Cannabidiol (CBD), derived from Cannabis sativa, has gained remarkable attention for its potential therapeutic applications. This thorough analysis explores the increasing significance of CBD in treating neurological conditions including epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease, which present major healthcare concerns on a worldwide scale. Despite the lack of available therapies, CBD has been shown to possess a variety of pharmacological effects in preclinical and clinical studies, making it an intriguing competitor. This review brings together the most recent findings on the endocannabinoid and neurotransmitter systems, as well as anti-inflammatory pathways, that underlie CBD’s modes of action. Synthesized efficacy and safety assessments for a range of neurological illnesses are included, covering human trials, in vitro studies, and animal models. The investigation includes how CBD could protect neurons, control neuroinflammation, fend off oxidative stress, and manage neuronal excitability. This study emphasizes existing clinical studies and future possibilities in CBD research, addressing research issues such as regulatory complications and contradicting results, and advocates for further investigation of therapeutic efficacy and ideal dose methodologies. By emphasizing CBD’s potential to improve patient well-being, this investigation presents a revised viewpoint on its suitability as a therapeutic intervention for neurological illnesses.

This study explores the complex link between vitamin D and neurological illnesses, focusing on how vitamin D affects possible risk factors, therapeutic applications, and the trajectory of the disease. An epidemiological study has linked vitamin D insufficiency to several neurological conditions, including Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and multiple sclerosis. It is hypothesized that immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties of vitamin D contribute to its neuroprotective effects. Two major mechanisms in dementia include neuroinflammation and oxidative stress. Adequate levels of vitamin D have been shown in both animal models and human studies to enhance both clinical outcomes and the duration of illness in those who have it. Other ways that vitamin D contributes to its therapeutic potential include the production of neurotrophic factors, control over neurotransmitter synthesis, and preservation of the blood-brain barrier. Despite the encouraging outcomes, research is still being conducted to determine the optimal dosage and long-term benefits of vitamin D supplementation on brain function. In order to furnish precise directives and clarify the processes behind the neuroprotective impacts of vitamin D, future research must focus on large-scale randomized controlled studies. . This study highlights the significance of maintaining adequate levels of vitamin D as a modifiable risk factor for neurological disorders. Further study is also required to comprehend the possible medical benefits of this vitamin fully.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline, synaptic dysfunction, and neuroinflammation, with oxidative stress playing a crucial role. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), known for its antioxidant properties, has been proposed as a potential therapeutic agent due to its ability to mitigate oxidative damage and maintain mitochondrial integrity. This study investigates the molecular interactions of CoQ10 with key proteins involved in AD pathology—Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3β (GSK-3β), Protein Kinase B (PKB), and Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)—through molecular docking methods. Results indicate that CoQ10 exhibits the strongest binding affinity with GSK-3β, potentially reducing tau protein phosphorylation, a hallmark of AD. ADMET analysis further supports CoQ10’s drug-like properties, with favorable absorption and safety profiles, though limited blood-brain barrier permeability poses challenges. This in-silico study highlights CoQ10’s therapeutic potential in addressing neuroinflammation and oxidative stress in AD, warranting further in vitro and in vivo validation. Keywords: Alzheimer’s disease, coenzyme Q10, molecular docking, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation

Background: Mammalian orthoreovirus is a ubiquitous double-stranded RNA virus that causes mild respiratory and enteric infections, primarily in infants and young children. Its significant environmental stability and association with conditions like celiac disease highlight an unmet medical need, as no licensed vaccine or antiviral treatment currently exist. Methods: An immunoinformatics-driven approach was employed to design a multi-epitope vaccine. The highly antigenic inner capsid protein Sigma-2 was used to predict cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL), helper T lymphocyte (HTL), and linear B cell epitopes using NetCTL, NetMHCpan, NetMHCIIpan, and IEDB tools. Selected epitopes were fused with appropriate linkers. The construct’s antigenicity, allergenicity, and physicochemical properties were evaluated. The tertiary structure was predicted with AlphaFold2, refined, and validated. Molecular docking with TLR2 and TLR4 was performed using HDOCK, and immune response simulation was conducted with C-ImmSim. Finally, the sequence was codon-optimized for E. coli expression using JCat. Results: The final vaccine construct comprises one CTL, four HTLs, and one B cell epitope. It is antigenic (VaxiJen score: 0.5026), non-allergenic, and non-toxic and possesses favorable physicochemical properties, including stability (instability index: 32.28). Molecular docking revealed exceptionally strong binding to key immune receptors, particularly TLR2 (docking score: −324.37 kcal/mol). Immune simulations predicted robust antibody production (elevated IgM, IgG1, and IgG2) and lasting memory cell formation. Codon optimization yielded an ideal CAI value of 0.952 and a GC content of 57.15%, confirming high potential for recombinant expression. Conclusions: This study presents a novel multi-epitope vaccine candidate against reovirus, designed to elicit broad cellular and humoral immunity. Comprehensive in silico analyses confirm its structural stability, potent interaction with innate immune receptors, and high potential for expression. These findings provide a strong rationale for further wet-lab studies to validate its efficacy and advance it as a promising prophylactic candidate.
