Eucalyptol (1,8 Cineole) from Eucalyptus As COVID-19 Mpro Inhibitor
Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 31 March 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202003.0455.v1 Eucalyptol (1,8 cineole) from eucalyptus as COVID-19 Mpro inhibitor. However, essential oil a potential inhibitor of further research is necessary to investigate COVID 19 corona virus infection by their potential medicinal use. Molecular docking studies Arun Dev Sharma* and Inderjeet Kaur Keywords: COVID-19, Essential oil, Eucalyptol, Molecular docking PG dept of Biotechnology, Lyallpur Khalsa College Jalandhar *Corresponding author, e mail: [email protected] Graphical abstract Abstract Background: COVID-19, a member of corona virus family is spreading its tentacles across the world due to lack of drugs at present. Associated with its infection are cough, fever and respiratory problems causes more than 15% mortality worldwide. It is caused by a positive, single stranded RNA virus from the enveloped coronaviruse family. However, the main viral proteinase (Mpro/3CLpro) has recently been regarded as a suitable target for drug design against SARS infection due to its vital role in polyproteins processing necessary for coronavirus reproduction. Objectives: The present in silico study was designed to evaluate the effect of Eucalyptol (1,8 cineole), a essential oil component from eucalyptus oil, on Mpro by docking study. Methods: In the present study, molecular docking studies were conducted by using 1- click dock and swiss dock tools. Protein interaction mode was calculated by Protein Interactions Calculator. Results: The calculated parameters such as RMSD, binding energy, and binding site similarity indicated effective binding of eucalyptol to COVID-19 proteinase. Active site prediction further validated the role of active site residues in ligand binding. -
1 TRP About Online
a TR P to Spain International Workshop on Transient Receptor Potential Channels 12th – 14th September 2012 Valencia, Spain www.trp2012.com SCHEDULE and ABSTRACTS BOOK September 2012 Dear participants, Travelling to faraway places in search of spiritual or cultural enlightenment is a millennium old human activity. In their travels, pilgrims brought with them news, foods, music and traditions from distant lands. This friendly exchange led to the cultural enrichment of visitors and the economic flourishing of places, now iconic, such as Rome, Santiago, Jerusalem, Mecca, Varanasi or Angkor Thom. The dissemination of science and technology also benefited greatly from these travels to remote locations. The new pilgrims of the Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) community are also very fond of travelling. In the past years they have gathered at various locations around the globe: Breckenridge (USA), Eilat (Israel), Stockholm (Sweden) and Leuven (Belgium) come to mind. These meetings, each different and exciting, have been very important for the dissemination of TRP research. We are happy to welcome you in Valencia (Spain) for TRP2012. The response to our call has been extraordinary, surpassing all our expectations. The speakers, the modern bards, readily attended our request to communicate their new results. At last count we were already more than 170 participants, many of them students, and most presenting their recent work in the form of posters or short oral presentations. At least 25 countries are sending TRP ambassadors to Valencia, making this a truly international meeting. We like to thank the staff of the Cátedra Santiago Grisolía, Fundación Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias for their dedication and excellence in handling the administrative details of the workshop. -

For more information, call the CPSC’s toll-free hotline at 1-800-638-2772 or visit its website at http://www.cpsc.gov. Poison Prevention Packaging: A Guide For Healthcare Professionals (revised 2005) Preface The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) administers the Poison Prevention Packaging Act of 1970 (PPPA), 15 U.S.C. §§ 1471-1476. The PPPA requires special (child-resistant and adult-friendly) packaging of a wide range of hazardous household products including most oral prescription drugs. Healthcare professionals are more directly involved with the regulations dealing with drug products than household chemical products. Over the years that the regulations have been in effect, there have been remarkable declines in reported deaths from ingestions by children of toxic household substances including medications. Despite this reduction in deaths, many children are poisoned or have "near-misses" with medicines and household chemicals each year. Annually, there are about 30 deaths of children under 5 years of age who are unintentionally poisoned. Data from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (a CPSC database of emergency room visits) indicate that in 2003, an estimated 78,000 children under 5 years of age were treated for poisonings in hospital emergency rooms in the United States. -

TRP Channel Transient Receptor Potential Channels
TRP Channel Transient receptor potential channels TRP Channel (Transient receptor potential channel) is a group of ion channels located mostly on the plasma membrane of numerous human and animal cell types. There are about 28 TRP channels that share some structural similarity to each other. These are grouped into two broad groups: Group 1 includes TRPC ("C" for canonical), TRPV ("V" for vanilloid), TRPM ("M" for melastatin), TRPN, and TRPA. In group 2, there are TRPP ("P" for polycystic) and TRPML ("ML" for mucolipin). Many of these channels mediate a variety of sensations like the sensations of pain, hotness, warmth or coldness, different kinds of tastes, pressure, and vision. TRP channels are relatively non-selectively permeable to cations, including sodium, calcium and magnesium. TRP channels are initially discovered in trp-mutant strain of the fruit fly Drosophila. Later, TRP channels are found in vertebrates where they are ubiquitously expressed in many cell types and tissues. TRP channels are important for human health as mutations in at least four TRP channels underlie disease. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 TRP Channel Inhibitors, Antagonists, Agonists, Activators & Modulators (-)-Menthol (E)-Cardamonin Cat.
