Molecular dynamics simulations and experimental studies reveal differential permeability of withaferin-A and withanone across the model cell membrane
Abstract Poor bioavailability due to the inability to cross the cell membrane is one of the major reasons for the failure of a drug in clinical trials. We have used molecular dynamics simulations to predict the membrane permeability of natural drugs—withanolides (withaferin-A and withanone) that hav...
