Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic disorders characterised by chronic hyperglycaemia. DM is currently one of the top ten causes of death in humans. Chronic hyperglycaemia in DM leads to long-term damage and failure of different organs in the body. Type 2 DM (T2D) is the most common DM form, characterised by peripheral insulin resistance...

Bromodomains are evolutionarily conserved structural motifs that recognize acetylated lysine residues on histone tails. They play a crucial role in shaping chromatin architecture and regulating gene expression in various biological processes. Mutations in bromodomains containing proteins lead to multiple human diseases, which makes them attractive ...

Medicinal plants possess therapeutic potential for reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated cellular damage. Hydroxytyrosol is one of the most potent antioxidants that served as control in the current study, including other synthetic antioxidants to computationally identify the antioxidant properties of Silymarin. The sequences of the recept...

Physical, chemical and microbiological stability of the materials is affected by the rotational and translational mobility of free and hydrated water. The role of water in areas such as protein hydration and enzyme activity, food technology, lyophilization and polymers hydration is, therefore, important and can be well understood in terms of dielec...

The outbreak of severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has created a public health emergency globally. SARS-CoV-2 enters the human cell through the binding of the spike protein to human angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor. Significant changes have been reported in the mutational landscape of SARS-CoV-2 in the receptor bindi...

The changes in the SARS-CoV-2 genome have resulted in the emergence of new variants. Some of the variants have been classified as variants of concern (VOC). These strains have higher transmission rate and improved fitness. One of the prevalent were the Omicron variant. Unlike previous VOCs, the Omicron possesses fifteen mutations on the spike prote...

Leprosy is one of the chronic diseases with which humanity has struggled globally for millennia. The potent anti-leprosy medications rifampicin, clofazimine and dapsone, among others, are used to treat leprosy. Nevertheless, even in regions of the world where these drugs have been successfully implemented, resistance continues to be observed. Due t...

The cellular environment is densely crowded, confining biomacromolecules including proteins to less available space. This macromolecular confinement may affect the physiological conformation of proteins in long-term processes like ageing. Changes in physiological protein structure can lead to protein conformational disorders including neurodegenera...

The structural, composition, and molecular interaction of silver integrated zinc oxide (20 wt.% Ag/ZnO) were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR) spectrum. The XRD analysis showed the polycrystalline of small crystallite size, whereas the EDX spectrum confirmed the p...

Recent experimental evidence from our and other laboratories has strongly indicated that glutor, a piperazine-2-one derivative, which is a pan-GLUT inhibitor, displays a promising antineoplastic action by hampering glucose uptake owing to its ability to inhibit GLUT1 and GLUT3, which are overexpressed in neoplastic cells. However, the molecular mec...
