The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by their spectral (IR, 1H NMR, Mass), elemental analyses data and evaluated for in vitro antitubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv ATCC 27294 and antibacterial activity against different Gram +ve and Gram -ve bacteria. The preliminary screening results revealed that some of the compounds possess promising antimicrobial activity. Amongst the new series of compounds, 6m containing pyrrolyl and 4-methylphenyl groups and 6r possessing 2-pyridyl and 2-methylphenyl groups were found to exhibit a significant antitubercular activity (MIC=12.5-25 μg/mL) in comparison with the first line drug pyrazinamide.

By analogy to verapamil, 1,4-dihydropyridines (DHPs) have been widely studied as P-gp inhibitors. Previously, we have reported on two new DHPs: IA 1 (A) and IIA 5 (B) as inhibitors of human MRP1, an efflux protein closely related to P-gp. The aim of the present study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of these two compounds on intestinal P-gp using the method of in situ single-pass intestinal perfusion (SPIP) in rat. According to this, the intestinal absorption of zidovudine (a P-gp substrate) was studied in anaesthetized rat jejunum in the absence and presence of DHPs IA 1 (A) and IIA 5 (B) (2 mg/kg). Verapamil (0.8 mg/kg), a well-known P-gp inhibitor, was employed as a standard. Zidovudine solution (200 ìg/mL) in phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) was perfused through the jejunal segment, the perfusate concentrations were quantified by HPLC, and the permeability coefficient (P eff) and fraction absorbed (F abs) were calculated. Phenol red was used as a non-absorbable marker to correct water flux through the segment. In rats pretreated with compounds IA 1 and IIA 5 , P eff and F abs of zidovudine were found to be 0.1669 ± 0.12 cm/sec, 0.2035 ± 0.18 and 0.2798 ± 0.12 cm/sec, 0.3015 ± 0.14, respectively, and were comparable to those of the standard (P eff = 0.462713 ± 0.3 cm/sec, F abs = 0.511835 ± 0.14). The differences between IA 1 , IIA 5 and the standard were evaluated using ANOVA and found to be statistically significant (P < 0.05). Compounds IA 1 and IIA 5 have a modulating effect on intestinal P-gp. Compound IIA 5 was relatively more potent P-gp inhibitor and, quite interestingly, the results were in agreement with our earlier in silico and in vitro studies.

Overexpression of PIM kinases is observed in various types of cancers including prostate, hematological, pancreatic, breast carcinoma and likewise. PIM kinases have now been considered as limelight target for the discovery of new molecules as novel anticancer agents as no drug is in market targeting PIM kinases. In the last two decades, numerous PIM kinase inhibitors have been developed and few of them were in clinical trial phases but could not pass the pipeline of the clinical trials. The present comprehensive review intends to cover biological and the structural aspects of PIM kinases and also medicinal chemistry of PIM inhibitors developed in recent years.

Among them, 4a was the most potent antihistaminic (IC50 value of 30.2 μM; standard, chlorpheniramine maleate showed an IC50 of 14.1 μM).
