Synthesis of 7-Substituted Fluoroquinolone Derivatives Contain- ing Triazolidine Dione Moiety and In Vitro Evaluation of Their Cytotoxic Effects
Journal Title: Journal of Reports in Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
A series of fluoroquinolone derivatives holding triazolidindione moieties have been synthesized and proved to be cytotoxic agents in vitro particularly against cancer cell lines (SKNMC, MCF7, A2780-CP, SW48, A549, KB, HT-29, HepG2). The cytotoxic activity was assessed using MTT colorimetric assay. Our compounds had less cytotoxicity than doxorubicin in all studied cell lines.
Kinetic of Mushroom Tyrosinase Inhibition by Benzaldehyde Derivatives
Polyphenol oxidase (PPO), also known as tyrosinase (EC 1.14.18.1), is a copper-containing enzyme widely distributed in microorganisms, animals, and plants. This enzyme is responsible not only for browning in plants but a...

The development and discovery of new anticancer agents is one of the main goals in medicinal chemistry. The conventional anticancer drugs are concomitant with high incidence of unpleasant side effects like severe gastroi...
Design of Intelligent Polymer of Gelatin-Pnipaam under Gamma Radiation for Cellular Applications
Thermo-sensitive polymers were prepared by graft copolymerization of gelatin with N-Isopropylacrylamide via gamma radiation. Characterization of polymers such as DSC analysis, swelling in different ratios and cell assays...
Isatin-Based Anticonvulsant Agents: Synthesis and Antiseizure Evaluation in Mice
Based on the positive background of CNS activity of isatin analogs, a new series of isatin-based anticonvulsant derivatives (3a-3m) were designed and synthesized. According to the pharmacophoric necessities of anticonvul...
Assay of Pyrantel Pamoate Using Iron (Iii) Chloride and three Complexing Agents by Spectrophotometry
Three rapid, simple, moderately sensitive and selective spectropho-tometric methods are described for the determination of pyrantel pamoate (PYP) in bulk drug and in its pharmaceutical formulations. The methods are based...
