The present study aimed to design and synthesize functionalized 2,4-diamino-1,3,5-triazines, potential inhibitors involved in immune and inflammatory responses. A two-step synthesis method, initially using a microwave reactor for the preparation of reaction intermediates, allowed us to synthesize eleven 6-aryl-2,4-diamino-1,3,5-triazines 5a-k. The intermediates were biguanide derivatives 3 a-f which were synthesized under microwave irradiation for 10 min at 130 °C . The 2,4-diamino-1,3,5-triazin

Research conducted in recent years has significantly transformed our understanding of the role of the vascular endothelium in maintaining the overall homeostasis of the body. It has been revealed that the endothelium is responsible for synthesizing a wide range of biologically active substances that play a key role in numerous processes both in health and disease - such as hemodynamics, hemostasis, immunological responses, and regenerative processes. This extensive endocrine activity has led to

The objective of this study was to document the plants used in traditional cough treatment for children and to conduct a phytochemical study of the two most used plants. An ethnobotanical survey was conducted among traditional sellers in the markets of Bamako. A phytochemical screening based on classic color reaction and tube precipitation methods was performed. Aluminum trichloride was used to quantify flavonoids, whereas the Folin-Ciocalteu method was utilized to quantify total polyphenols. Th

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor symptoms such as tremor and rigidity, along with non-motor symptoms such as cognitive decline and depression. Current dopaminergic therapies offer symptomatic relief but fail to halt disease progression, underscoring the urgent need for novel, disease-modifying therapies . This review explores the potential of repurposed drugs from different therapeutic categories—including immunomodulatory, cardiomet

Hypothyroidism is a clinical Syndrome resulting from a deficiency of thyroid hormones, which leads to generalized slowing down of metabolic processes. In infants and children results in marked slowing of growth &development with mental retardation. Whereas in adults leading to slowed heart rate, diminished oxygen consumption & deposition of glycosaminoglycans in intracellular spaces particularly in skin & muscles, female is more prone to suffer from this disorder. The risk is multiplied with inc

This study aimed to assess the risk of hyperlactatemia (LA) in patients who received atorvastatin (ATV) treatment. For this, an observational and retrospective study using a case-crossover study design. The participants who received atorvastatin (10 - 80 mg) were included in the sample. The main variable in the study was the total number of treatment days for all the medications administered to each patient (PD). All PDs with lactate>4mmol/L were cases, while all PDs with lactate≤4mmol/L were co
