Computational Investigation of Montelukast and Its Structural Derivatives for Binding Affinity to Dopaminergic and Serotonergic Receptors: Insights from a Comprehensive Molecular Simulation
<b>Background/Objectives</b>: Montelukast (MLK), a leukotriene receptor antagonist, has been associated with neuropsychiatric side effects. This study aimed to rationally modify MLK’s structure to reduce these risks by optimizing its interactions with dopamine D2 (DRD2) and serotonin 5-H...
