Estudos de síntese de dendrons dirigidos de NFOH com potencial antichagásico e modelagem molecular do receptor de manose de macrófagos

A doença de Chagas, considerada doença extremamente negligenciada, acomete mais de 6 milhões de pessoas ao redor do mundo e mais de 75 milhões de pessoas vivem sob risco da doença. Considerada endêmica em 21 países da América Latina. No Brasil, grassa, sobretudo, na região Norte, especialmente, ...

Development of inclusion complex based on cyclodextrin and oxazolidine derivative

Abstract Oxazolidine derivatives (OxD) have been described as third-line antibiotics and antitumoral agents. The inclusion complexes based on cyclodextrin could improve the solubility and bioavailability of these compounds. A novel synthetic OxD was used, and its inclusion complexes were based on 2-hydro...

Cytotoxic activity of extracts from Tecoma species and isolated lignans

Abstract A phytochemical study of Tecoma genus (Bignoniaceae) was accomplished by antitumor activity of ethanolic extracts. Species of this genus are composed of small shrubs often used as ornamental plants. The Tecoma stans species is used in folk medicine for different purposes. Recent work shows in vi...

Planejamento, síntese, modelagem molecular e avaliação biológica de novos potenciais inibidores duais HDAC/ MMP não-hidroxamatos

A inibição de alvos específicos como metaloproteinase de matriz (MMP) e histona desacetilase (HDAC) é amplamente estudada para impedir o progresso do câncer. Foi estabelecido que a inibição concomitante de MMP e HDAC é eficaz no combate de tumores sólidos e hematológicos. Ambos os alvos possuem...

Compostos carbonílicos α, β-insaturados e hidrazonas sintéticas como antiparasitários

Apesar da grande relevância médica e social, e por serem responsáveis por grande parte das mortes em países subdesenvolvidos e em desenvolvimento as doenças negligenciadas (DN), ainda, não apresentam terapêutica eficaz. Dentre as diversas DN, doenças como a doença de Chagas, a Leishmaniose visce...

Biological activity of synthesized 5-{1-[(4-chlorophenyl)sulfonyl]piperidin-4-yl}-2-mercapto-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole derivatives demonstrated by in silico and BSA binding studies

We synthesized a series of compounds bearing pharmacologically important 1,3,4-oxadiazole and piperidine moieties. Spectral data analysis by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR and EI-MS was used to elucidate the structures of the synthesized molecules. Docking studies explained the different types of interaction of the...

Development, in vitro biocompatibility, and antitumor efficacy of acetic acid-modified Cordyceps sinensis polysaccharide nanoparticle drug delivery system

Docetaxel-loaded acetic acid conjugated Cordyceps sinensis polysaccharide (DTX-AA-CSP) nanoparticles were prepared through dialysis and their release rates in vitro, particle sizes, zeta potentials, drug loading capacities, and encapsulation efficiencies were characterized for the synthesis of AA-modifie...

Effect of prodigiosin on the alleviation of the intestinal inflammation of weaned rats based on 1H-NMR spectroscopy study and biochemistry indexes

Weaning results in intestinal dysfunction, mucosal atrophy, transient anorexia, and intestinal barrier defects. In this study, the effect of prodigiosin (PG) on the intestinal inflammation of weaned rats was investigated by using 1H-NMR spectroscopy and biochemistry indexes to regulate the intestinal met...

3T magnetic resonance spectroscopy as a powerful diagnostic modality for assessment of thyroid nodules

ABSTRACT Objective: Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a powerful tool for structural studies of chemical compounds and biomolecules and also documented promising findings as a potential imaging technology in thyroid oncology. This prospective study was to ascertain the clinical significance of 3 ...

7-epi-griffonilide, a new lactone from Bauhinia pentandra: complete 1H and 13C chemical shift assignments

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (1), 2017
ABSTRACT A new lactone, 7-epi-griffonilide (1), and six known compounds, 2, 3a - 3c, 4a and 4b, were isolated from the leaves of Bauhinia pentandra (Fabaceae). The structures elucidation of 1 and 2 were based on detailed 2D NMR techniques and spectral comparison with related compounds, leading to complet...
