Molecular Docking Studies of Curcumin Derivatives with Multiple Protein Targets for Procarcinogen Activating Enzyme Inhibition
نویسندگان
چکیده
Curcumin derivatives which are very potent antioxidant, free radical scavenger and known inhibitor of dioxygenases have been extensively studied to explore their potential utilization in chemoprevention. The main objective of the present work is to perform a docking analysis of curcumin derivatives: Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC), Bisdemethoxy curcumin (BDC). Docking studies of these were performed using GOLD and AutoDock into a few well validated targets of anticancer therapy (COX-2, PhenolsulphoTransferases, Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), P450 and TNF-alpha). A good correlation was observed in binding affi nity of THC and BDC against the targets indicating these derivatives are potent procarcinogen activating enzyme inhibitors.

Interaction Study of 1, 3 Substituted Isatin Derivatives with Anti Inflammatory Properties with Cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 Enzymes by Molecular Docking Method
Introduction: Inflammation as the body's defense response is accompanied with various diseases. Prostaglandins are major mediators of inflammation produced by the cyclooxygenase enzymes. So inhibitors of these enzymes can be effective in treating inflammation. There are reports of inhibition of these enzymes by isatin derivatives to control inflammation. Isatin is a heterocyclic compound whose...

Dichloroacetate (DCA) is a simple and small anticancer drug that arouses the activity of the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) through inhibition of the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases (PDK1-4). DCA can selectively promote mitochondria-regulated apoptosis, depolarizing the hyperpolarized inner mitochondrial membrane potential to normal levels, inhibit tumor growth and reduce proliferati...
