Abstract

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presents a significant global health challenge, with its prevalence and mortality rates rising steadily. In Indonesia, Syzygium cumini (L.) Skeels, known for its flavonoid richness, has a long history in traditional medicine. However, its specific mechanisms of action against cancer, particularly in inducing apoptosis in NSCLC, have not been fully elucidated. This study utilized an in silico approach to evaluate the pro-apoptotic potential of S. cumini flavonoids against NSCLC by targeting key proteins: Bcl-2, Bax, and Caspase-3. We retrieved flavonoid structures from PubChem and protein data from the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics Protein Data Bank (RCSB PDB). The drug-likeness of these compounds was assessed using Swiss ADME, adhering to Lipinski's rule of five, while their anti-NSCLC probability was predicted using PASS Online. Molecular docking and screening were performed with PyRx, and the results were visualized using Discovery Studio. Our findings identified epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate and ellagic acid as the most promising anti-NSCLC candidates. Ellagic acid demonstrated the strongest binding affinity to Caspase-3, suggesting a potent pro-apoptotic effect. Epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate, on the other hand, exhibited the lowest binding energy across multiple target proteins, particularly Bcl-2 and Bax, indicating its broad pro-apoptotic potential. These results collectively suggest that flavonoids from S. cumini may hold significant promise as a source of novel anti-NSCLC agents, warranting further in vitro and in vivo investigations.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease after severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in developed countries including Indonesia. Drug resistance becomes major issue worldwide and needs prospective therapeutics development. Plant with medicinal properties including Physalis peruviana is one the promising object to be new anti-TB drug candidate. This study aimed to analyze the inhibitory activity of anti-TB agents from aerial parts of P. peruviana. Ligand and protein samples were obtained from PubChem and RCSB PDB, respectively. The bioactive compounds were evaluated their antibacterial prediction and drug-likeness properties throughout PASS Online and SwissADME webservers. Selected ligands then docked via PyRX and measured the output by binding affinity. Visualization of the best outputs was carried out using BIOVIA Discovery Studio. The result showed that phytofluene had the lowest binding affinity topping the isoniazid as control with -7.2 and -5.1 kcal/mol after targeting enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase (InhA) protein of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This concluded that phytofluene functioned as predictive anti-TB therapeutic candidate. Further in vitro and in vivo studies are needed to validate this outcome.

Abstract

Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease (NTD) causing by a Schistosoma japonicum parasite via Oncomelania hupensis snails. Even if the the number of cases decreases significantly, there is still drawbacks of conventional medication. Physalis peruviana is promising plant that rich phytochemicals as prospective drug candidiate of schistosomiasis. This study aimed to virtually screen the inhibitory activity of anti-schistososmiasis agents derived from P. peruviana body portion. Compound data were mined from PubChem and assessed their drug properties and target prediction using SwissADME and PASSOnline. Selected phytochemical compounds were screen the pharmacokinetics and toxicity by admetsar webserver. 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid and docosane was final filtered compounds as promising anti-schistosomiasis target. Daily dose arrangement should be confirmed through in vitro and in vivo because of the hepatoxicity characteristics of the compounds. Protein kinases of helminth projected to be next protein target of alternative therapeutics for vital roles in organism. To be concluded, 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid and docosane is functioned as anti-schistosomiasis candidates with further validation in different analyses.

Abstract

Chikungunya fever (CHIKF) is an infectious disease that has similar symptoms with dengue fever (DF). Several drugs have been offered to treat both dengue (DENV) and chikungunya virus (CHIKV). Investigating anti-CHIKF potential from nearby plants is one strategy to produce potential drug to reduce CHIKF in endemic countries. Physalis peruviana is one the promising object to be new anti-CHIKV drug candidate. This study aimed to analyze the anti-CHIKV agents from leaf parts of P. peruviana. Ligand and protein samples were collected from multiple sources. The phytoconstituents were evaluated their drug-likeness properties throughout SwissADME webservers. Selected ligands then docked via PyRX and measured the output by binding affinity. Visualization of the best outputs was carried out using BIOVIA Discovery Studio. CABS-flex was carried out to screen the RMSF of molecular dynamics activity of the best complex. The result showed that 1,2-benzenecarboxylic acid had the lowest binding affinity following suramin as control with -5.1 and -11.1 kcal/mol after targeting E2 domain protein of CHIKV. This led to the conclusion that 1,2-benzenecarboxylic acid could be forecast as predictive anti-CHIKF therapeutic candidate. Additional in vitro and in vivo studies are needed to validate this outcome.

Abstract

Dengue is caused by the dengue virus (DENV) and being prevalent in 100 tropical and subtropical countries including Indonesia. This disease is spread by Aedes mosquitoes. There is currently no clinically authorized medicine to treat the dengue fever. Physalis peruviana has ethnomedicine application and noted for its antioxidant activities. This study purpose to investigate the pharmacokinetics or ADMET of anti-DENV from leaf parts of P. peruviana. The phytoconstituents data were gathered from multiple sources. The drug property and ADMET prediction were assessed using pkCSM. Following online screening, 3,3-dimethyl-octane functioned as predictive anti-DENV therapeutic candidate. Further dry and wet lab studies are needed to validate this finding.
