Description

Ajay Mili and four co-authors search for natural compounds that block a cancer linked enzyme in a 2024 paper. Changes in that enzyme drive many breast cancers, above all a common hormone sensitive type. The team build a model of how a known drug fits the enzyme, then screen a library of natural compounds for a like fit.

Docking tests picked seven candidates, and motion simulations narrowed the field to three that held stable, tight contact with the enzyme. Those three scored well across a battery of stability measures. The authors project they could act as blockers with fewer side effects than standard drugs, pending lab and animal tests.
