Benzopyrans are selective estrogen receptor (ER) beta agonists (SERBAs), which bind the ER subtypes alpha and beta in opposite orientations. Here we describe the synthesis of a late stage intermediate that allowed us to combine A-ring and C-ring modifications and carry out simultaneous SAR studies at both positions. Modification of both positions proved additive, maintaining affinity and improving ERbeta selectivity up to 83-fold. An X-ray cocrystal structure confirms the previously observed binding mode in ERbeta.

Background: Parkinson's disease is a hypokinetic disorder characterized by selective loss of dopaminergic in substantia nigra pars compacta (SNPc) region of mid-brain. Dopaminergic degeneration of neurons is considered to be due to oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, neurons mitochondrial dysfunction and glutamate excitotoxicity etc. Inosine a purine nucleoside has been reported to produce anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuromodulatory actions in previous studies.

Wide variety of consumable leafy vegetables are present in the nature but most of them are neither utilised nor scientifically investigated. Nutraceutical potential of these plants should be studied to enrich our knowledge, thus making them part of balanced diets. In view of this objective, three leafy vegetables were selected viz.

is one of the opportunistic pathogens that may cause serious health problems and can produce several virulence factors, which are responsible for various infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. They are responsible for producing infections on indwelling medical devices by attaching on to them and forming a biofilm. Antibiofilm, antivirulence, and gene expression studies of biofilm treated with esters of flavonols were evaluated.
