Anti-tumor efficacy and safety of AEV01 in preclinical glioblastoma and hepatocellular carcinoma models.

Glioblastoma (GB) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are aggressive cancers with poor prognoses, often leading to less than a year of survival. Therapeutic resistance underscores the need for novel therapeutic strategies. AEV01, a specialized lipophilic extract derived from the roots of Picrorhiza kurroa, has shown promise as a potential anti-cancer agent.

Efficacy and Safety of Eberconazole vs Sertaconazole in Localised Tinea Infection.

Background: Topical antifungals especially azole group of drugs are effective agents in the treatment of dermatophytoses producing 100% clinical and mycological cure. Each of them vary having specific characteristics to tackle several clinical challenges like high relapse rate, recurrences and quality of life.

Aims And Objectives: To compare the efficacy and safety of Eberconazole and Sertaconazole in infection.

4-(N-Phenyl-N'-substituted benzenesulfonyl)-6-(4-hydroxyphenyl)quinolines as inhibitors of mammalian target of rapamycin.

A series of 4-(N-phenyl-N'-substituted benzenesulfonyl)-6-(4-hydroxyphenyl)quinolines was designed, synthesized and evaluated for their biological potential as anticancer agents by screening the molecules against panel of five human cancer cell lines viz. HL-60, MiaPaCa-2, HCT116, PC-3 and HEP-G2. The series has shown good mTOR inhibitory activity at 0.

DMSO/I2 mediated C-C bond cleavage of α-ketoaldehydes followed by C-O bond formation: a metal-free approach for one-pot esterification.

A novel and efficient I2/DMSO mediated metal-free strategy is presented for the direct C-C bond cleavage of aryl-/heteroaryl- or aliphatic α-ketoaldehydes by C2-decarbonylation and C1-carbonyl oxidation to give the corresponding carboxylic acids followed by esterification in one pot, offering excellent yields in both the steps. Here, DMSO acts as the oxygen source/oxidant and this reaction works very well under both conventional heating and microwave irradiation. This is a very simple and convenient protocol.

Facile access to amides and hydroxamic acids directly from nitroarenes.

A new method for synthesis of amides and hydroxamic acids from nitroarenes and aldehydes is described. The MnO2 catalyzed thermal deoxygenation of nitrobenzene resulted in formation of a reactive nitroso intermediate which on reaction with aldehydes provided amides and hydroxamic acids. The thermal neat reaction in the presence of 0.
