Background: The 1,4-naphthoquinone ring has attracted prominent interest in the field of medicinal chemistry due to its potent pharmacological activity as antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer. Objective: Herein, a series of new Schiff bases (4-6) and chalcones (8a-c & 9a-d) bearing 1,4-naphthoquinone moiety were synthesized in good yields and were subjected to in-vitro antimicrobial, antioxidant, and molecular docking testing. Methods: A facile protocol has been described in this study for the synthesis of new derivatives (4-7, 8a-c, and 9a-d) bearing 1,4-naphthoquinone moiety. The chemical structures of all the synthesized compounds were identified by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, MS, and elemental analyses. Moreover, these derivatives were assessed for their in-vitro antimicrobial activity against gram-positive, gram-negative bacteria, and fungal strains. Further studies were conducted to test their antioxidant activity using DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) scavenging assay. Molecular docking studies were realized to identify the most likely interactions of the novel compounds within the protein receptor. Results: The antimicrobial results showed that most of the compounds displayed good efficacy against both bacterial and fungal strains. The antioxidant study revealed that compounds 9d, 9a, 9b, 8c, and 6 exhibited the highest radical scavenging activity. Docking studies of the most active antimicrobial compounds within GLN- 6-P, recorded good scores with several binding interactions with the active sites. Conclusion: Based on the obtained results, it was found that compounds 8b, 9b, and 9c displayed the highest activity against both bacterial and fungal strains. The obtained findings from the DPPH radical scavenging method revealed that compounds 9d and 9a exhibited the strongest scavenging potential. The molecular docking studies proved that the most active antimicrobial compounds 8b, 9b and 9c displayed the highest energy binding scores within the glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase (GlcN-6-P) active site.

Weight Variation

Objective: The aim of this study was to develop polymer coated sustained release tablet using sorafenib and silibinin combination for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods: The qualitative analysis such as weight variation, friability, hardness, interaction studies, disintegration and in vitro release were performed to validate formulated tablets. We have maintained the acceptable official limits for weight variation, friability, hardness and disintegration time according to prescribed pharmacopoeial recommendation. In vitro drug release studies were performed using USP-II (paddle type) dissolution apparatus. The MTT assay was performed for assessment of Cell viability of drug combination for tablet formulation. Molecular docking studies have been performed to determine the combinatorial mode of action for the tablet formulation.Results: Friability and weight variation were less than 1% for each formulation, which were within range of prescribed pharmacopoeial recommendation. The hardness of 20 tablets showed 5-6.5Kg/cm2 for all formulations 5-6.5Kg/cm2. The optimized formulation resulted in 98% drug release after 28 h. The present study reports the synergistic effects of drug combination to inhibit cell growth in HepG2 cell line. Molecular docking studies showed that sorafenib has high binding affinity for B-Raf vascular endothelial growth factor receptor β and protein kinase B. Silibinin showed binding affinity with MAP kinase-11, protein phosphatase 2 A and tankyrase.Conclusion: The present study reports for the first time a novel formulation for sustained release and reduced toxicity of sorafenib with enhanced inhibitory effect of the drug combination on cancerous hepatic cell line as well collaborative mechanism of action for the formulation.

<p class="Abstract">Seven novel dispiro-1,2,4,5-tetraoxane derivatives were synthesized and characterized by a number of analytical and spectroscopic techniques. The molecules were subsequently screened for in vitro antimalarial activity against chloroquine resistant strain of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> (RKL-9). At antimalarial activity screening, two compounds, namely 5d (MIC = 15.6 µg/mL or 64.5 µM) and 5f (MIC = 15.6 µg/mL or 54.6 µM) were found to be about 1.5 times more potent against chloroquine resistant strain-RKL-9 compared to chloroquine (MIC = 25.0 µg/mL or 78.3 µM). Molecular docking studies of potent ligands were also performed in cysteine protease binding pocket residues of falcipain-2 as a target protein.</p><p> </p>

<p class="Abstract">The present study aimed at the evaluation of anti-hyperglycemic and hepatoprotective potential of a new drug candidate, 5-[(4-chlorophenoxy) methyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol (OXCPM) through in vitro and in vivo assays, respectively. The compound displayed excellent dose-dependent ɑ-amylase (28.0-92.0%), ɑ-glucosidase (40.3-93.1%) and hemoglobin glycosylation (9.0%-54.9%) inhibitory effects and promoted the uptake of glucose by the yeast cells (0.2 to 26.3%). The treatment of the isoniazid- and rifampicin- (p.o., 50 mg/kg of each) intoxicated rats with OXCPM (100 mg/kg, p.o.) resulted in restoring the normal serum levels of the non-enzymatic (total bilirubin, total protein and albumin) and bringing about a remarkable decrease in the levels of enzymatic (alanine transaminases, aspartate transaminases and alkaline phosphatase) biomarkers. The molecular docking studies indicated high binding affinity of the compound for hyperglycemia-related protein targets; fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, beta<sub>2</sub>-adrenergic receptors and glucokinase. The results indicate that OXCPM may not only reduce hyperglycemia by enzyme inhibition but also the disease complications through protection of hemoglobin glycosylation and hepatic injury.</p><p class="Abstract"><strong>Video Clip of Methodology:</strong></p><p class="Abstract">Glucose uptake by yeast cells:   4 min 51 sec   <a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/8cJkuMtV0Wc">Full Screen</a>   <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cJkuMtV0Wc">Alternate</a></p>
