Diabetes mellitus (DM) affects over 77 million adults in India, with cases expected to reach 134 by 2045. Current treatments, including sulfonylureas and thiazolidinediones, are inadequate, underscoring the need for novel therapeutic strategies. This study investigates marine natural products (MNPs) as alternative agents targeting SIK2, a key enzyme involved DM. The structural stability of predicted SIK2 model was validated using computational methods subsequently employed structure-based virtual screening (SBVS) 38,000 MNPs. approach identified five promising candidates: CMNPD21753 CMNPD13370 from Comprehensive Marine Natural Product Database, MNPD10685 Products SWMDRR053 SWMDRR052 Seaweed Metabolite Database. compounds demonstrated docking scores ranging -7.64 -11.95 kcal/mol MMGBSA binding between -33.29 -68.29 kcal/mol, favourable pharmacokinetic toxicity profiles. Molecular dynamics simulations (MDS) revealed stronger affinity these compared ARN-3236, known inhibitor. Principal component (PC)-based free energy landscape (FEL) analysis further supported stable SIK2. These findings highlight potential leads inhibitors, warranting future vitro vivo validation.

In this study, a comprehensive analysis of the CMA2OEM-co-DVB-co-AMPS (2-(bis(cyanomethyl)amino)-2-oxoethyl methacrylate-co-divinylbenzene-co-2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid) and CMA2OEM-co-DVB-co-VIM methacrylate-co-divinylbenzene-co-vinylimidazole) terpolymers was conducted. The structural chemical properties were examined using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, frontier molecular orbital analysis, electrostatic potential (MEP) maps, 1H, 13C NMR thermochemistry surface maps (TCSM), toxicity assessments, physical properties, electron localization function (ELF), total (ESP) analyses. silico analyses, quantitative structure–activity relationship (QSAR) model used for Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (TEST) ProTox 3.0, web-based virtual laboratory, oral prediction. estimates TEST showed that both exhibited low profiles. Oral prediction emphasizes may pose greater risk compared to CMA2OEM-co-DVB-co-AMPS. addition, experimental thermal characterization these also performed. These analyses have provided significant insights into applications functional terpolymers.

Infection-related cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) pose a significant health challenge, driving the need for novel therapeutic strategies to target key receptors involved in inflammation and infection. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) show potential disrupt pathogenic processes offer promising approach CVD treatment. This study investigates binding of selected AMPs with critical implicated CVDs, aiming explore their potential. A comprehensive computational was employed assess AMP interactions CVD-related receptors, including ACE2, CRP, MMP9, NLRP3, TLR4. Molecular docking studies identified high affinities these targets, notably Tachystatin, Pleurocidin, Subtilisin A, which showed strong MMP9. Following docking, 100 ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulations confirmed stability AMP-receptor complexes, MM/PBSA calculations provided quantitative insights into energies, underscoring modulate receptor activity infection contexts. The highlights targeting infection-related pathways CVDs. These demonstrate properties models. Future research should focus on vitro vivo confirm efficacy safety, paving way clinical applications managing conditions.

Many antiparasitic drugs have become obsolete and ineffective in treating parasitic diseases. This ineffectiveness arises from parasite drug resistance, high toxicity, low efficacy. Thus, the discovery of novel agents is urgently needed to control Various strategies are employed discovery, design, development. review highlights paradigm searching for bioactive molecules produced during inter- intraspecific competition among organisms, particularly between microbes parasites, as a strategy de novo discovery. Competitive interactions occur when individuals same or different species coexist overlapping niches compete space resources. These well recognized. Therefore, released these promising targets Compelling data indicate that remain potential source because their diversity. antimicrobial producers nature yet be isolated investigated. body evidence underscores success numerous therapeutic drugs, including penicillin, β-lactams, tetracyclines, which been successfully discovered developed infectious comprehensively covers concepts, with particular focus on agents. approach will pave way identifying alternative eradicate diseases continue threaten human health.

Introduction: Snake venoms are rich sources of bioactive peptides with therapeutic potential, particularly against neurodegenerative diseases linked to oxidative stress. While the peptide fraction (<10 kDa) from Bothrops jararaca venom has shown in vitro neuroprotection, analogous fractions related species remain unexplored vivo. Methods: This study comparatively evaluated neuroprotective effects two (pf) Daboia siamensis (pf-Ds) and B. (pf-Bj) H2O2-induced stress using (PC12 cells) vivo (zebrafish, Danio rerio) models. Results: In vitro, pf-Ds (1 µg mL−1) did not protect PC12 cells cytotoxicity, unlike previously reported pf-Bj. vivo, neither nor pf-Bj (1–20 induced significant developmental toxicity zebrafish larvae up 120 h post-fertilization (hpf). The both pf were experimental models: (I) Larvae at 96 hpf exposed either or (10 for 4 h, followed by co-exposure H2O2 (0.2 mmol L−1) an additional 10 induce (4–20 model); (II) Embryos treated continuously until hpf, after which they another 24 (96–120 model). a short-term treatment model, reversed deficits metabolism locomotor activity.
