Abstract
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is one of the most attractive targets for research on cancer treatment, and nowadays, many studies carried out for the development of effective HSP90 inhibitors. In the current study, recently published ten natural compounds have been investigated using computer aided drug design (CADD) approach. The study consists of three parts; (1) density functional theory (DFT) calculations including geometry optimizations, vibrational analyses, and molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) map calculations, (2) molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and (3) binding energy calculations. In DFT calculations, Becke three-parameter hybrid functional with Lee-Yang-Parr correlation functional (B3LYP) and 6-31 + G(d,p) basis set were used. After performing molecular docking calculations, top-scoring ligand-receptor complexes were subjected to MD simulations for 100 ns to investigate the stability of the ligand-receptor complexes and the interactions in more detail. Finally, in binding energy calculations molecular mechanics with Poisson-Boltzmann surface area (MM-PBSA) method was used. The results showed that five of the investigated ten natural compounds have higher binding affinity to HSP90α than that of reference drug Geldanamycin, and could be promising compounds for future studies.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
CONTEXT PARP-1 plays an important role in DNA repair and apoptosis, and PARP-1 inhibitors have shown to be effective in the treatment of several malignancies. To evaluate the function of new PARP-1 inhibitors as anticancer adjuvant medicines, 3D-QSAR, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of a sequence of dihydrodiazepinoindolone derivatives PARP-1 inhibitors were undertaken in this study. METHODS In this paper, 43 PARP-1 inhibitors were studied in a three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity index analysis (CoMSIA). CoMFA with q2 of 0.675 and r2 of 0.981 was achieved, as was CoMSIA with q2 of 0.755 and r2 of 0.992. The changed areas of these compounds are shown by steric, electrostatic, hydrophobic, and hydrogen-bonded acceptor field contour maps. Subsequently, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations further confirmed that key residues Gly863 and Ser904 of PARP-1 are vital residues for protein interactions and their binding affinity. The effects of 3D-QSAR, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations supply a new route for the search of new PARP-1 inhibitors. Finally, we designed eight new compounds with exact activity and ADME/T properties.

Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90) Inhibitors as Anticancer Medicines: A Review on the Computer-Aided Drug Discovery Approaches over the Past Five Years. COMPUTATIONAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS IN MEDICINE 2022; 2022:2147763. [PMID: 35685897 PMCID: PMC9173959 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2147763] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2021] [Revised: 05/08/2022] [Accepted: 05/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Cancer is a disease caused by the uncontrolled, abnormal growth of cells in different anatomic sites. In 2018, it was predicted that the worldwide cancer burden would rise to 18.1 million new cases and 9.6 million deaths. Anticancer compounds, often known as chemotherapeutic medicines, have gained much interest in recent cancer research. These medicines work through various biological processes in targeting cells at various stages of the cell's life cycle. One of the most significant roadblocks to developing anticancer drugs is that traditional chemotherapy affects normal cells and cancer cells, resulting in substantial side effects. Recently, advancements in new drug development methodologies and the prediction of the targeted interatomic and intermolecular ligand interaction sites have been beneficial. This has prompted further research into developing and discovering novel chemical species as preferred therapeutic compounds against specific cancer types. Identifying new drug molecules with high selectivity and specificity for cancer is a prerequisite in the treatment and management of the disease. The overexpression of HSP90 occurs in patients with cancer, and the HSP90 triggers unstable harmful kinase functions, which enhance carcinogenesis. Therefore, the development of potent HSP90 inhibitors with high selectivity and specificity becomes very imperative. The activities of HSP90 as chaperones and cochaperones are complex due to the conformational dynamism, and this could be one of the reasons why no HSP90 drugs have made it beyond the clinical trials. Nevertheless, HSP90 modulations appear to be preferred due to the competitive inhibition of the targeted N-terminal adenosine triphosphate pocket. This study, therefore, presents an overview of the various computational models implored in the development of HSP90 inhibitors as anticancer medicines. We hereby suggest an extensive investigation of advanced computational modelling of the three different domains of HSP90 for potent, effective inhibitor design with minimal off-target effects.

[PMID: 34833900 PMCID: PMC8621365 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26226807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2021] [Revised: 10/31/2021] [Accepted: 11/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Danshen (DS), the dry root of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge., has been used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for many years to promote blood circulation and to inhibit thrombosis. However, the active ingredients responsible for the anti-thrombotic effect and the underlying mechanisms are yet to be fully elucidated. Methods: Molecular docking was used to predict the active ingredients in DS and their potential targets by calculating the scores of docking between DS ingredients and thrombosis-related proteins. Then, a chemical-induced zebrafish thrombosis model was applied to confirm their anti-thrombotic effects. Result: The molecular docking results indicated that compared to the control ligand, higher docking scores were observed for several compounds in DS, among which salvianolic acid B (SAB), lithospermic acid (LA), rosmarinic acid (MA), and luteolin-7-O-β-d-glucoside (LG) could attenuate zebrafish caudal vein thrombosis and recover the decrease in heart red blood cells (RBCs) in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusions: Our study showed that it is possible to screen the potential active components in natural products by combining the molecular docking method and zebrafish in vivo model.

Abstract
3D printing is an innovative manufacturing technology with great potential to revolutionise solid dosage forms. Novel features of 3D printing technology confer advantage over conventional solid dosage form manufacturing technologies, including rapid prototyping and an unparalleled capability to fabricate complex geometries with spatially separated conformations. Such a novel technology could transform the pharmaceutical industry, enabling the production of highly personalised dosage forms with well-defined release profiles. In this work, we review the current state of the art of using additive manufacturing for predicting and understanding drug release from 3D printed novel structures. Furthermore, we describe a wide spectrum of 3D printing technologies, materials, procedure, and processing parameters used to fabricate fundamentally different matrices with different drug releases. The different methods to manipulate drug release patterns including the surface area-to-mass ratio, infill pattern, geometry, and composition, are critically evaluated. Moreover, the drug release mechanisms and models that could aid exploiting the release profile are also covered. Finally, this review also covers the design opportunities alongside the technical and regulatory challenges that these rapidly evolving technologies present.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by the mutation and overexpression of the cyclin D1 protein by the reciprocal chromosomal translocation t(11;14)(q13:q32). AIM The present study aims to identify potential inhibition of MMP9, Proteasome, BTK, and TAK1 and determine the most suitable and effective protein target for the MCL. METHODOLOGY Nine known inhibitors for MMP9, 24 for proteasome, 15 for BTK and 14 for TAK1 were screened. SB-3CT (PubChem ID: 9883002), oprozomib (PubChem ID: 25067547), zanubrutinib (PubChem ID: 135565884) and TAK1 inhibitor (PubChem ID: 66760355) were recognized as drugs with high binding capacity with their respective protein receptors. 41, 72, 102 and 3 virtual screened compounds were obtained after the similarity search with compound (PubChem ID:102173753), PubChem compound SCHEMBL15569297 (PubChem ID:72374403), PubChem compound SCHEMBL17075298 (PubChem ID:136970120) and compound CID: 71814473 with best virtual screened compounds. RESULT MMP9 inhibitors show commendable affinity and good interaction profile of compound holding PubChem ID:102173753 over the most effective established inhibitor SB-3CT. The pharmacophore study of the best virtual screened compound reveals its high efficacy based on various interactions. The virtual screened compound's better affinity with the target MMP9 protein was deduced using toxicity and integration profile studies. CONCLUSION Based on the ADMET profile, the compound (PubChem ID: 102173753) could be a potent drug for MCL treatment. Similar to the established SB-3CT, the compound was non-toxic with LD50 values for both the compounds lying in the same range.
