The compounds were prepared the metathesis reaction between the corresponding phenothiazine hydrochloride salts and sodium docusate or sodium NSAID salts and were obtained as liquid co-crystals with various degrees of ionization. The self-diffusion coefficients of several derivatives in 0.

Breast cancer (BC) is the second most frequent type of cancer for both sexes combined, after lung cancer. Triple-negative BC (TNBC) molecular subtype is characterized by lack of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) immunoexpression or amplification and represent 10-20% of all BC cases. The issue of the present study was to analyze the associations between programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) immunoexpression and distribution of stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (stTILs) combined with clinico-morphological features of patients with TNBC.
