This study investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of DEC on the CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity in C57BL/6 mice. Chronic inflammation was induced by i.p. administration of CCl4 0.5 μL/g of body weight through two injections a week for 6 weeks. DEC (50 mg/kg) was administered by gavage for 12 days before finishing the CCl4 induction. Histological analyses of the DEC-treated group exhibited reduc...

The title adamantane derivative, C(19)H(25)NO(2), was synthesized as part of a study into potential anti-tuberculosis agents. The adamantane skeleton displays shorter than normal C-C bond lengths ranging between 1.5230 (15) and 1.5329 (16) Å. The structure displays O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding and an inter-digitated layered packing structure with distinct hydro-philic and hydro-phobic regions.
