[ 1 ] - Novel N-2-(Furyl)-2-(chlorobenzyloxyimino) ethyl Piperazinyl Quinolones: Synthesis, Cytotoxic Evaluation and Structure-activity Relationship

Quinolone antibacterials are one of the most important classes of pharmacological agents known as potent inhibitors of bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV that efficiently inhibit DNA replication and transcription by generating several double-stranded DNA break. Some quinolone derivatives demonstrated inhibitory potential against eukaryote topoismarase II and substantial dose-dependent cy...

[ 3 ] - Phytochemical Constituents and Biological Activities of Salvia suffruticosa

Background and objectives: Salvia suffruticosa is a perennial plant from Lamiaceae family. Many Salvia species have been employed as medicinal plants; despite the medicinal potentials of S. suffruticosa, there is limited studies regarding its phytochemical profile or biological properties. The aim of the present study was to investigate the chemical c...

[ 4 ] - Oliveria decumbens, a bioactive essential oil: Chemical composition and biological activities

Oliveria decumbens is an aromatic plant traditionally used for treatment of infections and gastrointestinal diseases. In the present study, the volatile oil of the plant was obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-MS. In addition, antibacterial and anti-Helicobacter pylori activities of this essential oil were determined using disc diffusion and agar dilution methods, respectively. Ins...
