Development of a Natural Product Rich in Bioavailable Omega-3 DHA from Locally Available Ingredients for Prevention of Nutrition Related Mental Illnesses.
(Taylor & Francis online, 2020-03-19)
Poor mental health remains a serious public concern worldwide. The most vulnerable individuals are children and adolescents in developing countries. Nutritional deficiency of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, particularly ...
Luteolin: a blocker of SARS-CoV-2 cell entry based on relaxed complex scheme, molecular dynamics simulation, and metadynamics
(Springer Nature, 2021-07-08)
Natural products have served human life as medications for centuries. During the outbreak of COVID-19, a number of
naturally derived compounds and extracts have been tested or used as potential remedies against COVID-19. ...
Ensemble-based screening of natural products and FDA-approved drugs identified potent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 that work with two distinct mechanisms
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021-06)
The recent outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for high morbidity and mortality rate across
the globe. This requires an urgent identification of drugs and other interventions to overcome this
pandemic. Computational ...
Solvent effects on host-guest residence time and kinetics: further insights from metadynamics simulation of Toussaintine-A unbiding from chitosan nanoparticle
(Springer Nature Switzerland AG., 2021-04-14)
Solvents play an important role in host-guest intermolecular interactions. The kinetics and residence time of Toussaintine-A (TouA) unbinding from chitosan was investigated by means of well-tempered metadynamics and ...
Abrogating the nsp10–nsp16 switching mechanisms in SARS-CoV-2 by phytochemicals from Withania somnifera: a molecular dynamics study
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2021-09-14)
The search for therapeutic small molecules and vaccines for Covid-19 treatment is an urgent but evolving topic. The virus has claimed over 3,782,490 lives (as of 12 June 2021), with the figure expected to rise due to the ...
