https://www.selleckchem.com/products/kb-0742-dihydrochloride.html A new series of N-substituted pyrazoline derivatives 6a-g, 7a-g, 8a-g, and 9a-g was synthetized by reaction of hydrazine derivatives and chalcone-thiazole hybrids bearing nitrogen mustard 5a-g. The chalcones 5a-g were obtained by Claisen-Schmidt condensation of thiazole-2-nitrogen mustard 3 and selected acetophenones 4a-g. These new compounds 6/7/8/9a-g were screened for their antifungal activity against Cryptococcus neoformans, with IC50 values of 3.9-7.8 µg/ml for the N-3,5-dichlorophenyl pyrazolines 9e-g. Interestingly, those compounds show low cytotoxic effects toward erythrocytes (RBC). In addition, N-acetyl (6a,b) and N-formyl pyrazolines (7a, 7b, 7c, and 7g) showed inhibitory activity against methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-resistant S. aureus, and vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus, with the most important minimum inhibitory concentration values ranging from 31.25 to 125 µg/ml. Regarding the antiprotozoal activity, thiazolyl-pyrazolines 9g, 8f, and 7c display high activity against Plasmodium falciparum, Leishmania (V) panamensis, and Trypanosoma cruzi, with EC50 values of 11.80, 6.46, and 4.98 μM, respectively, and with 7c being approximately 2.6-fold more potent than benznidazole with a selectivity index of 1.61 on U-937 human cells, showing promising potential as a novel antitrypanosomal agent. © 2020 Deutsche Pharmazeutische Gesellschaft.AIMS To identify and evaluate available evidence on the effectiveness of character strengths-based intervention on the psychological well-being of patients with chronic illnesses. DESIGN A systematic review with meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES Six electronic databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, EBSCO (CINAHL® and MEDLINE), Web of Science and PsycINFO, were searched from inception to December 2018.
