Among these, ALS disease plays a major role in MND. The metal oxides have an essential role in neurodegenerative diseases. Cerium oxide nanoparticles have received a lot of attention in recent years as a potential future remedy for treating a variety of problems due to their redox activity, free radical scavenging capabilities, biofilm suppression, and other features. We are using molecular docking experiments to better understand the interaction of transition metal oxides (CeO2) with mutated and Non-mutated SOD1 proteins. Through the use of molecular docking studies, the structural relationship between amino acids, binding energy, and ligand efficiency was investigated. Auto-dock analysis also reveals that the CeO2 nanoparticle has significant binding energy. In this work, we synthesize a Cerium oxide/GO composite and examine its impact on mutant and non-mutant SOD1 proteins, as well as antioxidant assays (SOD3), anti-microbial activity, and CV analysis.","PeriodicalId":19599,"journal":{"name":"Oriental Journal Of Chemistry","volume":"38 20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136068033","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}

Molecular docking along with in-silico evaluation their pharmacokinetics (ADME) properties and toxicity were employed to fulfill the aim. Result shows that, all the five Citrus compounds have reasonable affinity towards cytochrome p450. However, Hesperidin shows highest affinity towards its target receptor protein i.e. -9.7 kcal/ mol, followed by Chalcone that shows the lowest affinity towards its target protein i.e. -7.4 kcal/ mol.

Additionally, the consumption of fried food is becoming increasingly popular in this region. The current study is to find out how temperature affects oils without using food of any kind. The fatty acid and antioxidant profiles of these four vegetable oils (extra virgin olive oil, Moringa oleifera oil, sunflower oil, and corn oil) have been investigated in terms of temperature during deep-frying and re-heating. In this process, an electric fryer is used for deep-frying and reheating oil without adding any kind of food. The collected vegetable oil samples were heated for six hours on five different time periods to a temperature of up to 175 ± 5 °C, and the fatty acid profiles were analysed before and after each cycle by using gas chromatography and were characterized by means of UV and FTIR techniques as well. The composition of oil fatty acids is more affected by re-heating than by deep-frying, as the results indicated. The antioxidant activity of the different oils was assessed using the diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scan; the findings revealed that, whereas antioxidant activity dropped sharply in re-heated oils, it did so gradually for deep-frying samples.","PeriodicalId":19599,"journal":{"name":"Oriental Journal Of Chemistry","volume":"21 11","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136069413","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}

In the present study, various spectroscopic investigations (UV, fluorescence, FTIR and CD) and molecular docking were performed to determine the binding constant and the other binding characteristics of the interaction between HSA and drug molecule. The binding constant obtained from the UV-spectroscopic results (0.98 x 103 M-1), revealed weak binding between the protein and linagliptin structure. Fluorescence spectroscopy results showed quenching of intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through static quenching. The binding constant value was Ksv = 1.26×10-4 M-1. In the FTIR and circular dichroism spectra minor changes were observed in peak positions and peak intensities. Molecular docking revealed that linagliptin was stabilized at site-I primarily with Pi-Pi stacking and the binding mode was similar that of R- warfarin.","PeriodicalId":19599,"journal":{"name":"Oriental Journal Of Chemistry","volume":"452 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136067507","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}

Among the various types of pollutants, industrial dyes pose a serious threat to public health. Hence, remediation of these toxic dyes from water sources has become highly essential in terms of public health. The present study focused on the use of nanoparticles synthesized using plant sources for the remediation of azo dyes such as Methyl orange (MO) Congo red (CR), Malachite Green (MG), Eriochrome Black T (EBT) under direct solar radiation. The fabrication of Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) was mediated by aqueous flower extract of Cassia alata. The synthesized nanoparticles exhibited a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) vibration at wavelength 372 nm. The FTIR analysis revealed aromatic amines and alcohols coating the surface of ZnO-NPs. The XRD analysis showed that the synthesized nanoparticles are highly crystalline and possess hexagonal wurtzite structures. The particle size measured with maximum diffraction peak using Scherrer’s equation was 9.93 nm. The SEM images showed spherical morphology. The particle size determined with Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) was 78.18 nm and the zeta potential analysis showed that the ZnO-NPs was -14.6 mV, indicating good dispersion and stability. The C.alata mediated ZnO-NPs exhibited excellent Photocatalytic degradation of azo dyes. Degradation efficiency of Methyl orange, Malachite green and Eriochrome black T are 76.65%, 65.07%, 60% respectively at 150 min. But Congo red is 72.76% at 120 min, because the Congo red was completely degraded at 120min.
