Discovery of oral chemotherapeutic reversal agents for treating multidrug resistance cancer.

The major limitation of cancer treatment is multidrug resistance (MDR), which leads to the inactivation of chemotherapeutic drugs and greater than 90% mortality. To solve this ordeal, we applied ligand-based drug design and bioiosteric replacement strategy from an indazole to a pyrazole ring to discover compounds 27 and 43 with good potential for reversing drug resistance in combination with paclitaxel, and their reversal fold values were 53.2 and 51.

Design of an Artificial Intelligence of Things-Based Sesame Oil Evaluator for Quality Assessment Using Gas Sensors and Deep Learning Mechanisms.

Traditional oil quality measurement is mostly based on chemical indicators such as acid value, peroxide value, and -anisidine value. This process requires specialized knowledge and involves complex steps. Hence, this study designs and proposes a Sesame Oil Quality Assessment Service Platform, which is composed of an Intelligent Sesame Oil Evaluator (ISO Evaluator) and a Cloud Service Platform.

Design and synthesis of pyrazole derivatives against neutrophilic inflammation.

Neutrophils are the most abundant immune cells. However, neutrophil dysregulation leads to acute and chronic inflammation and is involved in various diseases. The aim of this study was to develop anti-inflammatory agents in human neutrophils.

Novel (-)-arctigenin derivatives inhibit signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 phosphorylation and P-glycoprotein function resensitizing multidrug resistant cancer cells in vitro and in vivo.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is considered one of the significant chemotherapy failures of cancer patients and resulting in tumor recurrence and refractory cancer. The collateral sensitivity phenomenon is suggested as a potential alternative therapy for coring multidrug resistance in cancer. To achieve better effects and reduce toxicity, a polypharmacology strategy was applied.
