DESIGN AND MOLECULAR DOCKING STUDIES OF N1-CHLOROACETYL-7-SUBSTITUTED- 4-METHYL-1, 5-BENZODIAZEPINE-2-ONE DERIVATIVES

Molecular Docking is an effective and competent tool for in-silico screening. It is playing an important and ever-increasing role in rational drug design. The main application lies in this structure-based virtual screening is the identification of new active compounds towards a particular target protein. In present investigation, few N1-chloroacetyl-7-substituted- 4-methyl-1, 5-benzodiazepine-2-on...

COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF ANALGESIC ACTIVITY OF SSRI (FLUOXETINE) AND SNRI (DULOXETINE AND VENLAFAXINE) IN EXPERIMENTALLY INDUCED CHRONIC NEUROPATHIC PAIN MODEL

Objectives: To investigate and compare the analgesic effect of fluoxetine (FLU), duloxetine (DUL) and venlafaxine (VEN) in animal models of chronic pain. Methods: Chronic pain was induced in albino rats using spared nerve injury and vincristine. Rats were divided into Control group/ Normal Saline (NS5), DUL group, FLU group, and VEN group. In spared nerve injury, sural branch of sciatic nerve was ...

ASSESSING THE FLOATING DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM USING THE MODEL ANTI-DIABETIC DRUG GLIMEPIRIDE

Floating drug delivery systems can increase the gastric retention time by manufacturing the systems with a density less than the gastric contents of the stomach. This causes the system to float over the gastric contents in the stomach without affecting the gastric emptying rate for a prolonged period. Glimepiride was selected as a model drug to increase oral bioavailability and efficacy. Hydroxyp...
