Impact of C18 Epimerization of Indole- and Pyrazole-Fused 18β-Glycyrrhetinic Acid Derivatives on PTP1B and TCPTP Inhibitory Activity: Synthesis, In Vitro, and In Silico Studies. [PDF]
The indole derivative (FC‐114) and the N‐phenylpyrazole (FC‐122) of glycyrrhetinic acid are both potent inhibitors of the Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B, with IC50 values of 0.48 μM and 1.15 μM, respectively. However, their activity decreases by up to four times when the 18β‐H position is epimerized to 18α‐H or when the carbonyl group at the C11 ...

Subchronic toxicity study in rats of two new ethyl-carbamates with ixodicidal activity. [PDF]
Female and male Wistar rats were used to determine the subchronic oral toxicities of two new ethyl‐carbamates with ixodicidal activities (ethyl‐4‐bromphenyl‐carbamate and ethyl‐4‐chlorphenyl‐carbamate). The evaluated carbamates were administered in the drinking water (12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg/day) for 90 days.

Assessment of acute oral and dermal toxicity of 2 ethyl-carbamates with activity against Rhipicephalus microplus in rats. [PDF]
The acute oral and dermal toxicity of two new ethyl‐carbamates (ethyl‐4‐bromophenyl‐carbamate and ethyl‐4‐chlorophenyl‐carbamate) with ixodicide activity was determined in rats. The oral LD50 of each carbamate was 300 to 2000 mg/kg, and the dermal LD50 of each carbamate was >5000 mg/kg.
