Inhibition of Xanthine Oxidase by Four Phenolic Acids: Kinetic, Spectroscopic, Molecular Simulation, and Cellular Insights
Bibliographic record
Abstract
-coumaric acid (CA), gallic acid (GA), and protocatechuic acid (PA)) on xanthine oxidase (XOD) were investigated. All four phenolic acids acted via a mixed inhibition pattern, mainly influencing the hydrophobic regions and secondary conformation of XOD through hydrophobic bonding and hydrophobic association. Molecular dynamics simulations exhibited that the complexes of XOD with FA and CA revealed smaller radii of gyration (Rg) and solvent-accessible surface areas (SASA), along with lower variability in root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) and root-mean-square fluctuation (RMSF), collectively indicating greater structural stability. FA, CA, and PA significantly reduced uric acid (UA) concentration in the 25-100 μM range. Although GA only reduced UA levels in cell models at 25 μM, this effect was likely due to its larger polar surface area, which limits cellular uptake. Absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) evaluation suggested that these phenolic acids have potential for development.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
