<P>Proteins deacetylation by Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) has been shown in various human chronic diseases like neurodegenerative diseases and cancer, and hence is an important therapeutic target. Since, the existing inhibitors have hydroxamate group, and are not HDAC6-selective, therefore, this study has designed to investigate non-hydroxamate HDAC6 inhibitors. Ligand-based pharmacophore was generated from 26 training set compounds of HDAC6 inhibitors. The statistical parameters of pharmacophore (Hypo1) included lowest total cost of 115.63, highest cost difference of 135.00, lowest RMSD of 0.70 and the highest correlation of 0.98. The pharmacophore was validated by Fischer's Randomization and Test Set validation, and used as screening tool for chemical databases. The screened compounds were filtered by fit value (> 10.00), estimated Inhibitory Concentration (IC50) (<0.459), Lipinski's Rule of Five and Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity (ADMET) Descriptors to identify drug-like compounds. Furthermore, the drug-like compounds were docked into the active site of HDAC6. The best docked compounds were selected having gold fitness score > 66.46 and chemscore < -28.31, and hydrogen bond interaction with catalytic active residues. Finally, three inhibitors having sulfamoyl group were selected by Molecular Dynamic (MD) simulation, which showed stable root mean square deviation (RMSD) (1.6-1.9 angstrom), lowest potential energy (< -6.3 x 10(5) kJ/mol), and hydrogen bonding with catalytic active residues of HDAC6.</P>

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Liquefaction of macroalgae was performed in a stirred autoclave reactor using supercritical ethanol (scEtOH) as a solvent. There was a sharp transition in ethanol consumption during macroalgae liquefaction in scEtOH when the temperature was increased from 350 to 400 °C. At 350 °C, a small amount of ethanol (6 wt%) reacted with intermediates, while at 400 °C, 18 wt% of the ethanol was consumed. Taking into account this increased consumption of ethanol at 400 °C, the bio-oil yield decreased from 79.2 to 53.9 wt%, energy recovery from 202.5% to 72.2%, and energy efficiency from 111.6% to 62.7%. The produced bio-oil had a molecular weight of 398 g mol<SUP>−1</SUP>, a HHV of 36.49 MJ kg<SUP>−1</SUP>, an O/C ratio of 0.12, and a H/C ratio of 1.58. To confirm the unique role of scEtOH in biomass liquefaction, subcritical water (subH<SUB>2</SUB>O) and supercritical water (scH<SUB>2</SUB>O)-based liquefactions were carried out and the results compared with those obtained for scEtOH-based liquefaction. GC-MS results from the bio-oil produced with scH<SUB>2</SUB>O revealed the percentage area of compounds containing an ethoxy group to be as low as 20%, while this value reached 62% when using scEtOH.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Supercritical ethanol not only acts as a solvent but also as a reagent. </LI> <LI> Ethanol consumption during reaction was calculated by GC-MS ethanol calibration. </LI> <LI> Bio-oil yield, ER and EE were re-calculated considering consumed amount of ethanol. </LI> <LI> Decrease in bio-oil yield, ER and EE when consumed ethanol was taken into account. </LI> </UL> </P>

Optimal Campaign Strategies in Fractional-Order Smoking Dynamics
Zeb, Anwar,Zaman, Gul,Jung, Il Hyo,Khan, Madad Verlag der Zeitschrift für Naturforschung 2014 Zeitschrift für Naturforschung. A, A journal Vol.69 No.5
<P>This paper deals with the optimal control problem in the giving up smoking model of fractional order. For the eradication of smoking in a community, we introduce three control variables in the form of education campaign, anti-smoking gum, and anti-nicotive drugs/medicine in the proposed fractional order model. We discuss the necessary conditions for the optimality of a general fractional optimal control problem whose fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. In order to do this, we minimize the number of potential and occasional smokers and maximize the number of ex-smokers. We use Pontryagin’s maximum principle to characterize the optimal levels of the three controls. The resulting optimality system is solved numerically by MATLAB.</P>

This paper describes the effects of thermally oxidized tallow on the serum lipids profile and radical scavenging activity (RSA) of the lipids extracted from the different tissues of the rabbits. Tallow was thermally oxidized at $130^{\circ}C$ for 9, 18, 27, 36 and 45 h respectively. Thermally oxidized tallow was fed to the local strain of Himalayan rabbits for one week. Results show that oxidation increases the formation of hydroperoxides and decrease the level of radical scavenging activity of the tallow. The rabbit serum lipids profile showed a dose dependent increase in triglyceride, total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol. However, no statistically significant increase was observed in the HDL-cholesterol with an increase of oxidation time. Serum glucose and rabbits body weight decrease significantly (p < 0.05) and was highly correlated with the serum lipids profile. The percent RSA of the lipids extracted from the liver, brain and muscles tissues showed a significant decrease with respect to 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 g/body weight as well as oxidation time. Data suggests that thermal oxidation and use of thermally oxidized beef tallow is harmful and therefore an alternative way of cooking should be used.

Purpose The present study aims to investigate the neuroprotective effects of carnosine-entrapped elastic liposomes (CARELs) against cerebral ischemia. Methods CAR-ELs were prepared by extrusion method using egg phosphatidylcholine (eggPC) as a phospholipid and Tween 80 (TW80) as an edge activator (eggPC:TW80 = 8:2, w/w). The prepared CAR-ELs were purified by centrifugal ultrafiltration followed by characterization for particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential and entrapment efficiency. The elasticity of CAR-ELs, the most distinct feature of elastic liposomes, was determined using a stainless steel pressure filter and compared with that of conventional liposomes. In vivo neuroprotective effects of CAR-ELs were evaluated in cerebral ischemia induced by permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) in rats. CAR-ELs (250 mg/kg of CAR) were intravenously administered 20 min before pMCAO and 6 h after pMCAO, respectively. The infarct volume in brain was measured by staining with 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride after 24 h of cerebral ischemia. Results CAR-ELs showed nanometric particle size near 100 nm and homogeneous distribution with polydispersity index below 0.1. The elasticity of CAR-ELs was 2-fold higher than that of conventional liposomes. The brain ischemia was successfully developed with pMCAO as indicated by highly infarcted hemisphere (~ 50%) in saline-treated rats. The pretreatment with CAR-ELs significantly reduced infarct volume (7.9%) compared with CAR solution (19.1%)- and saline (50.8%)-pretreated rats. CAR solution, however, showed better neuroprotective effects than CAR-ELs when administered 6 h after ischemia induction. Conclusion The pre-treatment with CAR-ELs could be promising nanocarrier-based neuroprotective therapeutics against ischemic stroke.

Background Cancer remains a major global health burden and existing therapeutic approaches face substantial challenges such as drug resistance, poor selectivity, heterogeneity, and the complex tumor microenvironment. Nanotechnology has evolved into a promising tool with huge potential for application in the field of medicine. Recently, inorganic nanoparticles (INPs) have been widely explored for cancer therapy because of their distinct tunable physicochemical properties, biocompatibility, and versatile preparation methods. In addition, surface functionalization of INPs has further improved therapeutics efficacy by modulating their features, such as poor aqueous solubility, in vivo stability, potential toxicity, enhanced cancer targeting, and reduced binding to healthy cells. Area covered In this review, we briefly highlight a few of the most commonly used INPs in cancer therapy, along with their basic features and fabrication methods. Strategies, commonly employed materials and reasons for surface functionalization of INPs have also been described. Furthermore, the latest drug delivery and therapeutic applications of surface-functionalized INPs in various cancers were extensively reviewed. This review concludes with a future outlook and a few limitations of surface-functionalized INPs that hinder their clinical application. Expert opinion The presented data undoubtedly prove the potential of surface-functionalized INPs to improve therapeutic efficacy, cellular uptake, and tumor growth inhibition of anti-tumor drugs, thereby minimizing their limitations in cancer therapy. However, functionalized INPs have a negligible presence in the market for cancer therapy despite their promising potential. Appropriate designing and clinically relevant testing may facilitate their clinical translation into safe and effective cancer therapy in the near future.

Background Controlled release and targeted delivery of the drug payload are the two most fascinating applications of nanoparticle-based systems explored in the recent past. The advantages of achieving control over drug release kinetics include prolonged therapeutic effects, reduced dosing frequency, and fewer plasma level fluctuations and side effects, whereas targeted delivery offers enhanced drug accumulation at the site of action and reduced off-target toxicity, thereby improving the management of chronic diseases. Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles (PLGA-NPs) hold tremendous promise for such applications because of their ability to modulate drug release, pharmacokinetics, the biodistribution profiles of drugs, and the surface functionalization for targeted delivery. Area covered This review primarily highlights the applications of PLGA-NPs based on the controlled release of therapeutics after oral, parenteral, pulmonary, ocular, intranasal, and dermal administration and tissue engineering. The potential of PLGA-NPs for targeted delivery to various diseases, such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and neurological disorders, has also been extensively reviewed. This review concludes with a description of the limitations of PLGA-NPs and the hurdles associated with their clinical application. Expert opinion PLGA-NPs stand out among other nanoparticles because of their excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. Although the presented data suggest that they are the major shareholders in controlled-release and targeted-delivery systems, no PLGA-NP formulation has reached clinics. Therefore, further insights into the rational design of PLGA-NPs and clinically relevant testing are required to narrow the gap between the bench and bedside realities.

Improved skin permeation of methotrexate via nanosized ultradeformable liposomes
Zeb, Alam,Qureshi, Omer Salman,Kim, Hyung-Seo,Cha, Ji-Hye,Kim, Hoo-Seong,Kim, Jin-Ki Dove Medical Press 2016 International journal of nanomedicine Vol.11 No.-
<P>The aim of this study is to investigate methotrexate-entrapped ultradeformable liposomes (MTX-UDLs) for potential transdermal application. MTX-UDLs were prepared by extrusion method with phosphatidylcholine as a bilayer matrix and sodium cholate or Tween 80 as an edge activator. The physicochemical properties of MTX-UDLs were determined in terms of particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, and entrapment efficiency. The deformability of MTX-UDLs was compared with that of methotrexate-entrapped conventional liposomes (MTX-CLs) using a steel pressure filter device. The skin permeation of MTX-UDLs was investigated using Franz diffusion cell, and the skin penetration depth of rhodamine 6G-entrapped UDLs was determined by confocal laser scanning microscopy. MTX-UDLs showed a narrow size distribution, with the particle size of ~100 nm. The deformability of MTX-UDLs was two to five times greater than that of MTX-CLs. The skin permeation of MTX-UDLs was significantly improved compared with MTX-CLs and free MTX solution. The optimized UDLs (phosphatidylcholine: Tween 80 =7:3, w/w) showed a higher fluorescence intensity than conventional liposomes at every increment of skin depth. Thus, the optimized UDLs could be promising nanocarriers for systemic delivery of MTX across skin.</P>

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>The application of Photovoltaic (PV) in the distributed generation system is acquiring more consideration with the developments in power electronics technology and global environmental concerns. Solar PV is playing a key role in consuming the solar energy for the generation of electric power. The use of solar PV is growing exponentially due to its clean, pollution-free, abundant, and inexhaustible nature. In grid-connected PV systems, significant attention is required in the design and operation of the inverter to achieve high efficiency for diverse power structures. The requirements for the grid-connected inverter include; low total harmonic distortion of the currents injected into the grid, maximum power point tracking, high efficiency, and controlled power injected into the grid. The performance of the inverters connected to the grid depends mainly on the control scheme applied. In this review, the global status of the PV market, classification of the PV system, configurations of the grid-connected PV inverter, classification of various inverter types, and topologies are discussed, described and presented in a schematic manner. A concise summary of the control methods for single- and three-phase inverters has also been presented. In addition, various controllers applied to grid-tied inverter are thoroughly reviewed and compared. Finally, the criteria for the selection of inverters and the future trends are comprehensively presented.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> The global PV market and classification of PV systems. </LI> <LI> Various inverter topologies presented in a schematic manner. </LI> <LI> Review of the control techniques for single- and three-phase inverters. </LI> <LI> Selection guide for choosing an appropriate inverter topology based on specific application. </LI> </UL> </P>
