A series of novel pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrazin-4(5H)-one derivatives with hydrophilic group was synthesized under general heating condition and microwave-assisted condition. The structures of compounds were determined by IR, 1H NMR and HRMS, moreover, representative crystal structures were characterized by using X-ray diffraction analysis. Preliminary biological evaluation showed that some compounds could inhibit the growth of A549, H322 and H1299 cells in dosage dependent manners. The compounds could inhibit growth of A549, H322 and H1299 cells in different mechanism. Compounds 3e-h inhibited growth of A549 cells by inducing a strong G1-phase arrest. Whereas these compounds inhibited growth of H1299 and H322 cells by inducing apoptosis.

Microbial metabolic enzymes play a crucial role in several biological processes that have a significant impact on growth and proliferation. Therefore, inhibiting specific key metabolic enzymes can be an applicable approach for developing antimicrobial agents that selectively target pathogens. In the current study, selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) extracellularly biosynthesized by Nocardiopsis sp.

Ginseng and its processed products are valued as health foods for their nutritional benefits. The traditional forms of processed ginseng include white ginseng, dali ginseng (DLG), red ginseng (RG), and black ginseng (BG). However, the impact of processing on the chemical composition and anti-tumor efficacy of these products is not well understood.

Silver N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes are known to form biscarbene species from monocarbene analogs in protic polar solvents. However, the effect of the respective species of silver NHC complexes on their biological activity against bacteria or cancer cells has not been systematically explored, either in vitro or in vivo. The direct and simple conversion of monocarbene silver N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) halide complexes (NHC)AgX, (X= Cl, Br) 1a/b - 5a/b to their biscarbene analogues (NHC)2AgX 1c/d - 5c/d is reported.

The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the necessity for rapid and adaptable drug screening platforms against live pathogenic viruses that require high levels of biosafety containment. Conventional antiviral testing is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Here, we outline the design and validation of a semi-automated drug-screening platform for SARS-CoV-2 that utilizes multiple liquid handlers, a stable A549 cell line expressing ACE2 and TMPRSS2 receptors, and a recombinant SARS-CoV-2 strain harboring the nano-luciferase gene.

Aim: New phenyldiazene scaffold-linked heterocyclic pyrazole, pyrimidinone, pyrimidinthione, and/or triazine rings have been developed and synthesized.
Methods & Results: Cytotoxicity of our derivatives was estimated on four cancer and VERO normal cell lines targeting EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) and VEGFR-2 (vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2) enzymes. Our new derivatives selectively inhibited both VEGFR-2 and EGFR as they have the essential structural requirements for inhibitors of both receptors.
