dc.description.abstractIn the present study, different extracts obtained in different solvents from the fruits collected from the Aronia melanocarpa (Michx.) were prepared. The inhibition performances of these extracts on the inhibition of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme were checked via both theoretical and experimental analyses. Although all extracts used in experimental studies showed high inhibitory activity, it was observed that the extract obtained in methanol had higher inhibitory activity than the others. According to the enzyme activity results presented in the light of Ellman method, IC50 values were found between 0.0311-0.0857 mg/mL. Conceptual Density Functional Theory (CDFT) and Molecular Docking calculations were performed to identify the component or components of the extract with high inhibitory activity. Conceptual Density Functional Theoretical based data commented through popular electronic structure principles such as Maximum Hardness and Minimum Electrophilicity Principles showed that the most reactive one among studied dominant components of the extract is Malvin molecule. The interactions between studied molecules and AChE and mechanisms of these interactions were illuminated via Molecular Docking analyses and ADMET studies. As a result, it was shown that the most reactive molecule Malvin (with lowest hardness and the highest electrophilicity) interacts more powerful with AChE compared to other molecules. Within the framework of the theoretical analyses made, it was proposed that in the design and introduction of new AChE inhibitors, structures with low hardness and high electrophilicity values should be preferred.
