Next-Generation Carbazole-Linked 1,2,4-Triazole-Thione Derivatives: Strategic Design, Synthesis, Molecular Docking, and Evaluation of Antidiabetic Potential.

Currently, available therapies for diabetes cannot achieve normal sugar values in a high percentage of treated patients. This work synthesized a series of carbazole-triazole-thione derivatives, and their potential antidiabetic activity was investigated against the key diabetic enzymes α-amylase and glycosidase. Normal human hepatic stellate cells (LX-2) were employed to assess their cytotoxicity and safety, followed by in vivo testing to investigate the hypoglycemic effect of the most promising agent.

Phytochemical composition and antidiabetic, anti-obesity, antioxidant, and cytotoxic activities of Carthamus tinctorius seed oil.

Carthamus tinctorius L. (Safflower) is widely used in traditional Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabian, and Persian herbal medicine to treat metabolic diseases. This study aimed to characterize C.

Transethosomal system for enhanced transdermal delivery and therapeutic effect of caryophyllene oxide.

Aim: This study focuses on the design and investigation a transethosomal formulation for enhanced topical delivery and improved analgesic activity of caryophyllene oxide. In addition, this work explores new potential mechanisms of analgesic activity of the active compound including alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isooxazole-propionic acid (AMPA) and Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2).

Methods: The transethosomal system containing various caryophyllene concentrations was prepared.

Phytochemical Profiling and Bioactive Properties of Essential Oils from Endemic Palestinian Satureja thymbrifolia.

Despite several studies on the Satureja L. genus, the chemical composition and biological activities of the traditional medicinal plant Satureja thymbrifolia (White Thyme), a Palestinian endemic species, are still unknown. It grows in arid regions and is used by Bedouins as a traditional medicinal herb.

Integrative bioinformatic and experimental analysis of benzoylbenzodioxol derivatives: hypoglycemic potential in diabetic mice.

We investigated the hypoglycemic activity and pharmacokinetic study of two synthesized benzoyl benzodioxol derivatives, compound I (methyl 2-(6-(2-bromobenzoyl)benzo[][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)acetate), and compound II, 2-(6-benzoylbenzo[][1,3]dioxol-5-yl)acetic acid, which showed very strong α-amylase inhibiting activity in our previous study. Then, diabetes was induced by the injection of streptozotocin to mice. The molecular docking simulations and analyses of density functional theory analyses were conducted to study the binding interactions with human pancreatic alpha-amylase, and their pharmacokinetic properties were further evaluated by ADMET profiling.
