ABSTRACT This study investigated the flavonoid compounds and their biological activities in methanol extracts obtained from root, stem, leaf, and flower parts of Amaranthus retroflexus L. Flavonoids in the extracts were characterized for the first time by liquid chromatography–highresolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS), and a total of eight flavonoid ...

Should the non‐canonical pathway of nitric oxide generation be targeted in hypertensive pregnancies?
Abstract Hypertension in pregnancy is prevalent, affecting around 10% of pregnancies worldwide, and significantly increases the risk of adverse outcomes for both mothers and their babies. Current treatment strategies for pregnant women with hypertension are limited, and new approaches for the management of hypertension in pregnancy are urgently needed.

Short-term mutagenicity test by using IRAP molecular marker in rice grown under herbicide treatment
Rice is an economically important plant as well as a model organism. The rice genome consists of 35% retrotransposons. Although most of the retrotransposons are inactivated through evolutionary processes, they can be activated under various biotic and ...

Antiprotozoal Activity of Highly Substituted Pyrazole and Pyrimidine Derivatives
Based on previously identified antimalarial agents, a series of highly substituted pyrazole and pyrimidines derivatives has been synthesized and tested for antiplasmodial and antileishmanial activity. Selected derivatives show promising antiplasmodial effect with a predicted favorable pharmacokinetic profile.

Mutagenicity tests on propiverine hydrochloride.
1. The reverse mutation test was carried out on propiverine hydrochloride (P-4) at dose range of 5-500 micrograms/plate use Salmonella typhimurium strains, TA100, TA98, TA1535 and TA1537, and Escherichia coli strain WP2uvrA. As compared with solvent-treated control, no significant increases were observed in the number of revertant colonies in all ...

A series of 42 homoisoflavones were synthesized and evaluated against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Three derivatives showed potent inhibition of Mtb strains. Evaluation in infected macrophages revealed promising intracellular activity, where one derivative featuring a nitrofuranyl and piperidine group emerges as the most promising.
