Hybrid molecules as inhibitors of the monoamine oxidases and caspase 3 for neurodegenerative disorders
(University of the Western Cape, 2016)
Neurodegenerative diseases are multifactorial in nature, and taking the complex nature of these disorders into consideration, multi-target directed ligands may present as better options to treat these disorders than the ...
Novel tricycloundecane derivatives as potential N-methyl-Daspartate receptor and calcium channel inhibitors for neuroprotection
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)
This study focused on the synthesis of a series of novel tricycloundecane derivatives and evaluation of these compounds for neuroprotection using the fluorescent ratiometric calcium assay that indicates the ability of the ...
Polycyclic propargylamine derivatives as multifunctional neuroprotective agents
(University of the Western Cape, 2018)
The abnormal death of neurons in the central nervous system of individuals suffering from neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ...
Synthesis & biological evaluation of neuroprotective molecules with polycyclic scaffolds
(University of the Western Cape, 2017)
Among neurological disorders, many of the most devastating disorders are
neurodegenerative. Modern research associates excitotoxicity to a variety of
neuropathological conditions, suggesting that the neurodegenerative ...
Evaluation of satherlandia frutescens for anti.cancer activity
(University of the Western Cape, 2002)
The claim for anti-cancer activity of the plant Sutherlandiafrutescens was
investigated against some cancer cell lines in-vitro and against a dichlorvos induced
chemical carcinogenesis in-vivo. A preliminary phytochemical ...
