Several phosphaquinodimethanes and their M(CO) complexes (M=Cr, Mo, W) and model derivatives have been theoretically investigated regarding the quest of non-innocence. Computed structural and electronic properties of the P-Me/NH substituted phosphaquinodimethanes and tungsten complexes revealed an interesting non-innocent ligand behaviour for the radical anion complexes with distonic ion character and a strong rearomatization of the middle phenyl ring. The latter was further probed taking also geometric aromaticity (HOMA) and quinoid distortion parameters (HOMQc) into account, as well as NICS(1). Furthermore, the effect of the P-substitution was investigated for real (or plausible) complexes and their free ligands focusing on the resulting aromaticity at the middle phenyl ring and vertical one-electron redox processes. The best picture of ligand engagement in redox changes was provided by representing NICS(1) values versus HOMA and the new geometric distortion parameter HOMQc8.

The Keap1 (Kelch-like ECH-Associating Protein 1)-Nrf2 (Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2)-ARE (Antioxidant Response Element) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in the oxidative stress response and has been linked to the development and progression of various diseases. Its influence on cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury has garnered significant attention. In our study, we investigated the effect of compound 2, a non-covalent inhibitor of the Keap1-Nrf2 interaction, which was previously discovered by our research group.

Background: Accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) in the brain is a hallmark of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Cerebral deposition of Aβ initiates deteriorating pathways which eventually can lead to AD. However, the exact mechanisms are not known.

(), a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen, produces virulent factors and forms biofilms through a quorum sensing (QS) mechanism. Modulating QS networks is considered an effective strategy for treating infections. Particularly, the system, one of the QS networks, can be a potential target in treating patients with chronic infections.

Background: Long-term metabolic disease type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is distinguished by elevated blood glucose, insulin resistance, and drought of insulin with dyslipidemia. Oral hypoglycemic agents lower blood glucose levels as well as prevent both short-term and long-term complications such as micro/macrovascular atherosclerosis, chronic kidney diseases, and chronic heart disease. This study aims to compare the effect of glimepiride versus teneligliptin in combination with metformin in T2DM patients attending a tertiary care hospital.

This study offers insights into the complex relationship between chemical species constituting air pollution and chemosensory function. We examined the relationship between chemical species known to contribute to air pollution and assault human health and chemosensory sensitivity. Chemosensory sensitivity data was retrieved from a large-scale study involving 711 urban-dwelling participants inhabiting 10 different regions of the globe.
