Background: High concentration protein formulation (HCPF) development needs to balance protein stability attributes such as conformational/colloidal stability, chemical stability, and solution properties such as viscosity and osmolality.

Methodology: A three-phase design is established in this work. In Phase 1, conformational and colloidal stability are measured by 384-well-based high-throughput (HT) biophysical screening while viscosity reduction screening is performed with HT viscosity screening.

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), remains a significant global health challenge due to the emergence of drug-resistant strains. This study targets Flavin-dependent thymidylate synthase (ThyX), an essential enzyme in the thymidylate biosynthesis pathway crucial for bacterial DNA replication. We utilized advanced computational techniques, including molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and interaction energy analysis, to examine the binding interactions and stability of various thiazole-thiadiazole compounds with Mtb ThyX.

This study reports the synthesis, characterization, and biological evaluation of a series of pyrazolyl-thiazole derivatives of thiophene. Seven compounds were synthesized and characterized using NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The antimicrobial activities of these derivatives were evaluated against various bacterial (, , , ) and fungal strains (, , , ), demonstrating significant inhibition zones and low minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC).

Tuberculosis remains a global health threat, with increasing infection rates and mortality despite existing anti-TB drugs. The present work focuses on the research findings regarding the development and evaluation of thiadiazole-linked thiazole derivatives as potential anti-tuberculosis agents. We present the synthesis data and confirm the compound structures using spectroscopic techniques.

In this study, we report the expeditious synthesis of ten new antifungal and antioxidant agents containing heterocyclic linked 7-arylidene indanone moiety. The solvent-free microwave technique, ample substrate scope, superfast synthesis, and very simple operation are noteworthy features of this protocol. Antifungal activities of the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated against four fungal strains namely Rhizophus oryzae, Mucor mucido, Aspergillus niger, and Candida albicans.

Searching novel, safe and effective anti-inflammatory agents has remained an evolving research enquiry in the mainstream of inflammatory disorders. In the present investigation series of thiazoles bearing pyrazole as a possible pharmacophore were synthesized and assessed for their anti inflammatory activity using in vitro and in vivo methods. In order to decipher the possible anti-inflammatory mechanism of action of the synthesized compounds, cyclooxygenase I and II (COX-I and COX-II) inhibition assays were also carried out.

Hepatic adenoma is a well-defined, benign, solitary tumor of the liver. In individuals with glycogen storage disease I, adenoma tends to occur at a relatively younger age and can be multiple (adenomatosis). Imaging plays a pivotal role in diagnosing hepatic adenoma and in differentiating adenoma from other focal hepatic lesions.

Ethno Pharmacological Relevance: Mimosa pudica, commonly known as touch-me-not, is used in folklore medicine in arresting bleeding and in skin diseases.

Aim: There was no scientific evidence justifying the use of Mimosa pudica, therefore the present study was aimed at evaluation of wound healing activity of the plant.

Materials And Methods: In the present study the roots of Mimosa pudica were studied for wound healing activity by incorporating the methanolic and the total aqueous extract in simple ointment base B.
