Aminosteroids were prepared and acylated with protected amino acids by means of the mixed anhydride or the active ester method. The tert-butyloxycarbonyl- (BOC) protecting group was eliminated by acidolysis, and the benzyloxycarbonyl- (Z) group by catalytic hydrogenation. 3 beta- and 6 beta-Glycylamidosteroids were prepared by indirect amination of chloroacetamido derivatives, formed by the Ritter reaction on the corresponding 3 alpha,5 alpha-cyclo and 5 alpha,6 alpha-epoxy steroids. Water-soluble double salts were produced from the compounds for pharmacological investigations.

Experimental studies of chronic noise exposure in modern urban life testified about oxidative stress due to the corresponding hormones effects leading to accumulation of reactive oxygen species and endothelial dysfunction. This study aims to evaluate the protective effect of α2-adrenoblockers to modulate oxidative stress and corticosterone levels due to chronic noise exposure. To achieve this, we examined the effects of beditin (2-aminothiozolyl-1,4-benzodioxane) and mesedin (2-(2-methyl-amino-thiozolyl)-1,4-benzodioxane hydrochloride), along with changes in corticosterone, Ca2 + content, and morphological alterations in various tissues under noise-induced stress.

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are commonly employed in clinical treatment for various diseases due to their ability to differentiate into multi-lineage and anti-inflammatory/immunomodulatory properties. Preclinical studies support their use for bone regeneration, healing, and the improvement of functional outcomes. However, a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying ASC biology is crucial to identifying key regulatory pathways that influence differentiation and enhance regenerative potential.

Healthy dietary patterns rich in legumes can improve metabolic health, although their additional benefits in conjunction with calorie restriction have not been well-established. We investigated effects of a calorie-restricted, legume-enriched, multicomponent intervention diet compared with a calorie-restricted control diet in 127 Chinese prediabetes participants, living in Singapore. The study was a 16-week, single-blind, parallel-design, randomized controlled trial (n = 63 intervention group (IG), n = 64 control group (CG); mean ± SD age 62.

Cardiac glycosides, known as inhibitors of Na,K-ATPase, have anti-cancer effects such as suppression of cancer cell proliferation and induction of cancer cell death. Here, we examined the signaling pathway elicited by cardiac glycosides in the human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells and human epidermoid carcinoma KB cells. Three kinds of cardiac glycosides (ouabain, oleandrin, and digoxin) inhibited the cancer cell proliferation and decreased the expression level of thyroid adenoma-associated protein (THADA).

A higher death rate is associated with multiple factors, including medication resistance and co-infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This shows the need to obtain new and effective drug candidates in improving tuberculosis (TB) treatment. In addition, the phosphatidylinositol mannosyltransferase (PimA) enzyme starts the production of phosphatidyl-myo-inositol.
