Some 3,3-dimethyltriazenes were shown to be capable of selective antimetastatic activity, i. e. preventing metastatic spreading of experimental tumors without affecting primary tumor or apparent metastases. The mechanism of antimetastatic effect of 3,3-dimethyltriazenes is discussed. The drugs represent a new promising pharmacological class of agents used for postsurgical adjuvant treatment of cancer. The effect of diazo derivatives produced in the course of disintegration of aromatic and heterocyclic 3,3-dimethyltriazenes on the in vitro activity of Ca-ATPase of the sarcoplasmic reticulum should be evaluated as a test-system for selecting new antimetastatic agents with cryptodiazonic properties.

Understanding the molecular mechanism of inhibitor binding to prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is of fundamental importance for designing targeted drugs for prostate cancer. Here we designed a series of PSMA-targeting inhibitors with distinct molecular structures, which were synthesized and characterized using both experimental and computational approaches. Microsecond molecular dynamics simulations revealed the structural and thermodynamic details of PSMA-inhibitor interactions.

Electrically rechargeable zinc-air batteries (ZABs) are emerging as promising energy storage devices in the post-lithium era, leveraging the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at the air cathodes. Efficient bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts, capable of catalyzing both the ORR and OER, are essential for the operation of rechargeable ZABs. Traditional Pt- and RuO/IrO-based catalysts are not ideal, as they lack sufficient bifunctional ORR and OER activity, exhibit limited long-term durability, require high overpotentials and are expensive.

The research relevance is determined by the need for rational use of limited resources in the healthcare sector and the importance of implementing the results of scientific research into medical practice to improve the quality of medical care. The study aims to identify key criteria and develop a system for evaluating clinical trials to prioritise the most promising areas based on their practical applicability in healthcare. The expert evaluation method of 17 research projects in the field of clinical medicine funded by government grants, involving 37 experts, was used to achieve the objective.

Immune cell engagers are molecular agents, usually antibody-based constructs, engineered to recruit immune cells against cancer cells and kill them. They are versatile and powerful tools for cancer immunotherapy. Despite the multiplication of engagers tested and accepted in the clinic, how molecular and cellular parameters influence their actions is poorly understood.

The emergence of multidrug-resistant microbial strains poses a significant challenge to global public health. In response, researchers have been exploring innovative antimicrobial agents with enhanced efficacy and novel mechanisms of action. One promising approach involves the synthesis of hybrid molecules combining azetidinone and azole moieties, capitalizing on the respective antimicrobial properties of both structural elements.
