Following our previous research on anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), we report here the synthesis of chiral 1,5-diarylpyrroles derivatives that were characterized for their in vitro inhibitory effects toward cyclooxygenase (COX) isozymes. Analysis of enzymatic affinity and COX-2 selectivity led us to the selection of one compound (+/-)-10b that was further tested in vitro in the human whole blood (HWB) and in vivo for its anti-inflammatory activity in mice. The affinity data have been rationalized through docking simulations.

Background: Although immunoglobulin (Ig) alleles play a pivotal role in the antibody response to pathogens, research to understand their role in the humoral immune response is still limited.
Methods: We retrieved the germline sequences for the IGHV from the IMGT database to illustrate the amino acid polymorphism present within germline sequences of IGHV genes. We aassembled the sequences of IgM and IgD repertoire from 130 people to investigate the genetic variations in the population.

A microwave-assisted method was utilized to synthesize novel pyranoquinolone derivatives as dual acting topoisomerase II/DNA gyrase inhibitors with apoptosis induction ability for halting lung cancer and staphylococcal infection. Herein, the designed rationale was directed toward mimicking the structural features of both topoisomerase II and DNA gyrase inhibitors as well as endowing them with apoptosis induction potential. The absolute configuration of the series was assigned using X-ray diffraction analysis.

Background: Plant diseases cause huge losses in agriculture worldwide every year, but the prolonged use of current commercial fungicides has led to the development of resistance in plant pathogenic fungi. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new, efficient, and green fungicides.
Results: Twenty-three nootkatone-based thiazole-hydrazone compounds were designed, synthesized, and characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), proton (H) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), carbon-13 (C) NMR, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS).
