Synthesis, anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity of 4-(substituted benzylamino)-5-substituted phenyl-3-amino-1,2,4-triazole derivatives

A novel series of 4-(substituted benzylamino)-5-substituted phenyl-3-amino-1, 2, 4-triazole derivatives were synthesized by reaction of 5-substituted phenyl-3,4-diamino-1,2,4-triazole with different aromatic aldehydes. The structures of the compounds were synthesized and characterised by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, Mass and IR Spectra. The title compounds were investigated for anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities using carrageenan induced rat paw edema and acetic induced writhing test, respectively. All the test compounds exhibited significant activity, compounds IVg, IVh and IVb showed more potent anti-inflammatory activity when compared with standard (Ibuprofen). All the test compounds were significantly (p < 0.05) reduced writhings induced by the acetic acid in mice.Colegio de Farmacéuticos de la Provincia de Buenos Aire

Antioxidant, analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of Leucas cephalotes (Roxb.ex Roth) Spreng

The whole plant of the methanolic extract from Leucas cephalotes was screened for invitro antioxidant (using the DPPH method), invivo analgesic (using hot plate test in mice) and anti-inflammatory (using rat paw edema test) activities. The methanolic extract of Leucas cephalotes (MELC) scavenged the DPPH radicals in a dose-dependent manner. The IC50 value to scavenge DPPH radicals was found to be 421.3µg/ml. A significant (pO extrato metanólico total de Leucas cephalotes foi submetido à triagem para as atividades antioxidante in vitro (utilizando o método DPPH), analgésica (utilizando teste da placa quente, em camundongos) e antiinflamatória (utilizando teste de edema da pata de rato), nas doses de 200 e 400 mg/kg. O extrato metanólico de Leucas cephalotes (MELC) inativou radicais difenil picril hidrazila (DPPH) de forma dose-dependente. O IC50 para essa atividade foi de 421,3 µg/mL. Observou-se atividade analgésica significativa (

The International Natural Product Sciences Taskforce (INPST) and the power of Twitter networking exemplified through #INPST hashtag analysis

Background: The development of digital technologies and the evolution of open innovation approaches have enabled the creation of diverse virtual organizations and enterprises coordinating their activities primarily online. The open innovation platform titled "International Natural Product Sciences Taskforce" (INPST) was established in 2018, to bring together in collaborative environment individuals and organizations interested in natural product scientific research, and to empower their interactions by using digital communication tools. Methods: In this work, we present a general overview of INPST activities and showcase the specific use of Twitter as a powerful networking tool that was used to host a one-week "2021 INPST Twitter Networking Event" (spanning from 31st May 2021 to 6th June 2021) based on the application of the Twitter hashtag #INPST. Results and Conclusion: The use of this hashtag during the networking event period was analyzed with Symplur Signals (https://www.symplur.com/), revealing a total of 6,036 tweets, shared by 686 users, which generated a total of 65,004,773 impressions (views of the respective tweets). This networking event's achieved high visibility and participation rate showcases a convincing example of how this social media platform can be used as a highly effective tool to host virtual Twitter-based international biomedical research events

Cardioprotective Activity of N′′,N′′′-Bis[5-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-indol-3-ylidene]carbonohydrazide Derivative against Doxorubicin Induced Cardiotoxicity in Rats

The present study was aimed at evaluating the cardioprotective effect of novel synthetic N′′,N′′′-bis[5-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-indol-3-ylidene]carbonohydrazide derivative, by estimating the various biomarkers like creatine kinase-myoglobin (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and triglycerides (TG) in plasma and antioxidants like catalase, superoxide dismutase in heart tissue homogenate, and histopathological examination of heart tissues. The results showed the significant (P<0.05) dose dependent decrease in elevated cardiotoxic biomarkers CK-MB, LDH, AST, and TG levels. The histopathological studies of heart tissues showed mild degeneration of muscle bundles and less interstitial edematous changes. The results showed the significant (P<0.05) dose dependent increase in antioxidant enzymes catalase and superoxide dismutase in heart tissue homogenates. These observations enable us to conclude that N′′,N′′′-bis[5-methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-indol-3-ylidene]carbonohydrazide has cardioprotective activity against doxorubicin induced cardiotoxicity

Microwave assisted synthesis, characterization of some new isatin and thiophene derivatives as cytotoxic and chemopreventive agents

In obtaining some new cytotoxic and chemopreventive agents with potent antiproliferative activity against cancer cells, a series of new β-isatin aldehyde-N,N′-thiocarbohydrazone, bis-β-isatin thiocarbohydrazones, bis-β-isatin carbohydrazones, N,2-bis(thiophen-2-ylmethylidene) thiocarbohydrazone and N,2-bis(thiophen-2-ylmethylidene) carbohydrazone derivatives was synthesized by microwave oriented reaction and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized based on spectral (FT-IR, NMR, MS) analyses. The inhibitory effects of synthesized compounds on the proliferation of murine leukemia cells (L1210), human T-lymphocyte cells (CEM) and human cervix carcinoma cells (HeLa) were assayed by using MTT assay. The compounds were also tested for their inhibitory effects on Epstein-Barr virus early antigen (EBV-EA) activation induced by 12-Otetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). In vitro evaluation of these schiff bases revealed mild to moderate cytotoxic activity in a dose dependent manner. The results of the in vitro inhibitory activities of synthetic compounds against EBVEA activation with IC50 ranges from 485-535 (mol ratio/32pmol/TPA). Chlorine group containing derivatives did not show increased inhibitory activity against tumor promoter TPA induction. Sulphur containing derivatives also did not show a high inhibitory potency in this system. © 2012 Bentham Science Publishers.status: publishe
