Sabah1, Muna S. Al-Rawi1, Jumbad H. Tomma1 1Department of Chemistry, College of Education for Pure Science Ibn Al- Haitham, University of Baghdad, Baghdad, Iraq Abstract A series of amic acid derivatives of mefenamic acid were synthesized with the aim of inhibitting topical gastrointestinal toxicity of mefenamic acid. The key intermediate amic acid (III) was prepared from the reaction of acid hydrazid of mefenamic acid(II) with phthalic anhydrides in dry actone. The new type of imide compound (IV) was dehydrated the amic acid(III) with acetic anhydrous and sodium acetate. The esterification of hydroxyl groups of amic acid (III) produce corresponding ester(V), which was condensed with hydrazine hydrate to give acid hydrazide (VI), then the later compound reacted with syringaldehyde in dry benzene to yield new schiff base (VII). The new derivatives containing heterocyclic unit (VIII)- (X), four and five, member ring were successfully formed such as azetidin-2-one, thiazolidin-4-one, and,imidazolidin-4-one. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed using FTIR,1 HNMR, Mass and CHN-S. The antibacterial activities of some synthesized compounds were screened and showed a highest or low inhibition against Staph.aureus (G+), Bacillus subtilisa (G+), Klebsiella pneumoniae (G-), and E.coli (G-). Also, The cytotoxic effect of different concentrations of some the synthesized compounds was tested against MCF-7 cell line (human breast carcinoma cells) and positive results were obtained for some of them, which encouraged us to study the toxicity using living organisms (mice) to evaluate its acute toxicity and proved the resules of non-toxicity of the derivatives.

    EU‐RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN GRANISETRON VIANEX® 1 MG/ML, SOLUTION FOR INJECTION/ INFUSION precautionary measure, breast‐feeding should not be advised during treatment with Granisetron “Vianex”. Legal Status: Prescription only product. VI.2 Elements for a public summary VI.2.1 Overview of disease epidemiology Nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy and radiotheraphy: One of the most distressing symptoms for patients undergoing both surgery and chemotherapy is nausea and vomiting. These symptoms have a significant impact on quality of life and can lead to malnutrition, inability to respond to treatment and an increased length of hospitalization. Emesis is more commonly associated with chemotherapeutic agents; however, radiation‐induced nausea and vomiting (RINV) can affect a significant proportion of patients, depending on the treated area, dose fractionation, and volume of radiotherapy. The relative risk for developing nausea and vomiting with chemotherapy ranges from 30 to 90% and is dependent upon the chemotherapeutic agent used. Relative risk for nausea and vomiting with radiation therapy is approximately 40%.2,3,4,5 Post‐operative nausea and vomiting Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a major source of patient dissatisfaction and is the leading cause of discharge delays and unanticipated postsurgical hospital admissions. In the absence of pharmacological treatment, the rate of PONV is approximately 30% in general population, and can be as high as 70% in patients at highest risk. Several risk factors as surgery type, female gender, non‐smoker status, history of postoperative nausea and vomiting or motion sickness and post‐operative opioid use have been acknowledged. Additionally, post‐ operative vomiting (POV) occurs twice as frequently in children as in adults, increasing until puberty and then decreasing to adult incidence rates.

However, the neurobiological mechanism regarding this effect remains unclear. In the present study, the effects of subanesthetic doses of ketamine on serotonergic systems in conscious monkey brain were investigated. Five young monkeys 11 underwent four positron emission tomography measurements with [ C]-3-amino-4-(2-dimethylaminomethyl-phenylsulfanyl)benzoni- 11 trile ([ C]DASB) for the serotonin transporter (SERT), during and after intravenous infusion of vehicle or ketamine hydrochloride in a 11 dose of 0.5 or 1.5 mg/kg for 40 min, and 24 h post infusion. Global reduction of [ C]DASB binding to SERT was observed during ketamine infusion in a dose-dependent manner, but not 24 h later. The effect of ketamine on the serotonin 1A receptor (5-HT1A-R) and dopamine transporter (DAT) was also investigated in the same subjects studied with [11C]DASB. No significant changes were observed in either 5-HT -R or DAT binding after ketamine infusion. Microdialysis analysis indicated that ketamine infusion transiently increased 1A serotonin levels in the extracellular fluid of the prefrontal cortex.

The molecules exhibited displacement of a radiolabeled sodium channel ligand and selectivity for blockade of the inactivated state of cloned neuronal Nav channels. Metabolically stable analogue 6 was able to protect retinal ganglion cells during optic neuritis in a mouse model of multiple sclerosis. ■ INTRODUCTION Voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels are the fundamental generators of electrical impulses (action potentials) in the membranes of excitable cells. A number of clinically used drugs ff exert their therapeutic e ects through Nav. These drugs are primarily used in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, such as epilepsy and neuropathic pain, but are increasingly being scrutinized as potential treatments for neurodegenerative conditions occurring acutely, such as in ischemic stroke, or chronically, as in multiple sclerosis (MS).1 Phenytoin 1 was one of the first antiepileptics developed (Figure 1).
