Of the approximately 1,250,000 Indonesians affected by lupus (assuming a prevalence of 0.5% based on research by Kalim et al), very few of them realize that they have lupus. Research on compound content through computational technology has not been widely conducted in Indonesia. Binding affinity refers to the strength of interaction between a ligand/drug and its protein/receptor. The binding affinity value has an inverse relationship with its potency (Salahudeen and Nishtala, 2016). The smaller the binding affinity value is zero or the more negative it is, the stronger the bond and its potency in producing effects on the body (Das et al., 2016).In-silico experimental study of immunosuppressant activity of Fructose compounds against HAD11β1 and AKR1C3 receptors using PyRx and Biovia Discovery Studio software. From the results of the docking test through the PyRx application and visualization in the Biovia Discovery Studio application, the results of the binding affinity of the HSD11ß1 test and the comparator obtained the lowest result is on Test Ligand No. 09 in the amount of -5.1 kcal/mol and the results of the binding affinity of the AKR1C3 receptor test and the comparator obtained the lowest value is on the AKR1C3 test in the amount of -5. 2 kcal/mol At the statistical test stage with the independent sample T-test method, a significant effect was found between the test compound and the comparator on HSD11B1 and AKR1C3 receptors, namely with a result of 0.005 on HSD11B1 and 0.001 on AKR1C3. that further research needs to be done on the bioavaliability of fructose compounds in sugar cane plants as immunosuppressants because they see the potential Pa value which is above 0.7, namely at 0.763. with further research in the form of in vivo so that the bioavaliability of fructose compounds in sugar cane plants as immunosuppressants can be well developed.
