Los preprints son informes de investigación preliminares que no han sido certificados por revisión por pares. No deben considerarse para guiar la práctica clínica o los comportamientos relacionados con la salud y no deben publicarse en los medios como información establecida.
Los preprints publicados en línea permiten a los autores recibir comentarios rápidamente, y toda la comunidad científica puede evaluar de forma independiente el trabajo y responder adecuadamente. Estos comentarios se publican junto con los preprints para que cualquiera pueda leer y servir como una revisión pospublicación.

ABSTRACT
Bioactive fractions or compounds obtained from medicinal plants have been used for the treatment of multiple diseases. This effect could be due to common pathways underlying these conditions that are targeted by such medicines. In this study, we explored the molecular basis of action of one such herbal formulation Cissampelos pareira, used for the treatment of female hormone disorders and fever. Genome-wide expression studies on MCF7 cell lines treated with Cipa extract were carried out using Affymetrix arrays. Transcriptome analysis revealed a downregulation of signatures of estrogen response governed by estrogen receptor (ER). Molecular docking analysis identified 38 constituent molecules in Cipa that potentially bind ({Delta}G< -7.5) with ER at the same site as estrogen. Cipa transcriptome signatures show high positive connectivity (https//clue.io/) scores with protein translation inhibitors such as emetine (score 99.61) and knockdown signatures of genes linked to the antiviral response such as ribosomal protein RPL7 (score 99.92), which is also an ER coactivator. Cipa exhibits antiviral activity in dengue infected MCF7 cells that is decreased upon ESR1 (estrogen receptor 1) gene knockdown. This approach reveals a novel pathway involving ESR1-RPL7 axis that could be a potential target in dengue viral infection.
