[PMID: 38765036 PMCID: PMC11096944 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e30315] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2023] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024] Open
Abstract
In this study, bibliometric analysis was carried out to comprehend the global research trends, hotspots, scientific frontiers, and output characteristics of the links between dendritic cells (DCs) and allergic diseases from 2004 to 2023. Publications and their recorded information were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). VOSviewer and Citespace were used to visualize the hotspots and trends of research area. ChemBio 3D, Autodock tools, and Discovery Studio were used to visualize the molecular docking results of hotspots. A total of 4861 articles were retrieved. The number of publications (Np) was in a high and stable state. Years 2011 and 2017 were two peaks in Np. The largest contributor in terms of publications, scholars, and affiliations was the USA. The paper published in NATURE MEDICINE (IF: 82.9) and written by Trompette, A in 2006 had the highest global citation score (GCS). Keywords, such as "asthma," "t-cells," "inflammation," "expression," "atopic dermatitis," "food allergy," "gut microbiota," "murine model," and "cytokines related to immunity" appeared the most frequently. Most of the binding free energy of the key active components of Saposhnikovia divaricata docked with toll-like receptor proteins well. This bibliometric study aimed to help better comprehend the present state and make decisions from a macro viewpoint.

Plant-derived compounds effectively inhibit the main protease of SARS-CoV-2: An in silico approach. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0273341. [PMID: 35998194 PMCID: PMC9398018 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0273341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2022] [Accepted: 08/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
The current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by the coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), involves severe acute respiratory syndrome and poses unprecedented challenges to global health. Structure-based drug design techniques have been developed targeting the main protease of the SARS-CoV-2, responsible for viral replication and transcription, to rapidly identify effective inhibitors and therapeutic targets. Herein, we constructed a phytochemical dataset of 1154 compounds using deep literature mining and explored their potential to bind with and inhibit the main protease of SARS-CoV-2. The three most effective phytochemicals Cosmosiine, Pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside, and Cleomiscosin A had binding energies of -8.4, -8.4, and -8.2 kcal/mol, respectively, in the docking analysis. These molecules could bind to Gln189, Glu166, Cys145, His41, and Met165 residues on the active site of the targeted protein, leading to specific inhibition. The pharmacological characteristics and toxicity of these compounds, examined using absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) analyses, revealed no carcinogenicity or toxicity. Furthermore, the complexes were simulated with molecular dynamics for 100 ns to calculate the root mean square deviation (RMSD), root mean square fluctuation (RMSF), radius of gyration (Rg), solvent-accessible surface area (SASA), and hydrogen profiles from the simulation trajectories. Our analysis validated the rigidity of the docked protein-ligand. Taken together, our computational study findings might help develop potential drugs to combat the main protease of the SARS-CoV-2 and help alleviate the severity of the pandemic.

New synthetic coumarinolignans as attenuators of pro-inflammatory cytokines in LPS-induced sepsis and carrageenan-induced paw oedema models. Inflammopharmacology 2020; 28:1365-1373. [PMID: 32356087 DOI: 10.1007/s10787-020-00710-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2019] [Accepted: 04/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to explore the inhibition efficacy of new synthetic coumarinolignans (SCLs) against the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines in two in vivo models of inflammation. METHODS Four SCLs 1-4 were screened for their pro-inflammatory cytokine inhibitory potential through oral administration at a dose of 50 mg/kg body weight in lipopolysaccharide-induced mouse endotoxaemia and carrageenan-induced mouse paw oedema models. Levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNFα and IL-6) in blood and paw tissue samples were estimated using ELISA. Paw oedema was measured using a plethysmometer. Results were compared with a natural coumarinolignan, cleomiscosin A (5), and the structure-activity relationship (SAR) was interpreted. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Compound 2 had the greatest potential in the endotoxaemia model, exhibiting 66.41%, 62.56% and 43.15% inhibition of plasma IL-1β, TNFα and IL-6 secretions, respectively. Further dose-dependent study revealed its anti-inflammatory potential even at dose of 10 mg/kg body weight with 24.42% decline in the level of IL-1β. Nevertheless, SCLs 1, 3 and 4 showed marked inhibitory activity with 57.54%, 51.48% and 62.46% reduction in the levels of IL-1β, respectively. Moreover, compound 2 decreased the plasma TNFα and IL-1β levels to 50.03% and 36.58% along with the reduction of paw oedema volume in the local inflammation induced by carrageenan. All compounds including cleomiscosin A (5) were more effective against IL-1β. By studying SAR, the presence of dihydroxyl groups in the phenyl ring of lignans was identified to be essential for the activity. Also, esterification of lignans and presence of a 4-methyl substituent in the coumarin nucleus were found to play some role in enhancing the activity. CONCLUSION All four SCLs, especially compound 2, have shown vast potential to emerge out as promising anti-inflammatory drugs.

Abstract
Coumarinolignans (CLs) are a group of non-conventional lignans having coumarins and phenyl propanes as two C6C3 units linked commonly through a dioxane bridge. The research findings during Jan 2008-May 2018 on this group of secondary metabolites describing their occurrence, structural characteristics, large-scale preparation, synthesis, derivatives, pharmacological activities, and structure-activity relationship are presented in this review. Around 38 CLs have been isolated from 40 plant species belonging to 20 different families during the review period. Reports on the syntheses of CL derivatives are also discussed. The majority of the reported CLs have shown potential anti-inflammatory activities, especially against pro-inflammatory cytokines. The other pharmacological effects exhibited by CLs such as hepatoprotective, anticancer, etc., are also covered in this review comprehending the lacunae in their development into drugs. This article is a continuation of our earlier work on coumarinolignans (Begum SA, Sahai M, Ray AB (2010) Non-conventional lignans: coumarinolignans, flavonolignans, and stilbenolignans. In: Kinghorn AD, Falk H, Kobayashi J (eds) Progress in the chemistry of organic natural products, Springer, Verlag/Wien, p 1-70).
