Urolithin A, a Diet‐Derived Gut Microbial Metabolite Against Pulmonary Hypertension Identified via Molecular Docking, Molecular Dynamics and Surface Plasmon Resonance

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Urolithin A, a gut microbial metabolite, binds TNF to suppress proliferation, inflammation, and oxidative stress, offering a promising microbe‐derived therapeutic avenue for pulmonary hypertension. ABSTRACT Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a complex and multifactorial disease that poses a significant clinical challenge.

Systemic anti‐cancer therapy associated with the occurrence of peripheral neurotoxicity and, specifically, peripheral neuropathy

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? While the effectiveness of systemic anticancer therapy is well documented, it commonly causes severe toxicity. This study of the 467 systemic anticancer therapy agents currently approved globally for clinical and/or research purposes found that peripheral neurotoxicity is associated with 45% of classical chemotherapies, 21% of targeted ...

Beyond “you are what you eat”: Unlocking gut microbiota‐mediated biotransformation of dietary phytochemicals

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The “efficacy paradox” of phytochemicals, low bioavailability yet significant health benefits, is associated with gut microbiota, which biotransforms dietary precursors into bioactive metabolites, enabling systemic effects. Thus, health outcomes of diet depend not just on intake “the rainbow”, but on gut microbial metabolism, redefining “you are what ...

Evaluation of DNA/Chromosome Integrity and Cell Death in Human Metabolically Noncompetent and Competent Cells Exposed to N′‐(3,5‐Difluorobenzylidene)Pyridine‐4‐Carbohydrazide

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The N‐acylhydrazone scaffold is recognized as a privileged structure for the design of bioactive substances with increasing applications in medicinal chemistry research. Ensuring the safety of newly developed molecules is a critical step for both human health and environmental protection. Accordingly, this study aimed to evaluate the cytotoxic

Synthesis and Characterization of Juglone‐Derived cu (II), Mn (II) and Zn (II) Complexes and Investigation of Their Cytotoxic Activities Against Lung and Colon Cancer Cells in Vitro and in Silico

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Three new Zn (II), Cu (II) and Mn (II) complexes have been synthesized from 5‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone (HNQ). Elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility, UV–Vis, IR and Mass spectrometry have all been used to explore the structural characterization of these compounds.

Melanoma Cells Exposed to Clomiphene Citrate Respond With Cell Cycle Arrest and Reduced Invasiveness

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological studies have suggested that clomiphene citrate (CC) exposure may increase the risk of malignant melanoma, but mechanisms are unknown. We investigated the effects of CC on melanoma cell line A375. Cells were treated with CC at 2, 20, 200, and 2000 ng/mL, followed by assessment of cell viability and metabolism, cell cycle ...

New Hydrazone Derivatives Featuring Isatin and Piperazine Moieties: Synthesis, Cytotoxicity Evaluation, and Molecular Modeling Studies

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, ten novel compounds (IPH1–IPH10) were designed by integrating three pharmacophores (isatin, piperazine, and hydrazone) commonly found in the molecular structures of anticancer agents. The target molecules were obtained by the reaction of in‐house prepared 4‐(4‐(pyridin/pyrimidin‐2‐yl)piperazin‐1‐yl)benzohydrazide with various ...
