PublicationIn vitro Cytotoxic Activities, Molecular Docking and Density Functional Theory (DFT) Evaluation of Chalcone Derived Pyrazolines( 2022-04-01)
;Farooq S. ;Ngaini Z. ;Hwang S.S. ;Choo D.C.Y.Khairul W.M.Chalcone natural products modified drugs are a significant tool for the pharmaceutical industry to cure cancer. Numerous cytotoxic drugs have some drawbacks such as toxicity effect, high cost, less bioavailability, poor selectivity and drug resistance properties. The production of effective and high potent cytotoxic agents has become a challenge nowadays. For all compounds (1a–f), (2a–f) and (3a–f) in vitro cytotoxic activities were evaluated through MTS assay, where (3a) and (3e) exhibited potent activities against nasopharyngeal cell line HK-1 with IC50 7.7 mM and 7.3 mM, respectively, compared to cisplatin IC50 8.9 mM. The molecular docking interaction studies against 5IKR target protein and DFT evaluations via Gaussian 09 software exhibited the binding affinity – 10.4 kcal/mol and energy gap 4.46 eV respectively, supported the potential pyrazoline as anticancer drugs. This current study is a significant breakthrough in the drug design process that contributes to the development of new in vitro cytotoxic drugs with excellent properties. -
PublicationMicrowave Assisted Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activities of Carboxylpyrazoline Derivatives: Molecular Docking and DFT Influence in Bioisosteric Replacement( 2022-01-01)
;Farooq S. ;Ngaini Z.Khairul W.M.Chalcone is a naturally derived compound which has well-known for its antimicrobial potency. Different factors reduced the efficiency of drug derivatives effective drugs always remain in demand. In this present work, bioisosteric replacement of carboxyl group is described in 1a–h, 2a–h, 3a–h and 4a–h) via microwave-assisted synthesis with excellent yields (46.76–94.59%). The antimicrobial evaluation against S. aureus depicted excellent inhibition of 1b, 1h and 3a–h with higher inhibition zones (11–18 mm) compared to that of ampicillin (11 mm). The structure-activity relationship was supported by molecular docking studies of 1b and 3h on S. aureus 4-pql protein with the binding affinity of −6.7 and −7.8 kcal/mol respectively. The DFT studies depicted the energy gap (ΔE) values 4.12 eV and 4.48 eV for compounds 1b and 3h, respectively. The presence of electron-withdrawing group (EWG) of fluorine substituent on the pyrazoline network has increased the antimicrobial activity as compared to chalcone derivatives. This study is profitable to medicinal industries in designing new drugs that benefit mankind. (Figure presented.). -
PublicationIn vitro antimicrobial activities, molecular docking and density functional theory (DFT) evaluation of natural product-based vanillin derivatives featuring halogenated azo dyes( 2023-01-01)
;Ngaini Z. ;Hissam M.A. ;Mortadza N.A. ;Abd Halim A.N.Chemical modification of active scaffolds from natural products has gained interest in pharmaceutical industries. Nevertheless, the metabolites extraction is time-consuming while the lead is frequently mismatched with the receptor. Here, the diazo coupling approach was introduced to generate a series of vanillin derivatives featuring halogenated azo dyes (1a-h). The vanillin derivatives showed effective inhibition of S. aureus (7-9 mm) and E. coli (7-8 mm) compared to the parent vanillin, while 1b had the highest inhibition zone (9 mm) against S. aureus comparable to the reference ampicillin. The presence of N = N, C = O, -OH, -OCH3 and halogens established strategic binding interactions with the receptor. The potential vanillin-azo as an antimicrobial drug was supported by in silico docking with penicillin-binding proteins and DFT (using Gaussian 09) with binding affinity −7.5 kcal/mol and energy gap (Egap) 3.77 eV, respectively. This study represents a significant advancement in drug discovery for effective antibiotics with excellent properties.
