Out of the group of 2-amino-oxazoles 1 was found to be the most potent antiviral compound. Following p.o. or s.c. administration to rats, the 14C-labeled 1 was quickly and completely absorbed. The TRA was eliminated mainly via the kidneys and the liver with half-lives between 32 and 42 h. The acute pharmacodynamic effects of 1 were decrease of blood pressure, bradycardia, and inhibition of both gastric emptying and acid secretion. On smooth muscles spasmolytic and alpha-anti-adrenergic actions were predominant. After single administration the following MTD's were determined: 30 (mouse), 20 (rat), 10 mg/kg i.v. (pig), and 500 (mouse, rat), greater than 100 mg/kg p.o. (pig), respectively. In a subchronic toxicity study in rats, oral doses of 1 between 15 and 240 mg/kg given daily for 4 weeks were tolerated without any severe alterations related to the drug.

Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a significant brain disease with a high mortality and disability rate. Additional therapies for AIS are urgently needed, and neuroplasticity mechanisms by agents are expected to be neuroprotective for AIS. As a major active component of Salvia miltiorrhiza, salvianolic acid A (SAA) has shown potential for preventing cardiovascular diseases.

While aging inevitably changes our skin, this complex biological process involves much more than just getting older. As the body's largest organ, the skin constantly safeguards us from harmful environmental pathogens and plays a key role in overall well-being. This study investigated the development and evaluation of a nanogel containing Rosa damascena essential oil for its potential anti-aging properties.

Background: In humans, early life stress (ELS) is associated with an increased risk for developing both alcohol use disorder (AUD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We previously used an infant footshock model in rats that produces stress-enhanced fear learning (SEFL) and increases aversion-resistant alcohol drinking to explore this shared predisposition. The goal of the current study was to test the viability of this procedure as a model of comorbid PTSD and AUD in male and female C57BL/6J mice.

Spinal cord injury results in permanent loss of neurological functions due to severance of neural networks. Transplantation of neural stem cells holds promise to repair disrupted connections. Yet, ensuring the survival and integration of neural stem cells into the host neural circuit remains a formidable challenge.
