Journal ArticleDOI
Covid-19 and dengue: Double punches for dengue-endemic countries in Asia.
Harapan Harapan,Mirza Ryan,Benediktus Yohan,Rufika Shari Abidin,Firzan Nainu,Ahmed Rakib,Israt Jahan,Talha Bin Emran,Irfan Ullah,Kritu Panta,Kuldeep Dhama,R. Tedjo Sasmono +11 more
TL;DR: The issue of Covid‐19 and dengue fever misdiagnosis is raised, not only in a clinical setting but also with regards to cross‐reactivity between SARS‐CoV‐2 and DENV antibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochemical and Computational Approach of Selected Phytocompounds from Tinospora crispa in the Management of COVID-19.
Ahmed Rakib,Arkajyoti Paul,Arkajyoti Paul,Nazim Uddin Chy,Saad Ahmed Sami,Sumit Kumar Baral,Mohuya Majumder,Abu Montakim Tareq,Mohammad Nurul Amin,Asif Shahriar,Zia Uddin,Zia Uddin,Mycal Dutta,Mycal Dutta,Trina Ekawati Tallei,Talha Bin Emran,Jesus Simal-Gandara +16 more
TL;DR: Analysis of bioactive phytocompounds isolated by gas chromatography–mass spectroscopy from Tinospora crispa revealed that the top nine hits might serve as potential anti-SARS-CoV-2 lead molecules, with three of them exerting biological activity and warranting further optimization and drug development to combat COVID-19.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunoinformatics-guided design of an epitope-based vaccine against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 spike glycoprotein.
Ahmed Rakib,Saad Ahmed Sami,Nusrat Jahan Mimi,Md. Mustafiz Chowdhury,Taslima Akter Eva,Firzan Nainu,Arkajyoti Paul,Asif Shahriar,Abu Montakim Tareq,Nazim Uddin Emon,Sajal Chakraborty,Sagar Shil,Sabrina Jahan Mily,Taibi Ben Hadda,Faisal A. Almalki,Talha Bin Emran +15 more
TL;DR: This study comprehensibly analyzed the spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2 through multiple sequence analysis and a phylogenetic analysis, and predicted the strongest immunogenic epitopes of the SGP for both B cells and T cells and two optimal epitopes were identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
A molecular modelling approach for identifying antiviral selenium-containing heterocyclic compounds that inhibit the main protease of SARS-CoV-2: an in silico investigation.
Ahmed Rakib,Zulkar Nain,Saad Ahmed Sami,Shafi Mahmud,Ashiqul Islam,Shahriar Ahmed,Adnan Bin Faisul Siddiqui,S.M. Omar Faruque Babu,Payar Hossain,Asif Shahriar,Firzan Nainu,Talha Bin Emran,Jesus Simal-Gandara +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a molecular docking analysis and found that several of the selected selenocompounds showed potential binding affinities for SARS-CoV-2 Mpro, especially ethaselen (49), which exhibited a docking score of -6.7
Journal ArticleDOI
Antipyretic and hepatoprotective potential of Tinospora crispa and investigation of possible lead compounds through in silico approaches
Ahmed Rakib,Shahriar Ahmed,Ashiqul Islam,Abdul Haye,S. M. Naim Uddin,Mir Muhammad Nasir Uddin,Mohammed Kamrul Hossain,Arkajyoti Paul,Talha Bin Emran +8 more
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that both the methanolic extract of T. crispa and those fractions containing genkwanin may offer promise in reducing pyrexia and as a source of potential hepatoprotective agents.
