Exploration of novel triazolo-thiadiazine hybrids of deferasirox as multi-target-directed anti-neuroinflammatory agents with structure-activity relationship (SAR): a new treatment opportunity for Alzheimer's disease.

It is believed that inflammation influences several physiological processes, including the function of the central nervous system. Moreover, the impairment of lipid mechanisms/pathways is associated with neurodegenerative disorders and onset of Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is a chronic neurodegenerative disease representing the major cause of dementia worldwide.

Intraoperative Factors Affecting Pain Management and Postoperative Narcotic Use in Cranial Vault Remodeling: A Retrospective Review.

Perioperative pain control in open cranial vault reconstruction (CVR) poses significant challenges. Narcotic use may confound signs of neurological deterioration and cause medication-induced complications. Previous studies have shown improved health outcomes in CVR with reduced narcotic use.

Genomic analysis of global Mycobacterium abscessus isolates reveals ongoing evolution of drug-resistance-associated genes.

Mycobacterium abscessus (MAB) is intrinsically resistant to many antibiotics, but the evolution of acquired drug resistance is poorly understood. We analyzed published genomes of 5,617 clinical MAB isolates from 20 countries and searched for signals of ongoing evolution in 35 drug-resistance-associated genes. Of these, we found 14 genes were subject to positive selection and identified novel mutational sites under selection.

Exploration of newly synthesized deferasirox derivatives as potential anti-cancer agents via in-vitro and in-silico approaches.

Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX), upregulated by hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), plays a crucial role in regulation of intracellular and extracellular pH, which is essential for the growth and spread of tumors. The overexpression of CA IX in breast cancer is linked to a low post-radiation patient survival rate. Under normoxic conditions, CA IX expression is relatively low, but hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) upregulate its expression when oxygen levels drop.
