Publisher and Date:(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 some cancer types the level of COX-2 enzyme is increased indicating that this enzyme could be a suitable target for cancer therapy. Based on these findings we have synthesized some new diflunisal thiosemicarbazides and 124-triazoles and tested them against androgen-independent ...

Publisher and Date:(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2019)Background: The main factor for the prolongation of the ulcer treatment in the gastrointestinal system would be Helicobacter pylori infection which can possibly lead to gastrointestinal cancer. Triple therapy is the treatment of choice by today's standards. However observed resistance among the bacterial strains can make the situation even worse. Therefore there is a need to discover new targeted antibacterial therapy in order to make success in the eradication of H. pylori infections. Methods: ...
