leaf extract. For comparative study, we also have synthesized NiO nanoparticles using the co-precipitation method. Synthesized nanoparticles were successfully characterized using different spectroscopic techniques. The synthesized nanoparticles were evaluated for antibacterial activity with agar well diffusion assay against different bacteria compared to standard drug and plant extract. They are also examined for anticancer potential using MTT assay against HeLa cancer cells, and further, their antioxidant potential was determined using DPPH assay. Biocompatibility of the synthesized nanoparticles was assessed against fibroblast cells. RESULTS Phytomolecules-coated NiO nanoparticles were demonstrated superior antibacterial and anticancer performance against bacteria (E. coli, B. bronchiseptica, B. subtilis, and S. aureus) by presenting highest zone of inhibitions (18 ± 0.58 mm, 21 ± 0.45 mm, 22 ± 0.32 mm, and 23 ± 0.77 mm) and HeLa cancer cells by exhibiting the least cell viability percentage (51.74 ± 0.35%) compared to plant extract and chemically synthesized NiO nanoparticles but were comparable to standard antibiotic and anticancer drugs, respectively. Phytomolecules-coated NiO nanoparticles were also demonstrated excellent antioxidant activity (79.87 ± 0.43% DPPH inhibition) and biocompatibility (> 90% cell viability) with fibroblast cells. CONCLUSION Nanoparticle synthesis using the Abutilon indicum leaf extract is an efficient and economical method, produces biocompatible and more biologically active nanoparticles, which can be an excellent candidate for therapeutic applications.

Green Synthesis of MnO Nanoparticles Using Abutilon indicum Leaf Extract for Biological, Photocatalytic, and Adsorption Activities. Biomolecules 2020; 10:biom10050785. [PMID: 32438654 PMCID: PMC7277848 DOI: 10.3390/biom10050785] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2020] [Revised: 05/01/2020] [Accepted: 05/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
We report the synthesis of MnO nanoparticles (AI-MnO NAPs) using biological molecules of Abutilon indicum leaf extract. Further, they were evaluated for antibacterial and cytotoxicity activity against different pathogenic microbes (Escherichia coli, Bordetella bronchiseptica, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus subtilis) and HeLa cancerous cells. Synthesized NAPs were also investigated for photocatalytic dye degradation potential against methylene blue (MB), and adsorption activity against Cr(VI) was also determined. Results from Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed the successful synthesis of NAPs with spherical morphology and crystalline nature. Biological activity results demonstrated that synthesized AI-MnO NAPs exhibited significant antibacterial and cytotoxicity propensities against pathogenic microbes and cancerous cells, respectively, compared with plant extract. Moreover, synthesized AI-MnO NAPs demonstrated the comparable biological activities results to standard drugs. These excellent biological activities results are attributed to the existence of the plant’s biological molecules on their surfaces and small particle size (synergetic effect). Synthesized NAPs displayed better MB-photocatalyzing properties under sunlight than an ultraviolet lamp. The Cr(VI) adsorption result showed that synthesized NAPs efficiently adsorbed more Cr(VI) at higher acidic pH than at basic pH. Hence, the current findings suggest that Abutilon indicum is a valuable source for tailoring the potential of NAPs toward various enhanced biological, photocatalytic, and adsorption activities. Consequently, the plant’s biological molecule-mediated synthesized AI-MnO NAPs could be excellent contenders for future therapeutic applications.
