We report herein the synthesis of a series of novel quinoline derivatives, based on the lead compound 1a, identified from a rRSV-mGFP high-throughput screening assay. Our results revealed that target compounds 1b, 1g-h, 1af and 1ah (IC = 3.10-6.93 μM) had good in vitro activity against RSV, which were better than 1a and ribavirin. In addition, we found that compound 1g displayed the lower cytotoxicity (CC: 2490.33 μM) and the highest selective index (SI = 673.06), suggesting its promising potential as a candidate for further development. On the other hand, compounds 1a, 1m, 1v, 1ad-1af and 1ah-1ai (ICs: 1.87-14.28 μM) were more active against IAV than or comparable to ribavirin (IC: 15.36 ± 0.93 μM). Particularly, the most active compound 1ae (IC: 1.87 ± 0.58 μM) was found to be 8.2-fold more potent than the reference drug, which could inhibit the virus transcription and replication cycle at an early stage.

The analysis of electrophysiological recordings of the human brain in resting state is a key experimental technique in neuroscience. Resting state is the default condition to characterize brain dynamics. Its successful implementation relies both on the capacity of subjects to comply with the requirement of staying awake while not performing any cognitive task, and on the capacity of the experimenter to validate that compliance.

Objectives: To describe obstetric characteristics and perinatal outcomes in a serie of fetuses with Sacrococcygeal Teratoma (SCT) and propose a novel index to assess postnatal mortality based on the THC ratio and the addition of the presence of polyhydramnios.

Methods: A retrospective study in a referral teaching hospital between 2013 and 2023. A descriptive analysis and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were performed to the determine the optimal cutoff value of the THC plus polyhydramnios based on optimal sensitivity and specificity.

Background: The pervasiveness of drug culture has become evident in popular music and social media. Previous research has examined drug abuse content in both social media and popular music; however, to our knowledge, the intersection of drug abuse content in these 2 domains has not been explored. To address the ongoing drug epidemic, we analyzed drug-related content on Twitter (subsequently rebranded X), with a specific focus on lyrics.

Novel α-mangostin derivatives as promising antiviral agents: Isolation, synthesis, and evaluation against chikungunya virus.

Eur J Med Chem

December 2024

Department of Natural Products and Medicinal Chemistry, CSIR-IICT Hyderabad, India; Academy of Scientific and Innovative Research (AcSIR), Ghaziabad, 201002, India. Electronic address:

Investigations into fruit and vegetable processing residues (FVPRs) offer huge opportunities to discover novel therapeutics against many diseases. In this study, detailed investigation of Garcinia mangostana fruit peel extract led to the isolation and identification of ten known compounds (1-10). Further, a new series of α-mangostin derived sulphonyl piperzines, aryl alkynes and 1,2,3-triazole derivatives were synthesized using Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cyclo-addition reaction ("click" chemistry).
