BackgroundNeurological disorders like Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) manifest through gradually deteriorating cognitive functions. An encouraging strategy for addressing these disorders involves the inhibition of precursor-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1).ObjectivesIn the current research, a virtual screening technique was employed to identify potential BACE1 inhibitors among selected herbal isolates.MethodsThis study evaluated 79 flavonoids, anthraquinones (AQs), and cinnamic acid derivatives for their potential blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. Using the AutoDock 4.0 tool, molecular docking analysis was conducted to determine the binding affinity of BBB permeable compounds to the BACE1 active site. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to assess the stability of the docked poses of the most potent inhibitors. The interactions between the most effective plant-based inhibitors and the residues within the BACE1 catalytic site were examined before and after MD simulations.ResultsPonciretin, danthron, chrysophanol, and N-p-coumaroyltyramine were among the highest-ranking BACE1 inhibitors, with inhibition constant values calculated in the nanomolar range. Furthermore, during 10 ns simulations, the docked poses of these ligands were observed to be stable.ConclusionThe findings propose that ponciretin, danthron, chrysophanol, and N-p-coumaroyltyramine might serve as potential choices for the treatment of AD and PD, laying the groundwork for the creation of innovative BACE1 inhibitors.
