Quercetin, a natural compound present in various fruits and vegetables, shows promise as a potential inhibitor for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) development. This study aims to examine the anti-GBM potential of Quercetin. The protein target of Quercetin is identified and analyzed using databases such as NCBI, SEA, CTD, and STRING. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) and functional annotation are carried out based on the obtained target proteins. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations are employed using AutoDock Vina and WebGro tools to analyze the interaction between Quercetin and its target proteins. The prediction of protein targets reveals that Quercetin directly targets four proteins associated …

Karbala International Journal of Modern Science
Pleurotus ostreatus is a common cultivated edible mushroom worldwide. The fruiting bodies of P. ostreatus is a rich source of a β-glucans polysaccharide. The current study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of β-glucans as a natural polysaccharide produced by P. ostreatus as an antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer. The molecular identification of P. ostreatus isolate was confirmed by Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) sequence. The sequence alignment and phylogenetic evolutionary relationship of studied ITS sequence were performed against some deposited sequences in GenBank. The analysis of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) as well as the result of fourier transform infrared spectroscopy …
Biological Potential Of Copper Complexes: A Review, Jamshaid Ashraf, Muhammad Asad Riaz
Biological Potential Of Copper Complexes: A Review, Jamshaid Ashraf, Muhammad Asad Riaz
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
This review comprises the inorganic compounds particularly metal coordinated complexes, as drugs play a relevant role in medicinal chemistry. It has been observed that copper complexes are potentially attractive as medicinal importance. In this review, the most remarkable achievements of copper complexes undertaken over the past few decades as antimicrobial, antioxidant, enzyme inhibition activity, and anti-cancer agents are discussed. This work was motivated by the observation that no comprehensive surveys of the diversity of biological activities of copper complexes were available in the literature.

Lantana camara L. (L. camara) is a perennial shrub that contains low amounts of alkaloids. In the present study, the magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were used to isolate positively charged alkaloids from the methanolic extract of L. camara leaves. The crude alkaloid was fractionated using HPLC to separate the highest peak of the alkaloid fraction (HPAF). The crude alkaloids (CA) and HPAF were tested for their antiproliferative effect against cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HCT-116, and HeLa) and endothelial cells line (EA.hy926) as a standard cell line. Antiangiogenic properties were examined using rat aortic ring assay. …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
In this study, novel 2-substituted benzimidazoles molecules having triazole, thiadiazole, and oxadiazole rings were synthesized and were evaluated by anticancer, antioxidant/oxidant status, genotoxicity, and antiangiogenesis assays. Anticancer activity of the compounds was determined by MTT (0.5, 5, and 50 $\mu $g/mL) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assays against human prostate and breast cancer cells. Oxidative status of cells was elicited by total oxidative stress and total antioxidant capacity methods. Chick chorioallantoic membrane assay was used to evaluate the antiangiogenic activity. Genotoxicity was evaluated by the sister chromatid exchange (SCE) and micronucleus (MN) tests in lymphocyte cultured human blood. Our results …
Tetrahydropyridine: A Promising Heterocycle For Pharmacologically Active Molecules, Noor Ul Amin Mohsin, Matloob Ahmad
Tetrahydropyridine: A Promising Heterocycle For Pharmacologically Active Molecules, Noor Ul Amin Mohsin, Matloob Ahmad
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The tetrahydropyridine (THP) ring system has received considerable focus due to its excellent ability to act as a pharmacophore. It is recognized as a major constituent in natural alkaloids. THP derivatives have been reported for a diverse range of biological activities. Recent synthetic works contain syntheses of monosubstituted, disubstituted, trisubstituted, highly functionalized, and condensed structures. In this review, we summarize the recent literature dealing with the bioactive nature of this important heterocycle.

Isatin, 1H-indoline-2,3-dione, an endogenous compound, is also a synthetically versatile molecule that possesses a diversity of biological activities including anticonvulsant, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anticancer, and cytotoxic properties. Based on the promising cytotoxic activity studies on N-substituted isatin derivatives, a series of 18 derivatives of 2-(2,3-dioxo-2,3-dihydro- 1H-indol-1-yl)-N-phenylacetamide were designed, synthesized, and characterized according to their analytical and spectral data. All of the compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity against MCF7, A549, HeLa, and HEK293 cell lines by real time cell analyzer. Etoposide was used as a standard compound. Briefly, ortho substitutions gave better results compared to meta and para substitutions …
