Computational docking and in vitro analysis identifies novel arylidene analogue FPMXY-14 against renal cancer cells by attenuating Akt.

ABSTRACT: Targeted therapies are gaining global attention to tackle Renal Cancer (RC). This study aims to screen FPMXY-14 (novel arylidene analogue) for Akt inhibition by computational and in vitro methods. FPMXY-14 was subjected to proton NMR analysis and Mass spectrum analysis. Vero, HEK-293, Caki-1, and A498 cell lines were used. Akt enzyme inhibition was studied with the fluorescent-based kit assay. Modeller 9.19, Schrodinger 2018-1, LigPrep module, and Glide docking were used in computational analysis. The nuclear status was assessed by PI/Hoechst-333258 staining, cell cycle, and apoptosis assays were performed using flow cytometry. Scratch wound and migrations assays were performed. Western blotting was applied to study key signalling proteins. FPMXY-14 selectively inhibited kidney canc
