In silico studies on interactions between the human pancreatic α-amylase (HPA) enzyme with α, β, and γ-mangostin ligands has been carried out using the molecular docking method. Ligands α, β, and γ-mangostin interact through the formation of hydrogen and van der waals bonds with residues on the enzyme active side. The α-mangostin ligands form seven hydrogen and six van der waals bonds with residues involved were Trp59, Gln63, Trp96, Thr163, Thr164, Ala198, His201, Glu233, and Asp300; β-mangostin forms five hydrogen and eight van der waals bonds with residues involved were Gln63, Trp96, Thr163, Thr164, Arg195, Asp197, His201, Glu233, Asp300, and His305; while γ-mangostin forms nine hydrogen and five van der waals bonds with residues involved were Trp59, Gln63, Trp96, Thr163, Asp197, Ala198, His201, Glu233, and Asp300. The binding afinity of α, β, and γ-mangostin to the HPA obtained were -7.0; -6.6; and -7.4 kcal/mol with RMSD value were 1,850; 1,956; and 1,811 Å, respectively. The number of hydrogen bonds that can be formed was responsible to the binding affinity. Ligand γ-mangostin has potential activity as an inhibitor of HPA enzyme due to the stable complexes formation with lower binding affinity (validated with RMSD value) when compared to α and β-mangostin.

Increasing melanogenesis process causes excessive melanin synthesis resulting in darkening of the skin color. The melanogenesis process requires mealnogenesis enzymes, one of which is tyrosinase-related protein 1. One of the flavonoid compounds that has the potential as a skin lightening agent is quercetin. The antioxidant activity of quercetin plays a very important role in antimelanogenesis. This study aims to determine the affinity and molecular mechanism of quercetin on the target protein tyrosinase-related protein 1 using in silico molecular docking method. Molecular docking is carried out through stages including optimization of the structure of quercetin compounds, preparation of the target protein tyrosinase-related protein 1, validation of the molecular docking method, and docking of quercetin on the tyrosinase-related protein 1. Docking of quercetin with tyrosinase-related protein 1 produces binding energy values of -7.81 kcal/mol, while docking of native ligand with tyrosinase-related protein 1 produces binding energy values of -5.39 kcal/mol. Quercetin has a strong affinity for tyrosinase-related protein 1 which is indicated by the binding energy from the docking results. Quercetin has activity as a skin whitening agent with in silico test with molecular mechanisms through inhibition of the activity of tyrosinase-related protein 1 enzyme.  Keywords: skin whitening agent, in silico, quercetin, tyrosinase-related protein 1

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that occur by inflammation chronic which persist as a permanent symptom. That inflammatory process caused joint destruction. Production of pro-inflammatory sytokin such as Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-?) stimulate an autoimmunity. Active TNF-? plays a role in the occurrence of chronic inflammation, in which the formation of active TNF-? is regulated by TNF-? Converting Enzyme (TACE). Brazilin and brazilein are known to have anti-inflammatory activity and immunommodulator potentially as anti-rheumatoid arthritis. The purpose of this study were to determine the affinity and mechanisms of brazilin and brazilein against TACE proteins as anti-rheumatoid arthritis perfomed using molecular docking method. The study was conducted exploratively with several steps such as databases preparation of 3D structures brazilin, brazilein, TACE protein, optimization of brazilin and brazilein 3D structures, protein preparation, molecular docking method validation, and docking brazilin and brazilein in these proteins. The docking results are assessed from the binding energy and hydrogen bonds formed between brazilin and brazilein in proteins. The smaller value to the binding energy, will made the bond between brazilin and brazilein with proteins will be stronger and more stable. The results showed that brazilin and brazilein have activities as anti-rheumatoid arthritis because they are able to inhibit TACE proteins with respective bond energy values -7,24 for brazilin and – 7,59 kcal/mol for brazilein. These results show that brazilin and brazilein have the potential to inhibit inflammatory process and joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate novel compounds of isothiocyanate (ITC) based on eugenol and cinnamaldehyde derivatives as the drug candidate of Plasmodium falciparum anti-malaria using in silico method, physicochemical, pharmacokinetics, toxicity, and synthetic accessibility prediction. This present study also describes molecular docking and pharmacoinformatics of natural ITC in Moringa oleifera leaves. Methods: A series of novel ITC compounds (3, 5, and 6) were designed and analyzed with a series of natural ITC compounds (7, 8, 9, 10) for P. falciparum anti-malaria. This research is descriptive qualitative and uses the reverse molecular docking method, proving the biological activity of compounds theoretically using software and database information. Results: Molecular docking study showed that compound 6 exhibits binding affinity (-5.3 Kcal/mol) on Van der Waals interaction with the residual active site (His159, Cys25) of cysteine protease. All designed ITC compounds are obeyed the Lipinski and Veber Rule, have a well-brain penetrant character and have a medium risk for mutagenic, tumorigenic, and reproductive prediction. They are also in the simple rate of synthetic accessibility (SA) estimation. In regards to natural ITCs, they all have better assay characteristics except the SA. Conclusion: Molecular docking, physicochemical, pharmacokinetic, and toxicity studies show that methyl eugenol isothiocyanate and cinnamaldehyde isothiocyanate are promising anti-malaria compounds. Substituents of hydroxy, acetate and tetrahydropyran groups in the building block ring are suggested for better in silico profiles enhancement.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the LOX inhibitory activity, and predict the drug likeness properties of designed diacyl derivatives of phloroglucinol, using in silico method. Methods: The designed derivatives were subjected to molecular docking using AUTODOCK while the receptor used in this study was built from SWISS MODEL. Drug likeness properties of the derivatives were calculated by online programs i.e. MOLINSPIRATION and PreADMET. Results: Molecular docking study revealed that designed tHGA derivative with four-carbon chain length exhibited the best binding affinity with the docking scores of -7.26kcal/mol. Three types of binding interactions were observed between the derivatives and the receptor site i.e H-bonding, hydrophobic and Van der Waals interactions. The important amino acid residues involved in H-bonding were Gln495 and Gln697, while other amino acid residues, such as Leu754 and Ile 553, were involved in the Van der Waals interaction. The designed tHGA derivatives were mainly stabilized through hydrophobic interactions with His499, His504, Ile538, Phe557 and Val750. In silico physicochemical calculations predicted that all the designed derivatives passed the Lipinski’s Rule of 5, and have good human intestinal absorption property (HIA>70%). Further, all the designed derivatives showed moderate central nervous system absorption (0.6<BBB<2.0), except for the derivative with a longer (5-Cs) chain length. Conclusion: The findings of the present study suggested that changing the acyl and geranyl side chains of the natural product molecule, tHGA, into two acyl bearing side chains, will improve its pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic profiles.

Hyperpigmentation is caused by enhancement of melanin production that causes skin darkening. Purple sweet potato is one of the plants that is potentially developed as skin depigmentation agent because it contains anthocyanin. The most common types of anthocyanins in purple sweet potato are cyanidin and peonidin which are in vitro proven to be used as skin lightening. The objective of this study is to determine the potential of cyanidin and peonidin as skin depigmentation agent against target protein D-Dopachrome taumerase  through in silico molecular docking method. The research steps include the preparation of target protein using Chimera 1.10.1 program, optimization of cyanidine and peonidin 3D structures using Hyperchem 8 program, validation of molecular docking method, and docking of cyanidine and peonidine on target protein using Autodock 4.2 program. The bond energy between cyanidin and peonidin with the target protein D-Dopachrome taumerase are -7.75 kcal / mol and -8.38 kcal / mol. The cyanidin and peonidin bond values ??are smaller than the native ligand, suggesting that the bond between the test compound (cyanidin and peonidin) with the target protein are stronger and more stable than the native ligand, so that the affinity of the test compound was greater than the native ligand. This suggests that the cyanidin and peonidin compounds in purple sweet potato have potential as a depigmentation agent by inhibiting D-Dopachrome taumerase protein.
