Synthesis, biological evaluation, and stability studies of raloxifene mono- and bis-sulfamates as dual-targeting agents.

All three possible sulfamate derivatives of the selective estrogen receptor modulator Raloxifene (bis-sulfamate 7 and two mono-sulfamates 8-9) were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of the clinical drug target steroid sulfatase (STS), both in cell-free and in cell-based assays, and also as estrogen receptor (ER) modulators. Bis-sulfamate 7 was the most potent STS inhibitor with an IC50 of 12.2 nM in a whole JEG3 cell-based assay, with the two mono-sulfamates significantly weaker. The estrogen receptor-modulating activities of 7-9 showed generally lower affinities compared to Raloxifene HCl, diethylstilbestrol and other known ligands, with mono-sulfamate 8 being the best ligand (Ki of 1.5 nM) for ERα binding, although 7 had a Ki of 13 nM and both showed desirable antagonist activity. The antiproliferative activities of the sulfamate derivatives against the T-47D breast cancer cell line showed 7 as most potent (GI50 = 7.12 µM), comparable to that of Raloxifene. Compound 7 also showed good antiproliferative potency in the NCI-60 cell line panel with a GI50 of 1.34 µM against MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. Stability testing of 7-9 showed that bis-sulfamate 7 hydrolyzed by desulfamoylation at a surprisingly rapid rate, initially leading selectively to 8 and finally to Raloxifene 3 without formation of 9. The mechanisms of these hydrolysis reactions could be extensively rationalized. Conversion of Raloxifene (3) into its bis-sulfamate (7) thus produced a promising drug lead with nanomolar dual activity as an STS inhibitor and ERα antagonist, as a potential candidate for treatment of estrogen-dependent breast cancer.

Next generation imidazothiazole and imidazooxazole derivatives as potential drugs against brain-eating amoebae.

Managing primary amoebic meningoencephalitis, induced by Naegleria fowleri poses a complex medical challenge. There is currently no specific anti-amoebic drug that has proven effectiveness against N. fowleri infection. Ongoing research endeavours are dedicated to uncovering innovative treatment strategies, including the utilization of drugs and immune modulators targeting Naegleria infection. In this study, we explored the potential of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole and imidazooxazole derivatives that incorporate sulfonate and sulfamate groups as agents with anti-amoebic properties against N. fowleri. We assessed several synthesized compounds (1f, 1m, 1q, 1s, and 1t) for their efficacy in eliminating amoebae, their impact on cytotoxicity, and their influence on the damage caused to human cerebral microvascular endothelial (HBEC-5i) cells when exposed to the N. fowleri (ATCC 30174) strain. The outcomes revealed that, among the five compounds under examination, 1m, 1q, and 1t demonstrated notable anti-parasitic effects against N. fowleri (P ≤ 0.05). Compound 1t exhibited the highest anti-parasitic activity, reducing N. fowleri population by 80%. Additionally, three compounds, 1m, 1q, and 1t, significantly mitigated the damage inflicted on host cells by N. fowleri. However, the results of cytotoxicity analysis indicated that while 1m and 1q had minimal cytotoxic effects on endothelial cells, compound 1t caused moderate cytotoxicity (34%). Consequently, we conclude that imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole and imidazooxazole derivatives containing sulfonate and sulfamate groups exhibit a marked capacity to eliminate amoebae viability while causing limited toxicity to human cells. In aggregate, these findings hold promise that could potentially evolve into novel therapeutic options for treating N. fowleri infection.

An overview of the latest outlook of sulfamate derivatives as anticancer candidates (2020-2024).

Considering the emergence of new anticancer drugs, in this review we emphasized and highlighted the recent reports and advances related to sulfamate-incorporating compounds with potential anticancer activity during the last 5 years (2020-2024). Additionally, we discussed their structure-activity relationship, clarifying their potent bioactivity as anticancer agents. Sulfamate derivatives hold promise as effective therapeutic candidates against cancer. By targeting biological targets associated with the development of cancer, such as steroid sulfatases (STS), carbonic anhydrases (CAs), microtubules, NEDD8-activating enzyme, small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMO)-activating enzyme (SAE), cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1), and so on, this can furnish small molecules as anticancer lead candidates serving the drug discovery field. For example, compound 2, an STS inhibitor, demonstrated superior activity compared to its reference, irosustat, by fivefold. In addition, compound 21, an SAE, is under phase I clinical trials. Continued research into sulfamate derivatives holds potential for the development of novel therapeutic agents targeting various diseases.

Anti-proliferative activity of RIHMS-Qi-23 against MCF-7 breast cancer cell line is through inhibition of cell proliferation and senescence but not inhibition of targeted kinases.

BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy globally, and is considered a major cause of cancer-related death. Tremendous effort is exerted to identify an optimal anticancer drug with limited side effects. The quinoline derivative RIMHS-Qi-23 had a wide-spectrum antiproliferative activity against various types of cancer cells. METHODS: In the current study, the effect of RIMHS-Qi-23 was tested on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line to evaluate its anticancer efficacy in comparison to the reference compound doxorubicin. RESULTS: Our data suggest an anti-proliferative effect of RIMHS-Qi-23 on the MCF-7 cell line with superior potency and selectivity compared to doxorubicin. Our mechanistic study suggested that the anti-proliferative effect of RIMHS-Qi-23 against MCF-7 cell line is not through targeted kinase inhibition but through other molecular machinery targeting cell proliferation and senescence such as cyclophlin A, p62, and LC3. CONCLUSION: RIMHS-Qi-23 is exerting an anti-proliferative effect that is more potent and selective than doxorubicin.

Stereodivergent Desymmetrization of Phenols En Route to Modular Access to Densely Functionalized Quinazoline and Oxazine Scaffolds.

The de novo assembly of stereochemically and skeletally diverse scaffolds is a powerful tool for the discovery of novel chemotypes. Hence, the development of modular, step- and atom-economic synthetic methods to access stereochemically and skeletally diverse compound collection is particularly important. Herein, we show a metal-free, stereodivergent build/couple/pair strategy that allows access to a unique collection of benzo[5,6][1,4]oxazino[4,3-a]quinazoline, quinolino[1,2-a]quinazoline and benzo[b]benzo [4,5]imidazo[1,2-d][1,4]oxazine scaffolds with complete diastereocontrol and wide distribution of molecular architectures. This metal-free process proceeds via desymmetrization of phenol derivatives. The cascade unites Mannich with aza-Michael addition reactions, providing expeditious entries to diverse classes of molecular shapes in a single operation.

Divergent Protocol for the Synthesis of Isoquinolino[1,2-b]quinazolinone and Isoquinolino[2,1-a]quinazolinone Derivatives.

The development of robust and step-economic strategies to access structurally diverse drug-like compound collections remains a challenge. A distinct structural option that constitutes the core scaffold of many biologically significant molecules is the quinazolinone ring system. Several members of this family of privileged substructures have gained attention due to their diverse biological activities. In this context, the development of an efficient strategy for their access is needed. Herein, we report a divergent metal-free operation to access a diverse collection of C6-substituted pyrrolo[4',3',2':4,5]isoquinolino[1,2-b]quinazolin-8(6H)-one and pyrrolo[4',3',2':4,5]isoquinolino[2,1-a]quinazolin-12(6H)-one architectures. The described cascade unites Friedel-Crafts and aza-Michael addition reactions. This operationally simple protocol enables a rapid access to these scaffolds and is compatible with a wide scope of starting materials. In addition, the cascade features a promising approach for the design of unique compound libraries for drug design and discovery programs.

Anti-amoebic activity of a series of benzofuran/benzothiophene derivatives against Acanthamoeba castellanii belonging to the T4 genotype.

AIMS: To determine the anti-amoebic activity of benzofuran/benzothiophene-possessing compounds against Acanthamoeba castellanii of the T4 genotype. METHOD AND RESULTS: A series of benzofuran/benzothiophene-possessing compounds were tested for their anti-amoebic activities, in particular, to block encystation and excystation processes in amoebae. Cytotoxicity of the compounds were evaluated using lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assays. The amoebicidal assay results revealed significant anti-amoebic effects against A. castellanii. Compounds 1p and 1e showed the highest amoebicidal activity, eliminating 68% and 64% of the amoebae, respectively. These compounds remarkably repressed both the encystation and excystation processes in A. castellanii. Furthermore, the selected compounds presented minimal cytotoxic properties against human cells, as well as considerably abridged amoeba-mediated cytopathogenicity when compared to the amoebae alone. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings show that benzofuran/benzothiophene derivatives depict potent anti-amoebic activities; thus these compounds should be used as promising and novel agents in the rationale development of therapeutic strategies against Acanthamoeba infections.

LC-MS/MS approach for simultaneous assessment of hyoscine N-butyl bromide and ketoprofen in biological fluids and pharmaceuticals.

The mixture of hyoscine N-butyl bromide (HBB) and ketoprofen (KTP) is commonly used for the handling of abdominal spasms and pain relief. There are two challenges that restrict the simultaneous assessment of HBB and KTP in biological fluids and pharmaceuticals. The first issue is the difficulty of elution of HBB and the second one is the presence of KTP as a racemic mixture in all pharmaceutical formulations, which obscures its appearance as a single peak. An ultrasensitive and highly efficient liquid chromatography-mass/mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method is designed and validated for the first concurrent assessment of HBB and KTP in spiked human serum and urine, and pharmaceutical formulations. The estimated linearity ranges for HBB and KTP were respectively, 0.5-500 and 0.05-500 ng/ml, with excellent correlation coefficients. Validation results showed that the value of relative standard deviations were <2% for HBB and KTP. The mean extraction recoveries for HBB and KTP were, respectively, 91.04 and 97.83% in Spasmofen® ampoules; 95.89 and 97.00% in spiked serum; and 97.31 and 95.63% in spiked urine. The presented innovative chromatographic approach was utilized for the measurement of trace amounts of coexisting pharmaceuticals in pharmacokinetics studies and routine therapeutic medication monitoring.

The anti-amoebic potential of carboxamide derivatives containing sulfonyl or sulfamoyl moieties against brain-eating Naegleria fowleri.

Naegleria fowleri is a free-living thermophilic flagellate amoeba that causes a rare but life-threatening infection called primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), with a very high fatality rate. Herein, the anti-amoebic potential of carboxamide derivatives possessing sulfonyl or sulfamoyl moiety was assessed against pathogenic N. fowleri using amoebicidal, cytotoxicity and cytopathogenicity assays. The results from amoebicidal experiments showed that derivatives dramatically reduced N. fowleri viability. Selected derivatives demonstrated IC50 values at lower concentrations; 1j showed IC50 at 24.65 µM, while 1k inhibited 50% amoebae growth at 23.31 µM. Compounds with significant amoebicidal effects demonstrated limited cytotoxicity against human cerebral microvascular endothelial cells. Finally, some derivatives mitigated N. fowleri-instigated host cell death. Ultimately, this study demonstrated that 1j and 1k exhibited potent anti-amoebic activity and ought to be looked at in future studies for the development of therapeutic anti-amoebic pharmaceuticals. Further investigation is required to determine the clinical relevance of our findings.

Efficacy of pentasodium diethylenetriamine pentaacetate in ameliorating anosmia post COVID-19.

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 has been frequently demonstrated to be associated with anosmia. Calcium cations are a mainstay in the transmission of odor. One of their documented effects is feedback inhibition. Thus, it has been advocated that reducing the free intranasal calcium cations using topical chelators such as pentasodium diethylenetriamine pentaacetate (DTPA) could lead to restoration of the olfactory function in patients with post-COVID-19 anosmia. METHODOLOGY: This is a randomized controlled trial that investigated the effect of DTPA on post-COVID-19 anosmia. A total of 66 adult patients who had confirmed COVID-19 with associated anosmia that continued beyond three months of being negative for SARS-CoV-2 infection. The included patients were randomly allocated to the control group that received 0.9 % sodium chloride-containing nasal spray or the interventional group that received 2 % DTPA-containing nasal spray at a 1:1 ratio. Before treatment and 30 days post-treatment, the patients' olfactory function was evaluated using Sniffin' Sticks, and quantitative estimation of the calcium cations in the nasal mucus was done using a carbon paste ion-selective electrode test. RESULTS: Patients in the DTPA-treated group significantly improved compared to the control group in recovery from functional anosmia to hyposmia. Additionally, they showed a significant post-treatment reduction in the calcium concentration compared to the control group. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed the efficacy of DTPA in treating post-COVID-19 anosmia.

Quercetin: Putative effects on the function of cryopreserved sperms in domestic animals.

Quercetin is one of the most used antioxidant flavonoids and largely exists in many fruits and vegetables because of its capability to scavenge the free reactive oxygen species (ROSs) by repressing lipid peroxy radical fusion, metal ion chelating through enzyme inhibition, and adopting the repair mechanisms. It also exhibits various biological actions, including antioxidative, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities. Furthermore, it contributes well to sustaining the endogenous cellular antioxidant defence system. The process of cryopreservation is associated with increased oxidative stress, and some steps are potential sources of ROSs, including the method of semen collection, handling, cryopreservation culture media, and thawing, which result in impaired sperm function. Several antioxidants have been proposed to counteract the harmful impact of ROS during semen cryopreservation. The antioxidant capability of quercetin has been verified in different animal species for providing valuable defence to sperm during the cryopreservation process. The beneficial properties of quercetin on various parameters of fresh and post-thaw sperm in different species are clarified in this review. More in-depth investigations are required to clarify quercetin's mechanism of action in different animal species.

Nano-Enriched Self-Powered Wireless Body Area Network for Sustainable Health Monitoring Services.

Advances in nanotechnology have enabled the creation of novel materials with specific electrical and physical characteristics. This leads to a significant development in the industry of electronics that can be applied in various fields. In this paper, we propose a fabrication of nanotechnology-based materials that can be used to design stretchy piezoelectric nanofibers for energy harvesting to power connected bio-nanosensors in a Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN). The bio-nanosensors are powered based on harvested energy from mechanical movements of the body, specifically the arms, joints, and heartbeats. A suite of these nano-enriched bio-nanosensors can be used to form microgrids for a self-powered wireless body area network (SpWBAN), which can be used in various sustainable health monitoring services. A system model for an SpWBAN with an energy harvesting-based medium access control protocol is presented and analyzed based on fabricated nanofibers with specific characteristics. The simulation results show that the SpWBAN outperforms and has a longer lifetime than contemporary WBAN system designs without self-powering capability.

Blue Light-Driven [4+2]-Cycloaddition: Diastereoselective Synthesis of Chromeno[4,3-b]quinoline and Chromeno[4,3-b][1,8]naphthyridine Scaffolds.

A one-pot, metal-free, light-driven [4+2]-cycloaddition reaction is described by accessing a diverse collection of chromeno[4,3-b]quinoline and chromeno[4,3-b][1,8]naphthyridine scaffolds in a diastereoselective manner. This process delivered stereoisomers, which were challenging to produce by an inverse-demand Diels-Alder reaction. The tetracyclic products were provided in good yields, promoted by rose bengal and blue light in a single operation. The developed protocol proceeded efficiently without the need for expensive photosensitizers such as Ir or Ru complexes. The cascade is modular and step-economic, and the substrate scope is wide. Polycyclic architectures can be assembled from readily available aniline, aminoazine, indole, and salicylaldehyde derivatives.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of a new series of pyrazole derivatives: Discovery of potent and selective JNK3 kinase inhibitors.

The design, synthesis, and biological activities of a new series of pyrazole derivatives are reported. The target compounds 1a-1w were initially investigated against NCI-60 cancer cell lines. Compounds 1f, 1h, 1k, and 1v exerted the highest anti-proliferative activity over the studied panel of cancer cell lines. Compound 1f showed the most potent activity, and it is more potent than sorafenib in 29 cancer cell lines of different types and more potent than SP600125 against almost all the tested cancer cell lines. It also exerted sub-micromolar IC50 values (0.54-0.98 µM) against nine cell lines. Moreover, the 23 target compounds were tested against Hep3B and HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, of which compounds 1b, 1c, and 1h showed the strongest anti-proliferative activity. The most potent anticancer compounds (1b, 1c, 1f, and 1h) demonstrated a high selectivity towards cancer cells vis-à-vis normal cells. Compounds1f and 1h induced apoptosis and mild necrosis upon testing against RPMI-8226 leukemia cells. Kinase profiling of this series led to the discovery of two potent and selective JNK3 inhibitors, compounds 1c and 1f with an IC50 values of 99.0 and 97.4 nM, respectively. Both compounds showed a good inhibitory effect against JNK3 kinase in the whole-cell NanoBRET assay. This finding was further supported through molecular modeling studies with the JNK3 binding site. Moreover, compounds 1c and 1f demonstrated a very weak activity against CYP 2D6, CYP 3A4, and hERG ion channels.

Discovery of urease inhibitory effect of sulfamate derivatives: Biological and computational studies.

The discovery of life-changing medicines continues to be the driving force for the rapid exploration and expansion of chemical space, enabling access to innovative small molecules of medicinal importance. These small molecules remain the backbone for modern drug discovery. In this context, the treatment of ureolytic bacterial infections inspires the identification of potent and effective inhibitors of urease, a promising and highly needed target for H. pylori eradication. The present study explores the evaluation of sulfamate derivatives for the inhibition of urease enzyme. The tested compounds showed remarkable inhibitory effect and high level of potency. Compound 1q emerged as the lead inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.062 ± 0.001 µM, ∼360-fold more potent than thiourea (IC50 = 22.31 ± 0.031 µM). The assessment of various contributing factors towards the inhibition profile allowed for the establishment of diverse structure-activity relationships. Kinetics studies revealed the competitive mode of inhibition of compound 1q while molecular modeling analysis identified various crucial binding interactions with ARG609, ARG439, HIS519, HIS492, HIS593, ALA440, and ALA636 in the active pocket of the enzyme. Finally, the calculated pharmacokinetic properties suggest a promising profile of our potent sulfamate-based urease inhibitors.

Environmental impact of the reported chromatographic methods for the determination of the first FDA-Approved therapy for COVID-19 Patients, Remdesivir: A comparative study.

Remdesivir (REM) is considered the first therapeutic option approved by US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for clinical care in case of hospitalized patients suffering in COVID-19 epidemic. In the presented multilateral comparative search, four eco friendlessness approaches -National Environmental Methods Index (NEMI), Eco-Scale Assessment (ESA), Green Analytical Procedure Index (GAPI), and Analytical Greenness metric (AGREE) are tested to assess 16 analytical chromatographic procedures reported for the analysis of the commonly used antiviral drug; Remdesivir (REM). The values of testing more than one approach when estimating the eco-friendly characters for analytical methods are illustrated in this study. On the light of the outcomes, ESA and AGREE approaches are recommended as they are easily applied and digitally presented. Furthermore, GAPI is also a reliable tool in terms of comprehensiveness for the whole analytical procedures, from sampling till the final assessment. NEMI is the easiest and fastest greenness evaluation tool; however, the information it provides is particularly of limited scope and sometimes inaccurate. To ensure greenness of chromatographic analytical methods, there must be clear planning beforehand, to reduce chemical hazards sent to environment. Additionally, it is highly recommended in method validation protocols to consider the greenness of a given analytical procedure before releasing to routine use. The LC-MS/MS analysis for the active metabolite of REM (Nuc) reported by Avataneo et al. and Du et al. proved to be the best bio-analytical methods regarding the environmental aspects depending on the GAPI and AGREE tools. However, the HPLC method for REM analysis in intravenous solution reported by Jitta et al. proved to be the greenest analytical method for determination of REM in the pharmaceutical dosage forms according to the ESA, GAPI, and AGREE tools.

Mechanistic study of the antibacterial potential of the prenylated flavonoid auriculasin against Escherichia coli.

Bacterial resistance is spreading in an alarming manner, outpacing the rate of development of new antibacterial agents and surging the need for effective alternatives. Prenylated flavonoids are a promising class of natural antibiotics with reported activity against a wide range of resistant pathogens. Here, a large library of natural flavonoids (1718 structures) was virtually screened for potential candidates inhibiting the B-subunit of gyrase (Gyr-B). Twenty-eight candidates, predominated by prenylated flavonoids, appeared as promising hits. Six of them were selected for further in vitro antibacterial and Gyr-B enzyme inhibitory activities. Auriculasin is presented as the most potent antibacterial candidate, with a MIC ranging from 2 to 4 µg/ml against two clinically isolated multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli strains. Mechanistic antibacterial analysis revealed auriculasin inhibitory activity towards the Gyr-B enzyme on the micromolar scale (IC50 = 0.38 ± 0.15 µM). Gyr-B interaction was further detailed by conducting an isothermal titration calorimetric experiment, which revealed a competitive inhibition with a high affinity for the Gyr-B active site, achieved mostly through enthalpic interactions (ΔGbinding = -10.69 kcal/mol). Molecular modeling and physics-based simulations demonstrated the molecule's manner of fitting inside the Gyr-B active site, indicating a very potential nucleus for the future generation of more potent derivatives. To conclude, prenylated flavonoids are interesting antibacterial candidates with anti-Gyr-B mechanism of action that can be obtained from a plant-derived flavonoid.

Facile Conversion of the Quinone-Semicarbazone Chromophore of Naftazone into a Fluorescent Quinol-Semicarbazide: Kinetic Study and Analysis of Naftazone in Pharmaceuticals and Human Serum.

Naftazone is a quinone-semi carbazone drug that possesses a strong orange color, and hence it was usually analyzed colorimetrically or by HPLC-UV. However, these methods are not sensitive enough to determine naftazone in biological samples. Naftazone lacks intrinsic fluorescence and does not possess easily derivatizable functional groups. In this contribution, we introduced the first spectrofluorimetric method for naftazone assay through reduction-elicited fluorogenic derivatization through the reduction of its quinone-semicarbazone moiety to the corresponding quinol-semicarbazide derivative by potassium borohydride as a reduction probe. The solvent-dependent fluorescence of the reaction product was studied in various protic and aprotic solvents. Eventually, the fluorescence of the reduced naftazone was measured in 2-propanol at λemission of 350 nm after excitation at λecxitation of 295 nm. The relative fluorescence intensity was linearly correlated to the drug concentration (r = 0.9995) from 10.0 to 500 ng/mL with high sensitivity, where the lower detection limit was 2.9 ng/mL. Hence, the method was effectively applied for naftazone tablets quality control with a mean %recovery of 100.3 ± 1.5, and the results agreed with those of the comparison HPLC-UV method. Furthermore, a new salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) method was established for naftazone extraction from human serum, followed by its determination using the developed reduction-based fluorogenic method. The developed SALLE method showed excellent recovery for naftazone from human serum (92.3-106.5%) with good precision (RSD ≤ 6.8%). Additionally, the reaction of naftazone with potassium borohydride was kinetically monitored, and it was found to follow pseudo-first-order kinetics with an activation energy of 43.8 kcal/mol. The developed method's greenness was approved using three green analytical chemistry metrics.

Quantitative Analysis of Abamectin, Albendazole, Levamisole HCl and Closantel in Q-DRENCH Oral Suspension Using a Stability-Indicating HPLC-DAD Method.

Combination therapy of many anthelmintic drugs has been used to achieve fast animal curing. Q-DRENCH is an oral suspension, containing four different active drugs against GIT worms in sheep, commonly used in Australia and New Zeeland. The anti-parasitic drugs are Albendazole (ALB), Levamisole HCl (LEV), Abamectin (ABA), and Closantel (CLO). The main purpose of this study is to present a new simultaneous stability-indicting HPLC-DAD method for the analysis of the four drugs. The recommended liquid system was 1 mL of Triethylamine/L water, adjusting the pH to 3.5 by glacial acetic acid: acetonitrile solvent (20:80, v/v). Isocratic elusion achieved the desired results of separation at a 2 mL/min flow rate using Zorbax C-18 as a stationary phase. Detection was performed at 210 nm. The linearity ranges were 15.15 to 93.75 µg/mL for ALB, 25 to 150 µg/mL for LEV, 30 to 150 µg/mL for ABA, and 11.7 to 140.63 µg/mL for CLO. Moreover, the final greenness score was 0.62 using the AGREE tool, which reflects the eco-friendly nature. Moreover, the four drugs were determined successfully in the presence of their stressful degradation products. This work presents the first chromatographic method for simultaneous analysis for Q-DRENCH oral suspension drugs in the presence of their stressful degradation products.

Pyrazole has been recognized as a pharmacologically important privileged scaffold whose derivatives produce almost all types of pharmacological activities and have attracted much attention in the last decades. Of the various pyrazole derivatives reported as potential therapeutic agents, this article focuses on pyrazole-based kinase inhibitors. Pyrazole-possessing kinase inhibitors play a crucial role in various disease areas, especially in many cancer types such as lymphoma, breast cancer, melanoma, cervical cancer, and others in addition to inflammation and neurodegenerative disorders. In this article, we reviewed the structural and biological characteristics of the pyrazole derivatives recently reported as kinase inhibitors and classified them according to their target kinases in a chronological order. We reviewed the reports including pyrazole derivatives as kinase inhibitors published during the past decade (2011-2020).
