Biological Characterization of One Oxadiazole Derivative (5(4‐Hydroxyphenyl)‐2‐(N‐Phenyl Amino)‐1,3,4‐Oxadiazole): In Vitro, In Silico, and Network Pharmacological Approaches

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

5(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-2-(N-Phenyl amino)-1,3,4-Oxadiazole (Hppo) can considered as a versatile agent in designing novel pharmaceuticals. ABSTRACT Oxadiazole compounds are of great interest because they have a range of biological activities ranging from antioxidants to anticancer agents. Against this background, we wanted to demonstrate the antioxidant, enzyme inhibitory, and anticancer effects of 5(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(N-phenylamino)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (Hppo).

Edwin Cohn and the Harvard Blood Factory

Codon

Today we launch Issue 05 of Asimov Press. Read our full Editors’ Note and preview upcoming articles on our website. Thanks for reading! Edwin Cohn, a temperamental and entrepreneurial protein chemist working at Harvard University in the early 1900s, is perhaps one of the most underrated translational scientists of all time. In 1940, with the likelihood of America’s involvement in World War II steadily rising, the U.S. military approached Cohn about developing medical products from bl

Dexmedetomidine Inhibits Ferroptosis by Regulating the SRY‐Box Transcription Factor 9/Divalent Metal Transporter‐1 Axis to Alleviate Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

Chemical Biology and Drug Design

Dex decreased SOX9 expression and then reduced the transcriptional activation of DMT1, ameliorating ferroptosis to improve cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. ABSTRACT Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is pathologically associated with ferroptosis. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) exerts neuroprotective activity after cerebral IRI. Our work focused on probing the pharmacologic effect of Dex on ferroptosis during cerebral IRI and the mechanisms involved.
