Highly Polymorphic Materials and Dissolution Behaviour: The Peculiar Case of Rifaximin

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2022
Rifaximin is a locally acting antibiotic practically insoluble in water. It presents several crystal phases characterized by different degrees of hydration. The aim of this work is to investigate the dissolution behaviour of rifaximin α, β, and amorphous

miR-140-5p Attenuates Hypoxia-Induced Breast Cancer Progression by Targeting Nrf2/HO-1 Axis in a Keap1-Independent Mechanism

open access: yesCells, 2021
Hypoxia and oxidative stress significantly contribute to breast cancer (BC) progression. Although hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (Hif-1α) is considered a key effector of the cellular response to hypoxia, nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2 (Nrf2), a

Cross-linking between cysteine and lysine, tryptophan or tyrosine in peptides and proteins treated with hypochlorous acid and other reactive halogens

open access: yesRedox Biochemistry and Chemistry, 2023
Cysteine residues are the most favored targets for oxidation by hypochlorous acid and other reactive halogen species. The end-products of cysteine oxidation are usually considered to be reversibly formed disulfides and the more highly oxidized sulfinic ...

Glycols in the Synthesis of Zinc-Anilato Coordination Polymers

open access: yesCrystals, 2022
We report the synthesis, structural investigation, and thermal behavior for three zinc-based 1D-coordination polymers with 3,6-di-tert-butyl-2,5-dihydroxy-p-benzoquinone, which were synthesized in the presence of different glycols.

A Chemometrics-driven Strategy for the Bioactivity Evaluation of Complex Multicomponent Systems and the Effective Selection of Bioactivity-predictive Chemical Combinations

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Although understanding their chemical composition is vital for accurately predicting the bioactivity of multicomponent drugs, nutraceuticals, and foods, no analytical approach exists to easily predict the bioactivity of multicomponent systems from ...
