RESUMEN
CDK6 is a critical protein involved in the regulation of the cell cycle, playing an important role in the progression from the G1 to S phase. In breast cancer, dysregulation of this protein is involved in tumour development and progression, particularly in hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancers. The upregulation of CDK6 have been observed in a subset of breast cancers, leading to uncontrolled progression of the cell cycle and increased proliferation of cells. The purpose of this abstract is to provide an outline of CDK6's role. In breast cancer and the therapeutic strategies targeting CDK6 using specific selected inhibitors. To discover viable therapeutic candidates after competitive inhibition of CDK6 with a small molecular drug complex, high throughput screening and docking studies were used. Further, we carried the compounds based on ADMET properties and prediction of activity spectra for substances analysis. Finally, two different compounds were selected to carry out MD simulations. CDK6-IMPHY002642 and CDK6-IMPHY005260 are the two compounds that were identified. Overall, our results suggest that the CDK6-IMPHY002642 and CDK6-IMPHY005260 complex was relatively stable during the simulation. The compounds that have been found can also be further examined as potential therapeutic possibilities. The combined findings suggest that CDK6, together with their genetic changes, can be investigated in therapeutic interventions for precision oncology, leveraging early diagnostics and target-driven therapy.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

RESUMEN
The general blueprint for the design of monoamine oxidase-B (MAO-B) inhibitors has been based on two phenyl or heteronuclei linked via a spacer of appropriate length. In this study, 1-[4-(morpholin-4-yl)phenyl]-5-phenylpenta-2,4-dien-1-one (MO10) was prepared by the condensation of 4'-morpholinoacetophenone and cinnamaldehyde in basic alcoholic medium. MO10 was assessed for inhibitory activity against two human MAO isoforms, MAO-A and MAO-B. Interestingly, MO10 showed a remarkable inhibition against MAO-B with an IC50 value of 0.044â µM along with a selectivity index of 366.13. The IC50 value was better than that of lazabemide (IC50 value of 0.063â µM), which was used as a reference. Kinetics studies revealed that MO10 acted as a competitive inhibitor of MAO-B, with a Ki value of 0.0080â µM. The observation of recovery of MAO-B inhibition, compared to reference levels showed MO10 to be a reversible inhibitor. MTT assays showed that MO10 was nontoxic to normal VERO cells with an IC50 value of 195.44â µg/mL. SwissADME predicted that MO10 provided advantageous pharmacokinetics profiles for developing agents acting on the central nervous system, that is, high passive human gastrointestinal absorption and blood-brain barrier permeability. Molecular docking simulations showed that MO10 properly entered the aromatic cage formed by Y435, Y398, and FAD of the active site of MAO-B. On the basis of these results, MO10 can be considered a promising starting compound in development of agents for the treatment of various neurodegenerative disorders.
