Recent studies showed that 1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbamoyl derivatives with lipophilic groups have significant antitubercular activity. In this study, we have synthesized new derivatives of 1,4-dihydropyridines bearing carbmethoxy and carbethoxy group at C-3 and C-5 of the 1,4-dihydropyridine ring. In addition, 1H-pyrazole ring is substituted at C-4 position. These analogues were synthesize...

Objective: The present study discusses the molecular docking of Hentriacontane for its Anti-tubercular and Anti-cancer activity. Methods: Two protein targets were selected their structures taken from RCSB Protein Data Bank in PDB format. Preparation proteins was done using Discovery Studio 2021 Client. structure drawn ChemDraw 20.0 saved Mol Molecular performed PyRx software. 3D 2D interactions...

Three new biflavonoids, wikstaiwanones A-C (1-3), along with four known compounds (4-7) were isolated from the stems of Wikstroemia taiwanensis (Thymelaeaceae). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis. Compounds 4 and 5 showed antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis with MIC values of 15 μg/mL, respectively.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of tuberculosis, an ancient disease which, still today, represents a major threat for the world population. Despite the advances in medicine and the development of effective antitubercular drugs, the cure of tuberculosis involves prolonged therapies which complicate the compliance and monitoring of drug administration and treatment. Moreover, th...

Translocase I inhibitor compounds derived from capuramycin demonstrated rapid bactericidal activity against several different mycobacterial species. SQ641 was the most active of the compounds, with a MIC of 0.12 to 8 microg/ml, a postantibiotic effect of 55 h, and interesting synergistic effects with other antitubercular drugs.
