4-Aryl-7,7-dimethyl-5-oxo-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydroquinazoline-2-thione derivatives (1-8) have been prepared by modified Biginelli reaction from 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, the aromatic aldehydes and thiourea. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by spectroscopic and elemental analysis. Racemic compounds were resolved into their enantiomers by HPLC using an amylose tris-(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) chiral stationary phase in the normal phase mode. The calcium antagonist activities of the compounds were determined by the tests performed on isolated rat ileum and lamb carotid artery. Compounds 2, 3, 4 and 6 were the most active compounds on isolated rat ileum. Compounds 2 and 3 were significantly active on lamb carotid artery.

Ameliorative impact of sacubitril/valsartan on paraquat-induced acute lung injury: role of Nrf2 and TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Herbicides such as paraquat (PQ) are frequently utilized particularly in developing nations. The present research concentrated on the pulmonary lesions triggered by PQ and the beneficial effect of the angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), sacubitril/valsartan, against such pulmonary damage. Five groups of rats were established: control, ARNI, PQ (10 mg/kg), ARNI 68 + PQ, and ARNI 34 + PQ.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe idea of self-organized signal processing in the cerebral cortex has become a focus of research since Beggs and Plentz reported avalanches in local field potential recordings from organotypic cultures and acute slices of rat somatosensory cortex. How the cortex intrinsically organizes signals remains unknown. A current hypothesis was proposed by the condensed matter physicists Bak, Tang, and Wiesenfeld when they conjectured that if neuronal avalanche activity followed inverse power law distributions, then brain activity may be set around phase transitions within self-organized signals.

Background: Uterine injury can cause uterine scarring, leading to a series of complications that threaten women's health. Uterine healing is a complex process, and there are currently no effective treatments. Although our previous studies have shown that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) promote uterine damage repair, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Department of Physiology, Medical School, Selcuk University, Konya, Turkey.
Introduction: Brain ischemia-reperfusion can cause serious and irreversible health problems. Recent studies have suggested that certain flavonoids may help stabilize the correctly folded structure of the visual photoreceptor protein rhodopsin and offset the deleterious effect of retinitis pigmentosa mutations.
Objective: The current study aimed to determine the effect of 3',4'-Dihydroxyflavonol (DiOHF) supplementation for 1 week on lipid peroxidation in the retina tissue following focal brain ischemia-reperfusion in rats.
Osteopontin Facilitated Dental Pulp Cell Adhesion and Differentiation: A Laboratory Investigation.
ACS Appl Bio Mater
January 2025
The Affiliated Stomatological Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing 210008, China.
Aim: To investigate the effects of osteopontin (OPN) on cultured human dental pulp cells (hDPCs) in relation to adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization.
Methodology: Subcultured hDPCs isolated from healthy human wisdom teeth were inoculated on noncoated (NC, control) and OPN-coated nontissue culture-treated polystyrene plates (Non-TCPS). Cell adhesion and proliferation were analyzed by crystal violet staining and the CCK-8 assay, respectively.
