Tea Tree essential oil (TTO) has many medical applications, including antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antiprotozoal, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. Although the concentration of TTO in a microemulsion is of economic interest, very few studies on this product have been conducted. In this study, we look at how different tea tree oil concentrations in microemulsion formulations affect susceptibility to various bacteria and fungi. TTO susceptibility in a diverse range of microbial species has now been studied using data from a previously published literature review survey. Most bacteria are resistant to TTO at concentrations as low as 1.0 percent, but mucosal skin staphylococci and micrococci, Enterococcus faecalis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa have minimum inhibitory concentrations much higher than 2 percent. TTO susceptibility in fungi has only recently been scrutinized. Fungicidal dosages range from 0.12 to 2 percent, with minimum inhibitory concentrations ranging from 0.03 to 0.5 percent and the only notable exception is Aspergillus niger, which contains fungicidal concentrations of up to 8%. The review emphasizes the importance of new antibacterial and antifungal formulations, as well as the role of natural essential oils in the discovery of new antibacterial and antifungal agents, and discusses, in brief, all constituents derived from the essential oil (tea tree) that are in preclinical and clinical development. This paper summarizes human and food-borne bacteria and fungi susceptibility to tea tree essential oils and their constituents. Among the many tested, essential oils of spices and herbs (Melaleuca alternifolia) were found to have the strongest antimicrobial properties.

HSP90 was retrieved from Protein Data Bank 1YET and 1FKB. Based on these findings, it is possible that the anticancer effects of Int A, Cordy, and Oligo substances could be due to their ability to inhibit the mTOR rapamycin binding domain and the HSP90 Geldanamycin binding domain via the mTOR and mTOR chaperone pathways. During the calculation, there were three stages: system development, energy reduction, and molecular dynamics (also known as molecular dynamics).

The struggle and race to find a cure for the disease kept medical professionals, pharmacists, and scientists on their toes. Drug discovery by de novo approach was not an option due to its obvious downside of the enormous time required for the process. Hitherto unknown in public parlance, repurposing existing drugs showed the way forward for scientists. Drug repurposing involves redefining medical use for drugs that have crossed the drug discovery process and were approved, discontinued, or shelved. Drug repurposing or repositioning has shown effective results in treating several diseases. This review traces the journey of some repurposed drugs and provides an overview of computational methods used for repurposing, which include signature mapping, molecular docking, and in silico approaches. The review also highlights repurposed drugs for cancer, one of the most dreaded diseases, and how repurposing can prove to be a boon for many types of cancers. Concerted efforts to study this modality of drug discovery are the need of the hour. The article discusses various drugs which have been successfully repurposed for the treatment of a plethora of diseases. Drug repurposing is a silver lining that can reduce the arduous journey of discovering a definitive cure for a disease and has the potential to change the landscape of the drug discovery process.\u0000","PeriodicalId":11004,"journal":{"name":"Current Drug Therapy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44015270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
