Probing the origins of human acetylcholinesterase inhibition via QSAR modeling and molecular docking
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease which leads to the gradual loss of neuronal cells. Several hypotheses for AD exists (e.g., cholinergic, amyloid, tau hypotheses, etc.). As per the cholinergic hypothesis, the deficiency of choline is responsible for AD; therefore, the inhibition of AChE is a lucrative therapeutic strategy for the treatment of AD. Acetylcholinestera...
متن کاملProbing the origins of aromatase inhibitory activity of disubstituted coumarins via QSAR and molecular docking
This study investigated the quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) of imidazole derivatives of 4,7-disubstituted coumarins as inhibitors of aromatase, a potential therapeutic protein target for the treatment of breast cancer. Herein, a series of 3,7- and 4,7-disubstituted coumarin derivatives (1-34) with R1 and R2 substituents bearing aromatase inhibitory activity were modeled as a...
متن کاملInhibition of acetylcholinesterase by two genistein derivatives: kinetic analysis, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation
In this study two genistein derivatives (G1 and G2) are reported as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), and differences in the inhibition of AChE are described. Although they differ in structure by a single methyl group, the inhibitory effect of G1 (IC50=264 nmol/L) on AChE was 80 times stronger than that of G2 (IC50=21,210 nmol/L). Enzyme-kinetic analys...
متن کاملSpectroscopic, Docking and Molecular Dynamics Simulation Studies on the Interaction of Etofylline and Human Serum Albumin
The purpose of this study is to investigate the interaction of Etofylline as an established drug for asthma remedy, with the major transport protein in human blood circulation, the human serum albumin (HSA). In this respect, the fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy techniques, along with the molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation methods were employed. Analysis of ...
متن کاملModeling of substrates sorption into acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase active sites using molecular docking method
Cholinesterases (ChE) acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) are capable for hydrolyzing esters. Our previous structure-activity analysis of ChE substrates showed that extended conformation of substrate choline moiety is productive for hydrolysis by AChE and its semi-folded conformation is productive for hydrolysis by BChE. The formation of activated complex between ChE an...
