Spectroscopic investigation and structural simulation in human serum albumin with hydroxychloroquine/Silybum marianum and a possible potential COVID-19 drug candidate.

Tossers studied binding between HCQ/SM and HSA, inducing conformational changes, with potential therapeutic relevance for COVID-19 due to strong interaction with virus proteases. Valuable insights for pharmaceutical and biological properties.

Moringin, an isothiocyanate modulates multiple cellular signalling molecules in breast cancer cells.

Prohibitin (PHB) plays a role in breast cancer, with altered expression linked to reduced overall survival. Moringin (MG) interacts with PHB and other proteins, inducing apoptosis and inhibiting cell growth and migration. MG modulates multiple cancer-related targets in breast cancer cells.

Marein, a novel natural product for restoring chemo-sensitivity to cancer cells through competitive inhibition of ABCG2 function.

Marein from Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt can sensitize drug resistant cancer cells by inhibiting ABCG2 transporter, increasing drug accumulation, and binding to critical site F439. Potential implications for treating ABCG2-expressing tumors with chemotherapeutic drugs.
