First Report from Saudi Arabia of Trimethylaminuria Caused by a Premature Stop Codon Mutation in the Gene.

Background: Trimethylaminuria (TMAU) is a rare recessive genetic disorder with limited global prevalence. To date, there have been no official reports of TMAU cases documented in Saudi Arabia.

Purpose: In this study, we developed a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method for the analysis of trimethylamine (TMA) and Trimethylamine N-Oxide (TMAO) in urine and plasma samples for the first reported case of TMAU in Saudi Arabia.

Synthesis of indole derivatives as Alzheimer inhibitors and their molecular docking study.

Acetylcholinesterase prevails in the healthy brain, with butyrylcholinesterase reflected to play a minor role in regulating brain acetylcholine (ACh) levels. However, BuChE activity gradually increases in patients with (AD), while AChE activity remains unaffected or decays. Both enzymes therefore represent legitimate therapeutic targets for ameliorating the cholinergic deficit considered to be responsible for the declines in cognitive, behavioural, and global functioning characteristic of AD.

Distinct Mechanisms of Cytotoxicity in Novel Nitrogenous Heterocycles: Future Directions for a New Anti-Cancer Agent.

Unlabelled: Electron-rich, nitrogenous heteroaromatic compounds interact more with biological/cellular components than their non-nitrogenous counterparts. The strong intermolecular interactions with proteins, enzymes, and receptors confer significant biological and therapeutic properties to the imidazole derivatives, giving rise to a well-known and extensively used range of therapeutic drugs used for infections, inflammation, and cancer, to name a few. The current study investigates the anti-cancer properties of fourteen previously synthesized nitrogenous heterocycles, derivatives of imidazole and oxazolone, on a panel of cancer cell lines and, in addition, predicts the molecular interactions, pharmacokinetic and safety profiles of these compounds.
