Fructosamine-3-kinase (FN3K) is involved in the deglycation of Nrf2, a significant regulator of oxidative stress in cancer cells. However, the intricate functional aspects of FN3K and Nrf2 in breast cancers have not been explored vividly. The objectives of this study are to design the human FN3K protein using homology modeling followed by the screening of several anticancer molecules and examining their efficacy to modulate FN3K activity, Nrf2-mediated antioxidant signalling. Methods pertinent to homology modeling, virtual screening, molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, assessment of ADME properties, cytotoxicity assays for anticancer molecules of natural/synthetic origin in breast cancer cells (BT-474, T-47D), and Western blotting were used in this study. The screened anticancer molecules including kinase inhibitors of natural and synthetic origin interacted with the 3-dimensional structure of the catalytic domain in human FN3K protein designed through homology modeling by significant CDOCKER interaction energies. Subsequently, gefitinib, sorafenib, neratinib, tamoxifen citrate, and cyclosporine A enhanced the expression of FN3K in BT-474 cell lines with simultaneous alteration in Nrf2-driven antioxidant signalling. Oxaliplatin significantly downregulated FN3K expression and modulated Nrf2-driven antioxidant signalling when compared to cisplatin and other anticancer drugs. Hence, the study concluded the potential implications of existing anticancer drugs to modulate FN3K activity in breast cancers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
