Linalool-based silver nanoconjugates as potential therapeutics for glioblastoma: in silico and in vitro insights.

ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma is the most predominant type of brain tumor, and resistance to medication has hampered the effectiveness of chemotherapy for gliomas. Acyclic monoterpene alcohol, linalool, has a range of pharmacological properties. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of linalool and its nanoformulation on glioblastoma cell proliferation. DFT and ADMET analyses were used to initially assess the physiochemical characteristics of linalool and the produced silver nanoconjugates, LN@AgNPs. STRING database and Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) were used to narrow the 6 genes involved in glioblastoma and underwent for molecular docking study. Using AutoDock Vina 1.5.7, ligands were docked to the interaction site of selected targets. Top scored complexes PD-L1/Ligands
