RESUMO
The current study was conducted in the Department of Anatomy, Osmania Medical College, Koti, Hyderabad over a period of 1year. A total of 30 human pineal glands (16-males,11-females,3 excluded for post-mortem autolysis) from those bodies between the age groups of 1-80years were collected during the post-mortem study at the Mortuary of Osmania General Hospital, Koti, Hyderabad and were included in the study. Morphological parameters like weight and transverse diameter at the maximum width of the pineal glands were measured and then the pineal glands were processed for light microscopy. 4-5micron thick sections were cut and stained with H&E and Masson Trichrome for highlighting the connective tissue pattern of the pineal gland. Under light microscope, the capsular delineation, pattern of septation and lobulation, calcification, intracellular brown pigment, intraparenchymal inflammatory cells, fibrosis, gliosis and cystic changes in the pineal glands were observed in relation to age and gender.

The synthesis and characterization of new series of 1,4-benzodiazepine derivatives have been presented. The structures were confirmed by elemental analyses, IR spectral, (1)H NMR spectral and mass spectral data. All the compounds were screened for in vitro antimicrobial and anthelmintic activities. The antibacterial activity was tested against Staphylococcus aureus (Gram positive), Bacillus cereus (Gram positive), Escherichia coli (Gram negative) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram negative). The antifungal activity was tested against Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans. All the compounds showed considerable antimicrobial activity against the microorganism studied. The significant anthelmintic activity of all novel compounds was demonstrated against Pheretima posthuma. Based on the nature of substituent present, the structure-activity correlation of novel compounds was discussed.
