THIS PRESENTATION ABOUT ANTIMALARIAL DRUGS DETAILING THE COMPLETE INFORMATION ABOUT THE DRUGS USED WITH ITS MECHANISM OF ACTION, STRUCTURAL ACTIVITY AND DOSES.
This document summarizes several classes of anticancer drugs, including taxanes like paclitaxel and docetaxel, and podophyllotoxins like etoposide and teniposide. It notes the limitations of paclitaxel including its poor solubility and limited supply, and how docetaxel was developed to address these issues.

Nanotechnology essentially restructures molecules to make materials lighter, stronger, more penetrating or absorbant, among many innovative qualities. In cancer research, it offers a unique opportunity to study and interact with normal and cancer cells in real time, at the molecular and cellular scales, and during the various stages of the cancer process. For cancer researchers, a special interest lies in ligand-targeted therapeutic nanoparticles (TNP), which are expected to selectively deliver drugs and especially cytotoxic agents specifically to tumor cells and enhance intracellular drug accumulation. Targeting can be achieved by various mechanisms. For example, nanoparticles with numerous targeting ligands can provide multi-valent binding to the surface of tumor cells with high receptor density (as opposed to low receptor density on normal cells) or nanoparticle agents can enhance permeability and retention (EPR) effect to exit blood vessels in the tumor, to target surface receptors on tumor cells, and to enter tumor cells by endocytosis before releasing their drug payloads.
In this presentation we shall look at nanotechnology in drug development with a focus on anticancers and the advantages of nanoparticles as therapeutic platform technology. Approved nanotech based drugs and their clinical trials will be discussed. Two specific clinical trial case studies will be focused on along at some length with a mention of some ongoing clinical trials of nanotherapeutics. We shall also take a look at the future direction of nanotechnology based therapeutics.

This document describes the discovery of new potent histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors containing a pyrimidyl-5-hydroxamic acid structure. A series of these compounds were prepared and tested for HDAC inhibitory activity and antiproliferative effects on cancer cells. The most potent compound contained an amino-2-pyrimidinyl linker and a pyridinyl moiety, inhibiting HDAC activity with an IC50 below 100 nM and reducing cancer cell proliferation in the low micromolar range. Replacing structural elements like the pyrimidinyl ring or changing the heterocyclic ring size generally resulted in lower enzymatic or antiproliferative potency. These results identify amino-2-py
This document evaluates a new chemotype of tubulin modulators that bind to the vinca domain. It aims to characterize the biological activity, determine the biological target, and study the structure-activity relationships of a molecule and six derivatives. The conclusions are that the compounds are antimitotic drugs that bind tubulin in the vinca domain with micromolar affinity, causing tubulin to oligomerize into helical structures. Two pi-pi stacks between the compounds and beta-tubulin contribute critically to ligand binding. Binding of one compound favors a straightened tubulin structure that may facilitate tubulin association compared to vinblastine. There is an inverse relationship between the size and polarity of an inward-facing group and the

Bedaquiline is a new drug approved to treat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). However, it has some challenges including cardiotoxicity and hepatotoxicity likely due to its highly lipophilic structure. Researchers have worked to develop analogues of bedaquiline with reduced lipophilicity to minimize these toxicities. One study developed a 6-cyano analogue that showed significantly decreased lipophilicity while maintaining similar antibacterial activity. Other studies substituted the naphthalene unit of bedaquiline's structure with different heterocycles. Optimizing the balance of lipophilicity, basicity, and other structural properties may help address the toxicity issues and make bedaquiline a better treatment for MDR-

This document discusses fluid management in intensive care patients. It notes that fluids are drugs that require appropriate dosing, timing, and de-escalation. Inappropriate fluid therapy can lead to hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, acute kidney injury, and increased mortality. The key factors in empiric fluid therapy are considering patient risk factors for fluid overload and targeting fluids specifically for resuscitation, maintenance, or replacement needs rather than focusing solely on hemodynamic parameters. Fluid removal should begin when shock is resolved to avoid complications from fluid overload.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17Celine George
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.
