Synthesis, Characterization, and Evaluation of Difluoropyrido[4,3-b]indoles as Potential Agents for Acetylcholinesterase and Antiamnesic Activity.

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are currently the most widely prescribed drugs for Alzheimer's disease. The high potential of indole compounds in medicinal chemistry led us to discover a novel series of fluoroindole compounds. The synthesis and pharmacological analysis of the difluoropyrido[4,3-b]indoles 11-34 are described.

Crystal structure of 1'-ethyl-spiro[chroman-4,4'-imidazolidine]-2',5'-dione: a hydantoine derivative.

The title compound, C13H13N2O3, a hydantoin derivative, crystallized with two mol-ecules (A and B) in an asymmetric unit. In mol-ecule A, the imidazolidine ring is twisted about the C-N bond involving the spiro C atom, while in mol-ecule B this ring is flat (r.m.

Itolizumab provides sustained remission in plaque psoriasis: a 5-year follow-up experience.

There is an unmet need for psoriasis therapies that provide long-term remission. Itolizumab is a humanized recombinant anti-CD6 monoclonal antibody shown to be effective in psoriasis. We report a patient who received itolizumab in a phase 2 clinical trial, and experienced long-term remission.
