A quantitative structural activity relationship (QSAR) investigation was carried out on 50 Molecules of NET Inhibitors to investigate their inhibitory potencies against norepinephrine transporter as novel agents for anti-psychotic disorders. The molecules were optimized by employing Density functional theory (DFT) with basis set of B3LYP/6-31G*. The genetic function Algorithm (GFA) approach was used to generate a highly predictive and statistically significant model with good correlation coefficient R2 Train = 0.952, Cross validated coefficient Q2cv = 0.870 and adjusted squared correlation coefficient R2adj = 0.898. The predictability and accuracy of the developed model was evaluated through external validation using test set molecules, Y-randomization and applicability domain techniques. The results of Molecular docking simulation by using two neurotransmitter transporters PDB ID 2A65 (resolution = 1.65 A ) and PDB ID 4M48 (resolution = 2.955 A) showed that two of the ligands (compound numbers 12 and 44) having higher binding affinity were observed to inhibit the targets by forming hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with amino acids of the two receptors respectively. The results of this study are envisaged to provide very important new insights into the molecular basis and structural requirements that would help in designing more potent and more specific therapeutic anti-psychotic agents.","PeriodicalId":17402,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Turkish Chemical Society, Section A: Chemistry","volume":"7 1","pages":"179-196"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46297963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the study, gamma dose values were measured at 25 locations that best represent the area. These measurements were made by keeping the portable Eberline Smart Portable (ESP) scintillator detector constant at a height of 1 meter above ground level. A SPA-6 plastic scintillation sensor isconnected to the instrument tip to perform the measurement. These devices are direct measurement of external radiation. As the measurements were carried out in the open area,0.2 occupancy factor was used in the calculations. In the studies, the highest effective dose value was calculated as 0.3 mSv at the location 2 (Asos Kadirga Bay). The lowest effective dose value is 0.054 mSV at the 15th location (Avcilar Village Mountain slope) and the average annual gamma dose is 0.14 mSv. For the study area, when the lifetime risk of cancer was calculated using gamma effective dose values, it was determined at the highest 2 locations (1,2x10-3) and the lowest at the 15locations (0,21x10-3). The average lifetime cancer risk value (2,39x10 -4 ) of Turkey, were compared with values calculated in this study. In this comparison, the values of locations 9 and 15 were lower and the values of other locations were higher.","PeriodicalId":17402,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Turkish Chemical Society, Section A: Chemistry","volume":"7 1","pages":"207-214"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48394509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The determination was carried out by high performance liquid chromatography, and the isolation done by thin layer chromatography plates, then identified by mass spectrum. Results showed that the rutin content in the ethanolic extract 78.79% was higher than the aqueous one 61.90%, by using ultrasonic extraction procedure, the quercetin content by hydrolysis process was more satisfaction in the ethanolic extract 81.00% than the aqueous one 72.53%. Acidic hydrolysis process destroyed some of the isoquercitrin in the extracts, the detection of isoquercitrin was done qualitatively by noticing the mass spectrum and the photo diode array spectrum. Rutin and quercetin were successfully isolated, the relative peak areas for isolated rutin and quercetin were 99.80%, 96.46%, respectively.
