Important Drug

Drug–drug interactions (DDIs) can cause drug toxicities, reduced pharmacological effects, and adverse drug reactions. Studies aiming to determine the possible DDIs for an investigational drug are part of the drug discovery and development process and include an assessment of the DDIs potential mediated by inhibition or induction of the most important drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450 isoforms. Our study was dedicated to creating a computer model for prediction of the DDIs mediated by the seven most important P450 cytochromes: CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C19, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4. For the creation of structure–activity relationship (SAR) models that predict metabolism-mediated DDIs for pairs of molecules, we applied the Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances (PASS) software and Pairs of Substances Multilevel Neighborhoods of Atoms (PoSMNA) descriptors calculated based on structural formulas. About 2500 records on DDIs mediated by these cytochromes were used as a training set. Prediction can be carried out both for known drugs and for new, not-yet-synthesized substances. The average accuracy of the prediction of DDIs mediated by various isoforms of cytochrome P450 estimated by leave-one-out cross-validation (LOO CV) procedures was about 0.92. The SAR models created are publicly available as a web resource and provide predictions of DDIs mediated by the most important cytochromes P450.

The aim of the study was to perform column adsorption liquid chromatography in order to obtain ethanol eluate, after preliminary sequential elution of ethanol extract with solvents in the order of their polarity: n–hexane, toluene, chloroform, acetone; to study in detail the chemical composition of this eluate by chromatography-mass spectrometry and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, with the intensification of compounds determining the composition of eluate, obtaining their masses -spectra, structural formulas, determination of the nature of trace elements. Materials and methods of research. A detailed study of the chemical composition of acetone eluate of ethanol extract of walnuts+ leaves was carried out using column adsorption liquid chromatography, chromato-mass spectrometry and X-ray fluorescence analysis. The results and their discussion. The features of the chemical composition of ethanol eluate of the product of column adsorption liquid chromatography of ethanol extract were studied, the qualitative composition and quantitative content of compounds identified in the first one were established by chromatography-mass spectrometry. Mass spectra and structural formulas were obtained for 31 individual eluate compounds. Ethanol eluate is characterized by the following indicators of structural and group composition (mass. % of eluate): esters of phthalic acid - 52.14, silicon and sulfur-containing compounds, respectively - 20.19 and 6.43, hydrocarbons - 15.38, glycosides - 2.21, alcohols - 1.92, carboxylic acids - 1.07, sterols - 0.89. It is assumed that the pharmacological effect of ethanol eluate is mainly determined by a set of free carboxylic acids, as well as phthalic acid, formed as a result of biochemical and hydrological transesterification of its esters containing compounds, alcohols, glycosides and sterols. Organosilicon compounds during hydrolysis give silica in the size of nanoparticles, which play the role of carriers of the above compounds to various organs of a living organism, as well as drainage of blood vessels from the products of cell metabolism, for example, cholesterol, various fats, etc. A comparative characteristic of the chemical composition of all ethanol extract eluates was carried out, the effectiveness of column adsorption liquid chromatography was shown.

The focus of this paper is centered on the thermal reduction of KMnO4 at controlled temperatures of 400 and 800 °C. The materials under study were characterized by atomic absorption spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, average oxidation state of manganese, nitrogen adsorption–desorption, and impedance spectroscopy. The structural formulas, found as a result of these analyses, were K 0.29 + ( M n 0.84 4 + M n 0.16 3 + ) O 2.07 · 0.61 H 2 O and K 0.48 + ( M n 0.64 4 + M n 0.36 3 + ) O 2.06 · 0.50 H 2 O . The N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms show the microporous and mesoporous nature of the structure. Structural analysis showed that synthesis temperature affects the crystal size and symmetry, varying their electrical properties. Impedance spectroscopy (IS) was used to measure the electrical properties of these materials. The measurements attained, as a result of IS, show that these materials have both electronic and ionic conductivity. The conductivity values obtained at 10 Hz were 4.1250 × 10−6 and 1.6870 × 10−4 Ω−1cm−1 for Mn4 at 298 and 423 K respectively. For Mn8, the conductivity values at this frequency were 3.7074 × 10−7 (298) and 3.9866 × 10−5 Ω−1cm−1 (423 K). The electrical behavior was associated with electron hopping at high frequencies, and protonic conduction and ionic movement of the K+ species, in the interlayer region at low frequencies.
