THE AIM OF THIS STUDY WAS TO INVESTIGATE THE CLINICAL EFFICACY OF VANADIUM COMPLEXES ON TRIGLYCERIDES (TG), TOTAL CHOLESTEROL (CHOL), URIC ACID (UA), UREA (U), AND ANTIOXIDANT PARAMETERS: nonenzymatic (FRAP-ferric reducing ability of plasma, and reduced glutathione-GSH) and enzymatic (glutathione peroxidase-GPx, catalase-CAT, and GPx/CAT ratio) activity in the plasma of healthy male Wistar rats...

Based on the data about structure and antidiabetic activity of twenty seven vanadium and zinc coordination complexes collected from literature we developed QSAR models using the GUSAR program. These QSAR models were applied to 10 novel vanadium coordination complexes designed in silico in order to predict their hypoglycemic action. The five most promising substances with predicted potent hypogl...

21 vanadium bis-phenolate benzimidazolyidene complexes spanning three oxidation states have been investigated. Special emphasis is thereby laid on their salt metathesis reactivity and the accessibility of +IV state by reductive or oxidative routes, starting from vanadium(V) vanadium(III) respectively. While route highly depended reducing agent material used, gives clean access to vanadium(IV) d...

The biological properties of vanadium complexes have become an object of interest due to their therapeutic potential in several diseases. However, the mechanisms of action of vanadium salts are still poorly understood. Vanadium complexes are cofactors for several enzymes and also exhibit insulin-mimetic properties. Thus, they are involved in the regulation of glucose metabolism, including in pa...

The application of metals in biological systems has been a rapidly growing branch science. Vanadium investigated and reported as an anticancer agent. Melanoma is the most aggressive type skin cancer, incidence which increasing annually worldwide. It paramount importance to identify novel pharmacological agents for melanoma treatment. Herein, systematic review publications including “Melanoma Va...

The general affinity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca (2+)-ATPase was examined for three different classes of vanadium coordination complexes including a vanadium(V) compound, pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylatodioxovanadium(V) (PDC-V(V)), and two vanadium(IV) compounds, bis(maltolato)oxovanadium(IV) (BMOV), and an analogue of amavadine, bis( N-hydroxylamidoiminodiacetato)vanadium(IV) (HAIDA-V(IV))...

1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-5-pyrazolone 4-ethyl-thiosemicarbazone (HL) and its copper(II), vanadium(V) and nickel(II) complexes: [Cu(L)(Cl)]·C₂H₅OH·(1), [Cu(L)₂]·H₂O (2), [Cu(L)(Br)]·H₂O·CH₃OH (3), [Cu(L)(NO₃)]·2C₂H₅OH (4), [VO₂(L)]·2H₂O (5), [Ni(L)₂]·H₂O (6), were synthesized and characterized. The ligand has been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, (1) H NMR and (13) C NMR spectroscopy....

A new solvo-hydrothermal method has been developed for the synthesis of uniform vanadium oxide nanocrystals (NCs) with various sizes and shapes in aliphatic amine/toluene/water using V(V) diperoxo alkylammonium complexes. The vanadium complex precursors were prepared from an ion exchange reaction of V(V) diperoxo gels and tetraalkylammonium bromide in the water-toluene mixture using H(2)O(2) so...

Density functional theory has been used to investigate structural, electronic and reactivity properties of complexes related to the peroxo forms of vanadium haloperoxidases (VHPO). In particular, the reactivity of the cofactor as a function of protonation state and environment, which are two factors thought to be crucial in modulating the activity of the enzyme, has been examined. In full agree...

Infrared spectra of complexes of small vanadium oxide clusters with ethene are determined using infrared multiple photon dissociation (IR-MPD) spectroscopy in the range of 550-1850 cm-1. The structures of the complexes have been identified by comparison of the experimental spectra with the harmonic vibrational frequencies and corresponding IR intensities of possible isomers calculated with DFT ...
