Epilepsy is generally described as a pathology resulting from an imbalance between excitatory and inhibitory activities. In recent years, neurotrophins have been recognized as key players in the pathophysiology of nervous system diseases. One such neurotrophin, BDNF, and its receptor, TrkB, play critical roles as epileptogenic factors that regulate neuronal hyperexcitability and synaptic plasticity. In this study, we sought to elucidate the exact mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective and antiepileptic effects of pantoprazole. The molecular docking study indicated key interactions of pantoprazole with the TrkB receptor (PDB ID: 4AT3). Furthermore, pantoprazole exhibited notable in vitro TrkB kinase inhibitory activity (IC Show less
Three single component Dy(iii) complexes featuring β-diketone ligand TTBD (4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(2-thienyl)-1,3-butanedione) were studied for their potential as white-light emitters. The complexes includ Show more
Three single component Dy(iii) complexes featuring β-diketone ligand TTBD (4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(2-thienyl)-1,3-butanedione) were studied for their potential as white-light emitters. The complexes include a water-containing species (DyA) and two anhydrous species (DyM and DyD) incorporating the auxiliary bidentate ligand pyrazine (pyz). The coordination geometry and ligand environment, particularly the nuclearity and presence of sensitizing co-ligands, significantly influence the relative intensities of the characteristic Dy(iii) yellow Show less
