简介:乳腺癌构成了重大的全球挑战,促使研究人员探索潜在治疗的新方法。材料和方法:对于体外研究,我们使用薄层色谱法(TAC)进行植物化学筛选,总抗氧化能力(TLC)测定抗氧化能力,和溶血活性测试神经菌毛(NRP)的毒性。我们进行了生物信息学分析来预测蛋白质结构,分子对接,药效团建模,和虚拟筛查来揭示与癌基因的相互作用。我们进行了200ns分子动力学(MD)模拟和MMGBSA计算,以评估复杂的动力学和稳定性。结果:我们鉴定了黑麦草叶片中的植物化学成分,包括单宁,皂苷,类固醇,和强心苷,而不存在丛枝单宁和萜类化合物。叶子含有9.4%±0.04%的生物碱和1.9%±0.05%的皂苷。甲醇提取物具有最高的产量和抗氧化能力,总黄酮含量为127.51±0.76mg/100g,总酚含量为134.39±0.589mgGAE/100g。溶血测试显示不同提取物的溶血程度不同。计算机分析显示具有与抗癌治疗相关的关键信号通路的稳定的Neuropilin复合物。不同拥有的分子对接评分(0,C-50,C-80,C-120,C-150,C-200ns)显示复合物中的强氢键,并显示-12.9,-11.6和-11.2结合亲和力(kcal/mol)以支持其稳定性。我们在200ns的MD模拟分析证实了Neuropilin复合物与信号通路蛋白PI3K的稳定性。使用MMGBSA计算的结合自由能提供了关于不同时间步长的配体效力的有价值的定量信息。这些发现强调了紫花苜蓿叶的潜在健康益处及其在靶向血管生成的抗癌治疗中的可能作用。结论:由于其生物活性化合物,Nigellasativa叶片显示出显著的医学潜力,在支持与癌症相关的器官发生过程方面表现出很强的特性。此外,研究强调了神经菌毛蛋白在抗癌治疗中的有希望的作用,证明了稳定的相互作用和作为乳腺癌靶向治疗的潜力。
Introduction: Breast cancer poses a significant global challenge, prompting researchers to explore novel approaches for potential treatments. Material and Methods: For in vitro study we used thin layer chromatography (TAC) for phytochemical screening, total antioxidant capacity (TLC) assay for antioxidant capacity, and hemolytic activity test for toxicity of
Neuropilins (NRPs). We performed bioinformatic analyses to predict protein structures, molecular docking, pharmacophore modeling, and virtual screening to reveal interactions with oncogenes. We conducted 200 ns Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations and MMGBSA calculations to assess the complex dynamics and stability. Results: We identified phytochemical constituents in Nigella sativa leaves, including tannins, saponins, steroids, and cardiac glycosides, while phlobatannins and terpenoids were absent. The leaves contained 9.4% ± 0.04% alkaloids and 1.9% ± 0.05% saponins. Methanol extract exhibited the highest yield and antioxidant capacity, with Total Flavonoid Content at 127.51 ± 0.76 mg/100 g and Total Phenolic Content at 134.39 ± 0.589 mg GAE/100 g. Hemolysis testing showed varying degrees of hemolysis for different extracts. In-silico analysis indicated stable Neuropilin complexes with key signaling pathways relevant for anti-cancer therapy. Molecular docking scores at different possesses (0, C-50, C -80, C-120,C -150, C -200 ns) revealed strong hydrogen bonding in the complexes and showed -12.9, -11.6, and -11.2 binding Affinities (kcal/mol) to support their stability. Our MD simulations analysis at 200ns confirmed the stability of Neuropilin complexes with the signaling pathways protein PI3K. The calculated binding free energies using MMGBSA provided valuable quantitative information on ligand potency on different time steps. These findings highlight the potential health benefits of N. sativa leaves and their possible role in anti-cancer treatments targeting angiogenesis. Conclusion: Nigella sativa leaves have shown significant medical potential due to their bioactive compounds, which exhibit strong properties in supporting organogenic processes related to cancer. Furthermore, studies have highlighted the promising role of
neuropilins in anticancer treatment, demonstrating stable interactions and potential as targeted therapy specifically for breast cancer.
