Abstract
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The effectiveness of the current drugs is still restricted due to high side effects; thus, it is urgently needed to discover novel compounds for drug development. In the field of drug discovery research, the main target receptors for chemotherapy are identified as ACE, PPAR-γ, HMGR, COX-2, and thrombin. In this study, docking simulations were performed for phytoconstituents of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge in searching for compounds with potential inhibitory activities against these proteins. As a result, six compounds were suggested as potential multitarget inhibitors and could be considered for further drug development studies based on docking conformation and ADMET property analysis.
