Previous quantitative and qualitative structure-activity studies in antibacterial monosubstituted 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acids prompted us to synthesize the 6,7,8-polysubstituted compounds. In this paper, the preparation and antibacterial activity of the 6,7- and 7,8-disubstituted compounds and their derivatives are described. Among these compounds, 1-ethyl-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(1-piperazinyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid (34) possessed many significant activities and was more active than oxolinic acid (84) against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Structure-activity relationships are discussed.

Infectious diseases, including bacterial, fungal, and viral, have once again gained urgency in the drug development pipeline after the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Tuberculosis (TB) is an old infectious disease for which eradication has not yet been successful. Novel agents are required to have potential activity against both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of TB.

The antimicrobial properties of silver and silver complexes have been known in medicine since ancient times. However, limitations in stability and solubility have impaired medicinal chemistry and drug development research. With the advent of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) as ligands, the development of synthesis methods for organometallic silver species of the type (NHC)AgX (where X = halide) has brought significant improvements, and the class of antimicrobial silver NHC complexes has emerged.

This study reports a green, multi-component synthesis of 2-aminoimidazole-linked quinoxaline Schiff bases using a novel superparamagnetic acid catalyst. The catalyst consists of sulfo-anthranilic acid (SAA) immobilized on MnCoFeO@alginate magnetic nanorods (MNRs), achieving high SAA loading (1.8 mmol g) and product yields (91-97%).

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has revolutionized the treatment of hematologic malignancies, achieving remarkable clinical success with FDA-approved therapies targeting CD19 and BCMA. However, the extension of these successes to solid tumors remains limited due to several intrinsic challenges, including antigen heterogeneity and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironments. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in CAR T cell therapy aimed at overcoming these obstacles.

The natural world is a vast reservoir of exceptionally varied and inventive chemical compositions. Natural products are used as initial compounds to create combinatorial libraries by targeted modifications and then by analyzing their structure-activity connections. This stage is regarded as a crucial milestone in drug discovery and development.
