Synthesis, Antifungal Ergosterol Inhibition, Antibiofilm Activities, and Molecular Docking on β-Tubulin and Sterol 14-Alpha Demethylase along with DFT-Based Quantum Mechanical Calculation of Pyrazole Containing Fused Pyridine-Pyrimidine Derivatives.

Multidrug-resistant fungal infections have become much more common in recent years, especially in immune-compromised patients. Therefore, researchers and pharmaceutical professionals have focused on the development of novel antifungal agents that can tackle the problem of resistance. In continuation to this, a novel series of pyrazole-bearing pyrido[2,3-]pyrimidine-2,4(1,3)-dione derivatives (-) have been developed.

Design, synthesis, antimicrobial activity, DFT, and molecular docking studies of pyridine-pyrazole-based dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazoles against various bacterial and fungal targets.

Antimicrobial resistance which is increasing at an alarming rate is a severe public health issue worldwide. Hence, the development of novel antibiotics is an urgent need as microbes have developed resistance against available antibiotics. In search of novel antimicrobial agents, a convenient route for the preparation of substituted 3-(1-phenyl-3-(p-tolyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1-(2-phenyl-5-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-3(2H)-yl)prop-2-en-1-ones (6a-6o) has been adopted by using pyridine-3-carbohydrazide and various aromatic aldehydes.

Design and synthesis of some novel hybrid molecules based on 4-thiazolidinone bearing pyridine-pyrazole scaffolds: molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations of its major constituent onto DNA gyrase inhibition.

Due to multidrug resistance, microbial infections have become significant on a global level. As infections caused by several resistant bacteria and fungi severely harm mankind, scientists have developed new antibiotics to combat these infections. In order to develop novel antimicrobial agents, a series of 4-thiazolidinone-based 5-arylidene hybrids (5a-o) have been designed and synthesized to evaluate their antibacterial and antifungal activities.

Conventional and microwave-assisted organic synthesis of novel antimycobacterial agents bearing furan and pyridine hybrids.

Drug resistance in tuberculosis poses a serious threat to humanity because currently available antitubercular drugs are ineffective against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis). As a result, the approval of Bedaquiline and Delamanid for the treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis was accelerated.
