Evaluating the anticancer effects of compounds from Celastrus hindsii Benth. on liver cancer using molercular docking method
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To evaluate the inhibitory effects on human multidrug resistance protein 1 (hMRP1) of 41 compounds isolated from Black Plum through previously published studies.
Subjects and methods: Molecular docking screening were conducted using Autodock Vina software. The Lipinski's rule of five was employed to assess drug-likeness properties of compounds with lower docking scores than the reference compound. Pharmacokinetic-toxicity parameters of drug-like compounds were evaluated using pkCSM tool.
Results: Results indicated two compounds, Triptobenzene A and (−)–Epiafzelechin, with significantly low binding energies (∆G = -6.6 kcal/mol and -6.5 kcal/mol) after screening. Lipinski analysis revealed drug-like properties for both compounds. Predicted pharmacokinetic-toxicity parameters also suggested excellent gut absorption and non-toxicity for these compounds. Biological activity estimation indicated moderate to good activity for both compounds.
Conclusions: Therefore, these two compounds Triptobenzene A and (−)–Epiafzelechin have the potential to become future therapeutics for liver cancer
