Acovenoside A, a cardenolide glycoside from Acokanthera oppositifolia, demonstrates significant therapeutic potential in cardioprotection and oncology, particularly against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its toxicological profile requires thorough evaluation for safe pharmaceutical application. For this purpose a comprehensive in silico methods were applied, including ACD/Labs Percepta, STopTox, admetSAR 3.

Background/purpose: Taste impairment is a common yet complex toxicity of head and neck cancer (HNC) radiotherapy treatment that may affect quality of life of survivors. This study aimed to predict acute and late taste impairment using taste bud bearing tongue mucosa as a new taste-specific organ-at-risk compared to full oral cavity as identified in previous studies.
Materials/methods: Included HNC patients were treated with curative radiotherapy between 2007 and 2022.

One of the main factors that have made it difficult to control malaria is the large number of parasites that are resistant to the usual antimalarial drugs. Therefore, the development of new drugs that are more effective and with low toxicity for humans is necessary. In this work, we evaluated the adduct 2-(3-hydroxy-1-methyl-2-oxoindolin-3-yl) acrylonitrile, also called CHISACN, as a potential antimalarial through in vitro studies, and evaluated its effects in silico and in vivo toxicology.

The multi-target directed ligands (MTDLs) strategy has been evolved as the propitious approach for the development of therapeutics for Alzheimer's disease (AD). In an earlier report, we described the novel series of chalcone derivatives bearing N-aryl piperazine scaffold as MTDLs for the treatment of AD. Herein, we report the lead optimization of the series culminating in potent, multi-targeting compounds (32-57), evaluated through in-vitro and in-vivo biological studies.

The 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) mouse model remains the most extensively utilized animal model for Parkinson's disease (PD). Treatment regimens are classified into three categories: acute, subacute, and chronic. Among these, the MPTP with probenecid (MPTP/p)-induced chronic mouse model is favored for its capacity to sustain long-term striatal dopamine depletion, though the resultant behavioral, biochemical, and molecular alterations require further validation.
