Abstract

Hexacyclinic acid has shown promising pharmacological activities, yet its molecular mechanisms and therapeutic potential remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to identify potential disease targets and elucidate the mechanism of action of hexacyclinic acid using an integrated computational approach. We employed network pharmacology analysis to predict potential targets and pathways of hexacyclinic acid using SuperPred and Swiss Target server, followed by protein-protein interaction network construction via STRING database. Pathway enrichment analysis was performed using ShyniGO and DAVID databases. Molecular docking studies were conducted using AutoDock Vina to evaluate binding affinities between hexacyclinic acid and identified target proteins. Binding poses and interactions were visualized using Biovia Discovery Studio Visualizer. Disease prediction analysis identified osteoarthritis as the most promising target, with the IL-17 signaling pathway emerging as the most significant KEGG pathway. TNF-α and IL-1β were identified as key molecular targets within this pathway. Molecular docking simulations corroborated these findings, revealing favorable binding energies between hexacyclinic acid and TNF-α (-8.62 kcal/mol) and IL-1β (-8.76 kcal/mol). These results suggest that hexacyclinic acid may exert its anti-osteoarthritis effects by modulating the IL-17 signaling pathway, particularly through interactions with TNF-α and IL-1β. The strong binding affinities observed indicate a potentially high efficacy of hexacyclinic acid in targeting these inflammatory mediators. These results have significant clinical implications, potentially leading to the development of new therapeutic strategies for osteoarthritis management with reduced side effects compared to current treatments. Future research should focus on experimental validation through in vitro and in vivo models to confirm these computational predictions and establish hexacyclinic acid as a viable candidate for clinical development

Abstract

Aluminium(III)-tartrate (Al-T) complex is a compound that commonly used as mordent in textile dyeing. This complex is soluble in hot water; thus, information on the isolation of crystallised Al-T is limited. Isolation of crystallised Al-T is needed to gain a high purity complex for further application in the textile industry. This study aims to synthesize and isolate crystalline complex of Al-T. Hydrothermal method was used to obtain the targeted complex. Effects of tartrate precursor and Al(III):tartrate mol ratio in the synthesis of Al-T complex were also investigated. The synthesis was done at 150 °C for 24 hours in several Al(III):tartrate mol ratios (1:2, 2:1, and 2:3) using two different tartrate precursors, namely L-tartaric acid and KNa-tartrate. The synthesized complexes were identified by infrared spectroscopy and powder-XRD analyses, and then further characterised by UV Vis - DRS, DTA-TGA, and SEM. Experimental data shows that the mol ratio affects the precipitation of the Al-T complex, in which a white crystalline solid was only precipitated out from the 2:1 reaction by both tartrate precursors. Different tartrate precursors used in the synthesis may alter the crystallization and result in an Al-T complex with slightly different thermal decomposition profile, UV-Vis DRS spectra profile, and different yield due to the different nature of the tartrate precursor. This finding is expected to support the possibility of Al-T mass production as mordent in textile dyeing

Abstract

UVA and UVB radiation from sunlight may lead to erythema and skin cancer. Those risks can be reduced by using photoprotective agents. Sunscreen is a photoprotective agent that successfully protects the skin from ultraviolet radiation. However, the active ingredients containing synthetic chemicals can hurt the skin. This review provides knowledge regarding using lignin compounds obtained from biomass waste as photoprotective agents that have been investigated for performance. The method of study applied is a literature review of original research conducted within the last ten years. Data were searched using the keywords biomass waste, photoprotective, and sunscreen on the Pubmed and Google Scholar websites. The results showed that lignin can be found in varying levels of biomass waste, such as banana stems, coconut shells, corn stalks, rice straws, and others. Delignification of lignin from biomass can be accomplished using basic solvents, acidic solvents, organosolvents, and Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES). The delignification procedure using DES is considered more environmentally friendly and less toxic. The higher the lignin concentration in the cream, the greater the SPF value. This is because lignin contains phenolic, ketone, and other chromophore functional groups capable of absorbing UV radiation. Furthermore, converting lignin molecules into nanoparticles and modifying their chemical structure may enhance the SPF value of lignin-containing creams. The addition of phenolic hydroxyl auxochrome groups and catechol units to the lignin molecule was found to increase the SPF value of lignin. It may be concluded that lignin can be utilized as a photoprotective agent, and biomass waste can be transformed into high-value cosmetic products.
