Structural Factors Affecting Cytotoxic Activity of (E)-1-(Benzo[d ][1,3]oxathiol-6-yl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-one Derivatives
PublicationDerivatives of (E)-1-(5-alkoxybenzo[d][1,3]oxathiol-6-yl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-one (1) demonstrated exceptionally high in vitro cytotoxic activity, with IC50 values of the most active derivatives in the nanomolar range. To identify structural fragments necessary for the activity, several analogs deprived of selected fragments were prepared, and their cytotoxic activity was tested. It was found that the activity depends on combined effects...

COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN OF ORGANOPHOSPHORUS INHIBITORS OF UREASE
PublicationBased on the structure of the most potential inhibitor diamidophosphate, various novel groups of inhibitors were developed by knowledge-based design approach with covalent carbon-phosphorus or carbon-phosphorus-carbon bond to improve hydrolytic stability to inhibit the microbial ureases. Designed compounds were evaluated with 10 (LigScore1, LigScore2, PLP1, PLP2, JAIN, PMF, PMF04, LUDI_1, LUDI_2 and LUDI_3) different scoring functions...

Synthesis and biological evaluation of fluorinated 3-phenylcoumarin-7-O-sulfamate derivatives as steroid sulfatase inhibitors
PublicationIn the present work, we report the initial results of our study on a series of 3-phenylcoumarin sulfamate-based compounds containing C-F bonds as a novel inhibitors of steroid sulfatase (STS). The new compounds are potent STS inhibitors, possessing more than 10 times higher inhibitory potency than coumarin-7-O-sulfamate. In the course of our investigation, compounds 2b and 2c demonstrated the highest inhibitory effect in the enzymatic...

The comparison of antioxidant properties and nutrigenomic redox-related activities of vitamin C, C-vitamers, and other common ascorbic acid derivatives
PublicationThe term ‘vitamin C’ describes a group of compounds with antiscorbutic activity of L-ascorbic acid (AA). Despite AA’s omnipresence in plant-derived foods, its derivatives have also been successfully implemented in the food industry as antioxidants, including the D-isomers, which lack vitamin C activity. This study aimed to determine the relationship between redox-related activities for five derivatives of AA using electrochemical,...

Procognitive activity of nitric oxide inhibitors and donors in animal models
PublicationNitric oxide is a small gaseous molecule that plays important roles in the majority of biological functions. Impairments of NO-related pathways contribute to the majority of neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and mental disorders, such as schizophrenia. Cognitive decline is one of the most serious impairments accompanying both AD and schizophrenia. In the present study, the activities of NO donors, slow (spermine...

Interactions between bioactive components determine antioxidant, cytotoxic and nutrigenomic activity of cocoa powder extract
PublicationNumerous studies have shown, rather disappointingly, that isolated bioactive phytochemicals are not as biologically effective as natural plant products. Such a discrepancy may be explained by the concept of food synergy, which was verified in this research for cocoa extract versus its major components with regard to cancer chemoprevention. The evaluation embraced the relationship between redox properties evaluated in cell-free systems...

Coupling of Blood Pressure and Subarachnoid Space Oscillations at Cardiac Frequency Evoked by Handgrip and Cold Tests: A Bispectral Analysis
PublicationThe aim of the study was to assess blood pressure–subarachnoid space (BP–SAS) width coupling properties using time–frequency bispectral analysis based on wavelet transforms during handgrip and cold tests. The experiments were performed on a group of 16 healthy subjects (F/M; 7/9) of the mean age 27.2 ± 6.8 years and body mass index of 23.8 ± 4.1 kg/m². The sequence of challenges was first handgrip and then cold test. The handgrip...

Antitumor Activity of Triazine Mimic Antibiotics for DNA-binding Implications (Impressive Activity in Vitro Against a Variety of Tumor Types in the NCI-60 Screen): NSC 710607 To Fight HCT-116 Human Colon Carcinoma Cell Lines in Vivo Using the Hollow Fiber Assay and Xenograft Mouse Models
PublicationPurpose Successful clinical applications of DNA-directed selective cytotoxic agents disrupt the vital replication/transcription processes and ultimately lead to cancer cell death. This study aimed to examine the growth screen of two lead triazine compounds in a number of cell lines and xenografts and to develop anticancer agents with noncovalent binding affinity bringing fewer side effects. Methods The NCI initial hollow...

Review of Recent Advancement on Nature/Bio-inspired Antenna Designs
PublicationThis article presents an extensive examination of antennas rooted in nature and biology, showcasing their remarkable performance across a wide spectrum of frequencies—from microwave to terahertz. The limitations of traditional antenna design have become increasingly evident in the face of burgeoning demands for novel communication technologies. Conventional analytical-equation-based approaches struggle to deliver the combined performance...

Phylogenetic trees of genus Oncidium Sw. based on analysis of DNA sequences
Open Research DataGenus Oncidium Sw. is widely regarded as a polyphiletic, and the taxonomic boundaries between him and such genera as Odontoglossum Kunth. or Miltonia Lindley remain blurred. The goal of the study was to determine the phylogenetic relationships within the genus Oncidium s.lato based on the DNA sequences analysis. The correlation between molecular data...
