The multifaceted action of new ibuprofen analogs has been investigated against inflammation, neurological and pro-inflammation factors. On the basis of ADMET (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) analysis, molecular docking as well as molecular dynamics simulation, compound 3 was thought to have good anti-inflammatory activity. As the presence of structural interactions such as conventional hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions through the nitrogen atoms of the linker in compound 3 gave strong evidence of its potency. The major finding of the current work is that the presence of appropriate number of hetero atoms (NH, OH) in a compound makes it more efficient than the number of labile groups (i.e., hydroxyl groups). Additionally, the position of hetero atoms in a compound and orientation also play a vital role in its efficacy. It was also screened for anti-inflammatory activity by membrane stability method, where it has shown 90.8% protection of RBC hemolysis. Thus, compound 3 with effective structural features may have good anti-inflammatory activity.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Acne vulgaris is a common and challenging condition to treat. To assess the effect of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) in the treatment of mild to moderate acne vulgaris. This study included 30 patients with mild to moderate acne vulgaris treated with intradermal injections of diluted BTX-A (microbotox) on the cheek in a regular grid pattern using very small droplets (microbotox).

The pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI) is a multifaceted process involving various mechanisms, with oxidative stress playing a crucial role in its development. Hypochlorite (HOCl) and cysteine (Cys) are indicators of oxidative stress in AKI pathophysiology, directly reflecting the degree of oxidative stress and disease severity. However, their exact mechanism of action in AKI pathophysiology remains unknown.

Camera traps are widely used in wildlife research and monitoring, so it is imperative to understand their strengths, limitations, and potential for increasing impact. We investigated a decade of use of wildlife cameras (2012-2022) with a case study on Australian terrestrial vertebrates using a multifaceted approach. We (i) synthesised information from a literature review; (ii) conducted an online questionnaire of 132 professionals; (iii) hosted an in-person workshop of 28 leading experts representing academia, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and government; and (iv) mapped camera trap usage based on all sources.

In the burgeoning field of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, significant efforts are being dedicated to expanding its applications into the 3D domain. Various methodologies have been developed that enable isotropic resolution at the nanometer scale, facilitating the visualization of 3D subcellular structures with unprecedented clarity. Central to this progress is the need for reliable 3D structures that are biologically compatible for validating resolution capabilities.

Obesity, a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by excessive body weight and adipose tissue accumulation, is intricately linked to a spectrum of health complications. It is driven by a confluence of factors, including gut microbiota dysbiosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress, which are pivotal in its pathogenesis. A multifaceted therapeutic strategy that targets these interrelated pathways is essential for effective obesity management.
