In vitro cytotoxic activity of novel protoflavone analogs – selectivity towards a multidrug resistant cancer cell line.

BACKGROUND:
Protoapigenone (PA), a natural flavonoid possessing an unusual p-quinol moiety on its B ring, is a prospective novel lead compound against cancer currently in development, together with WYC0209, a potent synthetic PA analog. Structure activity relationships (SAR) concerning different 1′-O-alkyl side-chains were also studied on two sets of derivatives.

Inhibitors of bacterial efflux pumps that also inhibit efflux pumps of cancer cells.

  • Autores: Amaral L, Armada A, Handzlik J, Kiec-Kononowicz K, Martins A, Molnar J, Spengler G
  • Ano de Publicação: 2012
  • Journal: Anticancer Research

Bacteria and cancer cells frequently increase their resistance to chemotherapeutics as a consequence of therapy. Whenever studied, refractory response to chemotherapy is due to the over-expression of efflux pumps that render the bacterium or cancer cell resistant not only to the agent used for therapy, but to many, if not all other agents as well.

Direct modification of bioactive phenothiazines by exposure to laser radiation.

  • Autores: Amaral L, Andrei IR, Boni M, Fanning S, Martins A, Militaru A, Molnar J, Nastasa V, Pascu A, Pascu ML, Smarandache A, Staicu A, Viveiros M

Whereas exposure of combinations of a phenothiazine and bacterium to incoherent UV increases the activity of the phenothiazine, exposure of the phenothiazine alone does not yield an increase of its activity. Because the laser beam energy is greater than that produced by the incoherent UV sources, exposure of phenothiazines to specific lasers may yield molecules with altered activities over that of the unexposed parent.

Ethidium bromide efflux by Salmonella: modulation by metabolic energy, pH, ions and phenothiazines

  • Autores: Amaral L, Cerca P, Couto I, Fanning S, Machado L, Martins A, Pagès JM, Spengler G, Viveiros M
  • Ano de Publicação: 2011

The main efflux pump of Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis, which obtains its energy for the extrusion of noxious agents from the proton-motive force, was studied with the aid of an ethidium bromide (EtBr) semi-automated method under conditions that define the role of metabolic energy, ions and pH in the extrusion of the universal substrate EtBr.

Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major nosocomial bacterium for which prevention and control measures consist mainly of the application of biocides with antiseptic and disinfectant activity.

The advent of new therapeutic approaches targeting env and the search for efficient anti-HIV-1 vaccines make it necessary to identify the number of recombinant forms using genomic regions that were previously not frequently sequenced.

Bacterial and protozoal agents of feline vector-borne diseases in domestic and stray cats from southern Portugal

  • Autores: Bastos F, Campino L, Cardoso L, Coimbra M, Maia C, Martins A, Nunes M, Pinto P, Ramos C, Vieira ML
  • Ano de Publicação: 2014
  • Journal: Parasites & Vectors
  • Link: http://www.parasitesandvectors.com/content/7/1/115

Feline vector-borne diseases (FVBD) have emerged in recent years, showing a wider geographic distribution and increased global prevalence. In addition to their veterinary importance, domestic cats play a central role in the transmission cycles of some FVBD agents by acting as reservoirs and sentinels, a circumstance that requires a One Health approach. The aim of the present work was to molecularly detect feline vector-borne bacteria and protozoa with veterinary and zoonotic importance, and to assess associated risk factors in cats from southern Portugal.
