The new 1-(4-(3-(aryl)acryloyl)phenyl)-1H-pyrrole-2,5-diones (5a-g) were prepared from 4'-aminchalcones (3a-g) and screened for biological activities. All compounds (3a-g and 5a-g), except 3d and 3e displayed good cytotoxic activities with IC values in the range of 7.06-67.46 μM. IC value of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) was 90.36 μM. Moreover, most of compounds 5a-g showed high antibacterial activity with 8-20 mm of inhibition zone (19-25 mm of Sulbactam-Cefoperazone (SCF)). In addition, they showed good inhibitory action against acetylcholinesterase (AChE), and human carbonic anhydrase I, and II (hCA I and hCA II) isoforms. Also, these compounds demonstrated effective inhibition profiles with Ki values of 426.47-699.58 nM against hCA I, 214.92-532.21 nM against hCA II, and 70.470-229.42 nM against AChE. On the other hand, acetazolamide, clinically used drug, showed a Ki value of 977.77 ± 227.4 nM against CA I, and 904.47 ± 106.3 nM against CA II, respectively. Also, tacrine inhibited AChE showed a Ki value of 446.56 ± 58.33 nM.

Human carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) plays a key role in maintaining pH homeostasis of malignant neoplasms, thus creating a favorable microenvironment for the growth, invasion, and metastasis of tumor cells. Recent studies have established that inhibition of CAIX expressed on the surface of tumor cells significantly increases the efficacy of classical chemotherapeutic agents and makes it possible to suppress the resistance of tumor cells to chemotherapy, as well as to increase their sensitivity to drugs (in particular, to reduce the required dose of cytostatic agents). In this work, we studied the ability of new CAIX inhibitors based on substituted 1,2,4-oxadiazole-containing primary aromatic sulfonamides, to potentiate the cytostatic effect of gefitinib (selective inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase domain) under hypoxic conditions.

Global changes and growing demands have led to the development of new molecular approaches to improve crop physiological performances. Carbonic anhydrase (CA) enzymes, ubiquitous across various life kingdoms, stand out for their critical roles in plant photosynthesis and water relations. We hypothesize that the modulators of human CAs could affect plant physiology.

The present study aims to create spiro-N-(4-sulfamoyl-phenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-carboxamide derivatives with anticancer activities. The in vitro anticancer evaluation showed that only the novel spiro-acenaphthylene tethered-[1,3,4]-thiadiazole (compound ) exhibited significant anticancer efficacy as a selective inhibitor of tumor-associated isoforms of carbonic anhydrase. Compound demonstrated considerable efficacy against the renal RXF393, colon HT29, and melanoma LOX IMVI cancer cell lines, with IC values of 7.

Multi-drug-resistant (MDR) pathogens represent a critical global health threat, necessitating the development of novel antimicrobial agents with broad-spectrum activity and minimal toxicity. This study investigates the antimicrobial and anti-biofilm properties of 4-Allyl-2-methoxyphenol (eugenol, EU) and (E)-3-Phenylprop-2-enal (cinnamaldehyde, CN) against 19 clinically significant pathogens through a combination of in-vitro assays and in-silico analyses. EU displayed remarkable activity, particularly against Aspergillus niger (20.

Prioritizing defense over growth often occurs under ultraviolet (UV)-B radiation while several studies showed its growth-promoting effects on photosynthetic organisms, how they overcome the growth-defense trade-off is unclear. This study deciphered the acclimation responses of the cyanobacterium Nostoc sphaeroides to low UV-B radiation (0.08 W m) using quantitative proteomic, physiological and biochemical analyses.
