March 2022 in “Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling” This study identified a series of novel β-glucuronidase inhibitors that may help mitigate adverse effects of first-line anti-cancer drugs by targeting gut bacteria, based on virtual high-throughput screening findings.
This study identified several compounds, including Pictilisib and Nimorazole, that may have higher binding affinity for SARS-CoV-2 main protease than existing inhibitors, potentially offering new treatment alternatives for Covid-19.

January 2014 in “Molecular Simulation” This study discovered a potential new 5α-reductase type II inhibitor with higher predicted activity than finasteride, suggesting it as a promising candidate for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.
January 2020 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that the ethyl acetate extract of Semecarpus anacardium leaves demonstrated cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cancer cells and induced apoptosis, suggesting potential as a cancer treatment with fewer side effects.
In this study using a virtual screening approach, eriocitrin and silymarin were identified as potent flavonoid compounds that strongly and stably interacted with 5α-reductase type II, suggesting potential development as novel treatments for androgenic alopecia.
