The aim of this review is to encapsulate the synthetic protocols and medicinal aspects of a wide range of heterocyclic compounds using the Vilsmeier-Haack (V. H.) reagent. These derivatives act as excellent precursors having different aryl ring functionalities and could be used for the synthesis of a variety of heterocyclic scaffolds. The V. H. reagent, a versatile reagent in organic chemistry, is used to formylate various heterocyclic compounds of medicinal interest. Due to the different chemical interactions, efficacy, and potency of V. H. reagents, plenty of heterocyclic compounds can be synthesized which serve as a constituent in various novel medications and acts as a bridge between biology and chemistry. These carboxylate moieties can effectively cooperate as precursors for several multi-component reactions (MCR) including Strecker synthesis, Bucherer-Berg reaction and post-MCR cyclization, modified variants with various pharmaceutical applications such as anti-tumor, anti-convulsant, anti-chitosomal and so on.

Introduction: The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of ivermectin and colchicine as treatment options for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Methodology: A three-arm randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted in the Triage Clinic of the family medicine department at Ain Shams University Hospitals on participants who had been diagnosed with moderate COVID-19. Patients aged < 18 years or > 65 years, with any co-morbidities, pregnant or lactating females, and those with mild or severe COVID-19 confirmed cases were excluded.

Introduction: Inflammation plays a role in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pathophysiology and anti-inflammatory drugs may help reduce the disease severity. Levamisole is an anthelmintic drug with immunomodulatory and possible antiviral effects. This study aimed to evaluate the role of levamisole in the treatment of patients with COVID-19.

Background: Basal cell nevus syndrome, also known as Gorlin or Gorlin-Goltz syndrome, is a hereditary condition caused by mutation in the PATCHED gene. The syndrome presents with a wide range of clinical manifestations, including basal cell carcinomas, jaw cysts, and skeletal anomalies. Diagnosis is based on specific criteria, and treatment typically includes surgical removal of basal cell carcinomas.

The homeotic transformation of stamens into pistil-like structures (pistillody) causes cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS). This phenomenon is widely present in plants, and might be induced by intracellular communication (mitochondrial retrograde signaling), but its systemic regulating mechanism is still unclear. In this study, morphological observation showed that the stamens transformed into pistil-like structures, leading to flat and dehiscent pistils, and fruit set decrease in sua-CMS (MS K326, somatic fusion between Nicotiana.

Background: Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) interfere with the endocrine system and negatively impact reproductive health. Biochanin A (BCA), an isoflavone with anti-inflammatory and estrogen-like properties, has been identified as one such EDC. This study investigates the effects of BCA on transcription, metabolism, and hormone regulation in primary human granulosa cells (GCs), with a specific focus on the activation of bitter taste receptors (TAS2Rs).
