1. METABOLIC PROFILING AND CYTOTOXIC ACTIVITY OF METHANOL EXTRACTS FROM CHAMAECRISTA DUCKEANA (P. BEZERRA & A. FERN.) H. S. IRWIN & BARNEBY (LEGUMINOSAE, CAESALPINIOIDEAE)
The genus Chamaecrista comprises more than 330 species, with only a few studies on their chemical composition and biologic activities. In this study, the phytochemical profile of leaf, stems, and fruits extracts of the C. duckeana were examined by UPLC ESI HRMS analysis to determine possibly bioactive constituents. The antioxidant activity was carried out th

2. The effects of thymoquinone on pancreatic cancer and immune cells
SUMMARY OBJECTIVES: Black cumin is widely used as a spice and as a traditional treatment. The active ingredient in black cumin seeds is thymoquinone. Thymoquinone has shown anticancer effects in some cancers. We planned to investigate its anticancer effect on pancreatic cancer cell lines. METHODS: Thymoquinone chemical component in various doses was prepar

3. Association of recurrent upper respiratory tract infections with low production of oxygen intermediates in children
Abstract Objectives: Upper respiratory tract infections in children generally have significant morbidity and mortality. There is little data available about functional immaturity of the immune system and the child’s susceptibility to infections at the beginning of their lives, thus, justifying a more specific immunological analysis. Method: Analysis of h

4. Ozone combined with doxorubicin exerts cytotoxic and anticancer effects on Luminal-A subtype human breast cancer cell line
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: We aimed to examine the potential anticancer effects of ozone applied after chemotherapeutic treatment with different concentrations of doxorubicin in Luminal-A subtype of human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) and compare the results with effects on L929 fibroblast cell line. METHODS: Both cell lines were incubated with increasing doses

5. Diacetate Naphthoquinone Derivatives Tethered to 1,2,3-Triazoles: Synthesis and Cytotoxicity Evaluation in Caco-2 Cells
Acetylated compounds prepared from naphthoquinones have been reported as antitumoral prodrugs. Exploring the synthetic versatility of the naphthoquinone and triazolic nuclei, herein we report a simple and efficient synthetic route to prepare a series of sixteen prodrugs prototype of 1,2,3-triazoles-naphthoquinodoic acetyl derivatives. The compounds 10a-10h a

8. Antibacterial Profile in vitro and in vivo of New 1,4-Naphthoquinones Tethered to 1,2,3-1H-Triazoles Against the Planktonic Growth of Streptococcus mutans
The cariogenic processes are mainly caused by the bacterium Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and consist of the demineralization of the tooth that occurs when the acid production overcomes the natural repair or if a problem occurs in the last one. In this work, we performed the synthesis of twenty-one 1,4-naphthoquinones tethered to 1,2,3-1H-triazoles (8a-8k

9. CYP450 Metabolism of a Semisynthetic Naphthoquinone, an Anticancer Drug Candidate, by Human Liver Microsomes
CNFD (6b,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopenta[b]naphtho[2,1-d]furan-5,6(9aH)-dione) is a semisynthetic naphthoquinone derived from lawsone that has cytotoxic action in different tumor lines and anticancer activity in vivo. Therefore, this molecule is a relevant candidate for drug development, but there is still no information on its human metabolism and systemic eliminat

10. Promoting effects of 6-Gingerol on probiotic adhesion to colonic epithelial cells
Abstract The effects of 6-gingerol on adhesive ability of probiotics to colonic epithelial cells in vitro were explored. Two strains of probiotics were Lactophilus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum. NCM 460 cells (normal colonic epithelial cells) and Caco-2 cells (colon cancer cells) were used in this study. Effect of 6-gingerol (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30,

11. Agro-Industrial Waste Valorization: Transformation of Starch from Mango Kernel into Biocompatible, Thermoresponsive and High Swelling Nanogels
Mango industry processing disposes 40-60% of this fruit as residues, such as peels and kernels. The exploration of bioproducts from these industrial rejects can reduce environmental impact besides of producing high value-added materials. In this scenario, carboxymethyl starch nanoparticles were produced from mango (Mangifera indica L.) kernel starch. These n

12. Allyl Dibenzoylmethane Derivative: Antimelanoma Activity and Study of Its Molecular Mechanism of Interaction with DNA
In this study, we assessed the cytotoxic effect of 1,3-diphenyl-2-allyl-1,3-propanedione (DPAP) on B16F10 and Tm5 melanoma cells and investigated its interaction with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) using optical tweezers. The compound showed to be effective against B16F10 cells with selectivity index (SI) of 7.92 and interaction to the outer surface of the doub
