α-Amylase Modulation: Discovery of Inhibitors Using a Multi-Pharmacophore Approach for Virtual Screening.

abstract：:Over the past few years, the number of people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes has increased owing to an unhealthy diet, a limited amount of exercise, and obesity. The search for novel and efficient antidiabetes agents has become an urgent task for scientists. Among the antidiabetes drugs, α-glucosidase inhibitor drugs ...
