Fractal Dimensions of kappa-Carrageenan Gels during Gelation and Swelling
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
A photon scattering technique for research on the sol-gel and gel-sol transitions in kappa-carrageenan-water systems with various carrageenan contents (CC) was utilized for characterizing the fractal dimensions during ...
The neural gamma(2)alpha(1)beta(2)alpha(1)beta(2) gamma amino butyric acid ion channel receptor: structural analysis of the effects of the ivermectin molecule and disulfide bridges
(Springer, 2018)
While similar to 30% of the human genome encodes membrane proteins only a handful of structures of membrane proteins have been resolved to high resolution. Here we studied the structure of a member of the Cys-loop ligand ...
Carboxylic acid derivatives display potential selectivity for human histone deacetylase 6: Structure-based virtual screening molecular docking and dynamics simulation studies
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
Human histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) has been shown to play a major role in oncogenic cell transformation via deacetylation of alpha-tubulin making it a viable target of anticancer drug design and development. The crystal ...
Synthesis Molecular Docking and Anticancer Activity of Diflunisal Derivatives as Cyclooxygenase Enzyme Inhibitors
(MDPI, 2018)
Cyclooxygenase enzymes play a vital role in inflammatory pathways in the human body. Apart from their relation with inflammation the additional involvement of COX-2 enzyme with cancer activity was recently discovered. In ...
Fractal Features and Structural Morphological Optical Characteristics of Sol-Gel Derived Silica Nanoparticled Thin Films
(Polish Acad Sciences Inst Physics, 2018)
Nanostructured silica films using a simple and effective sol-gel spin coating technique were synthesized and the influence of ammonia/sol ratios on the particle size and thickness of this film was investigated. In addition ...
Identification of potential isoform-selective histone deacetylase inhibitors for cancer therapy: a combined approach of structure-based virtual screening ADMET prediction and molecular dynamics simulation assay
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) have gained increased attention as targets for anticancer drug design and development. HDAC inhibitors have proven to be effective for reversing the malignant phenotype in HDAC-dependent cancer ...
Electrical and optical percolations in PMMA/GNP composite films
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018)
Effects of graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) addition on the electrical conductivity and optical absorbance of poly(methyl methacrylate)/graphene nanoplatelet (PMMA/GNP) composite films were studied. Optical absorbance and two ...
Optical energy band gap of PAAm-GO composites
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
Graphene oxide (GO) can be used as an electron acceptor for polymers. The generation of the exciton in such materials is intimately related to the optical band gap. Polyacrylamide (PAAm) - graphene oxide (GO) composites ...
Temperature Effect on the Elasticity of Acrylamide-n-Isopropylacrylamide Copolymers
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
Acrylamide (AAm) - N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) copolymers were prepared via free radical crosslinking copolymerization with various weight percentages (wt%) of AAm and NIPA. The temperature dependence of the compressive ...
Synthesis anticancer activity and molecular modeling of etodolac-thioether derivatives as potent methionine aminopeptidase (type II) inhibitors
(Wiley, 2018)
A series of (RS)-1-{[5-(substituted)sulfanyl-4-substituted-4H-124-triazole-3-yl]methyl}-18-diethyl-1349-tetrahydropyrano[34-b]indoles (5a-v) were designed and synthesized using a five-step synthetic protocol that involves ...
