Abstract The aim of this work was to be combine two pharmocophoric nuclei viz, triazole and chalcone and evaluate their antitubercular activity. Propargylated vanillin was condensed with differently substituted acetophenones to produce various chalcones (3a-c). Propargyl chalcones were then made to react with benzyl azides (2a-d) using the technique of Click chemistry and this reaction yielded triazole-chalcone hybrids (4a-l) in good yields, ranged from 34 to 93%. These hybrids were evaluated for their antitubercular activity, from the results it was found that triazole and chalcone on combination exhibited enhanced bioactivity thereby supported the theory of synergistic effect. The conjugate 4a and 4f were found to be most potent with MIC of 1.6 µg/ml. Molecular docking studies of bioactive compounds were in good congruence with in-vitro studies.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be the most threatening cause of death in recent years. There is urgent need of search more potent, less toxic antitubercular agents. Methods: A set of five new 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl-imidazo-1,2-pyridine derivatives (4a-4e) was synthesized and screened invitro for their antibacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (H37 RV strain) ATCC No-27294. Results: Compound 4b displayed potent antitubercular activity at MIC 6.25 µg/mL. In-silico molecular docking studies were performed for evaluation of the binding patterns of compounds 4a-4e in the binding site of proteins like, Pantothenate synthatase and enoyl acyl reductase inhibitor. The outcomes of the in- vitro antitubercular studies were in well agreement with the molecular docking studies. These newly synthesized compounds were found to have good ADMET profile. We also explored possible anticancer activity using in-silico methods. Conclusion: These results shows that readily synthesized 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl-imidazo-1,2-pyridine derivatives (4a-4e) are attracting new class of potent anti-TB targets as well as possible anticancer activity that worth additional opportunities for improvements.

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.

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>
