Abstract
Cancer is a kind of human cell degenerative disease that has affected many people for several years. Cancer is caused due to the abnormal growth of cells in every particular part of the body. The 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring is found to be a binding moiety that has anticancer potential. Various works on the 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety showing anticancer activity have been reported. The present analysis summarizes general synthetic methods for 1,3,4 oxadiazole. Different receptors on which these drug acts are discussed. This review also presents pharmacophore models for topoisomerase-I, histone deacetylase, and epidermal growth factor enzymes.
Keywords: Cancer, 1, 3, 4-Oxadiazole, Anticancer potential, Synthetic methods, Receptors, Pharmacophore.

AlphaFold in Medicinal Chemistry: Opportunities and Challenges
AlphaFold, a groundbreaking AI tool for protein structure prediction, is revolutionizing drug discovery. Its near-atomic accuracy unlocks new avenues for designing targeted drugs and performing efficient virtual screening. However, AlphaFold's static predictions lack the dynamic nature of proteins, crucial for understanding drug action. This is especially true for multi-domain proteins, ...read more
Artificial intelligence for Natural Products Discovery and Development
Our approach involves using computational methods to predict the potential therapeutic benefits of natural products by considering factors such as drug structure, targets, and interactions. We also employ multitarget analysis to understand the role of drug targets in disease pathways. We advocate for the use of artificial intelligence in predicting ...read more
Chemistry Based on Natural Products for Therapeutic Purposes
The development of new pharmaceuticals for a wide range of medical conditions has long relied on the identification of promising natural products (NPs). There are over sixty percent of cancer, infectious illness, and CNS disease medications that include an NP pharmacophore, according to the Food and Drug Administration. Since NP ...read more
