A series of substituted benzenedisulfonamide carbonic anhydrase inhibitors is described and their anticonvulsant activities are listed. One compound, 4-(4-methoxypiperidinosulfonyl)-2-chlorobenzenesulfonamide (19, UK-12130), was found to have anticonvulsant activity in animals at a dose level that gave only a minimal diuretic effect. 19 selectively increased cerebral blood flow in animals and man without producing an unacceptable level of metabolic acidosis.

Carrageenans have demonstrated enhanced antitumor activity upon depolymerization into disaccharides. However, the pharmacological viability of these disaccharides and their mechanisms of antitumor action remains to be fully elucidated. This study aimed to employ computational tools to investigate the pharmacological properties and molecular targets pertinent to cancer of the disaccharides derived from the primary carrageenans.

Background: Precise intraoperative tumor delineation is essential for successful surgical outcomes. However, conventional methods are often incompetent to provide intraoperative guidance due to lack specificity and sensitivity. Recently fluorescence-guided surgery for tumors to delineate between cancerous and healthy tissues has attracted widespread attention.

Background: Some studies have suggested that glaucoma may be associated with neurodegeneration and a higher risk of dementia.

Objective: To evaluate whether exposure to different categories of topical glaucoma medications is associated with differential dementia risks in people with glaucoma.

Methods: We used data from Adult Changes in Thought, a population-based, prospective cohort study that follows cognitively normal older adults from Kaiser Permanente Washington (KPWA) until Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementia development.

Purpose: This study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of a single-dose, preservative-free (PF) Dorzolamide/Timolol combination (Twinzol-SDU).

Methods: A 3-month single-arm, multicenter, prospective cohort study was conducted in Egypt between January 2021 and October 2022 on previously diagnosed and controlled patients with ocular hypertension and/or glaucoma. Efficacy was assessed using the change in intraocular pressure (IOP) after 6 and 12 weeks.

The escalating atmospheric CO₂ concentration urgently demands ecologically friendly mitigation strategies. Compared to alternative catalysts, carbonic anhydrase (CA) demonstrates exceptionally high catalytic efficiency in CO₂ hydration reactions. Nevertheless, traditional CA immobilization techniques exhibit peak enzymatic activity exclusively at optimal temperatures, consequently constraining their effective application across diverse environmental thermal conditions in industrial settings.
