In-silico and in-vitro screening of Asiatic acid and Asiaticoside A against Cathepsin S enzyme
CONCLUSION: This clearly shows that asiaticoside will be a better drug candidate than asiatic acid in inhibiting the CatS enzyme for the purpose of improving the outcome of atherosclerosis. However, certain modifications need to be made to the structural make-up of asiaticoside A to improve its pharmacokinetics properties.PMID:38007481 | PMC:PMC10676574 | DOI:10.1186/s40360-023-00701-x
