Critical micelle concentration and different thermodynamic properties of all surfactants under study were measured using conductivity, density, molal volume, and refractive index techniques. The Critical micelle concentration of TBC 6, TBC 12, and TBC 18 surfactants measured from the different techniques shows an acceptable agreement. The molecular weight of the investigated surfactants was decreased with the order: TBC 18 > TBC 12 > TBC 6. An increase in the magnitudes of the association constant, Gibbs free energy of micellization, molar refraction, polarizability, and binding constant proved the effect of hydrocarbon chain length on increasing surfactant’s micellization as follows: TBC 18 < TBC 12 < TBC 6. The enhancement in surfactant properties was also indicated under the effect of different concentrations of inorganic salts (NaI, NaBr, NaCl, MnCl<sub>2</sub>, CuCl<sub>2,</sub> and CoCl<sub>2</sub>). This effect was measured using conductivity and refractive index measurements. Different salts were indicated to adsorb on head groups of micelles, leading to an increase in the degree of ionization of the surfactant solution and improved aggregation of the surfactant at lower concentrations.

Key wavelengths were selected using knowledge-based variable selection and various preprocessing methods (e.g., mean centering, orthogonal scatter correction, and principal component analysis) to minimize noise and improve model precision. XG Boost effectively enhanced computing speed and accuracy by focusing on specific spectral features rather than the entire spectrum, demonstrating its advantages in resolving complex, overlapping spectral data. The independent test results of different models demonstrated that XG Boost outperformed other methods. XG Boost achieved the lowest root mean squared error of prediction (RMSEP) and standard deviation (SD) values across all compounds, indicating minimal prediction error and variability. For PIO, XG Boost recorded an RMSEP of 0.100 and SD of 0.369, significantly better than PLS and ANN. For ALG, XG Boost showed near-perfect performance with an RMSEP of 0.001 and SD of 0.005, outperforming SVR and PLS, which had higher error rates.

Natural products, especially from marine organisms, are emerging as potential sources for new drug candidates due to their structural diversity and pharmacological properties. This study aims to discover marine natural products capable of inhibiting human aromatase by combining ligand-based and structure-based pharmacophore models for virtual screening against the Comprehensive Marine Natural Products Database. From the initial virtual screening of more than 31,000 compounds, 1,385 marine natural products were identified as possible candidates. Following initial molecular docking analysis, only four compounds managed to pass the criteria this research has introduced to confirm strong binding affinity to aromatase. All four compounds yielded acceptable binding affinities, with CMPND 27987 having the highest −10.1 kcal/mol. All four hits were subjected to molecular dynamics, and CMPND 27987 was further confirmed to be the most stable at the protein’s active site, with an MM-GBSA free binding energy of −27.75 kcal/mol. Our in silico studies indicate that CMPND 27987 interacts effectively within the binding site of the human aromatase, maintaining high affinity and stability.

In this study, we searched for novel PHD inhibitors from four databases of natural products and synthetic compounds: AfroDb Natural Products, AnalytiCon Discovery Natural Product (NP), HIM-Herbal Ingredients In-Vivo Metabolism, and Herbal Ingredients’ Targets, with a total number of 13,597 compounds. We screened the candidate compounds by molecular docking and validated them by molecular dynamics simulations and free energy calculations. We identified four target hits (ZINC36378940, ZINC2005305, ZINC31164438, and ZINC67910437) that showed stronger binding affinity to PHD2 compared to the positive control, Vadadustat (AKB-6548), with docking scores of − 13.34 kcal/mol, − 12.76 kcal/mol, − 11.96 kcal/mol, − 11.41 kcal/mol, and − 9.04 kcal/mol, respectively. The target ligands chelated the active site iron and interacted with key residues (Arg 383, Tyr329, Tyr303) of PHD2, in a similar manner as Vadadustat. Moreover, the dynamic stability-based assessment revealed that they also exhibited stable dynamics and compact trajectories.
