Abstract excerpt
We have shown previously that glycyrol has an inhibitory effect on the immune response in mice by reducing calcineurin activity (Li et al., 2010, Pharm Biol 48:1177–1184). Here, we investigated the interaction of glycyrol with calcineurin A (CNA, catalytic A subunit of calcineurin) by spectroscopic methods and docking. We showed that glycyrol binds to CNA via hydrophobic interactions in a ratio of 1:1, and the...
