Abstract
The healing of wounds is the flagging concern in chronic wound cases especially when accompanied by pathogenic, diabetic comorbidities. Matrix metalloproteinases are associated with widespread pathological ailments, and the selective inhibitors for metalloproteinases can be of great interest in wound healing strategies. In the present research study, six constituents of Symplocos racemosa Roxb were evaluated for the docking aptitudes on human matrix metalloproteinase MMP 2 (PDB ID: 1QIB) and MMP 9 (PDB ID: 4H1Q) utilising Autodock Vina followed by the visualisation using Discovery studio (DS). The Pymol was used to generate the poses and the best binding pose was chosen for the docking aptitudes. 2D interactions and the 3D poses of the docked complex were accomplished using DS and LigPlot + software respectively. Working on SWISS ADME and OSIRIS software accomplished the physicochemical characteristics, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, molecular properties, bioactivity score, and toxicity predictions. The molecule's physiochemical investigations discovered that all of the ligands comply with Lipinski's rule of five except compound 6, which deviated with two violations. Docking studies against 4H1Q revealed that compounds 1, 3, 5 and 6 exhibited maximum interactions with the target protein, with the free binding energies of -8.3 kJ Mol-1, -9.3 kJ Mol-1, -7.2 kJ Mol-1 and -11.0 kJ Mol-1 respectively. In case of the 1QIB target, compounds 1, 3 and 6 displayed remarkable binding energies of -8.7 kJ mol-1, -9.0 kJ mol-1 and -8.8 kJ mol-1. Bioactivity prediction study revealed that all of the selected Phytoconstituents displayed incredible Bioactivity scores. None of the selected chemical compounds was found to be irritant to the skin as discovered by toxicity studies. The contacts of the ligand-protein complex during the simulation studies revealed that the H-bond interactions of the ligands with LEU188, ALA189, GLN402, ARG420, MET422, PRO421, and ARG424 of 4H1Q were stable for more than 30% of the simulation time. It was thus concluded that the tested compounds predominantly compounds 1, 5 and 6 might rank among the vital supplementary lead drugs in chronic wounds and healing complexities. It is also worth noting the potential aptitude of the compound 3, however, its toxicity concern must be considered.

[PMID: 36286150 PMCID: PMC9601477 DOI: 10.3390/gels8100647] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Revised: 09/29/2022] [Accepted: 10/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Hydrogels based on natural, biodegradable materials have gained considerable interest in the medical field due to their improved drug delivery profiles and tissue-mimicking architecture. In this regard, this study was devoted to the preparation and characterization of new physically crosslinked hydrogels based on carboxymethyl cellulose and an unconventional crosslinking agent, phytic acid. Phytic acid, in addition to its antioxidant and antibacterial effects, can improve the biological properties and stability of gels, without adding toxicity. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, rheological studies and thermal analysis confirmed the hydrogel formation. The influence of the ratio between the cellulose derivative and the crosslinker upon the morphological structure and water uptake was evidenced by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and swelling measurements in simulated body fluids. Furthermore, procaine was entrapped within the hydrogels and used as a model drug for in vitro studies, which highlighted the dependence of the drug release on the phytic acid content of the matrix. The materials demonstrated antibacterial effects against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The biocompatibility was assessed on fibroblast cells, and according to our results, hydrogels can improve cell viability highlighting the potential of these systems as therapeutic scaffolds for skin tissue engineering.

iNOS Enzymes as Anti-Inflammatory. LETT DRUG DES DISCOV 2022. [DOI: 10.2174/1570180819666211227162950] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Background:
Because the inflammatory pathway is triggered by the enzymes cyclooxygenase-
2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), inhibitors, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory
drugs (NSAIDs), are needed, although these have side effects. Therefore, the discovery and development
of natural medicine as a lead compound are needed. The gorgonian corals have been reported to contain
cyclic diterpenes with anti-inflammatory activities. The specific anti-inflammatory inhibitor potential has
not been reported regarding these secondary metabolites, whether in COX-2 or iNOS. Thus, the in silico
method is the right alternative.
Objective:
This study aimed to determine the potency of fifteen terpenes of the various gorgonian corals
to COX-2 and iNOS enzymes as an anti-inflammatory.
Methods:
Molecular docking was performed using ChemDraw Ultra 12.0, Chem3D Pro 12.0, Biovia
Discovery Studio 2016 Client®, Autodock Tools 4.2, prediction pharmacokinetics (Pre-ADMET), and
oral administration (Lipinski rule of five).
Results:
Potential terpenes based on ΔG (kcal/mol) and Ki (nM) to COX-2 were gyrosanol B (-10,32;
27,15), gyrosanol A (-10,20; 33,57), echinolabdane A (-9,81; 64,76). Only nine terpenes were specific to
COX-2 active sites, while for iNOS were palmonine F (-7.76; 2070), briarenol C (-7.55; 2910), and all
test compounds binding to the iNOS active sites. Pre-ADMET prediction obtained that HIA was very
excellent (70–100%), Caco-2 had moderate permeability (4–70 nm sec-1), and PPB had strong binding (>
90%). Eight terpenes qualified for the Lipinski rule of five.
Conclusion:
iNOS was a specific target for terpenes based on the free energy of binding (ΔG).

Abstract
It is reported that various fungi have been used for medicine and edible foods. The tropical Trametes genus is popular and well-known in Vietnam for its health effects and bioactivities. In this study, the fruiting bodies of the edible fungi T. cubensis and T. suaveolens were collected in Vietnam. The preliminary bioactivity screening data indicated that the methanol extracts of the fruiting bodies of T. cubensis and T. suaveolens displayed significant inhibition of superoxide anion generation and elastase release in human neutrophils. Therefore, the isolation and characterization were performed on these two species by a combination of chromatographic methods and spectrometric analysis. In total, twenty-four compounds were identified, and among these (1-3) were characterized by 1D-, 2D-NMR, and HRMS analytical data. In addition, the anti-inflammatory potentials of some purified compounds were examined by the cellular model for the inhibition of superoxide anion generation and elastase release in human neutrophils. Among the isolated compounds, (5,14), and (19) displayed significant anti-inflammatory potential. As the results suggest, the extracts and isolated compounds from T. cubensis and T. suaveolens are potential candidates for the further development of new anti-inflammatory lead drugs or natural healthy foods.

Abstract
Cissus rotundifolia has been reported to possess various biological activities such as anti-diabetic, anti-fertility, anti-hyperlipidemic, anti-malarial, anti-osteoporotic, and anti-parasitic activities. Therefore in the present study, eleven selected constituents of Cissus rotundifolia which includes aconitic acid, astragalin, acteoside, aliospiroside A, beta amyrin, bergenin, formononetin, gallic acid, isovitexin, isoorientin, and isoquercitrin were studied on the docking behavior of human neutrophil elastase (HNE), matrix metalloproteinases (MMP 2 and MMP 9), and tyrosinase by using PatchDock method. Furthermore, molecular physicochemical, bioactivity score/drug-likeness, ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion), and toxicity analyses were also carried out using Molinspiration, Swiss ADME, and ProTox-II methods, respectively. The molecular physicochemical investigation showed that three ligands such as acteoside, aliospiroside A, and isoorientin have three violations for Lipinski's rule of five. Similarly, ADME analysis one ligand (formononetin) predicated to have high blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability effect. The docking studies showed that isovitexin exhibited the highest atomic contact energy (-341.61 kcal/mol) for human neutrophil elastase (HNE), more over alliospiroside A has shown maximum atomic contact energy for both matrix metalloproteinases (MMP 2 [-618.00 kcal/mol] and MMP 9 [-634.73 kcal/mol]). Furthermore, isoquercitrin has exhibited the highest atomic contact energy (-145.70 kcal/mol) for tyrosinase. Thus, the present investigation outcome provides new knowledge in understanding eleven Cissus rotundifolia constituents as possible novel inhibitors against HNE, MMP 2, MMP 9, and tyrosinase.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a group of zinc-dependent metalloendopeptidases that are responsible for the degradation, repair, and remodeling of extracellular matrix components. MMPs play an important role in maintaining a normal physiological function and preventing diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Natural products derived from plants have been used as traditional medicine for centuries. Its active compounds, such as catechin, resveratrol and quercetin, are suggested to play an important role as MMPs inhibitors, thereby opening new insights into their applications in many fields, such as pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries. This review summarises the current knowledge of plant-derived natural products with MMP-modulating activities. Most of the reviewed plant-derived products exhibit an inhibitory activity on MMPs. Amongst MMPs, MMP-2 and MMP-9 are the most studied. The expression of MMPs is inhibited through respective signaling pathways, such as MAPK, NF-κB and PI3 kinase pathways, which contribute to the reduction in cancer cell behaviors, such as proliferation and migration. Most studies have employed in vitro models, but a limited number of animal studies and clinical trials have been conducted. Even though plant-derived products show promising results in modulating MMPs, more in vivo studies and clinical trials are needed to support their therapeutic applications in the future.

Abstract
We evaluated the effect of phytic acid on matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)- or cysteine cathepsin (CC)-mediated dentin degradation. Demineralized dentin beams were divided into five groups (n = 12) and treated with 1%, 2%, or 3% phytic acid or with 37% phosphoric acid. Untreated demineralized beams served as controls. After incubation for 1 or 3 wk, dry mass loss was determined and aliquots of incubation media were analysed for cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen (ICTP) fragments for MMP-mediated and c-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) for cathepsin-k-mediated degradation. The direct effect of phytic acid was evaluated using MMP activity assay. Data were analysed using repeated-measures anova. ICTP releases with 1% and 2% phytic acid treatment were statistically significantly lower than those following phosphoric acid treatment at 3 wk. The CTX release for phytic acid-treated beams at 3 wk was not significantly different from that of untreated control beams, but it was significantly lower than that of phosphoric acid-treated beams. Their MMP activities at 3 wk were not significantly different from those of the controls but they were significantly lower than those seen for phosphoric acid-treated beams. Compared to phosphoric acid, phytic acid treatment resulted in a reduced dentinal host-derived endogenous enzymatic activity and collagen degradation.

Abstract
Consumption of pigmented rice as a staple food is rapidly increasing due to their healthy prospective and considered as functional food ingredients. Greater interest has been shown in many color rice varieties due to their multiple biological activities. The phenolic compounds have been found to consist of anthocyanidins, ferulic acid, diferulates, anthocyanins and polymeric proanthocyanidins. Anthocyanin is located in the bran layers of the rice kernel, while phenolic acids are mainly present in the bran layers of rice, existing as free, conjugated and bound forms. Keeping in view the several health benefits associated with the functional ingredients, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidative and anticancer effects, pigmented rice is considered as a functional food and food ingredient in many Asian countries. The application and incorporation of bran into food products for the preparation of functional foods is increasing. Within the scope of this review, we highlighted the significant bioactive compounds from pigmented rice varieties and their potentials for medicinal and nutraceutical ingredients. The information provided from this could be of high benefit to the functional food industry and further research advance medicinal products.

Abstract
Inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6; phytic acid) is considered as the second messenger and plays a very important role in plants, animals, and human beings. It is the principal storage form of phosphorus in many plant tissues, especially in dry fruits, bran, and seeds. The resulting anion is a colorless species that plays a critical role in nutrition and is believed to cure many diseases. A fluoresceinated aminohexanol tethered inositol hexakisphosphate (III) had been synthesized earlier involving many complicated steps. We describe here a simple two-step synthesis of (III) and its characterization using different techniques such as matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry, tandem mass spectrometry, and Fourier transform infrared, ultraviolet-visible, ultraviolet-fluorescence, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopies. The effect of (III) has been investigated in the model systems, Arabidopsis thaliana and Drosophila melanogaster. Using Schrodinger software, computational studies on the binding of (III) with the protein 2P1M (Auxin-receptor TIR1-adaptor ASK1 complex) has revealed strong binding propensity with this compound. These studies on the fluoresceinated tethered phytic acid could have far reaching implications on its efficacy for human health and treatment of diseases (cancer/tumor and glioblastoma) and for understanding phosphorous recycling in the environment, especially for plant systems.
