Pharmacokinetic and molecular docking studies to pyrimidine drug using MnO nanoparticles to explore potential anti-Alzheimer activity.

Alzheimer disease (AD) is the cause of dementia and accounts for 60-80% cases. Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α) is a multifunctional cytokine that provides resistance to infections, inflammation, and cancer. It developed as a prospective therapeutic target against multiple autoimmune and inflammatory disorders.

Synthesis of substituted thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dithiones and their S-glycoside analogues as potential antiviral and antibacterial agents.

Previously, we synthesized and evaluated several thienopyrimidine derivatives containing heterocyclic ring substituents linked to the pyrimidine-2-thione nucleus at C-2 by a two- to four-atom spacer as potential anti-HIV-1 and antimicrobial agents. Also, from the literature, S-substituted pyrimidin-4-ones A and B exhibited interesting anti-HIV-1 activity.

S- and C-nucleosidoquinazoline as new nucleoside analogs with potential analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity.

Thioglycosides and C-glycosides have received considerable attention, because they are widely employed as biological inhibitors, inducers and ligands for affinity chromatography of carbohydrate-processing enzymes and proteins. Moreover, they are promising candidates in synthetic carbohydrate chemistry as convenient and versatile glycosyl donors. Among these glycosyl donors are the thioglycosyl and N-glycosyl heterocycles that are sufficiently stable under a variety of reaction conditions and have the ability to be readily converted into a variety of other functionalities.
