gov.The major health-care burden for the developing world are the Infectious diseases and antimicrobial agents prove to be the magical drugs to combat this. But the phenomenon of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) represents a global challenging issue, which requires to be addressed effectively. The antimicrobial treatment for the emerging multidrug-resistant bacterial (e.g. TB, Cholera) and fungal (e.g. Candidiasis) infections is very limited and there are multiple causes and reasons responsible for the evolution of such resistance. Considering the critical issues of increasing AMR, there is an urgent requirement of identification, development, validation, and progression of novel strategies and approaches that can easily be utilized for overcoming this serious issue. Immunotherapy represents a significant way to improve host defenses and combat the issue of antimicrobial drug resistance. Similarly, drug combination therapy represents another promising approach for reducing the evolution of resistance and enhancing easing antimicrobial drug resistance menace in various human pathogenic microbes.Coronaviruses are a group of known RNA virus which primarily infects the respiratory tract, and also neurological, enteric, and hepatic systems. Endemic outbreaks of Middle East Coronavirus Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV) have been observed in recent decades. A new strain named the SARS CoV-2(COVID-19) virus has now spread across the globe. SARS-CoV-2 is highly communicable and has culminated in a massive pandemic of COVID-19. Currently, no successful treatment is available. Therefore, an urgent need is there for new screening models that can aid in identifying the drugs with potential activity against COVID-19. The current review aims to discuss various in-silico, in-vitro and in-vivo screening methods, that can potentially be used to expedite the discovery of new active therapeutic candidates and vaccines, drug targets, and repurposing the commercially available drugs against COVID-19 for the effective management of the infection and thereby controlling this pandemic. Further, the current status of drugs and vaccines under clinical investigation has been summarized.Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are responsible for over 500,000 deaths annually and are characterized by multiple disabilities. Leishmaniasis and Chagas diseases are among the most severe NTDs, and are caused by the Leishmania sp and Trypanosoma cruzi, respectively. Glucantime, pentamidine, and miltefosine are commonly used to treat leishmaniasis, whereas nifurtimox, benznidazole are current treatments for Chagas disease. However, these treatments are associated with drug resistance and severe side effects. Hence, the development of synthetic products, especially those containing N02, F, or Cl, are known to improve biological activity. The present work summarizes the information on the antileishmanial and antitrypanosomal activity of nitro-, chloro-, and fluorosynthetic derivatives. Scientific publications referring to halogenated derivatives in relation to antileishmanial and antitrypanosomal activities were hand-searched in databases such as SciFinder, Wiley, Science Direct, PubMed, ACS, Springer, Scielo, and so on. According to the literature information, more than 90 compounds were predicted as lead molecules with reference to their IC50/EC50 values in in vitro studies. It is worth mentioning that only active compounds with known cytotoxic effects against mammalian cells were considered in the present study. The observed activity was attributed to the presence of nitro-, fluoro-, and chloro-groups in the compound backbone. All in all, nitro and halogenated derivatives are active antileishmanial and antitrypanosomal compounds and can serve as the baseline for the development of new drugs against leishmaniasis and Chagas disease.

Pharmacokinetic studies and the mechanism of action of the promising compounds need to be explored. The use of new catalysts and chemical transformation can afford unexplored halogenated compounds with improved antileishmanial and antitrypanosomal activity.<br /><br /> Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is one of the serious health issues affecting one-third of the world's population. The high variations of the HCV genome are ascribed to quick replication by NS5B Polymerase and are thus the most attractive target for developing anti-HCV agents.<br /><br /> The current study aimed to discover novel phytochemicals that harbor the potential of NS5B polymerase inhibition.<br /><br /> In this computational study, a molecular docking approach was used to screen phytochemicals with the best binding and spatial affinity with NS5B at the Palm I region. The top-ranked compounds were then subjected to in-silico pharmacokinetic and toxicological study.<br /><br /> The virtual screening provided seven 'hit compounds' including Betanin, 3,5'- dihydroxythalifaboramine, Diarctigenin, 6'-desmethylthalifaboramine, Cephalotaxine, 5alpha-O-(3'-dimethylamino-3'- phenylpropionyl) taxinine M and IsoTetrandrine with minimum binding score compared to the reference drug, Sofosbuvir (-14.7 kcal/mol). The absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) and thorough toxicological analysis revealed a favorable and the safety profile of these compounds. The study would demonstrate the phytochemicals identified might serve as potential antiviral compounds that can potentially an alternative approach for amelioration of HCV.<br /><br />The virtual screening provided seven 'hit compounds' including Betanin, 3,5'- dihydroxythalifaboramine, Diarctigenin, 6'-desmethylthalifaboramine, Cephalotaxine, 5alpha-O-(3'-dimethylamino-3'- phenylpropionyl) taxinine M and IsoTetrandrine with minimum binding score compared to the reference drug, Sofosbuvir (-14.7 kcal/mol).
