Disulfiram (tetra ethyl thiuram disulfide, or DSF), is a disulfide derivative of N, N-diethyl dithiocarbamate (DEDTC). DSF is an FDA approved drug for the treatment of alcoholism, and at low doses continues to be a useful treatment option for those suffering from the disease. DSF is a member of the dithiocarbamate family, and is thus a metal chelator. Many cancer cells have elevated levels of copper, a metal to which DSF can bind. Thus, DSF is of great interest in cancer research as an antitumor agent, as studies suggest the DSF-copper complex may be cytotoxic to cancer cells. This could allow for targeting of some types of cancer cells with elevated copper levels by DSF.

S relationship is a key to the understanding of functioning of bioactive molecules, as well as a prerequisite for predictive analysis and design of novel molecules with desirable bioactive properties. The authors group had analysed various in silico methodologies (Ganguli and Sharma, Computer Society of India Communication, January 2016, pp 26—28) and the use of open source software packages. Use of open source software and databases permit molecular modeling and predictive design of molecules and of the active site in the protein by homolgy. Stability of a protein molecule in vivo determines the effectiveness of its function under physilogical conditions. Pathological conditions can be traced to malfunctioning of the proteins due the alteration in primary structure by mutation or by alteration in the post-translational modifications affecting functioning of the molecule. This review catalogues few of the better studied protein structures and describe their characteristic peculiarities with the hope that one would be able to develop predictive heuristics.

Glycyrrhiza glabra is a traditional herb which grows in various parts of the world, which have been used for the treatment of various diseases like gastric ulcer. Many reports have been published about the biogenesis of silver nanoparticles using Glycyrrhiza glabra, but green synthesized silver nanoparticles from Glycyrrhiza glabra has not yet been investigate the in-vitro anti-ulcer activity against H. pylori. In the present study was aimed to investigate the in-vitro anti-ulcer activity of green-synthesised silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from Glycyrrhiza glabra root extract. The green synthesized of silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Visible Spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), TEM, and FT-IR Analysis. UV-VIS Spectral analysis of the green synthesised nanoparticles was observed a sharp peak at 404 nm indicates the formation of silver nanoparticles. We successfully synthesized uniformly dispersed silver nanoparticles with a uniform size and shape in the range of 7 nm to 45 nm with an average size of 19 nm. The crystalline natures of Ag nanoparticles were confirmed from the XRD analysis. FTIR analysis was carried out to identify the possible biomolecules in Glycyrrhiza glabra root responsible for capping leading to efficient stabilization of the silver nanoparticles. The in-vitro antiulcer activities of synthesized silver nanoparticles were studied by Agar disc diffusion method and Micro broth dilution method. In Agar disc diffusion method showed the activity against H. pylori at the concentration of 500 μg/ml, which exhibit the most potent concentration of silver nanoparticles of gastric Cytoprotective anti-ulcer. In micro broth dilution method, The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of silver nanoparticles by visual examination was found to be 250 μg/ml.

Current study emphasis on development of an improved formulation of NFX HCl tablets that must be acceptable with reasonable limits of standards required for tablet. Central premise of research conducted was to evaluate and compare two available forms of Norfloxacin raw material, NFX base and another it’s acidic salt NFX HCl in tablet formulation and establish the effect of acidic and basic form of Norfloxacin. NFX base has been widely used in tablet formulation while Norfloxacin HCl is newly available form in market. After tablet preparation from each form, physical and chemical characterization was performed. Tablets formulated with Norfloxacin base complies with all specifications of physicochemical analysis whereas Norfloxacin HCl containing tablets exhibited twisted results in physical testing, increased hardness and disintegration. Thus an improved formulation was developed that could not interfere with physical as well as chemical characteristics. Result reveals that improved formulation with NFX HCl complies with standard of QC assessment.

Inhibition of α-glucosiase and the associated reduction of glucose absorption is an attractive approach for decreasing postprandial hyperglycemia and for the discovery of potent antidiabetic agents. One of the most important sources of potential α-glucosiase inhibitors represents the class of polyphenols. This paper aims to evaluate previous herbal polyphenol-rich extracts plan on the management of diabetes mellitus, to address their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Polyphenol-rich extracts from thirteen widely used traditionally anti-diabetic plants in Asia and Mediterranean regions were evaluated for their potential α-glucosidaseinhibitory activity. Among these evaluated plants, 10 were much stronger than that of acarbose standard. Punica granatum manifested the highest inhibitory activity with IC50 at 3.59 ± 0.11 μg/mL, followed by Psidium guajava with IC50 at 8.08 ± 0.10 μg/mL and Cinnamomum zeylanicum with IC50 at 9.87.08 ± 0.14 μg/mLA. A high correlation (r=0.65, p<0.001) was observed between α-glucosidase inhibition and total phenolic content of all plants. Punica granatum, P. guajava, C. zeylanicum and Ziziphus spina-christi had also the highest total phenolic content. Extracts for the above studied plant species may potentially replace acarbose in its current clinical use in improving post-prandial glycaemic control in type 2 diabetics. As a result, these polyphenol-rich extracts potentially offer a complementary approach to develop functional food and potential antidiabetic agents.

Objectives: The main objective of the current study was to present a further example which showed that a nontraditional mathematical modeling method can be advantageously used for the development of mathematical models in pharmacokinetics. An additional objective was to motivate researchers working in the field of pharmacokinetics to use a modeling method based on the theory of dynamic systems in their research work. Method: The current study is a companion piece of the earlier study by Kramer et al. Therefore the data published in the study cited here were used. As stated above, an advanced modeling method based on the theory of dynamic systems was employed. Conclusions: All mathematical models developed, successfully described the data of all volunteers investigated in the previous study by Kramer et al. and in the current study. The modeling method used in the current study is universal, comprehensive, and flexible. Therefore, it can be used to developed mathematical models not only in pharmacokinetics but also in several other scientific and practical fields.

Q based DOE approach was explored to study the effect of various factors influencing the optimisation of HPLC method for the simultaneous estimation of the four drugs viz. Ofloxacin (OFX), Ornidazole (ORN), Terbinafine Hydrochloride (TBH) and Clobetasol Propionate (CBP) in bulk drug and cream formulation. A full factorial design was employed to study the factors such as pH of the mobile phase, initial percentage of organic content for gradient elution (%BI) and gradient time (tG). The optimal conditions obtained after applying the principles of QbD with good system suitability parameters for all four drugs were found to be at pH 2.6, %BI as 24% of acetonitrile and gradient time of 4 min. The optimal conditions were found to be in a good agreement with the experimental results. The HPLC method thus developed was validated using ICH guidelines and was applied for the assay of cream formulation. The percentage recoveries were found to be 99.74±0.39 for OFX, 98.72±0.71 for ORN, 98.19±0.23 for TBH and 99.05±0.76 for CBP. The HPLC method was successfully applied to study the in vitro permeability of cream formulation in rat skin using Franz diffusion cell.
