Screening of Insecticidal Activity of Podophyllotoxin Analogues against Athetis dissimilis

Identification of Putative Chemosensory Receptor Genes from the Athetis dissimilis Antennal Transcriptome

Olfaction plays a crucial role in insect population survival and reproduction. Identification of the genes associated with the olfactory system, without the doubt will promote studying the insect chemical communication system. In this study, RNA-seq technology was used to sequence the antennae transcriptome of Athetis dissimilis, an emerging crop pest in China with limited genomic information, ...

comparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.

heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...

SYNTHESIS AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF NOVEL NITROGEN CONTAINING ANALOGUES OF PODOPHYLLOTOXIN B.Umesha

Antiviral activity of nucleoside analogues against norovirus.

BACKGROUND Norovirus (NoV) is the leading cause of epidemic gastroenteritis worldwide. The lack of a cell culture has significantly hampered the development of effective therapies against human NoV. Clinically approved nucleoside and non-nucleoside analogues have been used successfully against RNA viruses. METHODS In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of four nucleoside analogues (2'-C-MeC...

Synthesis and Cytotoxicity of Novel Analogues of Podophyllotoxin

We have synthesized four novel derivatives of podophyllotoxin, the chalcone derivatives namely 2benzylidene-6,7-dimethoxy-4-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one (4a), 2-benzylidene-5,7-dichloro-6hydroxy-4-phenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-naphthalen-1-one(4b), and the amino-thiazolyl derivatives namely7,8dimethoxy-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-naphtha[1,2-d] thiazol-2-yl amine (5a) and 2-amino-6,8-dichloro-5-phen...
