ABSTRACT Aristolochia species have long been used in traditional medicine for their presumed anti‐inflammatory, analgesic and antimicrobial properties. However, extensive toxicological and epidemiological evidence now demonstrates that these plants contain aristolochic acids (AAs) I and II, highly potent nephrotoxic, genotoxic, and carcinogenic ...

Reconsidering Molecular Docking Practices in Aptamer Research
Benchmarking against the theophylline aptamer crystal structure shows that current docking workflows generate incorrect structures and fail to predict binding specificity, underscoring the need for caution when interpreting docking results in aptamer research. Molecular docking is increasingly used to infer aptamer–target interactions, yet most studies
