[ 1 ] - The binding assessment with human serum albumin of novel six-coordinate Pt(IV) complexes, containing bidentate nitrogen donor/methyl ligands

The interactions between platinum complexes and human serum albumin (HSA) play crucial roles in the distribution, metabolism, and activity of platinum-based anticancer drugs. Octahedral platinum (IV) complexes represent a significant class of anticancer agents that display molecular pharmacological properties different from cisplatin. In this study, the interaction between two Pt(IV) complexes ...

[ 2 ] - Molecular dynamics simulation and docking studies on the binding properties of several anticancer drugs to human serum albumin

Disposition and transportation of anticancer drugs by human serum albumin (HSA) affects their bioavailability, distribution and elimination. In this study, the interaction of a set of anticancer drugs with HSA was investigated by molecular dynamics and molecular docking simulations. The drugs' activities were analyzed according to their docking scores, binding sites and structural descriptors. ...

[ 3 ] - Molecular Interaction of Benzalkonium Ibuprofenate and its Discrete Ingredients with Human Serum Albumin

Studying the interaction of pharmaceutical ionic liquids with human serum albumin (HSA) can help investigating whether or not ionic liquid formation can enhance pharmacological profile of the discrete ingredients. In this respect, in the present work, the interactions of Benzalkonium Ibuprofenate, as a well-known active pharmaceutical ionic liquid, Benzalkonium Chloride, and also Sodium Ibuprof...

[ 4 ] - Probing the Binding of Valacyclovir Hydrochloride to the Human Serum Albumin

UV-visible and Fluorescence spectroscopic methods were employed to study the interaction of human serum albumin (HSA) with Valacyclovir Hydrochloride. Additionally, molecular dynamics and molecular docking simulations were used to visualize and specify the binding site of Valacyclovir Hydrochloride. The Stern-Volmer and van't Hoff equations along with spectroscopic observations, were used to de...
