Novel anthracene-based Schiff base derivative (4-(anthracen-9-ylmethylene) amino)-5-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol; AT2) is synthesized and utilized as an aggregation-induced emission-enhancement (AIEE) active probe to detect Zn2+ Tyrosine. Ultraviolet-visible absorption/photoluminescence (UV-vis/PL) spectroscopy studies on the AIEE property of AT2 (in ethanol) with increasing water fractions...

Biogenic amines play an important role in brain metabolism and functioning, participation synaptic transmission as neurotransmitters neuromodulators (dopamine, serotonin, histamine others). Catecholamines are formed from the essential amino acid phenylalanine by hydroxylating it to tyrosine with enzyme phenylalanine-4-hydroxylase, which is subsequently converted dioxyphenylalanine (DOPA) tyrosi...

Lignin is an underutilized sustainable source of aromatic compounds. To valorize the low-value lignin monomers, we proposed efficient strategy, involving enzymatic conversion from trans-p-hydroxycinnamic acids to generate valued-added canonical and non-canonical amino acids. Among them, β-amino are recognized as building blocks for bioactive natural products pharmaceutical ingredients due their...

suppression of akt (protein kinase b) has been implicated in schizophrenia, the effect which has been documented to be reversed by tyrosine phosphatase inhibition. t hus, present study has been designed to study the effect of sodium orthovanadate, a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, on protracted methionine administration induced schizophrenia like behavior in rats.   schizophrenia like behavior ...

the development and discovery of new anticancer agents is one of the main goals in medicinal chemistry. the conventional anticancer drugs are concomitant with high incidence of unpleasant side effects like severe gastrointestinal side effects and bone marrow suppression. in recent years, various selective anticancer agents have been emerged like dasatinib. the exact mechanism of dasatinib is th...

long-term potentiation (ltp) is a process that certain types of synaptic stimulation lead to a long-lasting enhancement in the strength of synaptic transmission. studies in recent years indicate the importance of molecular pathways in the development of memory and learning. tropomyosin receptor kinase b (trkb) is a member of the neurotrophin receptor tyrosine kinase family, that its ligand is b...

Sunitinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor which prevents tumor growth and metastatic progression. It was approved for treatment of advanced renal cell cancer, gastrointestinal stromal tumor and advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. It has several adverse reactions on multi organ systems including hematologic system. Although the neutropenia and thrombocytopenia commonly happens as Gra...

In this study, incorporation of iron ion-doped natrolite nanozeolite, multi-wall carbon nanotubes into chitosan-coated glassy carbon electrode for the simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid, epinephrine, uric acid and tyrosine is studied. The results show that the combination of multi-wall carbon nanotubes and iron ion-doped natrolite zeolite causes a dramatic enhancement in the sensitivit...

In this study, we aimed to determine VEGFR-2, EGFR and PDGFR-β tyrosine kinase inhibitory activities of some pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives previously synthesized and showed potent cytotoxic and apoptotic effects against several cancer cell lines by our group and to evaluate the relationships between inhibitory activities and binding properties of the active compounds by molecular docking...

accurate quantum chemical computations based on density functional theory (dft) were performed on the series of 2-(4-(naphthalen-2-yl)-1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-ylthio)-n-acetamide (tta) derivatives. the local reactivity of the acetamide derivatives as anti-hiv drugs were studied in terms of fukui functions in the framework of dft. the results based on the basis set superposition error (bsse) correcti...
