P122: Small Molecules as Chemical and Pharmacological Tools for Neuroinflammatory Diseases Treatment (with Emphasis on Multiple Sclerosis)
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neuroinflammatory disease resulting in degeneration of the myelin sheaths and death of oligodendrocytes. So far, several strategies have been introduced to control the disease. Treatment with small molecules is one of the strategies that have recently attracted the attention in the scientific community. These molecules that target epigenetic and other cellular proce...
متن کاملCarbon Nanotubes as Near Infrared Radiation (NIR) Molecules for Cancer treatment
Introduction: The photo-thermal therapy by nanoparticles has been recently known as an efficient strategy for the cancer treatment. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been extensively studied in biomedical application due to the easy uptake and high permeability in the cells, biocompatibility in biological environments and also their unique electrical, thermal properties. They genera...
متن کاملExcitation of interstellar molecules by near infrared PAH photons
We have developed an excitation model for small molecules including radiative pumping by dust photons from near infrared to submillimeter wavelengths. This model applies to molecules within bright photodissociation regions in galactic star-forming regions and starburst galaxies. In such environments, the near infrared photons emitted by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon molecules (PAHs) or small ...
متن کاملDisordered binding of small molecules to Aβ(12-28).
In recent years, an increasing number of small molecules and short peptides have been identified that interfere with aggregation and/or oligomerization of the Alzheimer β-amyloid peptide (Aβ). Many of them possess aromatic moieties, suggesting a dominant role for those in interacting with Aβ along various stages of the aggregation process. In this study, we attempt to elucidate whether interact...
متن کاملAnalysis of Molecular Interactions Using the Thermophoresis Method and its Applications in Neuroscience and Biological Processes
Introduction: Molecular interactions play an important role in the phenomenon and biological processes. In fact, any cellular biological process ranged from genetic replication to the production of various proteins to the transmission of neurological, hormonal, membrane involves collections of molecular interactions that occur continuously. Interference in each of these processes at every stage...
