A molecular description of lignan biosynthesis in Isatis indigotica displaying its synthetic characteristics and regulatory mechanism is great importance for the improvement production this class active compounds. To discover potential key catalytic steps genes, I. hairy roots elicited by methyl jasmonate (MeJA) were used as a source systematic variation exploring metabolic/transcriptional changes candidate genes that might play roles biosynthesis. The reprogramming modulated MeJA was...
A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor-based active ingredients recognition system (SPR-AIRS) was developed, validated, and applied to screen signal transducer activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) ligands. First, features the screening were investigated in four aspects: (1) specificity STAT3-immobilized chip, it shows that chip could be STAT3 ligands from complex mixture; (2) linearity limit detection (LOD) system, minimum recovery cycle number determined as 5 cycles; (3) saturability...
The cellular target of matrine is identified.
Abstract Accurate identification of the molecular targets bioactive small molecules is a highly important yet challenging task in biomedical research. Previously, method named DPAL (DNA‐programmed affinity labeling) for labeling and identifying cellular nucleic acids was developed. Herein, applied target Alisertib (MLN8237), which specific aurora kinase A (AKA) inhibitor drug candidate being tested clinical trials cancer treatment. Apart from well‐established AKA, several potential new...
Membrane proteins (MPs) are playing important roles in several biological processes. Screening new candidate compounds targeting MPs is for drug discovery. However, it remains challenging to characterize the interactions between and small-molecule ligands a label-free method. In this study, surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based membrane protein-targeted active ingredients recognition strategy was constructed. This contains two major modules: affinity detection module ligand screening module....
Herbal medicines have long been widely used in the treatment of various complex diseases China. However, active constituents and therapeutic mechanisms many herbal remain undefined. Therefore, identification components target proteins these is a formidable task medicine research. In this study, we proposed strategy, which integrates network pharmacology with biomedical analysis surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to predict ingredients potential targets Sophora flavescens or Kushen Chinese,...
Purpose: This study aimed to identify the active components of Fuzheng Huayu (FZHY) formula and mechanism by which they inhibit viability hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) a combination network pharmacology transcriptomics. Methods: The FZHY were screened out text mining. Similarity match molecular docking used predict target proteins these compounds. We then searched STRING database analyze key enriched processes, pathways related diseases proteins. relevant networks constructed Cytoscape. A...
Evaluating the biological activities of small molecules represents an important part drug discovery process. Cell membrane chromatography (CMC) is a well-developed chromatographic technique. In this study, we have developed combined SMMC-7721/CMC and HepG2/CMC with high-performance liquid time-of-flight mass spectrometry to establish integrated screening platform. These systems was subsequently validated used for evaluating activity quinazoline compounds, which were designed synthesized...
A novel "Prediction and Confirmation" (PC) strategy was proposed for characterizing phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor (PDE-5) derivatives in botanical dietary supplements (BDSs) on-site detection. Discovery Studio (DS) density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used the "Prediction" step order to estimate PDE-5 derivative structures theoretical Raman shifts without synthesizing derivatives. After 11 potentially bioactive sildenafil acquired through DS, 32 common calculated obtained DFT....
The natural product baicalein derivative baicalein-8-sulfonic acid (BaSO3H) showed significant inhibitory effects on hepatocarcinoma cells viabilities and colony formation, but its molecular target(s) mechanism were still not clearly elucidated. Using a DNA-programmed photoaffinity labeling method, we identified 12 targets that specifically bound with BaSO3H. Among these, BaSO3H c-Jun N-terminal kinase 2 (JNK2) at an affinity of 33.1 nM (Kd) to induce apoptosis autophagy in cells.
