Abstract

Hypertension is an abnormally high blood pressure condition that is the leading cause of preventable cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, and cognitive impairment. In the case of hypertension, repressing the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) expression has been shown to be an effective method of controlling hypertension by inhibiting the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. Captopril is the most commonly used ACE inhibitor. It simultaneously inhibits the conversion of angiotensin I to the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II and the vasodilator peptide bradykinin. Sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) on the other hand, is used in traditional Indian and Chinese medicine to treat a variety of diseases, including hypertension. The study aimed attempts to investigate the potency of 6 major compounds found in sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) extract, as an anti-hypertension therapy. The analysis demonstrates that Ocimum basilicum L., extract is effective as an anti-hypertension therapy because it contains several compounds that may interact with ACE and inhibit its activity. The molecular docking analysis and drug-likeness prediction indicate that camphor could be a potential drug candidate because it does not violate the Lipinski rule, has a high Gastrointestinal (GI) absorption, a high affinity to interact with ACE, and a similar interaction site to the ACE-Captopril interaction.Keywords: ACE; Holly basil; Hypertension; Molecular docking

Abstract

Uric acid is the final product of purine metabolism that will be excreted through urine, feces, and sweat. Excessive production of uric acid can cause hyperuricemia, known as gout. The skin of shallots (Allium cepa L.) is one of the household wastes that are very rarely used by the community. Ethanol extract of shallot skin (EESS) was tested for phytochemical screening and anti-hyperuricemia activity using potassium oxonate. Mice were divided into five groups (Allopurinol, Na-CMC, EESS 200 mg/kg BW, 300 mg/kg BW, and 400 mg/kg BW) and uric acid levels were observed at 2-hour intervals for six hours. Phytochemical screening shows that EESS has potential compounds in the treatment of gout. Tests to reduce uric acid levels showed that EESS has better potential than allopurinol at concentrations of 300 mg/kg BW and 400 mg/kg BW after six hours of induction in reducing uric acid levels.

Abstract

Cancer stands as one of the deadliest diseases afflicting contemporary human societies, encompassing over 100 distinct forms, including oral, salivary glands, oropharynx, nasopharynx, hypopharynx, colorectal, liver, pancreas, lung, skin, breast, cervix, ovary, prostate, kidney, brain, thyroid, and leukemia cancers. At the cellular level, the uncontrolled growth of cancerous cells can disrupt the body's normal functions. Chemotherapy, a widely recognized cancer treatment, utilizes anticancer agents to target specific cancer cell lines effectively. Natural compounds are favored for their compatibility with the body, minimal harm to healthy cells, and easy extraction from natural sources. These natural compounds and their derivatives hold promise for cancer therapy, boasting diverse structural and pharmacological characteristics. Additionally, chemical modifications can enhance their anticancer properties. This review explores the anticancer potential of terpenoids, flavonoids, alkaloids, xanthones, and epoxides, as well as elucidates their molecular mechanisms, such as their antiproliferative, apoptotic, antiangiogenic, and antimetastatic actions. Furthermore, the effect of the functional group on the anticancer activity through the structure-activity relationship will be discussed in detail, supported by molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulations. Combining experimental in vitro and in vivo assays with computational in silico assays significantly helps us understand how we shall fight cancer diseases in the modern era.

Abstract

Bacterial infections pose significant threats to human health, particularly due to the rise of antibiotic-resistant strains. Identifying new sources of effective antibiotics is therefore crucial for combating these resistant pathogens. This study aims to isolate novel Streptomyces species and profile their secondary metabolites through extraction and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) analysis. Furthermore, the antibacterial activity of the extract containing the secondary metabolites was assessed through the in vitro agar well diffusion method and supported by the molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, and drug-likeness analysis. Sediment samples were collected from mangrove forests in Yogyakarta. The bacteria were then isolated, purified, and characterized using 16S rRNA sequencing. The isolates were then cultured to enrich the secondary metabolites, and their secondary metabolites were extracted using methanol and dichloromethane solvents in a 1:1 volume ratio. The results showed that the isolated bacteria of Streptomyces sp. were obtained with a 95.44% similarity rate, which produced several secondary metabolites. The in vitro antibacterial assay of the extract resulted in an inhibition zone of 14, 14, and 15 mm against Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli, respectively. The molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulations for 100 ns revealed that compound SB236057A could inhibit the function of thymidylate kinase protein through a carbon-hydrogen bond with Glu37 residue. Furthermore, drug-likeness analysis showed that the secondary metabolites of Streptomyces sp. exhibited preferable drug-likeness and pharmacokinetic properties. This research focuses on the understanding of microbial biodiversity in mangrove sediments, particularly focusing on the genus Streptomyces and its potential to produce novel antibiotics.

Abstract

Breast cancer is a disease that significantly contributes to global women death. The study aims to conduct in vitro activity testing and assessment with a bioinformatics approach using a pharmacological network of bioactive compounds from bangun-bangun (Coleus amboinicus) leaves extract as a breast cancer drug. The methods used are extraction of bioactive compounds by maceration and partition, identification and analysis of bioactive compounds using the Liquid Chromatography High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (LC-HRMS) instrument, cytotoxic testing of breast cancer cells (MCF-7) and normal cells (CV-1) with the MTT method, and assessment with a bioinformatics approach through a network pharmacology. The results of the cytotoxic test of ethyl acetate extract provided better activity with IC50 value of 102.30 and 457.09 µg/mL against MCF-7 cancer cells and CV-1 normal cells. The selectivity index value of 4.23 indicates the potential for further development in the treatment of breast cancer. The results of the analysis of chemical compound content show various types of potential bioactive compounds as breast cancer anticancer; assessment of the bioinformatics approach through networks pharmacology with pathways in cancer provides predictions of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) protein as the main therapeutic mechanism target in breast cancer treatment. This study provides initial information for further research on testing and utilizing bioactive compounds from C. amboinicus leaves as an alternative treatment for breast cancer.

Abstract

Breast cancer is a serious disease that occurs in women and contributes to the highest mortality compared to other types of cancer. This study aims to synthesize curcumin analog compounds ((3E,5E)-1-benzyl-3,5 bis (3 (benzyloxy)benzylidene) piperidin-4-one), test them in vitro against various breast cancer cells (T47D, HER-2, MCF-7, and 4T1) and normal cells (vero cells), and study their molecular docking. Synthesis was carried out by reacting 3-benzyloxybenzaldehyde with N-benzyl-4-piperidone catalyzed by 5% KOH at room temperature; in vitro testing was carried out using the Microculture Tetrazolium Technique Assay method, ADMET analysis with an online database server, and molecular docking studies in Autodoc Vina. The synthesis results obtained yellow solid powder with a yield of 65.85%, characterization with TLC gave black fluorescence (Rf 0.63), melting point 114-116oC, TLC scanner one peak (100%), retention time 0.65 minutes, 1H &13C-NMR analysis showed the molecular formula C40H35NO3, moderate activity against 4T1 breast cancer cells and inactivity on T47D, HER-2, and MCF-7 cancer cells, and did not show cytotoxicity to normal cells (vero cells). ADMET predictions from Lipinski's five rules contained two parameters that did not meet, namely molecular weight and log P value. Molecular docking studies were carried out on estrogen receptor protein (ER)-α (PDB ID: 2ERT), which showed a binding affinity energy of -8.7 kcal/mol and -7.1 kcal/mol of the native ligand. Further research and development is needed on synthetic curcumin analog compounds to increase their activity value against breast cancer by paying attention to Lipinski's five rules to obtain compounds with better potential activity and ADMET.
