Identification of a new class of potent aldose reductase inhibitors: Design, microwave-assisted synthesis, in vitro and in silico evaluation of 2-pyrazolines
(Elsevier, 2021)
Aldose reductase (AR) acts as a multi-disease target for the design and development of therapeutic agents for the management of diabetic complications as well as non-diabetic diseases. In the search for potent AR inhibitors, ...
An extensive research on aldose reductase inhibitory effects of new 4H-1,2,4-triazole derivatives
(Elsevier, 2021)
Aldose reductase (AR) is a key enzyme, which triggers the excessive accumulation of sorbitol in insulin independent tissues leading to severe diabetes-induced microvascular complications. Substantial evidence has proven ...
Novel benzoic acid derivatives: Synthesis and biological evaluation as multitarget acetylcholinesterase and carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
(Wiley, 2020)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by dementia, memory impairment, cognitive dysfunction, and speech impairment. The utility of cholinergic replacement by acetylcholinesterase (AChE) ...
Novel metabolic enzyme inhibitors designed through the molecular hybridization of thiazole and pyrazoline scaffolds
(Wiley, 2021)
New hybrid thiazolyl-pyrazoline derivatives (4a-k) were obtained through a facile and versatile synthetic procedure, and their inhibitory effects on the human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) isoforms I and II as well as on ...
Purification of the phytase enzyme fromLactobacillus plantarum: The effect on pansy growth and macro-micro element content
(Wiley, 2021)
In the present study, the phytase enzyme was purified fromLactobacillus plantarumwith a 3.08% recovery, 9.57-purification fold, and with a specific activity of 278.82 EU/mg protein. Then, the effects of the 5 EU and 10 EU ...
Calcium Channel Blockers: The Effect of Glutathione S-Transferase Enzyme Activity and Molecular Docking Studies
(Wiley, 2021)
Recently, as a drug target in cancer treatment, the superfamily of glutathione S-transferase (GSTs, EC 2.5.1.18) have been invited considerable interest by scientists. In particular, as they are overexpressed in many human ...
Infection Medications: Assessment In-Vitro Glutathione S-Transferase Inhibition and Molecular Docking Study
(Wiley, 2021)
Glutathione S-transferases (EC 2.5.1.18, GSTs), consisting of at least seven subfamilies, such as alpha, kappa, mu, pi, theta, zeta, and omega, are the family of cytosolic proteins with many known functions and also are ...
Design, synthesis, in vitro and in silico investigation of aldose reductase inhibitory effects of new thiazole-based compounds
(Academic Press-Elsevier Science, 2020)
Aldose reductase (AR) catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of glucose to sorbitol in the polyol pathway, which plays an important role in the development of diabetic complications including cataract, retinopathy, ...
Some calcium-channel blockers: kinetic andin silicostudies on paraoxonase-I
(Taylor & Francis, 2020)
Many drugs, which are used in clinical treatments, show pharmacological effects on enzyme activity with an essential role in the pathogenesis of various diseases. Paraoxonase-I (PON1) is a member of the mammalian lactonase ...
Determination of the inhibition profiles of pyrazolyl–thiazole derivatives against aldose reductase and α-glycosidase and molecular docking studies.
(Wiley, 2020)
Aldose reductase (AR) is the first and rate-limiting enzyme of the polyol pathway, which converts glucose to sorbitol in an NADPH-dependent reaction. alpha-Glycosidase breaks down starch and disaccharides to glucose. Hence, ...
