The incidence of cancer continues to increase worldwide, resulting in significant physical, emotional, and financial challenges for individuals, families, communities, and healthcare systems. Cancer is projected to be responsible for approximately 10 million deaths in 2020, accounting for one in six deaths globally. Prostate, colon, lung, and breast cancers are the most common types of cancer.

Surfactin lipopeptides (LPs) are a compelling class of biosurfactants with notable antimicrobial and anticancer properties. This study presents a novel approach by integrating bioinformatics tools to assess the drug potential of Surfactin, specifically focusing on its antibacterial, antifungal activities, and cancer cell-line toxicity. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using Surfactin, a biosurfactant derived from KLP2016, as a capping agent, both in the presence and absence of Surfactin, to evaluate its impact on nanoparticle stability and bioactivity.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed coamorphous systems (CAM) using lumefantrine (LMF) and alpha-ketoglutaric acid (KGA) to improve LMF's solubility and bioavailability through three distinct methods: liquid-assisted grinding, solvent evaporation, and quench-cooling.
  • Testing via PXRD, DSC, and other techniques confirmed the successful amorphization and intermolecular interactions in these CAMs, along with simulations showing diverse molecular environments.
  • The new CAMs significantly enhanced solubility (up to 14.73x), dissolution rates (up to 2.63x), and pharmacokinetics in living organisms (up to 10.86x), while also demonstrating anti-cancer

Over the last few decades, the global rise in energy demand has prompted researchers to investigate the energy requirements from alternative green fuels apart from the conventional fossil fuels, due to the surge in CO emission levels. In this context, the global demand for hydrogen is anticipated to extend by 4-5% in the next 5 years. Different production technologies like gasification of coal, partial oxidation of hydrocarbons, and reforming of natural gas are used to obtain high yields of hydrogen.

Rationale: Baricitinib (BARI), an inhibitor of Janus kinases 1 and 2 (JAK 1/2), is used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and COVID-19. The present study focuses on establishing the forced degradation behavior of BARI under different degradation conditions (hydrolysis, oxidation, and photolysis) following International Council for Harmonization (ICH) guidelines of Q1A (R2)-Stability testing of new drug substances and products and Q1B-Photostability testing of new drug substances and products. This study helps in monitoring the quality and safety of BARI and its product development.

The present study describes forced degradation of benidipine (BEN) as per  Q1A (R2) and Q1B guidelines of the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use. BEN degraded under hydrolysis (neutral, acidic, and alkaline), hydrogen peroxide induced oxidation, and UV light mediated photolytic degradation. A total of 14 degradation products (DPs) were found in all degradation studies, comprising 4 hydrolytic DPs, 8 oxidative DPs, and 4 photolytic DPs.

A Ru(II)-catalyzed regioselective direct -amidation of 2-aryl benzo[]thiazoles employing acyl azides as a nitrogen source has been accomplished. This approach utilizes the efficiency of benzothiazole as a directing group and the role of acyl azide as an effective amidating agent toward C-N bond formation, thereby evading the general Curtius rearrangement. The protocol highlights significant functional group tolerance, single-step, and external oxidant-free conditions, with the release of only innocuous molecular nitrogen as the byproduct.

Rationale: Stress testing on tinoridine hydrochloride was carried out using a multidimensional approach. This included different conditions: hydrolytic (acidic, alkaline, and neutral conditions), different oxidative reagents, thermal, photolytic conditions, HPLC method development, and structural elucidation using high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). It provides the basis for quality control of tinoridine hydrochloride and its derivatives during storage conditions.

Rationale: Nintedanib, an oral, triple angiokinase inhibitor, is used alongside docetaxel in the management of locally recurrent non-small-cell lung cancer and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The present study deals with the identification and characterization of in vitro and in vivo stable and reactive (if any) metabolites of nintedanib and sheds light on some novel metabolites of the drug which have not been reported previously.

Methods: The study involved an oral administration of the drug to male Wistar rats, followed by collection of the biological matrices (urine, plasma and feces) at specific intervals for determination of in vivo metabolites.
