No single step remedy is available to treat AD, so the present study aimed to improve the drugability and minimize the abnormal behavioral and biochemical activities in streptozotocin (STZ) induced AD experimental Wistar rats. In particular, we explored the utilization of methacrylated gelatin (GelMA), which is a biopolymeric hydrogel that mimics the natural tissue environment. The synthesized biopolymeric gel contained the drug galantamine (Gal). Investigations were conducted to evaluate the behavioral activities of STZ-induced AD experimental rats under STZ ​+ ​GelMA ​+ ​Gal treatment. The experimental groups comprised the control and STZ, STZ ​+ ​GelMA, STZ ​+ ​Gal, and STZ ​+ ​GelMA ​+ ​Gal (10 ​mg/kg) treated rats. Intracerebroventricular STZ ensures cognitive decline in terms of an increase in the escape latency period, with a decrease in the spontaneous alteration of behavioral activities. Our results indicated decrease Aβ aggregation in the hydrogel-based drug treatment group and significant decreases in the levels of acetylcholinesterase and lipid peroxidation (<em>p</em> ​&lt; ​0.001). In addition, the glutathione and superoxide dismutase activities appeared to be improved in the STZ ​+ ​GelMA ​+ ​Gal group compared with the other treatment groups. Furthermore, histopathological and immunohistochemical experiments showed that the GelMA ​+ ​Gal treated AD rats exhibited significantly improved behavioral and biochemical activities compared with the STZ treated AD rats. Therefore, STZ ​+ ​GelMA ​+ ​Gal administration from the pre-plaque stage may have a potential clinical application in the prevention of AD. Thus, we conclude that hydrogel-based Gal drugs are efficient at decreasing Aβ aggregation and improving the neuroinflammatory process, antioxidant activity, and neuronal growth.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":10877,"journal":{"name":"Current Research in Pharmacology and Drug Discovery","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100100"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590257122000207/pdfft?md5=df1ec666f8a8dc260e899bccd6ff055a&pid=1-s2.0-S2590257122000207-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45652675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aromatic heterocyclic scaffold, which resembles various protein structures, has received attention from organic and medicinal chemists. Exploration of indole derivatives in drug discovery has rapidly yielded a vast array of biologically active compounds with broad therapeutic potential. Nature is the major source of indole scaffolds, but various classical and advanced synthesis methods for indoles have also been reported. One-pot synthesis is widely considered an efficient approach in synthetic organic chemistry and has been used to synthesize some indole compounds. The rapid emergence of drug-resistant tuberculosis is a major challenge to be addressed. Identifying novel targets and drug candidates for tuberculosis is therefore crucial. Researchers have extensively explored indole derivatives as potential anti-tubercular agents or drugs. Indole scaffolds containing the novel non-covalent (decaprenylphosphoryl-β-D-ribose2′-epimerase) DprE1 inhibitor 1,4-azaindole is currently in clinical trials to treat <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</em>. In addition, DG167 indazole sulfonamide with potent anti-tubercular activity is undergoing early-stage development in preclinical studies. Indole bearing cationic amphiphiles with high chemical diversity have been reported to depolarize and disrupt the mycobacterial membrane. Some indole-based compounds have potential inhibitory activities against distinct anti-tubercular targets, including the inhibition of cell wall synthesis, replication, transcription, and translation, as summarized in the graphical abstract.

This study was aimed to assess the effect microcystin (MC-LR) on histopathology of liver in mice and a preventive measure by using aqueous extract of <em>Inonotus obliquus</em> (IOAE).

The results of the study showed that MC-LR drastically reduced the body weight of mice which were restored close to the range of control by IOAE treatment. MC-LR exposed mice showed 1.9, 1.7 and 2.2-fold increase in the levels of SGOT, SGPT and LDH which were restored by IOAE treatment as compared to control (one-fold).
