The antihypertensive flavonol quercetin (Q1) is endowed with a cardioprotective effect against myocardial ischemic damage. Q1 inhibits angiotensin converting enzyme activity, improves vascular relaxation, and decreases oxidative stress and gene expression. However, the clinical application of this flavonol is limited by its poor bioavailability and low stability in aqueous medium. In the aim to overcome these drawbacks and preserve the cardioprotective effects of quercetin, the present study reports on the preparation of five different Q1 analogs, in which all OH groups were replaced by hydrophobic functional moieties. Q1 derivatives have been synthesized by optimizing previously reported procedures and analyzed by spectroscopic analysis. The cardiovascular properties of the obtained compounds were also investigated in order to evaluate whether chemical modification affects their biological efficacy. The interaction with β-adrenergic receptors was evaluated by molecular docking and the cardiovascular efficacy was investigated on the ex vivo Langendorff perfused rat heart. Furthermore, the bioavailability and the antihypertensive properties of the most active derivative were evaluated by in vitro studies and in vivo administration (1 month) on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), respectively. Among all studied Q1 derivatives, only the ethyl derivative reduced left ventricular pressure (at 10- 8 M ÷ 10- 6 M doses) and improved relaxation and coronary dilation. NOSs inhibition by L-NAME abolished inotropism, lusitropism and coronary effects. Chronic administration of high doses of this compound on SHR reduced systolic and diastolic pressure. Differently, the acetyl derivative induced negative inotropism and lusitropism (at 10- 10 M and 10- 8 ÷ 10- 6 M doses), without affecting coronary pressure. Accordingly, docking studies suggested that these compounds bind both β1/β2-adrenergic receptors. Taking into consideration all the obtained results, the replacement of OH with ethyl groups seems to improve Q1 bioavailability and stability; therefore, the ethyl derivative could represent a good candidate for clinical use in hypertension.

Lipid-core polymeric nanocapsules are innovative devices that present distinguished characteristics due to the presence of sorbitan monostearate into the oily-core. This component acted as low-molecular-mass organic gelator for the oil (medium chain trigl
Efficient acylation and one-pot synthesis of dehydroandrographolide succinate on a large scale assisted with microwave radiation

A rapid and convenient method for acylation and large-scale synthesis of dehydroandrographolide succinate has been developed under microwave irradiation. It is a one-pot condensation and is compatible with dehydration and rearrangement of double bond in mild reaction conditions with good yield, high purity (up to 99.8%), time-savings, few pollutants and low cost. In addition, a number of acylation derivatives were synthesized under microwave irradiation.

Acacia tortilis is one of the important species of genus Acacia belonging to family Leguminaceae. Though there is no more study performed on this plant but it plays important role in the countries where it found. These countries include North Africa, Arabian Peninsula and Asian countries. The various part of Acacia tortilis plant say leaves, pods, gum exudates and bark were used as antidiabetic, antidiarrhoeal, antiasthmatic and also had several other medicinal benefits. The present discussion deals with the isolation and characterization of the following compounds from the leaves of Acacia tortilis. Lupan-3-ol, 12,20-diene, Lupan-12, 20-dien 3-one, Friedelin, ?-amyrin, ?- sitosterol, Apigenin, Luteolin, Quercetin, 5,7-dihydroxy-4-p-methyl benzylisoflavone, Vitexin, 2',6'-dihydroxy chalcone-4'-O-glucoside.
