Drug Transporters in the Kidney: Perspectives on Species Differences, Disease Status, and Molecular Docking.

ABSTRACT: The kidneys are a pair of important organs that excretes endogenous waste and exogenous biological agents from the body. Numerous transporters are involved in the excretion process. The levels of these transporters could affect the pharmacokinetics of many drugs, such as organic anion drugs, organic cationic drugs, and peptide drugs. Eleven drug transporters in the kidney (OAT1, OAT3, OATP4C1, OCT2, MDR1, BCRP, MATE1, MATE2-K, OAT4, MRP2, and MRP4) have become necessary research items in the development of innovative drugs. However, the levels of these transporters vary between different species, sex-genders, ages, and disease statuses, which may lead to different pharmacokinetics of drugs. Here, we review the differences of the important transports in the mentioned conditions, in order to help clinicians to improve clinical prescriptions for patients. To predict drug-drug interactions (DDIs) caused by renal drug transporters, the molecular docking method is used for rapid screening of substrates or inhibitors of the drug transporters. Here, we review a large number of natural products that represent potential substrates and/or inhibitors of transporters by the molecular docking method.

Project description:Malaria caused by genus Plasmodium, is a parasite which is the main health issue for humans and about half of the population were suffered. An every year, approximately 1.2-2.7 million people died due to malaria globally. Therefore to prevent the spreading of malaria from the glob novel active drugs with specific activities are necessary. The present study aimed to identify novel drug molecule together with the bioinformatic tools for the development of active malarial drugs. As the search for latest anti malarial compound was developed, this work determined six active blends from various drug databases which possess drug-like characteristics and presents a significant anti malarial actions in in-silico level. Compound ID 300238, 889, 76569, 87324, 45678, and Z185397112are a few of the ligands were got from the Toss lab, Maybridge, Cambridge, Life chem, Bitter, and Examine drug databases and docked against hexokinase 1 protein (PDB: 1CZA) with high throughput practical screening (HTVS) using Glide v6.6. Amid the 6 compounds, compound no: 300238 from Toss lab has the greatest docking score of -9.889 kcal/mol targeting 1CZA protein. The active sites of Hexokinase I of protein were determine by using superimposition of the destination and template structure showed similar structural folds and active sites which were decidedly conserved. The quality of hexokinase I protein was considered to be sterically stable where the protein was prepared by utilizing the software protein preparation execute in the Schrodinger suite. Prepared proteins were evaluated using SAVES and the studies of molecular dynamics of the hexokinase, and the GROMACS were performed for protein-ligand complex. The low HOMO-LUMO energy gaps of the compound verified the greater stability of the molecule. Here, the tested drug candidates have good absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties which were established by using QikProp, version 3.4 of Schrodinger.
