Synthesis, optimization, DFT/TD-DFT and COX/LOX docking of new Schiff base N'-((9-ethyl-9H-carbazol-1-yl)methylene)naphthalene-2-sulfonohydrazide

Condensing naphthalene-2-sulfonylhydrazide with 9-ethyl-9H-carbazole-1-carbaldehyde enabled to prepare the N'-((9-ethyl-9H-carbazol-1-yl)methylene)naphthalene-2-sulfonohydrazide as new Schiff base (S.B.)  ligand with a high yield. A wide range of physicochemical measurements, such as CHN-elemental analysis, UV-Vis., NMR, FT-IR, and mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) were used to extensively investigate the structural properties of the prepared S.B. ligand. Moreover, the highest level of B3LYB/DFT also served to optimize the 3D structure of the S.B, the experimental optical UV-Vis absorption measurements was compared to the theoretical DFT/TD-DFT study under identical conditions using the same solvent. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory possible future capability was evaluated via the LOX/COX molecular docking against the desired S.B. ligand

Role of Nemolizumab and Omalizumab in management of atopic dermatitis: A review

BackgroundNemolizumab (CIM331) is a monoclonal antibody that binds the IL-31 receptor α component. This inhibits IL-31 from acting on neurons that constrains the initialization of the sense of pruritus in cases of atopic dermatitis.AimsTo summarize the results of reported studies evaluating the role of nemolizumab and omalizumab in management of atopic dermatitis.Methods This is a systematic review was carried out, including PubMed, Google Scholar, and EBSCO that examining randomized controlled trials, observational, and experimental studies which study role of nemolizumab in management of atopic dermatitis.Results The review included 8 randomized studies reported efficacy of both nemolizumab and omalizumab for management of atopic dermatitis.ConclusionOther studies with large numbers of patients with AD are necessary to define the adverse effects of both drugs in the treatment of AD

The Role of Glutamine-Rich Region of Candida Albicans Tec1p in Mediating Morphological Transition and Invasive Growth

Hyphal growth and the transcriptional regulation to the host environment are key issues during the pathogenesis of C. albicans. Tec1p is the C. albicans homolog of a TEA transcription factor family, which share a conserved DNA-binding TEA domain in their N-terminal. In order to define a structure-function relationship of the C. albicans Tec1p protein, we constructed several mutations on the N terminal, C terminal or in the TEA binding domain itself by homologous recombination technology. The modifications in the open reading frame of TEC1 were tested for reconstitution of the morphogenetic development of the tec1/tec1 mutant strain CaAS12. Mutation in the TEA consensus sequence did not confer transition to hyphae whereas the reconstitution of the full-length Tec1p has reconstituted hyphal development. A deletion in one of glutamine-rich regions either in the Tec1p N-terminal or the C-terminal in regions of 53-212 or 637–744 aa, respectively, did not restore morphological development in mutant CaAS12 strain. Whereas, the reconstitution with Tec1p mutants other than the glutamate-rich region has restored the morphogenetic switch. Additionally, the deletion of the glutamine-rich region has attenuated the invasive growth and the heat shock resistance of C. albicans. In conclusion, we show that a glutamine-rich region of Tec1p is essential for the hyphal development and mediating adaptation to the host environment of C. albicans
