NPY is the most potent orexigenic agent known to man, with NPY Y1 and NPY Y5 being the receptor subtypes that are most likely responsible for centrally-mediated NPY-induced feeding responses. Based on the aforementioned, novel hydrazide derivatives were prepared for the purpose of searching new NPY Y5 receptor antagonists. Many of the compounds exhibited nanomolar binding affinity for this receptor, affording trans-N-(4-[N'-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)hydrazinocarbonyl]cyclohexylmethyl)-4-fluorobenzenesulfonamide, which showed the best activity (IC(50)=0.43nM).

The synthetic availability and wide range of biological activity of hydrazides and hydrazones make them attractive subjects for investigation. In this study, we focused on synthesis of 2-methyl-5-nitro-6-phenylnicotinohydrazide-based hydrazones derived from the corresponding substituted aldehydes. The structure of the obtained compounds was studied using NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations.

Erythroleukemia, a complex myeloproliferative disorder presenting as acute or chronic, is characterized by aberrant proliferation and differentiation of erythroid cells. Although nootkatone, a sesquiterpene derived from grapefruit peel and Alaska yellow cedar, has shown anticancer activity predominantly in solid tumors, its effects in erythroleukemia remain unexplored. This study aimed to investigate the impact of nootkatone and its derivatives on erythroleukemia.

In this research, a series of novel hydrazone derivatives based on pyrazolopyridothiazinylacetohydrazide were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic potency on several human colon cancer cells (HTC116, HT-29, and LoVo). After MTT and SRB assays four of the most active derivatives: hydrazide GH and hydrazones GH7, GH8, and GH11, were chosen for further investigation. Hydrazone GH11 had the highest cytotoxic activity (IC50 values of c.
