Article Synopsis
- Chromenes are compounds explored for their potential to inhibit topoisomerase and cytochrome enzymes, which are important in the growth of cancer and fungal cells, respectively.* -
- The study focused on synthesizing novel chromene derivatives and testing their anticancer activity, finding them to be more effective than established treatments like cisplatin and topotecan in certain cancer cell lines.* -
- Additionally, these compounds showed promising antifungal activity, with inhibitory concentrations comparable to fluconazole, and molecular docking studies indicated they could effectively interact with the target enzymes, suggesting their potential for further research.*
