X-ray structural analysis and antitumor activity of new salicylic acid derivatives
This Thesis project is going to be situated in my home town Östersund, 600 kilometers north from Stockholm.It´s a small town with 60 000 people and it is the only city of the region Jämtland in Norrland, Sweden.In the city centre of Östersund there is one existing bus terminal station where the buses arrive with people from the entire region.The task for this Thesis project is to rebuild the existing bus station in Östersund where the actual terminal building is going to be completely demolished and the entire block within the current bus stops is going to be rearranged.The topography of the terminal area is now dividing the regional buses that arrives on the upper level from the city buses that stops at the lower level. Therefore the main challenge of the new proposal is how one would strengthen the junction between these two flows of people and how a new architecture could enable the encounter between the countryside and the urban city.Detta examensprojekt kommer att vara belägen i min hemstad Östersund, 600 kilometer norr om Stockholm. Det är en liten stad med 60 000 personer och det är den enda staden i regionen Jämtland, Norrland. I centrum av Östersund finns en befintlig bussterminalen där bussarna anländer med folk från hela regionen. Uppgiften för detta projekt är att bygga om den befintliga busstationen i Östersund topografin på terminalområdet i dagsläget separerar de regionala bussarna som anländer på den övre nivån från stadsbussarna som stannar på en lägre nivå. Den största utmaningen i det nya förslaget är hur man istället skulle kunna stärka förbindelsen mellan dessa två flöden av människor och hur en ny arkitektur kan möjliggöra mötet mellan glesbyggd och den urbana staden

The influence of 17-oxo- and 17-hydroxy-16,17-secoestratriene derivatives on estrogen receptor
Since many of newly synthesised D-secoestratriene derivatives showed antiestrogenic effect, with almost a total loss of estrogenic activity, we studied the effects of some of these compounds on estrogen receptors (ER), the translocation of the estrogen-ER complexes formed in presence of competing substances into the nucleus, as well as the binding of these complexes to DNA. The results of uterotrophic effects of analysed derivatives are in agreement with the influence of these compounds on activity and binding parameters of estrogen receptors. Namely, compounds that show relatively high antiestrogenic activity predominantly increase K-d and inhibit translocation to nuclei of radioactive complexes formed in their presence. On the other hand, compounds that do not significantly change binding parameters of estrogen receptors do not show antiestrogenic effect in in vivo experiments
EHMTI-0265. Premonitory symptoms in episodic migraine: a multicenter questionnaire study of serbian headache society
Health-promoting phytochemicals of Italian common wheat varieties grown under low-input agricultural management
BACKGROUND: The increasing interest in organic food products and environmental friendly practices has emphasised the
importance of selecting crop varieties suitable for the low-input sector. Moreover, in recent years the relationship between
diet and human health has gained much attention among consumers. The aim of this study was to comparatively evaluate the
agronomic performance and the nutrient and phytochemical composition of old and modern Italian wheat genotypes grown
under low-input management.
RESULTS: Research highlighted that several old wheat genotypes were comparable to the modern ones in terms of agronomic
performance and nutrient content. Genotype and environmental conditions (growing season), as well as their interaction,
significantly affected the phytochemical composition of wheat grains for most of the analysed bioactive compounds. High
variability was observed among the wheat genotypes for dietary fibre (154.7\u2013183.3 g kg 121), polyphenol (1.94\u20132.77 mg g 121),
tocopherol (9.1\u201321.2mg kg 121) and carotenoid (701.4\u20133243 \u3bcg kg 121) content.
CONCLUSION: The comparative study of old and modern wheat varieties highlighted that, under low-input conditions, ancient
genotypes may equal modern ones in terms of agronomic traits and additionally provide nutraceutical value-added wheat
grains. The most promising ancient varieties for the unique phytochemical profiles are Gentil rosso, Marzuolo d\u2019aqui and

Synthesis, crystal structure and antiaromatase activity of 17-halo-16,17-seco-5-androstene derivatives
Antioxidant and cytotoxic activity of mono- And bissalicylic acid derivatives
A simple synthesis of mono- and bis-salicylic acid derivatives 1-10 by the
transesterification of methyl salicylate (methyl 2-hydroxybenzoate) with
3-oxapentane-1,5-diol, 3,6- dioxaoctane-1,8-diol,
3,6,9-trioxaundecane-1,11-diol, propane-1,2-diol or 1-aminopropan- 2-ol in
alkaline conditions is reported. All compounds were tested in vitro on three
malignant cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, PC-3) and one non-tumor cell line
(MRC- 5). Strong cytotoxicity against prostate PC-3 cancer cells expressed
compounds 3, 4, 6, 9 and 10, all with the IC50 less than 10 ÎĽmol/L, which
were 11-27 times higher than the cytotoxicity of antitumor drug doxorubicin.
All tested compounds were not toxic against the non-tumor MRC-5 cell line.
Antioxidant activity of the synthesized derivatives was also evaluated.
Compounds 2, 5 and 8 were better OH radical scavengers than commercial
antioxidants BHT and BHA. The synthesized compounds showed satisfactory
scavenger activity, which was studied by QSAR modeling. A good correlation
between the experimental variables IC50 DPPH and IC50 OH and MTI (molecular
topological indices) molecular descriptors and CAA (accessible Connolly
solvent surface area) for the new compounds 1, 3, and 5 was observed
