A series of novel 4,4-disubstituted cyclohexylamine based NK(1) antagonists is described. The effect of changes to the C(1)-C(4) relative stereochemistry on the cyclohexane ring and replacements for the flexible linker are discussed, leading to the identification of compounds with high affinity and good in vivo duration of action.

In this work, several imidazo[1,2-]pyridines were synthesized through the Groebke-Blackburn-Bienaymé three-component reaction (GBB-3CR), and their phytotoxicity was evaluated by the influence on the growth of wheat coleoptiles and three important agricultural seeds (, , and ) at test concentrations of 1000, 300, 100, 30, and 10 μM. A structure-activity relationship was established, showing the importance of halogen groups at the position of the attached aromatic ring and the presence of a cyclohexylamine group for greater activity. Post-modification of some GBB-3CR adducts was carried out, leading to imidazo[1,2-]pyridine-tetrazole hybrids, which were also evaluated in these bioassays.

It has been demonstrated that diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is especially sensitive to ferroptosis. Currently, confirming the presence of ferroptosis requires flow cytometry, which is a time consuming and labor-intensive task. Blistering of the cell membrane has been shown to be a ferroptosis-specific morphological change.

Article Synopsis
- The increasing issue of multidrug resistance (MDR) in pathogenic bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus has prompted the search for new treatment methods, including FDA-drug repurposing.
- Ambroxol was tested against clinical MDR S. aureus isolates and showed effective antibacterial activity, with concentrations needed to inhibit growth between 0.75 to 1.5 mg/mL, and also disrupted biofilm formation in about 42% of the isolates.
- In vivo studies demonstrated ambroxol's ability to enhance skin tissue healing in S. aureus infected burn injuries by reducing bacterial presence and inflammation, with further investigations suggesting its action may involve binding to several targets in the bacterium.
Protective Effects of Ambroxol on Aβ and α-Synuclein-Induced Neurotoxicity Through Glucocerebrosidase Activation in HT-22 Hippocampal Neuronal Cells.

Article Synopsis
- Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is a serious brain disorder characterized by the build-up of harmful proteins, including α-synuclein and amyloid β, leading to neuron death and a strong need for better treatments.
- The drug Ambroxol (AMBX) has shown promise in activating an enzyme called glucocerebrosidase, which helps clear toxic protein aggregates and improve cell health.
- In tests with brain cells exposed to these harmful proteins, AMBX was found to increase cell viability, restore enzyme activity, promote waste clearance, and reduce damage, indicating its potential as a treatment for DLB that needs further exploration in animal studies and clinical trials.
