Abstract Xanthine oxidase (XO) is a crucial enzyme in the development of hyperuricemia and gout. This study focuses on LWM ALPM, two food-derived inhibitors XO. We used molecular docking to obtain three systems then conducted 200 ns dynamics simulations for Apo, LWM, ALPM systems. The results reveal stronger binding affinity peptide XO, potentially due increased hydrogen bond formation. Notable changes were observed XO tunnel upon inhibitor binding, particularly with which showed thinner, longer, more twisted configuration compared ALPM. highlights importance residue F914 allosteric pathway. Methodologically, we utilized perturbed response scan (PRS) based Python, enhancing tools MD analysis. These findings deepen our understanding anti-XO could inform food-based therapeutics reducing uric acid levels minimal side effects.

Abstract Enzyme inhibition is a commonly utilized method for controlling enzymatic activity in various physiologically relevant biological systems. Herein, the selected five active antiviral drugs, abacavir, emtricitabine, lamivudine, ribavirin, and ritonavir, were assayed as inhibitors of two human isoforms metalloenzyme carbonic anhydrase ( h CA, EC 4.2.1.1) involved physiological/pathological conditions. For this aim, vitro silico studies performed to gain insights into plausible binding interactions affinities drugs within CA I II isoforms' sites. The I, an isoform some pathological conditions such retinal or cerebral edema, was moderately inhibited by these at micromolar concentrations with K s spanning from 0.49 ± 0.05 3.51 0.37 μM compared reference drug acetazolamide (AAZ, 0.19 0.01 μM). Moreover, II, promising target glaucoma, epilepsy, altitude sickness, reasonably agents, range 0.64 0.08–5.80 AAZ 0.17 Both results demonstrated significant between CAs that they can support therapeutic targets against above‐mentioned Additionally, obtained will help optimize clinical dosage regimens avoid drug–drug unexpectedly when used combination other agents.

Abstract Doxorubicin (DOX) is widely used in cancer treatment but the dose‐related toxicity of DOX on organs including liver limit its use. Therefore, there great interest combining with natural compounds antioxidant properties to reduce and increase drug efficacy. Esculetin a coumarin derivative biological encompassing anti‐inflammatory activities. In light these properties, this study was meticulously crafted investigate potential esculetin preventing doxorubicin (DOX)‐induced hepatotoxicity Sprague‐Dawley rats. The rats were divided into total six groups: control group, group (administered at cumulative dose 5 mg/kg intraperitoneally every other day for 2 weeks), E50 50 day), E100 100 day) combined groups (DOX + E100) which administered together DOX. treatments, both alone combination E50, manifested reduction catalase (CAT mRNA) levels comparison group. Notably, enzymatic activities superoxide dismutase (SOD), CAT, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) witnessed significant decreases treated Moreover, induced statistically elevation malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, coupled concurrent decrease (GSH) levels. Additionally, molecular docking studies conducted. However, further are needed confirm hepatoprotective precisely elucidate mechanisms action.
