Abstract Background: Despite the use of traditional method, Ugi reaction currently is a well-established multicomponent reaction. Chromane motif itself possesses a variety of biological functions. In order to improve its anti-tubercular activity, it is necessary to modify it accordingly. Aim: To ensure relation between in silico and in vitro study, we have carried out in vitro screening against H37Rv anti-tubercular agent. Materials and methods: Ugi four-component condensation (U-4CCRs) between 6-fluorochroman-2-carboxylic acid, various aryl aldehyde, 3,4,5-trimethoxy amine and tert-butyl isocyanide, gave N-((tert-butylcarbamoyl)(4-substitutedphenyl) methyl)-6-fluoro-N-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl) chroman-2-carboxamide. The molecular level insight of all compounds was carried out by molecular docking study against the receptor tyrosine phosphatase PtpB. All these newly synthesized compounds were screened for their anti-microbial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv to determine the MIC, IC50 and IC90 of the compound. Results: The compound 5d also shows large hydrophobic surface contact on the face of the α7–α8 (Ile 207, Phe 211, Met 206, Ile203, Phe161, Phe80, Met126, Tyr130, Val231 and Leu101) that lines one side of the entrance to the active site of the receptor. The compound 5d bind with tyrosine phosphatase PtpB with predicted docking geometric score of 4664, whereas a score of rifampicin was 6586 determined. Conclusion: From the docking studies, compound 5d, was considered to be the potent inhibitor, which gave strong supportive coordinate with the in vitro study. It is highly active against H37Rv, having MIC and IC50 value of was 70 μM and 53 μM respectively in in vitro study.

The current study accentuates the significance of performing the multiplex approach of LC-HRESIMS, biological activity, and docking studies in drug discovery, taking into consideration a review of the literature. In this regard, the investigation of antioxidant and cytotoxic activities of Trigonella stellata collected from the Egyptian desert revealed a significant antioxidant capacity using DPPH with IC50 = 656.9 µg/mL and a moderate cytotoxicity against HepG2, MCF7, and CACO2, with IC50 values of 53.3, 48.3, and 55.8 µg/mL, respectively. The evaluation of total phenolic and flavonoid contents resulted in 32.8 mg GAE/g calculated as gallic acid equivalent and 5.6 mg RE/g calculated as rutin equivalent, respectively. Chemical profiling of T. stellata extract, using LC-HRESIMS analysis, revealed the presence of 15 metabolites, among which eleven compounds were detected for the first time in this species. Interestingly, in vitro testing of the antidiabetic activity of the alcoholic extract noted an α-glucosidase enzyme inhibitory activity (IC50 = 559.4 µg/mL) better than that of the standard Acarbose (IC50 = 799.9 µg/mL), in addition to a moderate inhibition of the α-amylase enzyme (IC50 = 0.77 µg/mL) compared to Acarbose (IC50 = 0.21 µg/mL). α-Glucosidase inhibition was also virtualized by binding interactions through the molecular docking study, presenting a high binding activity of six flavonoid glycosides, as well as the diterpenoid compound graecumoside A and the alkaloid fenugreekine. Taken together, the conglomeration of LC-HRESIMS, antidiabetic activity, and molecular docking studies shed light on T. stellata as a promising antidiabetic herb.

Currently, the entire globe is under the deadliest pandemic of Covid-19 caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). At present, no specific treatment is available to combat COVID-19 infection. Euphorbia hirta (Euphorbiaceae) have been reported for a variety of biological activities, including antiviral. The present investigation aimed to identify potential phytoconstituents of the plant E. hirta from the category flavonoids and coumarins against the SARS-CoV-2 using in silico approach. The molecular docking studies were performed using two different targets of SARS-CoV-2, namely Main protease (Mpro; PDB ID: 6M2N) and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp; PDB ID: 7BW4). Based on the molecular docking study in comparison with standard drug, four compounds, namely Euphrobianin, Quercetin, 3-o-alpha-rhamnoside, Isoquercitrin, and rutin, were screened against the target Mpro. Three phytoconstituents, euphorbianin, myricetin, and rutin, were screened against the target RdRp. In the in silico toxicity studies of screened phytoconstituents, except myrectin all were predicted safe. Results of euphorbianin and rutin were found more interesting as both compounds had high binding affinity against both targets. Finally, we want to conclude that euphrobianin, quercetin 3-o-alpha-rhamnoside, isoquercitrin, and rutin could be further explored rapidly as they may have the potential to fight against COVID-19.

Piper sylvaticum Roxb. is traditionally used by the indigenous people of tropical and subtropical countries like Bangladesh, India, and China for relieving the common cold or a variety of chronic diseases, such as asthma, chronic coughing, piles, rheumatic pain, headaches, wounds, tuberculosis, indigestion, and dyspepsia. This study tested anxiolytic and antioxidant activities by in vivo, in vitro, and in silico experiments for the metabolites extracted (methanol) from the leaves and stems of P. sylvaticum (MEPSL and MEPSS). During the anxiolytic evaluation analyzed by elevated plus maze and hole board tests, MEPSL and MEPSS (200 and 400 mg/kg, body weight) exhibited a significant and dose-dependent reduction of anxiety-like behavior in mice. Similarly, mice treated with MEPSL and MEPSS demonstrated dose-dependent increases in locomotion and CNS simulative effects in open field test. In addition, both extracts (MEPSL and MEPSS) also showed moderate antioxidant activities in DPPH scavenging and ferric reducing power assays compared to the standard, ascorbic acid. In parallel, previously isolated bioactive compounds from this plant were documented and subjected to a molecular docking study to correlate them with the pharmacological outcomes. The selected four major phytocompounds displayed favorable binding affinities to potassium channel and xanthine oxidoreductase enzyme targets in molecular docking experiments. Overall, P. sylvaticum is bioactive, as is evident through experimental and computational analysis. Further experiments are necessary to evaluate purified novel compounds for the clinical evaluation.

Objective: CDK2 inhibitors are implicated in several carcinomas viz. Carcinoma of lung, bladder, sarcomas and retinoblastoma. Pyrazolopyrimidines, being purine bioisosters inhibit more than one type of kinase. In this study, we are studying some novel derivatives of 1H-pyrazolo [3,4d] pyrimidines not reported earlier. The objective of the present study is an attempt towards design and development of 1H-[3,4-] pyrazolo-pyrimidines as CDK2 inhibitors through rational drug design.Methods: The present study has been done on CDK2 structure, PDB ID, 3WBL, co-crystallized with ligand PDY from RCSB protein data bank. A series of seventeen 1H-Pyrazolo [3,4-d] pyrimidines feasible for synthesis was docked on the said CDK2 receptor using Auto Dock 4 version, 1.5.6. Outputs were exported to discovery studio 3.5 client for visual inspection of the binding modes and interactions of the compounds with amino acid residues in the active sites.Results: The results of docking studies revealed that the present series of 1H-Pyrazolo[3,4-d] pyrimidines is showing significant binding through hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic, pi and Van der waals interactions, similar to the ligand PDY. Some conserved H-bond interactions comparable to bioisosters and compounds presently under human trials were noted. Ki values predicted in silico also suggest that the series will show promising CDK2 inhibitory activity.Conclusion: The series designed and docked can be further developed by synthesis and in vitro and in vivo activity. The receptor inhibitory activity can also be checked by specific receptor assays.

A novel (COVID-19) responsible of acute respiratory infection closely related to SARS-CoV has recently emerged. So far there is no consensus for drug treatment to stop the spread of the virus. Discovery of a drug that would limit the virus expansion is one of the biggest challenges faced by the humanity in the last decades. In this perspective, testing existing drugs as inhibitors of the main COVID-19 protease is a good approach.Among natural phenolic compounds found in plants, fruit, and vegetables; flavonoids are the most abundant. Flavonoids, especially in their glycosylated forms, display a number of physiological activities, which makes them interesting to investigate as antiviral molecules.The flavonoids chemical structures were downloaded from PubChem and protease structure 6lu7 was from the Protein Data Bank site. Molecular docking study was performed using AutoDock Vina. Among the tested molecules Quercetin-3-O-rhamnoside showed the highest binding affinity (-9,7 kcal/mol). Docking studies showed that glycosylated flavonoids are good inhibitors for the covid-19 protease and could be further investigated by in vitro and in vivo experiments for further validation.
