THE ROLE OF TRANSIENT RECEPTOR POTENTIAL VANILLOID 1 RECEPTOR IN DESIPRAMINE INDUCED ANALGESIC EFFECT IN DIABETIC MICE
Hyperalgesia is one of the debilitating complications of diabetes. The thermal allodynia and hyperalgesia in diabetic mice may be due to the hyperactivity of C-fiber in the spinal cord. Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) present in spinal cord and activation of C-fibre may involve in hyperalgesia in diabetic mice. Desipramine is one of the tricyclic antidepressants, effective in...

IMMOBILIZATION OF TANNIN ACYL HYDROLASE FROM ASPERGILLUS NIGER
Tannin acyl hydrolase, commonly referred to as tannase (E.C. 3.1.1.20), an inducible extra-cellular enzyme produced by a number of animals, plants and microbes. In this investigation, tannase production under solid-state fermentation by using Aspergillus niger and the waste residue of cashew husk was used as substrate for obtaining the desired fermented product. After termination of fermentation g...

SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF CLINICAL TRIALS AND PROSPECTIVE COHORTS: FOLLOW UP METHODS IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC MYELOID LEUKEMIA TREATED WITH DASATINIB
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a malignancy of hematopoietic stem cells associated with a t(9;22) translocation that forms the Philadelphia chromosome and creates a novel fusion gene, BCR-ABL. For those who are resistant or intolerant to imatinib, second-generation tirosino-kinase inhibitor, as dasatinib, has been shown to be efficacious in all phases of the disease. Once dasatinib is taken ora...

SYNTHESIS AND PHARMACOLOGICAL ACTIVITY EVALUATION OF OXADIAZOLES CONTAINING SUBSTITUTED DIHYDROPYRIMIDINONE AND CHLOROQUINOLINE MOITIES
In the present paper, synthesis of new series of 1,3,4- oxadiazole derivatives incorporating substituted dihydropyrimidinone and chloroquinoline moieties 4(a-j) has been reported. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR and Mass spectroscopy. The compounds were screened for their in vivo anti-inflammatory activity by the carrageenan induced rat paw edema method and in vitr...

ROSMARINIC ACID ENHANCES CISPLATIN CYTOTOXICITY IN HEPG2 CELL LINE AND ATTENUATES ITS NEPHROTOXICITY IN MICE
The present study aimed to investigate the anticancer effect of rosmarinic acid (RA), both alone and in combination with cisplatin (cis). Also, the potential nephroprotective effects of RA against cis-induced nephrotoxicity in mice and the possible mechanisms underlying this protection were explored. Treatment of HepG2 cells with RA produced a significant decline in cellular proliferation. RA indu...
