Abstract

Diabetic neuropathy, a painful complication of diabetes mellitus, may potentially be treated with compounds found in cocoa pods. This study investigates the interactions of various flavonoids (catechin, epicatechin, quercetin, luteolin, apigenin, naringenin, and procyanidin) contained in the cocoa pod to the Canonical Transient Receptor Potential (TRPC6) receptor. Molecular docking, facilitated by Autodock software, was employed to predict the binding affinities of these compounds to TRPC6. This involved preparing the molecular structures of the flavonoids and the TRPC6 protein for simulation. The simulation provided insights into the binding efficiencies and interaction energies between the flavonoids and TRPC6. The findings indicate that procyanidin and quercetin exhibit the highest binding energies, at -7.15 kcal/mol and -6.37 kcal/mol, respectively. Procyanidin interacts with the amino acid residues Ala508, Arg609, Arg758, Asn765, Asp530, Glu512, His446, and Met505, while quercetin binds to Arg758, Asp530, Glu512, and Glu524. These results highlight the potential of quercetin and procyanidin as candidates for the development of TRPC6-targeted treatments for diabetic neuropathy. This study lays the groundwork for the creation of new, effective, and safe diabetic neuropathy medications.

Abstract

Kaempferia galanga L. rhizomes contain ethyl trans-p-methoxycinnamate as a major secondary metabolite compound and biomarker. Various extraction methods with different solvents can isolate ethyl trans-p-methoxycinnamate with potential bioactivities. This paper reported the isolation of ethyl trans-p-methoxycinnamate from two varieties of K. galanga L. rhizomes by maceration in n-hexane. The small and large varieties of K. galanga samples produced ethyl trans-p-methoxycinnamate in 1.43% and 1.84% yields, higher than other methods and polar solvents of previous research. Structural elucidation of the obtained ethyl trans-p-methoxycinnamate was performed by FTIR, MS, and 1H NMR spectroscopies.

Abstract

Breast cancer poses a significant global health challenge, with a notable prevalence in Indonesia. Given the intricate nature of breast cancer progression and classification, precise treatment strategies are imperative, particularly targeting signaling pathways like PI3K/AKT, pivotal in cell growth, proliferation, survival, and apoptosis. Bioactive compounds from the Strychnine tree demonstrate potential in enhancing apoptotic effects and inhibiting breast carcinogenesis. This potential is explored through in silico studies. This research aims to analyze potential targets of Strychnine tree compounds, along with binding energy and stability between ligands and receptors. Employing bioinformatics target analysis, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation, the study reveals AKT1 as a potential target of Strychnine tree compounds. These compounds inhibit AKT1 at both active and allosteric sites, displaying notably low binding energy scores. For example, brucine exhibits a binding energy of -10.83 kJ/mol at the active site, surpassing the standard capivasertib. However, lupeol, with a binding energy of -11.14 kJ/mol, falls short of the MK-2206 standard at the allosteric site. Molecular dynamics simulations expose fluctuations in parameters like RMSD, RMSF, and binding energy within the initial 5 ns. In conclusion, Strychnine tree compounds, such as brucine and lupeol, showcase potential AKT1 inhibition at both active and allosteric sites, enhancing apoptotic effects. However, the stability of these compounds in binding to their receptors within the first 5 ns of the simulation warrants further investigation for prolonged interactions.

Abstract

Breast cancer remains one of the most common cancers worldwide, with VEGFR-2 (KDR) playing a key role in tumor angiogenesis. Inhibiting VEGFR-2 is a promising therapeutic strategy. Natural compounds are increasingly studied for their potential to inhibit VEGFR-2. This study aims to assess the binding affinity of 11 natural compounds (andrographolide, alpha-mangostin, pinostrobin, pinocembrin, ethyl-p-methoxycinnamate (EPMS), xanthorrhizol, galangin, gamma-mangostin, curcumin, cinnamaldehyde, and alashanoid B) to the VEGFR-2 protein through molecular docking and Lipinski's rule analysis, identifying promising candidates for breast cancer treatment. Molecular docking simulations were performed for 11 compounds and sunitinib as a control, with binding energies and interactions analyzed. The compounds were also evaluated for drug-likeness using Lipinski’s rule of five. Curcumin showed the highest binding affinity to VEGFR-2 with a binding energy of -9.9 kcal/mol, surpassing sunitinib (-9.4 kcal/mol). Key interactions were observed with active site residues Cys919 and Asp1046. All tested compounds met the criteria for oral bioavailability per Lipinski’s rules. Curcumin demonstrates potential as a VEGFR-2 inhibitor due to its favorable binding affinity and drug-like properties. Enhancing curcumin’s bioavailability is recommended for effective therapeutic application.

Abstract

Hereditary breast cancer, primarily driven by BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations, presents distinct challenges and prognostic factors compared to sporadic breast cancer. BRCA1-associated breast cancer is often triple-negative (TNBC), which has a more aggressive course and poorer prognosis. Despite this, BRCA mutation carriers exhibit higher sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy and PARP inhibitors, potentially improving outcomes. However, the risk of developing other malignancies, such as ovarian cancer and melanoma, remains elevated in BRCA mutation carriers. Studies show a significant variation in survival rates, with BRCA mutation carriers having lower overall survival compared to non-carriers. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in BRCA1/2 tumors is frequent but does not significantly alter overall survival rates. Identifying the presence of LOH can guide personalized treatment strategies, particularly the use of PARP inhibitors. The response to chemotherapy, especially platinum-based drugs, is influenced by genetic mutations such as TP53 and PTEN, which are common in TNBC. Surgical choices also impact prognosis; mastectomy may lower ipsilateral breast recurrence but does not affect overall survival. Pathologic complete response (pCR) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a critical prognostic marker, with higher rates observed in BRCA mutation carriers, particularly those with TNBC. These factors collectively influence the prognosis and guide treatment strategies for hereditary breast cancer.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus remains one of the most dangerous illnesses worldwide. The PPAR-gamma protein plays a crucial role in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, making it a key target for diabetes therapy. Research into plant-derived active compounds for diabetes treatment is increasingly important. Objective: This study aims to evaluate and analyze the interaction of ferulic acid, niazirin, and bakuchiol with the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) protein using molecular docking. Methods: Molecular docking was employed to assess the interactions between ferulic acid, niazirin, bakuchiol, and the PPAR-γ protein (PDB ID: 2PRG). The analysis focused on binding free energy values, amino acid residue interactions, the number of hydrogen bonds, and bond distances, comparing these results to those of the native ligand and pioglitazone, a known anti-diabetic drug targeting PPAR-γ. Results: The binding free energies for the ferulic acid-PPAR-γ, bakuchiol-PPAR-γ, niazirin-PPAR-γ, native ligand-PPAR-γ, and pioglitazone-PPAR-γ complexes were -5.54 kcal/mol, -8.47 kcal/mol, -6.56 kcal/mol, -10.08 kcal/mol, and -9.94 kcal/mol, respectively. The amino acid residue similarity percentages with the native ligand were 18.18% for ferulic acid, 27.27% for bakuchiol, 18.18% for niazirin, and 81.82% for pioglitazone. The native ligand-2PRG and pioglitazone-2PRG complexes exhibited superior hydrogen bond numbers and shorter bond distances compared to the other compounds. Conclusion: Although bakuchiol showed the most promising interaction among the tested compounds, none surpassed the binding affinity and stability of the native ligand or pioglitazone. Further research is needed to optimize these compounds for potential anti-diabetic therapy.

Abstract

This study explores the anticancer properties of ginger (Zingiber officinale) through comprehensive bibliometric analysis of literature published from 2015 to 2024. Using PRISMA methodology, 49 relevant articles were identified from PubMed and analyzed through Biblioshiny and VOSviewer software. The International Journal of Molecular Sciences emerged as the leading publication source. Network visualization identified three major research clusters: antioxidant mechanisms, cancer biology, and phytochemical applications. Triple-negative breast cancer and colorectal cancer represent the most extensively studied malignancies. Mechanistically, ginger compounds (particularly gingerols and shogaols) demonstrate anticancer effects through multiple pathways including apoptosis induction, cell cycle arrest, anti-metastatic activity, oxidative stress modulation, and angiogenesis inhibition. While in vitro and preclinical evidence is robust, clinical translation remains limited. This analysis provides a comprehensive overview of ginger's anticancer research landscape, highlighting established mechanisms, identifying knowledge gaps, and suggesting future directions. The findings support ginger's potential as a complementary therapeutic agent and source of lead compounds for anticancer drug development, while emphasizing the need for advanced clinical investigations.
