Nanomedicine, particularly gene delivery, holds immense potential and offers promising therapeutic options. Non-viral systems gained attention due to their binding capacity, stability and scalability. Among these, natural polysaccharides, such as pullulan, are advantageous in terms of sustainability, biocompatibility and potential degradability.

Heterocyclic chemistry gathered a wide audience due to their presence in potential drug candidates and being attractive synthons initiating several retro-syntheses the organic as well as in medicinal chemistry fields. Among them, azetidinones have been a subject of discussion due to their serendipity, curiosity, versatility by Penicillin and Cephalosporins as β-lactam antibiotics. Despite possessing a large margin of biological activities, azetidinones mainly work as antimicrobial, interfering with bacterial cell-wall synthesis blocking transpeptidase.

Human coronaviruses (HCoVs) include common cold viruses such as HCoV-229E, OC43, NL63 and HKU1 as well as MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV, which cause severe respiratory disease. Recently, SARS-CoV-2 caused a COVID-19 pandemic. The nucleocapsid (N) protein of coronaviruses, which is essential for RNA binding and homodimerization, has a highly conserved structure across viruses.

Gastric cancer remains one of the global health threats for human beings. However, the therapeutic efficacy of the widely-used chemotherapy is usually limited due to the lack of specificity and the related toxicity. Only limited therapeutic agents were demonstrated to show selective and potent inhibitory activity to gastric cancer cells.

This study carried out a quantitative structure-activity relationship hazard assessment of the banned pesticides in Nigeria with a view of identifying the dangers posed by these pesticides. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) and quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs), which link a compound's chemical structure to its biological activity, can be used to create safer and more effective insecticides, prioritize chemicals for testing, and reduce the number of animal studies necessary throughout the regulatory process. The QSAR hazard assessment of the banned pesticides was carried out on the VEGA software.
