Investigation of the inhibitory potential of secondary metabolites isolated from Fernandoa adenophylla against Beta-glucuronidase via molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies.
Article in PloS one, 2025. 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
Elevated β-glucuronidase activity is associated with the production of toxic metabolites that contribute to tumor development and other diseases. Inhibiting this enzyme may offer therapeutic potential, including the prevention of colonic carcinogenesis. This study investigates the antidiabetic potential of metabolites derived from Fernandoa adenophylla, using β-glucuronidase as a model enzyme linked to hyperglycemia. Both Escherichia coli and human isoforms of β-glucuronidase were evaluated. Among the tested compounds, AA and DD exhibited the most significant inhibitory activity against the E. coli isoenzyme, with inhibition rates of 85.2% (IC₅₀ = 12.3 µM) and 82.6% (IC₅₀ = 8.2 µM), respectively. Against the human isoenzyme, compounds DD and CC showed the highest inhibition, with 92.6% (IC₅₀ = 28.2 µM) and 90.4% (IC₅₀ = 8.9 µM), respectively. These findings were further supported by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. So, these results highlight the potential of F. adenophylla metabolites as promising candidates for developing novel therapeutic agents targeting β-glucuronidase.
