متن کاملIdentification of plasmepsin inhibitors as selective anti-malarial agents using ligand based drug design.
We describe the application of ligand based virtual screening technologies towards the discovery of novel plasmepsin (PM) inhibitors, a family of malarial parasitic aspartyl proteases. Pharmacophore queries were used to screen vendor libraries in search of active and selective compounds. The virtual hits were biologically assessed for activity and selectivity using whole cell Plasmodium falcipa...
متن کاملDesign, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of new 1,4-Dihydropyridine (DHP) Derivatives as Selective Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors
As a continuous research for discovery of new COX-2 inhibitors, chemical synthesis, in vitro biological activity and molecular docking study of anew group of 1,4-dihydropyridine (DHP) derivatives were presented. Novel synthesized compounds possessing a COX-2 SO2Me pharmacophore at the para position of C-4 phenyl ring, different hydrophobic groups (R1) at C-2 position and alkoxycarbonyl groups (...
متن کاملPotential virtual lead identification in the discovery of renin inhibitors: application of ligand and structure-based pharmacophore modeling approaches.
Renin, an enzyme by cleaving angiotensinogen to angiotensin-I, controls the first and rate-limiting step of renin-angiotensin system that is associated with blood pressure. Thus Ligand and structure-based pharmacophore models were developed in this study to identify new potential leads inhibiting this rate-limiting enzyme as an efficient way to treat blood pressure. X-ray predicted binding mode...
