Computational Prioritization of Novel Nabumetone-Derived Heterocycles as Potential Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors
Purpose: To prioritize fifteen novel nabumetone-derived heterocycles as potential cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors using an integrated in silico workflow. Methods: Compounds N1-N15 were evaluated by molecular docking against meloxicam-bound murine cyclooxygenase-2 (PDB ID: 4M11) using MOE 2019. The protocol was validated by...
