DFT and molecular dynamics studies of astaxanthin-metal ions (Cu(2+) and Zn(2+)) complex to prevent glycated human serum albumin from possible unfolding

Glycated human serum albumin (gHSA) undergoes conformational changes of proteins caused by free radicals. The glycation process results in a reduced ability of albumin as an endogenous scavenger in diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) patients. Astaxanthin (ASX) has been shown to prevent gHSA from experi...
