Nowadays, quinoline scaffold is among the most vital construction compounds for the development of new drugs. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the anti-cancer activity of sodium salt of ethyl (E)-2-cyano-3-(7-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-oxoquinoline-1(2H)-yl)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl) acrylate against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cells residing in female mice's peritoneal cavity. The docking study exhibited a favourable interaction between the compound and the receptors 1MOY and 3KJF of osteopontin and caspase 3, respectively. The compound's sodium salt showed potential antioxidant and anti-cancer effects against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cells in vivo. Herein, the results elucidated that treatment with the compound's sodium salt exerted significant chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic effects, which reduced both EAC cell volume and count. Our results revealed that treatment with the sodium salt of the compound demonstrated a remarkable in vivo apoptotic effect through elevation of the expression of caspase 3 and reduction of osteopontin levels. Histopathological examination confirmed that the compound's sodium salt improved liver and kidney tissues without any apparent adverse effects.

The preparation of a solid dosage form containing bacteriophages, which meets pharmaceutical requirements and ensures long-term stability of the phage effect, is significant for implementing phage therapy in practice. A commonly used method for processing phages into a solid form is freeze-drying into a (so-called) freeze-dried cake; however, to date there have been no studies examining the pharmacopeial parameters of freeze-dried tablets with bacteriophages. In this study, we describe the preparation and properties of freeze-dried tablets containing a cocktail of purified pseudomonal bacteriophage DSM 33593 from the genus Pbunavirus and staphylococcal bacteriophage DSM 33473 from the genus Kayvirus (10 PFU/tablet) as the active ingredient.

Use of desalinated seawater in arid and semiarid regions for domestic, industrial, and agricultural purposes is on the rise. Consequently, in those regions, drinking water offered to lactating cows has lower salinity and mineral concentrations than in the past. Although water with total dissolved solids (TDSs) of up to 1 000 ppm is considered safe for drinking, lower salinity level may affect rumen physiology, feed and water intake, or milk yield.

An idea of using ion-exchanger salt containing optically active cations to prepare ion-selective membranes is proposed. Although the presence of an ion-exchanger in the composition of neutral ionophore based sensors is necessary, the choice of available salts for cation-selective sensors preparation, is usually limited to sodium or potassium compounds. In this work we propose application of an alternative salt, using a cation optically active both in absorption and emission mode as a mobile one.

Understanding the molecular mechanisms of abiotic stress responses in plants is instrumental for the development of climate-resilient crops. Key factors in abiotic stress responses, such as the proton- pumping pyrophosphatase (AVP1), have been identified, but their function and regulation remain elusive. Here, we explored the post-translational regulation of AVP1 by the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBC34 and its relevance in the salt stress and phosphate starvation responses of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana).
