5-Aminopyrazole serves as a vital precursor for several biologically active pyrazoloazines, including pyrazolopyridine, pyrazolopyrimidine, and pyrazolotriazine, as well as Schiff bases, thiourea, and phthalimide derivatives. In this study, we structurally characterized novel pyrazole derivatives by spectral IR, H and C NMR, and MASS spectroscopy. We also evaluated antioxidant activity of various derivatives using ABTS and DPPH methods and cytotoxicity in the hepatocellular carcinoma Hep-G2 cells by SRB assay. The most potent antitumor molecules were 5-aminopyrazole derivative 3, chloroacetanilide derivative 8, maleimide derivative 10a, pyrazolopyrimidine 16, and enamine 19, with IC values of 41, 3.6, 37, 24.4, and 17.7 μM, respectively. Complementary computational studies predicted QSAR and bioactivity of these molecules. Interestingly, the most effective compounds were also predicted to be kinase inhibitors; in addition, molecular docking with liver receptors (3MBG, 4XCU, and 4G9C) predicted promising interactions.

Infection with Influenza A virus (IAV) induces severe inflammatory responses and lung injury, contributing significantly to mortality and morbidity rates. Alterations in the microbial composition of the lungs and intestinal tract resulting from infection could influence disease progression and treatment outcomes. Xiyanping (XYP) injection has demonstrated efficacy in clinical treatment across various viral infections.

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is a highly malignant tumor in the digestive system, with an increasing incidence and mortality rate globally. Recent genetic studies have revealed that the abnormal expression and functional dysregulation of various genes are involved in the occurrence and progression of pancreatic cancer. NIPA-like proteins (NIPAs) are expressed in a variety of cancer types, yet the role of NIPAL1 in cancer remains unclear.

Hawk tea has received increasing attention for its unique flavor and potential health benefits, with antioxidant function being one of its significant bioactivities. However, the metabolic profiles, potential antioxidant components, and action mechanisms of different types of hawk tea are still unclear. In this study, the chemical components of five hawk teas were determined using untargeted metabolomics.
