Synthesis, biological evaluation, and in silico studies of phenyl naphthalene-2-sulfonate derived thiosemicarbazones as potential carbonic anhydrase inhibitors.

A series of novel phenyl naphthalene-2-sulfonate-based thiosemicarbazones (5a-v) were synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against human carbonic anhydrases I and II (hCA I and hCA II). Compounds 5d and 5p demonstrated the highest inhibitory potency, with IC values of 4.32 ± 0.

Synthesis, and study of novel 1,3-diphenylurea derived Schiff bases as competitive α-glucosidase inhibitors.

Diabetes mellitus has become a major global health burden because of several related consequences, including heart disease, retinopathy, cataracts, metabolic syndrome, collapsed renal function, and blindness. In the recent study, thirty Schiff base derivatives of 1,3-diphenylurea were synthesized and their anti-diabetic activity was evaluated by targeting α-glucosidase. The compounds exhibited an overwhelming inhibitory potential for α-glucosidase with higher potency ranging from 2.

Synthesis, biological evaluation, and molecular modelling of substituted thiazolyl thiourea derivatives: A new class of prolyl oligopeptidase inhibitors.

Prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) is a compelling therapeutic target associated with aging and neurodegenerative disorders due to its pivotal role in neuropeptide processing. Despite initial promise demonstrated by early-stage POP inhibitors, their progress in clinical trials has been halted at Phase I or II. This impediment has prompted the pursuit of novel inhibitors.

Synthesis of the chromone-thiosemicarbazone scaffold as promising α-glucosidase inhibitors: An in vitro and in silico approach toward antidiabetic drug design.

Diabetes is a serious metabolic disorder affecting individuals of all age groups and prevails globally due to the failure of previous treatments. This study aims to address the most prevalent form of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by reporting on the design, synthesis, and in vitro as well as in silico evaluation of chromone-based thiosemicarbazones as potential α-glucosidase inhibitors. In vitro experiments showed that the tested compounds were significantly more potent than the standard acarbose, with the lead compound 3n exhibiting an IC value of 0.

The Efficacy and Safety of Apremilast in the Management of Psoriatic Arthritis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory skin disease that is associated with other conditions, one of them being psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Apremilast, a phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor, displayed promising results in multiple trials for patients with PsA. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to showcase its efficacy and safety when compared to placebo.
