In view of potential biological activities of small molecule polyamides, we synthesized some novel N-(2-aminoethyl)-1-benzyl-2- (alkylthio)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamide (7a,b), and N-(2-(1-benzyl-2-(alkylthio) -1H-imidazole- 5-carboxamido) ethyl)-1-benzyl-2- (alkylthio)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxamides (8a,b) as antitumor agents. The antitumor activity of compounds 7a,b and 8a,b was studied at c...

physalis angulata is a medicinal plant used for the treatment of malaria, ulcer, pains and other diverse ailments. the present study evaluated the analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity of methanolic leaf extract of the plant. acetic acid-induced abdominal contraction or writhing analgesic models in swiss albino mice (13-23g) were used for studying analgesic activity of the leaf extract. 200,...

In the present study, using anti-sense oligonucleotides the inhibition of expression of the PML protein hasbeen investigated. The anti-sense oligonucleotides were designed against the translation initiation site ofthe PML gene, and their effects were investigated on cellular growth and DNA synthesis. Incubation of normalhuman fibroblast cells with the anti-sense oligonucleotid...
