Exploration of 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoline derivatives as human carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: Synthesis, biological evaluation and in silico studies.

The human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) IX and XII isoforms are overexpressed in hypoxic conditions, contributing to cancer. Lack of isoform selectivity has been one of the main challenges associated with the existing drugs targeting hCAs. Hence, the development of alternative approaches, such as tail approach to develop more selective hCA IX and XII inhibitors is need of the hour.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of new naphthalimide-thiourea derivatives as potent antimicrobial agents active against multidrug-resistant and .

The emergence of antibiotic resistance to and , particularly MRSA, VRSA, and drug-resistant tuberculosis, poses a serious threat to human health. Towards discovering new antibacterial agents, we designed and synthesized a series of new naphthalimide-thiourea derivatives and evaluated them against a panel of bacterial strains consisting of , , , , and various mycobacterial pathogens. Compounds 4a, 4l, 4m, 4n, 4q, 9f, 9l, 13a, 13d, 13e, 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d, and 17e demonstrated potent antibacterial activity against with MIC 0.

Leveraging new opportunities and advances in high-pressure homogenization to design non-dairy foods.

High-pressure homogenization (HPH) and ultrahigh-pressure homogenization (UHPH) are emerging food processing techniques for stabilizing emulsions and food components under the pressure range from 60 to 400 MPa. Apart from this, they also support increasing nutritional profile, food preservation, and functionality enhancement. Even though the food undergoes the shortest processing operation, the treatment leads to modification of physical, chemical, and techno-functional properties, in addition to the formation of micro-sized particles.

A comprehensive review on potential therapeutic inhibitors of nosocomial Acinetobacter baumannii superbugs.

Acinetobacter baumannii, a Gram-negative, glucose non-fermentative coccobacilli are responsible for causing a wide range of opportunistic nosocomial infections, thus listed as a WHO "critical priority pathogen", for which identification and development of new antibacterial agents are an urgent unmet medical need. The current review attempts to present an overview of various mechanisms (enzymatic and non-enzymatic), virulence factors responsible for A. baumannii resistance.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Coumarin Carboxamides as Selective and Potent Inhibitors of Carbonic Anhydrases IX and XII.

Background: Carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.
