Inflamasi merupakan mekanisme pertahanan tubuh terhadap terhadap rangsangan berbahaya, seperti patogen, sel-sel yang rusak, senyawa beracun, atau iradiasi. Selama inflamasi dalam tubuh terdapat COX-2 mediator inflamasi yang peran meningkatkan inflamasi.  Sistem imun anti-inflamasi yang mengalami mutasi menyebabkan inflmasi meningkat. Oleh karena itu untuk menurnkannya menggunakan bioaktif alam. Asam kuinat memiliki toksisitas yang sangat rendah dan tidak memberikan efek negatif terhadap organ tubuh manusia. Asam kuinat memiliki potensi yang besar sebagai kandidat obat tertinggi dalam terapi. Akan tetapi kurangnya kajiannya. Penelitian ini bertujuan unutk memprediksi potensi serta menganalisis asam kuinat sebagai agen inflamasi dengan cara menghambat COX-2. Metode yang digunakan terdiri atas pengunduhan protein COX-2 dari protein data bank (PDB) dan asam kuinat diperoleh dari database PubChem, persiapan protein (COX-2) dan ligan (asam Kuinat) dengan program PyRx, analisis interaksi protein dan ligan menggunakan program Hex 8.0.0 dan Discovery Studio client 4.  Interaksi antara protein dan ligan menunjukan hasil positif dengan ditemukan 2 domain protein yang berikatan dengan asam kuinat.

Ten structure-based pharmacophore models of Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) inhibitors were generated by LigandScout based on COX-2 inhibitor complexes from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). The potential COX-2 inhibitors were identified from traditional Chinese medicine with the method of combinatorial screening with ten models. Based on the screening results of MDDR and the metrics of E, A% and comprehensive appraisal index (CAI), the threshold of hit frequency of molecules was defined and used to identify the active molecules from Chinese herbs. The molecules hit by not less than six pharmacophore models were taken as the screening objects of COX-2 inhibitor, and 1103 molecules were obtained.

Este estudo tem por objetivo avaliar os principais compostos que expliquem a atividade broncodilatadora da Mikania glomerata Spreng, empregando ferramentas in silico. Os metabólitos do guaco foram levantados bibliograficamente e a codificação das moléculas para a realização das predições foi obtida no site Pubchem. Realizou-se então triagem de bioatividade com os programas SwissADME, ProToxII, PASS e Molinspiration e pesquisa de alvos, com os servidores SuperPred Webserver. Após a identificação do alvo, a estrutura selecionada foi obtida pelo site Protein Data Bank (PDB) para o docking molecular com o programa GOLD. Os metabólitos da Mikania glomerata Spreng tiveram suas propriedades físico-químicas e biológicas analisadas. Os alvos para o docking molecular foram identificados e verificados para cada composto, com suas respectivas estruturas cristalografadas no Protein Data Bank (PDB). A molécula de cumarina foi selecionada pois apresentou predição de interação com o receptor muscarínico M3 (ID: 4DAJ). O docking revelou interação da cumarina com o receptor M3, o que poderia auxiliar na explicação para os efeitos broncodilatadores desta espécie vegetal. O estudo in silico do guaco, abordado neste trabalho, elegeu a cumarina como principal metabólito ativo com possível atividade broncodilatadora presente na Mikania glomerata Spreng. O docking da cumarina mostrou ancoragem desta molécula no sítio ativo do receptor muscarínico M3 devido as atividades desta espécie, assim, este marcador poderia atuar como antagonista desse receptor, apresentando possível atividade parassimpatolítica e, portanto, broncodilatadora.

Introdução: Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) é uma bactéria associada a diversas infecções, tanto na comunidade quanto em ambiente hospitalar, ocasionando desde infecção cutânea até septicemia(1). Um importante fator de virulência é a exotoxina alfa-hemolisina (α-HL), que oligomeriza e forma canais iônicos transmembranares nas células-alvo, permitindo o fluxo livre de várias espécies químicas, resultando na morte celular(2). Diversas cepas de S. aureus exibem multirresistência aos antibióticos, limitando as opções de tratamento. Os derivados tiazolidínicos podem ser uma boa alternativa para bloquear a α-HL, pois possuem amplas propriedades bioativas, como por exemplo a antimicrobiana para cepas multirresistentes, sendo eficazes contra o S. aureus e inibindo o seu crescimento(3). Objetivos: Dada a importância da busca de compostos com ação antibacteriana, via bloqueio da α-HL, este trabalho visa analisar, via docagem molecular, a interação de derivados tiazolidínicos 5-benzilideno com o canal iônico formado pela toxina. Métodos: A estrutura cristalográfica da α-HL de S. aureus foi obtida pelo Protein Data Bank (PDB) e utilizou-se o MolView para modelagem dos compostos denominados GQ294 e GQ443, posteriormente submetidos ao Avogadro 1.1.1 para minimização de energia molecular. A docagem foi realizada pelo DockThor e os resultados foram analisados utilizando o Discovery Studio Visualizer. Resultados: A partir dos resultados de docagem pelo DockThor, foi obtida uma classificação dos compostos de acordo com suas energias totais e scores de afinidade com a toxina. Os valores de energia total do GQ443 e GQ294 foram iguais a -15,152 KJ/ mol e -19,009 KJ/ mol, respectivamente. Enquanto o score de afinidade de GQ443 e GQ294 foi de -6,820 Kcal/ mol e -5,902 Kcal/ mol respectivamente. As análises obtidas a partir do Discovery Studio Visualizer demonstraram que os dois compostos interagem com a região de constrição do canal iônico, principalmente com os resíduos GLU 111 e LYS 147, sendo estas interações mediadas principalmente por ligações de hidrogênio, além de interações do tipo cátionpi, pi-alquila, pi-enxofre. Esses dados corroboram com outros trabalhos já encontrados na literatura(4). Conclusões: Os resultados indicam, preditivamente, que os compostos GQ443 e GQ294 interagem com o canal da α-HL na região de constrição, sugerindo um bloqueio de sua atividade. São necessários dados experimentais para elucidar os dados teóricos já obtidos.

Abstract: Butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L.) is a flowering plant from the Fabecea family that can grow vines. Butterfly pea flower are known to have chemical components that can act as antioxidants. This study aims to predict the potential of active compounds from methanol extract of butterfly pea flower in inhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS) based on bond affinity (∆G), the value of Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD) and their interactions. The method used was a computational method with in silico technique. The software used was Autodock Vina with visualization using the Biovia Discovery Studio Visualizer 2020. The enzyme receptor was NADPH Oxidase (NOX) obtained from Protein Data Bank and the test ligands were a chemical compound from methanol extract of butterfly pea flower. The results of the in silico study showed that the NO had a innate ligand, namely the GTP ligand which has a ∆G value of -7.3 kcal/mol, an RMSD value of 3.1111 Å and the interaction with the receptor that involves the presence of hydrogen bonds. Based on the results of the analysis of 11 test ligands, the chemical component of caffeine was predicted to have the most potential in inhibiting ROS compounds with a value of ∆G -5.4, RMSD value of 1.328 Å and had the same amino acid residue in hydrogen bonding, namely ASP118, and GLY15. The test ligand had the ability to inhibit ROS compounds with a lower level of stability than the innate ligand. Keywords: antioxidant; butterfly pea flower; in silico; NADPH oxidase, ROS
