The directed modification of biologically active substances is one of the main approaches to molecular design and is an urgent problem in medicinal chemistry. The presence of free amino groups in the chitosan molecule makes it possible to synthesize various classes of chitosans, which exhibit increased activity compared to the original chitosan. The traditional methods for modifying chitosans based on covalent bonding formation with chemical groups, which is usually difficult to perform compared to quaternization. Since both chitosan and pyrazoles exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities, the aim of this work is to synthesize 4-nitro-3(5)- pyrazole carboxylic acids and to study their anti-burn activity based on prepared quaternary ammonium salts......

New series of pyrimidine, pyridine and thiophene derivatives were prepared by reaction of appropriate 3-oxobutanamides with urea, thiourea, active methylene compounds, arylidines, salicyaldehyde, chalcones, benzyl isothiocyanate and aminopyrazoles. Compounds 2a, 3a, 3c and 9 show activity against some bacterial species, whereas, no activity was observed for compounds 3b, 4, 5, 7e, 7f, 10 and 11 against all bacterial species..... ReadMore -

The main objective of the current work is to study the effect of super disintegrants in combination for the drug release of Tolvaptan. HCl by developing Fast Disintegrating Tablets (FDT). Tolvaptan. HCl, a newer aquaretic sorvaptan. It mainly used for the effective management of Hyponatremia associated with Syndrome of Inappropriate Anti Diuretic Hormone (SIDAH). Mouth dissolving formulations of Tolvaptan. HCl were prepared using different quantities of Kollidon & Primellose employed as Superdisintegrants by Direct Compression technique. Amount of super disintegrants need to get desired drug release was labeled as factors. Disintegration time, wetting time, times taken for dissolution were labeled as responses. Nine trials were formulated as per 32 factorial design and characterized for quality control parameters. Data obtained from..... ReadMore -

Flutamide is used to treat prostate cancer, which acts by blocking the action of exogenous testosterone binding through its androgen receptor. This study was designed and performed to investigate the impact of the Trivedi Effect® -Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment on the structural properties and the isotopic abundance ratio of flutamide using LC-MS and GC-MS spectroscopy. Flutamide sample was divided into control and treated parts. Only the treated flutamide received the Trivedi Effect® -Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment remotely by a famous Biofield Energy Healer, Mahendra Kumar Trivedi. The LC-MS spectra of both the samples at Retention time (Rt ) ~3.4 minutes exhibited the mass of the deprotonated molecular ion peak at m/z 275 [M-H]-. The peak area of the Biofield Energy Treated flutamide was significantly increas..... ReadMore -

More than half of the world’s population relies on traditional medicine and the main role of traditional medicine including the use of plant extract and their active constituents. Among them Adiantum capillus veneris Linn. A small size wooden herb plant of the family Adiantaceae commonly called Parsioshan, Hansraj, Maidenhair fern, and Ghodkhuri. The plant has leaves, stem, and root that have been reported for possessing antioxidant, anti-microbial, anti-fungal, anti-diabetic, antipyretic, wound healing action and it is contraindicated in pregnancy due to its anti-implantation effect. It is most common in the treatment of hair fall and skin disease. The screening of phytochemical analysis showed the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, cardiac glycosides, terpenoids, steroids, and reducing sugars. The present revi.....

Recently, noncanonical roles of Multi-tRNA Synthetase Complex (MSC) proteins including Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase Interacting Multifunctional Proteins (AIMPs) have been revealed and served as a chance to develop novel therapeutics with their unique mechanisms. The disease specific splicing variant of AIMP2 (AIMP2-DX2) has recently been considered a novel promising therapeutic target in several cancers. However, few studies on developing small molecule inhibitors of AIMP2-DX2 have been reported. In this paper, the brief summary for AIMP2-DX2 as a medicinal chemistry target, has been demonstrated...... ReadMore -

The present study was carried out in the newly established animal production farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, Sohag University, in order to survey the mite species inhabiting manure and dung hills. The study showed the occurrence of six species of mites (i.e., Macrocheles solimani Hafez, El-Badry & Nasr, 1985; Macrocheles merdarius (Berlese, 1889); Uropodiaspis aegyptiacusAhmed, 1984; Siteroptes manure Soliman & Kandeel, 1986; Histiostoma arcuatus Negm, 2007 and Hormosianoetus mahunkai Eraky & Shoker, 1993. The checklist reported 120 mite species pertaining to 18 families and 53 genera. Interestingly, the largest diversities of mite species were recorded to the Mesostigmata (50 species) and the Acaridida (45 species). Therefore, it is clear that, there are large numbers of mite pests (Acaridida species) inhabiting manure in Egypt..... ReadMore
