In silico fragment-based design and pharmacophore modelling of therapeutics against dengue virus envelope protein.
Article in In silico pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Dengue virus, an arbovirus of genus Flavivirus, is an infectious disease causing organisms in the tropical environment leading to numerous deaths every year. No therapeutic is available against the virus till date with only symptomatic relief available. Here, we have tried to design therapeutic compounds from scratch by fragment based method followed by pharmacophore based modelling to find suitable similar structure molecules and validated the same by MD simulation, followed by binding energy calculations and ADMET analysis. The receptor binding region of the dengue envelope protein was considered as the target for prevention of viral host cell entry and thus infection. This resulted in the final selection of kanamycin as a stable binding molecule against the Dengue virus envelope protein receptor binding domain. This study results in selection of a single molecule having high binding energy and prominent stable interactions as determined by post simulation analyses. This study aims to provide a direction for development of small molecule therapeutics against the dengue virus in order to control infection. This study may open a new avenue in the arena of structure based and fragment based therapeutic design to obtain novel molecules with therapeutic potential.
