Several synthetic aromatase inhibitors are currently in clinical use for the treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone-receptor positive breast cancer. However, these treatments may lead to untoward side effects and so a search for new aromatase inhibitors continues, especially those for which the activity is promoter-specific, targeting the breast-specific promoters I.3 and II. Recently, ...

Natural inhibitors of fatty acid synthase (FAS) are emerging as potential therapeutic agents to treat cancer and obesity. The bioassay-guided chemical investigation of the hulls of Garcinia mangostana led to the isolation of 13 phenolic compounds (1-13) mainly including xanthone and benzophenone, in which compounds 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 were isolated from this plant for the first time and compoun...

In this study, we applied structure-based virtual screening techniques to identify natural product or natural product-like inhibitors of iNOS. The iNOS inhibitory activity of the hit compounds was characterized using cellular assays and an in vivo zebrafish larvae model. The natural product-like compound 1 inhibited NO production in LPS-stimulated Raw264.7 macrophages, without exerting cytotoxi...

combination therapy with clomiphene citrate plus gonadotropin (clomiphene citrate plus hmg) in induction ovulation reduce the gonadotropins dose but antiestrogenic effect of c.c. can decrease pregnancy rate. in a randomized clinical trial we compared 3 treatment protocol for induction ovulation and intra uterine insemination (i/o plus iui) in women with infertility history more than one year, n...

Abstract The inability of metals to resist degradation as a result corrosion remains unique global problem that depend on different for daily operations. Therefore, knowing the appropriate method use is key ameliorate effect metals. Green inhibitors serve modern, cheaper and environmentally favorable retard effects corrosion. Drugs are which can reduce action without being hazardous environment...
