Metastasis is the major obstacle to the survival of cancer patients. Herein, a series of new desloratadine platinum(IV) conjugates with promising antiproliferative and antimetastatic activities were developed and evaluated. The candidate complex caused significant DNA damage and stimulated mitochondrial apoptosis through the Bcl-2/Bax/caspase3 pathway. Then, it suppressed the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in tumors effectively through NMT-1/HPCAL1 and β-catenin signaling. Subsequently, the angiogenesis was inhibited with the downregulation of key proteins HIF-1α, VEGFA, MMP-9, and CD34. Moreover, the antitumor immunity was effectively aroused by the synergism of EMT reversion and decrease of the histamine level; then, the macrophage polarization from M2- to M1-type and the increase of CD4 and CD8 T cells were triggered simultaneously in tumors.

Aromatase inhibitors are among the most effective treatment of the breast cancer. Aromatase catalyzes estrogen biosynthesis, which is a long-term cause of breast cancer. Current study describes the synthesis, purification of 26 new fluorinated and non-fluorinated thiourea derivatives of desloratadine (5), and their aromatase inhibition activity, cytotoxicity against cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231).

Through the utilization of fluorescence spectroscopy, electrochemical, and molecular docking methods, this research investigates the interaction between the antihistamine drug desloratadine and calf thymus double-stranded DNA (ct-dsDNA). Deoxyguanosine (dGuo) and deoxyadenosine (dAdo) oxidation signals were diminished by incubation with varying concentrations of desloratadine, as determined by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). This change was ascribed to desloratadine's binding mechanism to ct-dsDNA.

In this work, a wide-scope liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the quantitative determination of environmental levels of multiclass drugs and their metabolites in water and fish samples was developed. The method allowed the reliable determination of 44 drugs, covering a rather wide range of chemistries and physicochemical characteristics. In order to obtain a reliable and robust analytical protocol, different combinations of extraction and cleanup techniques were systematically examined.
