1. Synthesis and Evaluation of Antibacterial Activity of 1,2,3-Triazole and Ether Derivatives of Paeonol
Multi-drug-resistant bacteria (MDR) are the cause of different infections and diseases that have affected humanity for a long time, and have been an emerging global health problem that has led to increased morbidity and mortality. The growing emergence of MDR bacteria has underlined the need for development and discovery of new antibacterial compounds. In th

2. Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Betulin Derivatives with Aromatic Hydrazone Side Chain as Potential Anticancer Agents
A series of novel betulin-28-hydrazone derivatives (7a-7o) were synthesized. All compounds were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxicities in four human carcinoma cells (HepG2, MCF-7, HCT-116 and A549). Among them, compound 7l displayed the most potent cytotoxicity with an IC50 (concentration of the tested compound that inhibits 50% of cell growth) value of

3. Novel Insecticides from Alkylated and Acylated Derivatives of Thymol and Eugenol for the Control of Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)
Plutella xylostella cause considerable harm to the production of broccoli, Chinese cabbage, cabbage and cauliflower. The control of P. xylostella is mainly performed using commercial insecticides, which have even led to the emergence of resistant populations. Two easily available natural products found in different plants essential oil, thymol and eugenol, s

4. What is new in non-chromatographic flavonoid purification?
Flavonoids are metabolites occurring in all plant tissues and present different biological activities. They occur in a mixture of similar polarity with laborious separation and purification processes, usually furnishing low yields. Semi-preparative chromatographic methods are universally employed procedures for their isolation. This paper discusses the state

5. In vitro Antioxidant and Anticholinesterase Activities of Ouratea fieldingiana (Gardner) Eng. Leaf Extract and Correlation with Its Phenolics Profile with an in silico Study in Relation to Alzheimer’s Disease
Ouratea fieldingiana is a native medicinal plant from Northeastern Brazil and many biological properties are due to the phenolic constituents. The objective of this work was performing the characterization of O. fieldingiana leaf constituents to correlate with antioxidant and anticholinesterase activities by in vitro and in silico studies and thus contribute

6. Recent dengue virus infection: epidemiological survey on risk factors associated with infection in a medium-sized city in Mato Grosso
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Dengue is considered to be the most important arbovirus worldwide, with important complications that increase its lethality. In Brazil, an endemic country, the disease reaches significant incidence levels, with occurrences of serious cases and high costs of hospitalizations for its treatment. OBJECTIVE: To analyze risk factors among in

7. Mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome: focus on the current treatment scenario
Abstract Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative disorders, characterized by infiltration of the skin by mature malignant T cells. Mycosis fungoides is the most common form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, accounting for more than 60% of cases. Mycosis fungoides in the early-stage is generally an indolent disease, progressing

8. Study of the CuII Affinity by Three Chelating Agents of Biological Interest: TPEN, TRIEN and Et2DTC
Copper is an important micronutrient, and it is present in some protein structures, as well as participate in several important biological processes. Due to its importance, some ligands are used and studied like carriers of copper in the biological systems. This work has investigated the affinity of CuII by three ligands of biological interest: N, N, N, N’

9. Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Benzo[f]indole-4,9-diones N-Linked to Carbohydrate Chains as New Type of Antitumor Agents
In this work, we report the synthesis of three series of carbohydrate-based benzo[f]indole-4,9-diones and amino-1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives and evaluated their cytotoxic activity against eight human cancer cell lines. Several compounds showed a promising cytotoxic activity toward the tumor cell lines (half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) < 10.0 μ

10. Follow-up and outcome of the twelve-year experience in adult patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia
ABSTRACT Acute promyelocytic leukemia is a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia, characterized by the presence of neoplastic promyelocytes, due to the reciprocal balanced translocation between chromosomes 15 and 17. Currently, with the use of agents that act directly on this molecular change, such as all-trans retinoic acid and arsenic trioxide, APL has shifted

11. A IMPORTÂNCIA DAS CUMARINAS PARA A QUÍMICA MEDICINAL E O DESENVOLVIMENTO DE COMPOSTOS BIOATIVOS NOS ÚLTIMOS ANOS
Coumarins are natural products characterized as 2H-chromen-2-one, according to IUPAC nomenclature, largely distributed in plants, as well as, in species of fungi and bacteria. Nowadays, many synthetic procedures allow the discovery of coumarins with expanded chemical space. The ability to exert non-covalent interactions with many enzymes and receptors in liv

12. Spitz nevus and infliximab: association or coincidence?,
Abstract Biological therapies, including anti-TNF agents, are important in the treatment of various chronic inflammatory diseases, including psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. The increased use of these drugs translates into an increasing awareness of its adverse effects, which include malignancy. In this paper, we describe the ca
