In the study, network analysis was performed to evaluate the degree of interaction and to explore the synergistic potential for Olaparib, Hyaluronic Acid, and Graphene Quantum Dots. This was followed by molecular docking studies to assess the binding affinity and interaction of compounds with their target proteins. Finally, Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses were conducted to pinpoint the biological processes and pathways that are most affected. A total of 910 breast cancer–related targets were identified from the GeneCards database, while 366 compound-associated targets were obtained from DIGEP-Pred, SuperPred, and SwissTargetPrediction databases. By overlapping these datasets, 90 common targets were identified, representing the potential intersection between disease-related and compound-related genes. Network pharmacology analysis revealed HA had the highest target interaction (degree = 31), followed by GQD (27) and Olaparib (18). These agents influenced key breast cancer targets (MAPK1, PIK3CA, AKT1, EGFR) and critical pathways like PI3K-Akt and MAPK signalling. Molecular docking showed strong binding affinities for GQD to EGFR and HA to Carbonic Anhydrase II. GO and KEGG analyses further highlighted the involvement of PI3K-Akt, MAPK, and JAK-STAT pathways in tumour progression and chemoresistance. Physicochemical characterization of the nanoformulation confirmed spherical morphology (173 nm particle size, PDI 0.28, zeta potential -30.5 mV). Cytotoxicity assays on MDA-MB-231 cells demonstrated the nanoformulation superior anticancer efficacy, reducing Olaparib's IC₅₀ from 512.07 µg/mL to 243.63 µg/mL.Network pharmacology provided crucial insights which highlighted potential synergies and targets in breast cancer by improving cellular uptake of nanoformulation. Importantly, the blank nanoparticles exhibited no significant toxicity, with an IC50 value 948.3 µg/mL.These findings underscore the promising nanocarrier-based system for enhancing Olaparib's therapeutic index, warranting further <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo</em> validation for clinical translation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9758,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Physics Impact","volume":"12 ","pages":"Article 101020"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146170312","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}

This is due to the coexistence of ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism in the same phase, which enables its ability to control magnetization with the application of an electric field. Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO<sub>3</sub>) based materials are one such promising contender, offering numerous advantages. The fabrication of these materials in the form of thin films is quite challenging because the crystal structure, including the oxygen atom, is complex. The fabrication method plays a crucial role in regulating both the structure and the ferroelectric and ferromagnetic behavior of these thin films. In this study, we have fabricated BiFeO<sub>3</sub> based thin films using pulsed DC reactive sputtering and compared their crystal structure, along with their magnetic and ferroelectric properties, with those of thin films fabricated using RF sputtering. Thin films fabricated using pulsed DC reactive sputtering reflect superior crystal structure as well as magnetic and insulating properties. The saturation magnetization in the case of pulsed DC reactive sputtering is found to be significantly higher (72 emu/cm³) than that of RF sputtering (48 emu/cm³). The leakage current has improved from 10<sup>–5</sup> A to 10<sup>–7</sup> A. Here, while fabricating high quality BiFeO<sub>3</sub> based thin films using pulsed DC reactive sputtering, careful consideration must be given to the sputtering target. If an insulating target for RF sputtering is used in this pulsed DC reactive sputtering, not only does arc discharge occur frequently, but also the thin film composition differs significantly from the target composition. Therefore, the target must be conductive.

Molecular docking studies against seven physiologically relevant proteins reveal strong binding affinities and optimal interaction against hepatitis B viral capsid with final intermolecular energy of −13.53 kcal/mol and binding free energy of −10.25 kcal/mol at 30 nM inhibition constant. ADMET analysis indicates favourable safety profiles with moderate bioavailability. The integrated computational approach demonstrates that Luteolin<em>-7-O-β-<span>d</span>-</em>glucoside may be explored as a potential multifunctional drug candidate for hepatitis B, Alzheimer's disease, cancer, type 2 Diabetes and other metabolic diseases, along with nonlinear optical applications that dominate in the liquid phase.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9758,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Physics Impact","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100978"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145690394","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 this study, spinel pure copper cobaltite CuCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> (CC0) and Fe doped CuCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> electrodes at different mole concentrations (FCC1–0.05 M, FCC2–0.1 M, FCC3–0.15 M, and FCC4–0.2 M) of metal mole complexes are made utilizing the sol-gel procedure using solvents such as citric acid and water. Using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), HRTEM, and XPS, the resulting sample is systematically examined to analyze its functional group, crystallite size, shape, and chemical composition. All electrodes are Electric Double Layer Capacitors (EDLCs), according to the Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) test. The Galvanostatic Charge – Discharge (GCD) analysis confirmed that the pure CuCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> (CC0) electrode has a specific capacitance of 80.61F/g at the same current density, while the Fe doped 0.2 M CuCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> (FCC4) electrode has the highest specific capacitance, reaching 163.20F/g at a current density of 1 A/g. Following that, a two-electrode configuration is constructed, such as a Fe doped 0.2 M CuCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> (FCC4) electrode and an activated carbon (AC) electrode. With a specific capacity of 11.62 F/g at a current density of 1 A/g, an energy density of 2.32 Whkg<sup>-1</sup>, and an impressive power density of 149.99 Wkg<sup>-1</sup>, the ASC device exhibits outstanding characteristics. The device has a high total capacitive retention value of 99.84 % after 2000 cycles, and supercapacitor devices in particular show remarkable cycle stability. These findings demonstrate that the Fe doped 0.2 M CuCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> (FCC4) electrode has superior electrochemical performance, making it a promising electrode material for supercapacitor applications compared to pure CuCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> (CC0).</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9758,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Physics Impact","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100907"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144725031","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}
