Description
This project employed a rational drug design and development approached to make hybrid dual-acting antioxidants as potential medications for managing chronic inflammation and oxidative stress-related diseases such as arthritis and Parkinson disease. The approach (pharmacophore hybridization strategy) combined various nitroxide compounds with known drugs - mainly the NSAID and sympathomimetic stimulants class of drugs. The hybrid compounds developed in this project displayed promising therapeutic actions as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer agents.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
