New formyl indole derivatives based on thiobarbituric acid were designed for targeting parasitological applications. The new compounds (5-((1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-2-thioxodihydropyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione (3a), and 5-((1-benzyl-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-2-thioxodihydropyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione (3b) were synthesized as thioxodihydropyrimidine derivatives via aldol condensation reaction. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed based on their spectral data via FT-IR, H and C NMR spectral characterization.

Background/aims: Phenobarbital (PB), commonly used for epilepsy management, is associated with testicular dysfunction after prolonged use. This study aimed to evaluate the ameliorative effects of cranberry (CB) and vitamin C (Vit-C) on PB-induced reproductive toxicity in rats.
Methods: Forty male Wistar rats were divided into five groups.

As a predictive tool, quantum chemical calculations can be used to design protic ionic liquids (PILs) and predict the result. By adding anionic negative potential sites, two dual-functional PILs diethylenetriamine-barbituric acid [CHN][CHNO] and diethylenetriamine-ethylenolactonium [CHN][CHNO] were designed. The simulation results indicated that multisite absorption of anions and cations resulted in an expected absorption ratio exceeding 3:1 (mol CO:mol ILs).

Hydrogels with antibacterial activities have the potential for many biomedical applications, such as wound healing, because of their capacity to maintain a moist environment and prevent infections. In this work, an ultrasound-induced supramolecular hydrogel consisting of easily accessible reducing-end-free glucosaminylbarbiturate-based hydrogelators that serve the fabrication of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), excluding the addition of any external reducing or stabilizing agents, has been developed. The innovative synthetic approach relied on the use of -disubstituted barbituric acid derivatives as a versatile chemical platform that site-selectively reacted with the amino function of glucosamine.

Background: Although erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) have been the standard treatment for renal anemia, ESA hyporesponsiveness remains a concern. Hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (HIF-PHIs) are a new class of agents indicated for renal anemia. Several lines of evidence indicate that HIF-PHIs affect erythrocyte indices; nonetheless, their clinical significance remains unclear.
