Since melanocytes are the origin of melanoma and some skin disorders such as melasma, they are important cells from the perspective of medicinal chemistry. Therefore, a medication that can simultaneously overcome these diseases will be a successful potential therapeutic agent. Arbutin with phenolic structure is a powerful natural anti-tyrosinase agent. Hence, the phenolic structure of this drug...

Here, we report the development, computational modeling, in vitro enzymology, and biological application of an activity-based fluorescent sensor for human phenol sulfotransferase SULT1A1.

Pathogenic infections and inflammation are very common ailments humans suffer. Upsurge of resistant pathogens has impeded the antimicrobial drug development process in recent years and the search of new antimicrobial agents is clearly evident from the literature. In line with these developments the synthesis of N-substituted aryl-2-({4-[(substituted aryl carbamoyl) methyl]-5-(pyridin-4-yl)-4H-1...

Objective(s): In an attempt to discover new natural active extracts against malaria parasites, the present study evaluated the antiplasmodial properties of selected plants based on Iranian traditional medicine. Materials and Methods: Ten plant species found in Iran were selected and collected based on the available literature about the Iranian traditional medicine. The methanolic extracts of th...

There has been special interest in the chemistry of quinolone and pyrimidine derivatives due to their diverse biological activities such as anticonvulsant, anti-malarial agents, antibacterial, antiviral, cytostatic, antithelemintic, antigenotoxic, anti-cancer agents. These compounds are also used as targeting delayed-type hypersensivity and anti-convulsant agents. As a part of our research work...
