Studies on Acenaphthene Derivatives. VI

Studies on Digitalis VI

T IS undisputed that the administration of digitalis to patients with many forms of congestive heart failure results in an improvement in both the clinical state and in the abnormal circulatory dynamics that are characteristic of heart failure.'-6 The effects of digitalis in subjects without heart failure are less well defined. Although some glycosides augment the contractile force of nonfailin...

Lipophilicity Studies on Thiosemicarbazide Derivatives.

The lipophilicity of two series of thiosemicarbazide derivatives was assessed by the RP-HPLC method with the RP-18 chromatographic column and the methanol-water mixture as the mobile phase. Distribution coefficients logPHPLC were compared to calculated values generated by commonly used AClogP software and quantum chemical calculations. The reliability of the predictions was evaluated using the ...

Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel acenaphthene derivatives as potential antitumor agents.

Twelve novel acenaphthene derivatives have been synthesized. The structures of all compounds were confirmed by ¹H-NMR, MS and elemental analysis. Their antitumor activities were evaluated in six human solid tumor cell lines, namely non-small cell lung cancer (H460), human colon adenocarcinoma (SW480), human breast cancer cell (MDA-MB-468 and SKRB-3), human melanoma cell (A375) and human pancrea...

Molecular docking studies on xanthohumol derivatives as novel ‎anticancer agents ‎

A set of Xanthohumol derivatives were selected and molecular docking studies of these ‎compounds on thioredoxin reductase were conducted. Based on new structural patterns using in ‎silico-screening study, new potent lead compounds were designed. The results due to validated ‎docking protocols lead to find that Thr58, Gly57, Gly21, Asp334, Glu163, Ala130, IIe332, ‎Val44 and Gly132 are the main a...
