Vasculitis pathogenesis is caused by three possible mechanisms, including autoantibodies anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, activation of T lymphocyte cells, and immune complexes.Various pathogens stimulate innate and adaptive immune systems, modulating the expression of pro-inflammatory cells, cytokines, and the complement system, that have a role in vasculitis progression. Ivermectin is an anti-parasitic drug, effective in treating parasitic infections. Thirty-three male albino rats were used for the experiment and divided into five groups. The disease was induced in all groups except group A (control), rats received the vehicles used in dissolving drug and chemicals. Group B (induction group) received Ovalbumin and Lipopolysaccharide. Group C, group D, and group E (Ivermectin groups) received 0.5mg/kg, 1 mg/kg and 1.5 mg/kg of Ivermectin, respectively, for seven days. All doses were injected by intraperitoneal route. Results of histopathological evaluation of lung sections of Ivermectin groups show a decrease in the inflammation severity, alveolar destruction, and vascular congestion and dilatation, with the absence of: hemorrhage, thrombi, and fibrinoid wall necrosis in comparison to the disease group. Therefore, the Ivermectin drug might have a protective effect against vasculitis.","PeriodicalId":7406,"journal":{"name":"Al Mustansiriyah Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences","volume":"25 4","pages":"515-524"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ajps.uomustansiriyah.edu.iq/index.php/AJPS/article/download/1220/839","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147331475","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}

Due to its physico-chemical limitations such as low aqueous solubility and low bioavailability,\u0000we developed curcumin organogel as a topical delivery system to overcome those limitations. The12-hydroxystearic acid (12-HSA) is well known as a low-molecular-weight organogelators (LMOGs) capable of gelling an organic liquid phase. Different concentrations of (12-HSA) in triacetin with 50 mg CUR were gelled and applied for various examinations: tabletop rheology, oil binding capacity, pH measurement, spreadability, in vitro drug release, antibacterial activity and oscillatory rheology studies. The results revealed that the organogels transition temperatures from solid to liquid were greater than the normal body temperature, this helped the organogels keep their shape; they had good spreadability,and the organogels pH levels were within the safe range for the skin . In vitro release data showed that 4% 12HSA+5%CUR +TA (4TA) gave us 100% release after 6 hours. The selected 4TA illustrated good viscoelastic properties in the amplitude sweep test and a frequency-independent as seen in the frequency sweep test.

Our objective was to assess their binding affinities with histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) by conducting a docking study, comparing the results with the reference ligand, suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA).\u0000Docking scores were measured in terms of ΔG (Kcal/mol), and the recorded scores for compounds 2A-D were found to be higher than that of SAHA, with values of 87.36, 80.46, 79.42, and 74.14, respectively. Notably, compound 2A, a dipeptide consisting of L-tryptophyl-L-tyrosine linked to a hydroxamic acid moiety, exhibited the highest docking score of 87.36. This finding suggests that compound 2A may possess the most potent HDAC8 inhibitory activity among the other designed compounds. Furthermore, we utilized the SwissADME server to predict the physicochemical properties and additional ADME parameters for the designed compounds. The analysis revealed that all investigated compounds exhibited a high potential for passive oral absorption and demonstrated no penetration into the blood-brain barrier. Compound 2A, 2B, and 2D exhibited one Lipinski's rule violation each, whereas Compound 2C demonstrated no such violations in all parameters. Additionally, compounds 2A and 2C exhibited potential as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates. SAHA did not exhibit inhibition of any of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes used in this study, whereas compounds 2B, 2C and 2D displayed possible inhibitory activities.
