" An introduction to Drug Discovery by rational approach and
applications of Green Chemistry in Drug Synthesis"
Prof. Dr. J. Saravanan, Principal,

Abstract
Rational drug discovery is a more streamlined process that requires careful consideration of the
target of the drug as well as the drug itself. This method of drug design uses special equipment to
examine the three-dimensional structure of a drug target and then find a compound that can
interact with the target. Rational drug design therefore requires sound knowledge of chemistry as
well as biology, because chemical interactions between drugs and their targets are what
determine whether a drug is biologically active.
Discovery of new drugs by serendipity and random screening is no more appropriate, instead
drug discovery by rational approach involving techniques like bioisosterism , enzyme inhibition
, consideration of Lipinski rule of five and so on.
The term green chemistry is defined as the invention, design and application of chemical
products and processes to reduce or to eliminate the use and generation of hazardous
substances. Green chemistry can diminish the need for other approaches to environmental
protection. Ideally, the application of green chemistry principles and practice renders regulation,
control, clean-up, and remediation unnecessary, and the resultant environmental benefit can be
expressed in terms of economic impact.
Microwave assisted organic synthesis has revolutionized organic synthesis. Small molecules can
be built in a fraction of the time required by classical thermal methods. As a result, this
technique has rapidly gained acceptance as a valuable tool for accelerating drug discovery and
development processes.

In the present study, the 50 % w/w ethanolic extract of natural occurring medicinal plant
Argyreia speciosa (L.f), sweet (Family Convolvulaceae) was studied for antioxidant, antiulcer
activity and its purified secondary metabolites were assessed for growth promoting effects on
probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus casei. The gastric ulcers were significantly decreased by all
doses of ASE and probiotic combination as compared with the indomethacin (25 mg/kg body
weight) treated group. In the stomach tissues of treated animals, antioxidant levels were
examined. The administration of indomethacin caused a significant decrease in the levels of
superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidise (GPx) and reduced glutathione (GSH), and
a raise in the lipid peroxidation (LPO) level (p < 0.05). The administration of all doses of ASE
reversed the trend, call to mind a significant increase of SOD, GSH and GPx levels and a
reduction in LPO level in tissues. However, catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR) and
myeloperoxidase (MPx) activities, increased by indomethacin, were found to be lower in the
ASE, probiotic combination of ASE + L.casei and omeprazole-treated groups. The gastric
mucosal constitutive NO synthase (cNOS) and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) activities were
also investigated in tissues of ASE (100 mg/kg), ASE (100 mg/kg) + L. casei (10-8 con.),
omeprazole and indomethacin-treated rat groups. The administration of ASE + L.casei and
omeprazole increased the cNOS activity and lowered the iNOS activity as compared with
indomethacin-treated group. As far as the growth promoting effects of ASE metabolites on L.
casei is concerned, querecetin showed high growth stimulating activity in increased dry matter of
biomass. At low pH growth promoting activity of metabolite was found stable.

Methylxanthines are used for the preparation of group of drugs. These are playing very important
for smoothing of bronchial muscles and stimulate central nervous system (CNS).The
bronchodilator effects of such drugs are applied in the treatment in acute asthma. Such drugs are
also used in the treatment of aponea and have diuretic effect. Oxpentifylline, is a Xanthine
derivative acts as vasodilator. Naturally occurring are caffeine, theophylline and theobromine.
Their derivatives can be used in the improvement form for the treatment of asthma. Modified
forms are Diprophylline, Etamiphylline Camsylate, Proxyphylline and Hydroxytheophylline,
Etofylline. They can be prepared and sell into the market as tread names. Aminophylline,
Aminophylline Hydrate, Choline Theophyllinate. Theobromine is also used in the treatment of
angina pectoris and hyper tension. The basic nucleus is xanthine. It can be substituted by various
groups for the preparation more effective drugs. Now days air pollution is fast growing and
Indian citizens are suffering from respiratory problems. More emphasis is required on bronchial
drugs and treatment of bronchitis, asthma, emphysema and acute respiratory infection .we feel
among such drugs Aminophylline would be better. It can be given orally as well as through
injection.

Amity Institute of Pharmacy, AUUP, Lucknow Campus
Various advanced drug delivery systems such as nanoparticle which include polymeric micelles,
dendrimers , liposomes, SLN, have been investigated to overcome the limitation of the
conventional systems. Considering effectiveness of drug therapy of methotrexate (MXT), the study
focused on formulation of liposomes. The objective of this study was to achieve desired
entrapment of methotrexate in liposome. Liposomes were prepared by thin film hydration method
The liposome were prepared and characterized by, zeta potential for surface charges and particle
size analysis done by Malvern nanosizer and average particle size and zeta potential was found
to be 169 nm and -16.9mV respectively. Liposomal formulations as carrier system for MTX
destined for treatment of cancer by passive targeting Dynamic in vitro drug release was carried
out using phosphate buffer pH 7.4. A short term stability studies was conducted for 2 months at
40C and at room temperature (250C). Final formulations were prepared after lyophilizing the
selected liposomes.. MTX entrapped in the liposomes and the entrapment efficiency was found
to be 83 %. The drug loading and entrapment efficiencies were evaluated by a HPLC method
(C18 column 5m, 150mm4.6mm,50mM ammonium acetate/acetonitrile mobile phase v/v 3.0
ml/min flow rate and 256 nm UV detection).The evaluation studies of different processing
variables like drug to lipid ratio, soya lecithin to cholesterol ratio, temperature were evaluated .

Rats were divided into five different groups (n=6), the group I served as a control, Group II
received Isoniazid-INH and rifampicin-RIF (50mg/kg) in sterile water, group III and IV served
as a treatment and received 200,400 mg/kg of 50% ethonolic extract of A. nilotica, and group V
served as standard group and received silymarin (100mg/kg). All the treatments were given for
10-28 days and after rats were authorized, blood and liver were collected for biochemical and
histopathological studies, respectively. The 50% ethanolic bark extract of A. nilotica (200, 400
mg/kg p.o.) showed the remarkable hepatoprotective effect against Isoniazid-INH and
rifampicin-RIF induced hepatic damage, and observed that it shows no any significant change in
a normal posture, behavior and body weight in Wistar rats. The degree of protection was
measured by biochemical and antioxidant parameters such as serum glutamate oxaloacetate
transaminase (SGOT), serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT), alkaline phosphatase
(ALP), total bilirubin, and the histopathological profile of liver also indicated the
hepatoprotective nature of this drug. The bark extract of A. nilotica has showed dose dependent
activity, among which at the dose level of 200 & 400 mg/kg. The further investigations, the bark
extract of A. nilotica identify the active constituents responsible for hepatoprotection.

Alcoholic liver disease has a known aetiology but a complex and incompletely known
pathogenesis. It is an extremely common disease with signicant morbidity and mortality.
Therapy for treatment of it comes with lot of side effects. Presently there is a need of some
natural therapy with lesser side effects and more potential to treat the disease.
Present study is designed with an objective to investigate the antioxidant and

Plant based medicines are popular worldwide due to their negligible side effects. There is no
control over the quality of the raw material for medicinal plant use. There are various incidences
of adulteration of medicinal plants with useless weeds. Keeping this in mind, it is imperative to
authenticate the plant material before being used.
Our study plant Tribulus terrestris (Zygophyllaceae), has utmost medicinal importance in curing
urinary discharges, cough, asthma, pain, spermatorrhoea, ophthalmia, anemia, dysentery, skin
and heart diseases; The original use for T. terrestris extract was as a tonic to treat sexual
dysfunction. The plant get often confused with Kallstroemia parviflora and K. californica,
because of their similar morphology. These plants, often get accidentally mixed with T. terrestris
while collecting raw material for herbal drug preparations, making them less efficient or some
times toxic. Samples of this plant were collected from different geographical locations in India.
Random amplified polymorphic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) analysis of collected samples was
carried out with 24 random primers. A 510-bp DNA fragment, common to all accessions, was
eluted, cloned, and sequenced. Four LAMP primers were designed on the basis of sequence of
510 bp DNA fragment. LAMP reaction was performed at 65C for 1 h. The resulting amplicon
was visualized through SYBR Green I. LAMP using a primer set for T. terrestris and total DNA
extracted from T. terrestris leaves (0.510.0 ng) as template was detected up to 70 min. On the
other hand, in the reaction using a primer set for T. terrestris and total DNA from K. parviflora
as template, no amplifications were detected. The same tendency could be seen in the reactions
using a set of primers for K. parviflora. LAMP enabled not only identification but also detection
with high specificity. The data showed confirmatory results. Since the assay method is simple,
sensitive, and cost-effective, it is a feasible method for identifying and authentication of C.
roseus.

Diclofenac is the medicine works by reducing substances in the body that causes pain and
inflammation. Diclofenac used to treat mild to moderate pain, or signs and symptoms
of osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. The Cataflam brand of this medicine is also used to treat
menstrual cramps. Diclofenac 75 to 150mg daily (25 to 50mg 3 times daily) is comparable in
efficacy with ordinary aspirin 3 to 5g daily and indomethacin 75 to 150mg daily in rheumatoid
arthritis and with indomethacin in osteoarthritis Diclofenac powder (Cambia) is used to treat
a migraine headache attack. It will not prevent headaches or reduce the number of attacks not use
Diclofenac. If patient have a history of allergic reaction to aspirin or NSAIDs it can increase the
risk of fatal heart attack or stroke, especially if he use it long term or take high doses, if he
suffering from heart disease. Although there is some evidence of Diclofenac efficacy when
administered twice daily, or once daily as a slow release tablet. The drug is also available as
suppositories and ampoules for intramuscular injection. It is not recommended just before or
after heart bypass surgery (coronary artery bypass graft or CABG). These conditions can occur
without warning while you are using this medicine, especially in older adults. No one of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents is the most suitable drug for all patients requiring such
therapy, and Diclofenac should be considered along with other drugs of its type in the arthritic
patient.

The blood brain barrier (BBB) represents one of the strictest barriers of in- vivo therapeutic drug
delivery. The barriers are restricted exchange of hydrophilic compounds, small proteins and
charged molecules between the plasma and central nervous system (CNS). For decades, the BBB
has prevented the use of many therapeutic agents for treating Alzheimers disease, stroke, brain
tumor, head injury, spinal cord injury, depression, anxiety and other CNS disorders. The
emerging approach is to bypass the BBB by intranasal delivery, which provides a practical, noninvasive, rapid and simple method to deliver the therapeutic agents to the CNS. This method
works the unique connection between the nose and the brain that has evolved to sense odors and
other chemical stimuli. On the basis of clinical trials (Phase I and II) it is reported that the
intranasal route is feasible for the transport of the drug to the CNS. Intranasal delivery does not
require any modification of the therapeutic agents and does not require that drugs be coupled
with any carrier like in case of drug delivery across the BBB. A wide variety of therapeutic
agents, including both small molecules and macromolecules can be successfully delivered,
including to the CNS, using the intranasal method. Advantage of intranasal delivery are
Bypasses the BBB and targets the CNS, reducing systemic exposure and thus systemic side
effects and Avoids destruction in the gastrointestinal tract, hepatic first pass elimination and
gut wall metabolism, allowing increased, reliable bioavailability.

Platus, a roman philosopher words, A woman without paint is like food without salt."
Nanocosmetics are any cosmetic containing nanoparticles. Nanoparticle is any entity with all
three external dimensions in the nanosize. The magnitude of size of particles in the range of 1 nm
to 100 nm is considered as nanoscale. Nanocosmetics was actually the first branch of
nanotechnology to be commercialized and marketed to consumers, according to Davis Baird.
Antiaging products are the most common example of nanocosmetics, with nanoparticles that go
beneath the surface of the skin and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles by reacting with
the body. Various forms of nanotechnology involved in cosmeceuticals like Nanoparticle,
Nanoemulsions, Bucky balls, Nanogel, Microgels Liposomes, Dendrimers, Cubosomes, Solid
Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNs). Recent researches focusing on cosmeceutical products highlighted
strong growth perspectives in the coming years. According to them expanding at a rapid
compound annual growth rate of 7.7%, the global cosmeceutical market will reach $31.84 billion
by 2016. The global cosmeceutical market offers huge potential among the Asian countries, such
as Japan, China, and India which are set to attract major players in the future. Japan has already
made a remarkable position in the global cosmetics market and its position in the cosmeceutical
segment is effectively improving. A report, Cosmeceuticals market to 2018, forecasted that the

The respiratory tract is one of the oldest routes used for the administration of drugs. Over the
past decades inhalation therapy has established. It is a valuable tool in the local therapy of
pulmonary diseases such as asthma or COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). This
type of drug application in the therapy of these diseases is a clear form of targeted drug delivery.
Currently, over 25 drug substances are marketed as inhalation aerosol products for local
pulmonary effects and about the same number of drugs are in different stages of clinical
development. Pulmonary delivered drugs are rapidly absorbed except large macromolecules
drugs, which may yield low bioavailability due to enzymatic degradation and/or low mucosal
permeability. Pulmonary bioavailability largely depends on the physical properties of the
delivered protein and it is not the same for all peptide and protein drugs. Pulmonary drug
delivery is important researches are an impacts the treatment of illnesses including asthma,
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and various diseases. Inhalation gives the most direct
access to drug target. In the treatment of obstructive respiratory diseases, pulmonary delivery can
minimize systemic side effects, provide rapid response and minimize the required dose since the
drug is delivered directly to the conducting zone of the lungs.

There are many routs to deliver drugs into the body viz oral (through swallowing), sub mucosal
(through buccal and sublingual mucosa), parenteral (through injection), transdermal (through
skin), pulmonary (through inhalation) etc. Among these deliveries rectal routs is widely
accepted. Rectum delivery uses the rectum as a rout of administration for medication and other
fluids which are absorbed by the rectums blood vessels and flow into the bodys circulatory
system which distributes the drugs to the bodys organs. There are many advantages of the rectal
drug delivery system it avoidance of GI metabolism and degradation. The rectal route of
administration is useful for patients who cannot swallowed, Avoidance of irritation to the
stomach, partial avoidance of first pass metabolism, Rapid absorption of many low molecular
weight drugs. Prolonged effect, Absorption enhancement, Rate control drug delivery .There are
many drugs which are available in the market which are applied to rectal route like creams, gels,
suppositories, suspensions and rectal aerosols. Suppositories are available in two forms like solid
suppositories, liquid suppositories, Suppositories are medicated solid bodies suitably shaped for
rectal administration rectal drug delivery systems used the deliver the drug by using

TARGETED DRUG DELIVERY TO CNS USING NANOPARTICLES
Sahar Idris*, Aijaz Ahmad, Md. Zishan, Arun Kumar, Mohammad Amir, Nazma Khan
Nano technology plays a unique and pivotal role in the development of brain specific drug
delivery, imaging and diagnosis. Targeted drug delivery is a means of concentrating dugs at a
specific site relative to other parts of the body. It spares the rest of the body from toxic effects of
the drug and is also a potential means of improving therapeutic index. The delivery of drugs to
the CNS is of prime importance for treating specific neurological disorders and various diseases
such as Meningitis, Encephalitis, degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer, Parkinsons and
tumors such as Glioblastoma. The major problem in treating such CNS disorders is due to their
inability to surpass the natural CNS protective barriers, mainly the Blood Brain Barrier and the
Blood cerebrospinal fluid Barrier. Nanoparticle systems in CNS targeted drug therapy provide
better penetration of therapeutic and diagnostic agents, and a reduced risk in comparison to
conventional treatments. By using nanotechnology it is possible to deliver the drug to the
targeted tissue across the BBB, release the drug at a controlled rate, and avoid degradation
processes. Different types of nanoparticles used for CNS targeted drug delivery like inorganic
nanoparticles, Polymeric Nanoparticles, Solid Lipid Nanoparticles, Nano crystals, Carbon
nanotubes, Dendrimers, Quantum Dots, Gold Nanoparticles and Magnetic Nanoparticles.

Cancer became a big question for scientific community as no existing treatments could
solve this dreadful disease. Research is in well progress since half century but it failed to give a
right solution to fight against it. One such mile stone treatment for cancer that is giving good
hope to the people is cancer vaccines. Cancer vaccines are made from the persons own cancer
cells or from cells that are grown in a laboratory. Tumor vaccines are often based on DNA
construct viral vectors and cytokines that have been determined as safe. From previous clinical
trials Peptide vaccines are generally safe so long as the cytokine adjutants are used in
combinations and doses previously determined to be safe. A patient with pulmonary metastasis
of colon cancer was treated with artificially synthesized helper/killer-hybrid epitope long peptide
(H/K-HELP) of MAGE-A4 cancer antigen. The patient was vaccinated with MAGE-A4-H/KHELP combined with OK432 and Montanide ISA-51. There were no severe side-effects except
for a skin reaction at the injection site.
Antigen based tumor vaccines do not involve the insertion of modified tumor cell or immune cell
into the body. Instead, purified tumor proteins (antigens) are injected to stimulate the patients
antigen presenting cells (APCs) to take up the antigen and present it to T cells.

Nanotechnology is new concept, it has been included biomedical, drug delivery, diagnostic,
imaging and mainly focusing in treatment and diagnosis of cancer & other disease state.
Nanoparticles (NPs) have unique and specific properties in terms of chemical and biological by
their small size ranges (1-100 nm) to have a surface area to volume ratio, which allows them to
combine, absorb and hold other compounds like drugs molecules, DNA, RNA, proteins.
Furthermore, their small size, shape and surface and other favourable characteristics helps the
drug therapy to become more stable, targeted, carrier orientated and incorporate with both
hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances. Biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles are the carriers
or vehicle where therapeutic agents can be encapsulated in their matrix and conjugated for
targeted delivery of a number of drugs. The site specific properties of biodegradable polymer as
nanoparticles reduce local pH and affecting cells microenvironment. There are many
biodegradable polymers use for drug delivery and classified synthetic, examples are poly (lactic
acid), poly (caprolactone), poly (glycolic acid), poly (lactic- co- glycolic acid), poly
(trimethylene carbonate), poly (butylenes succinate), poly (p-dioxanone), poly (butylenes
terephthalate), degrapol, hybrane, poly [(caboxyphenoxy) propane-sebacic acid], poly [bis
(hydroxyethyl) terephthalate-ethyl orthophosphorylate terephthaloyl chloride], poly (ethylene
glycol), poly (ortho esters), tyrosine derived, polycarbonate and semi-synthetic polymers are
poly (- hydroxyalkanoate), poly (hydroxybutvrate), poly (hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate)
and natural polymers are collagen, albumin, chitosan, gluten, hyaluronate, cellulose, alginate,
starch. These biodegradable polymers are non-toxic and completely eliminated and degradation
occurs by oxidation enzymatic reaction or hydrolysis. So that it is very safe and effective vehicle
for delivering drug nanoparticles by increasing the degradation rate of polymeric matrix for

India is a hotspot of biodiversity and is home to a wide variety of medicinally and economically
important plants. A number of techniques were being used from time immemorial for correct
identification of medicinal plants. Molecular markers being independent of any environmental
cues or developmental stage are proved to be very helpful in distinguishing valuable medicinal
plants from their adulterants. Ocimum from Lamiaceae is considered as queen of herbs. Most of
its species are used in traditional medicinal system against cough, cold flu, head and ear
infection, arthritis, rheumatism, malaria, fever, allergies and various skin diseases.
Leaf samples were collected from Lucknow, Delhi, NOIDA, Jaipur and Jammu. We have tested
20 RAPD primers, out of them 12 primers were selected for fingerprinting studies. The reaction
was carried out according to Sarwat et al. (2008). The amplification products were scored for the
presence (1) and absence (0) of bands across the genotypes to generate a binary matrix. The
binary matrix was analyzed using the NTSYS-pc to calculate the similarity values and generate
the phenogram. Jaccards similarity coefficient was utilized for estimating the pairwise similarity
.
Ocimum basilicum was found to be closer to Ocimum sanctum. Interspecific study of Ocimum
sanctum further revealed that although, the tulsi samples were taken from different places they
were morphologically and genetically similar depicting that there was not much genetic
diversity.From these plants, SCAR markers can be developed in future. They are highly efficient,
produce sharp and reproducible bands, are economical than other molecular techniques.

Calcium ions plays a crucial role in key biological processes. The major intracellular calcium
store in the endoplasmic reticulum(ER). Depletion of endoplasmic reticulum calcium stores
promote endoplasmic reticulum stress and that leads to the phosphorylation of eukaryotic
initiation factor 2 (eIF2) and thereby inhibition of translation initiation. Translation initiation
plays an important role in regulation of cell proliferation and malignant transformation and is
therefore an attractive target for the development of mechanism specific anticancer drugs.
Thiazolidine-2, 4-dione & its analogues exhibit anticancer properties mediated by inhibition of
translation initiation. These compounds causes partial & sustained depletion of intracellular
calcium stores because they simultaneously release calcium stores. This partial depletion of
intracellular calcium stores causes activation of eIF2 kinases (PKR or/and PERK) leading to the
phosphorylation of the -subunit of eIF2 (eIF2 ) and inhibition of translation initiation and this
leads to the regulation of cell proliferation i.e. anticancer so it is concluded that thiazolidine-2, 4dione & its analogues as Anticancer mediated by depletion of intracellular Calcium.

insulin resistance. Therefore, Statins are now commonly prescribed for diabetic patients.
Pioglitazone is a thiazolidinedione derivative and it is used in patient with NIDDM. The
probable mechanism of action of Pioglitazone is through the selectively stimulation of nuclear
receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-). Whereas, Lovastatin is an
inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzymeA reductase, an enzyme that catalyzes the
conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate. These drugs are therapeutically used to overcome

Double pylorus (DP) is an uncommon condition consisting of a double communication between
the stomach and the duodenum. DP can occur as either a congenital abnormality or an acquired
complication of peptic ulcer disease. It occurs more often in men (2:1), as well as with other
peptic diseases. The majority of reported cases of double pylorus is acquired and are attributed to
complications of ulcers at the antrum-pyloric area or at the duodenal bulb. Most of them are
consequences of gastric ulcer, and only few cases are due to duodenal ulcer. In this patient, the
previous history of gastric ulcer and the presence of scar tissue at the endoscopic examination
indicated that the lesion are acquired. In diabetes the lack of microcirculation can be the cause.
The majority of the patients respond well to medical treatment, regardless of whether the fistula
is open or closed. However, refractory symptoms can occur in about 20% of the patients, and
surgical treatment is necessary. With the use of potent inhibitors of acid production such as the
proton pump inhibitors, we believe that this number may be reduced. In the clinical setting,
double pylorus can present itself with epigastric pain, dyspeptic symptoms and upper
gastrointestinal bleeding or can be found incidentally.

Curcumin (diferuloyl methane), a hydrophobic polyphenol derived from the dietary spice
turmeric. It possesses properties of anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer following oral
administration. It has mechanisms of action including several cell signalling inhibition pathways,
cell cycle (cyclin D1 and cyclin E), apoptosis (activation of caspases and down-regulation of
antiapoptotic gene products), proliferation (HER-2, EGFR, and AP-1), survival (PI3K/AKT
pathway), invasion (MMP-9 and adhesion molecules), angiogenesis (VEGF), metastasis (CXCR4) and inflammation (NF-jB, TNF, IL-6, IL-1, COX-2, and 5-LOX), effects on cellular enzymes
such as cyclooxygenase and glutathione S-transferases, 37mmune-modulation. Curcumin also
affects gene transcription mechanism and induce apoptosis in preclinical models. The activity of
curcumin reported against leukemia and lymphoma, gastrointestinal cancers, genitourinary
cancers, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, lung cancer,
melanoma, neurological cancers, oral cancer and sarcoma reflects its ability to affect multiple
targets. Epidemiological and clinical studies have suggested that cancer could be prevented or
significantly reduced by treatment with anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory drugs, therefore,
curcumin, a principal component of turmeric (a curry spice) showing strong anti-oxidant and
anti-inflammatory activities, might be a potential candidate for the prevention and/or treatment

Antihypertensive drugs were currently available in the market largely in the form of
conventional dosage forms. There is a need to develop controlled release drug delivery systems
for these categories, so as to optimize the therapy and accrue the benefits enumerated with such
drug delivery systems. One such approach is using polymeric microspheres as drug carriers.
Metoprolol tartrate is rapidly absorbed from both gastric and intestinal regions, after oral
administration.In order to retard the release rate of the metoprolol tartrate, microspheres were
prepared with varying concentrations of a mixture of a water insoluble polymer, ethylcellulose
(EC) and a water-soluble polymer, polyethyleneglycol-6000 (PEG-6000); Table 1. The prepared
microspheres were evaluated for various physicochemical characteristics and in-vitro drug
release.The percent yield of microspheres was in the range 75.2 to 87.3%. A considerable
amount of materials were entrapped into the microspheres (91.0%- 95.7%). This is quite
common with the solvent evaporation method. Particle size of microspheres ranged from 3.27
m to 163.5 m and the average diameter was found to be in the range of 73.2 m to 85.5 m.
FT-IR spectral analysis and DSC concluded the absence of any interaction between the drug and
carriers. The release-time profile of metoprolol tartrate from microspheres in 0.1 N hydrochloric
acid solution was to the extent of 33.4% to 60.2%. The release of metoprolol tartrate from MPT3 and MPT-4, in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4) was complete within 8 and 7 hours
respectively, whereas incomplete release (72.3%) occurred from MPT-1. Nearly complete
release (98.5%) of metoprolol occurred from MPT-2 in 10 hours, Hence, formulation MPT-2
would be a preferred formulation. The release of metoprolol followed the zero-order kinetics, as
the R2 value was higher for zero-order (R2 = 0.9642) than for the first-order (R2 = 0.8260) and
the release mechanism involved is diffusion rate limited (R2 = 0.9865) from microspheres. The
prepared microspheres of metoprolol tartarte eliminate the need for multiple dosing there by
increasing patient compliance and decreasing the occurrence of adverse effects by providing a
prolonged release of drug.

Model-based Drug Development: Applicable to Oncology
Shubham Sharma*, Nimisha Mishra
ASET, Amity University Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow Campus, Lucknow
Model-based drug development (MBDD) is an approach that is used to organize the vast and
complex data streams that feed the drug development pipelines of small molecule and
biotechnology sponsors. Such data streams are ultimately reviewed by the global regulatory
community as evidence of a drugs potential to treat and/or harm patients. Some of this
information is captured in the scientific literature and prescribing compendiums forming the
basis of how new and existing agents will ultimately be administered and further evaluated in the
broader patient community. As this data stream evolves, the details of data qualification, the
assumptions and/or critical decisions based on these data are lost under conventional drug
development paradigms. MBDD relies on the construction of quantitative relationships to
connect data from discrete experiments conducted along the drug development pathway. These
relationships are then used to ask questions relevant at critical development stages, hopefully,
with the understanding that the various scenarios explored represent a path to optimal decision
making. As MBDD becomes more integrated into the pharmaceutical research community, a
more rational explanation for decisions regarding the development of new oncology agents as
well as the proposed treatment regimens that incorporate both new and existing agents can be
expected. Hopefully, the end result is a more focussed clinical development programme, which
ultimately provides a means to optimize individual patient care.

The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of Buxus wallichiana Baill (wood), on
scopolamine-induced amnesia in mice. Amnesia is the bench mark of Alzheimers diseases
(AD) which would become life threatening at sometime. Male mice were randomized to receive
different dose (125, 250, and 500 mg/kg, p.o) of methanol extract of Buxus wallichiana (MEBW)
for fifteen day against donepezil as reference standard. The Effect on learning and memory was
done using standard memory test includes elevated plus maze (EPM), morris water maze
(MWM), passive avoidance task (PAT). MEBW (125, 250 and 500 mg/kg, p.o) has shown
substantial lessen in transfer latency (TL) in EPM whereas, a significant increase has observed in
step down latency in PAT as compared to scopolamine (1 mg/kg, i.p) treated group. Moreover,
MWM test reveal the mark reduction in escape latency time during training by employing
MEBW (125, 250, 500 mg/kg, p.o). In Probe trial, these animals had spent more time compared
to scopolamine treated group. However these drugs did not alter locomotor activity. It has been
concluded that beneficial effect of MEBW on mice may be attributed to the facilitation of
cholinergic transmission and thereby improvement in memory. Therefore, it would be
worthwhile to explore the therapeutic potential of Buxus wallichiana in the management of
patients with cognitive disorders.

The application of nanotechnology for the treatment, diagnosis, monitoring, and control of
biological systems has recently been determined by the National of Health (NIH) as
nanomedicine. The strategy of Nanoparticle delivery plays a significant impact on global
Pharmaceutical planning and marketing. Polymeric nanoparticles are used to control the drug
release, to improve the dissolution of poorly soluble drugs in addition to improve the
bioavailability of degradable substances such as protein. They also enhance the uptake of
hydrophilic substances across the epithelial layers and have the potential for intracellular drug
delivery. The submicron size range of nanoparticles is not only suitable for parenteral application
but also applicable for mucosal routes of administration, i.e., oral, nasal, and ocular mucosa
which are non-invasive route. Thus nanoparticle formulations are more advantageous over
traditional dosage forms. The main aim of the present review deals with the nanoparticles of

Plant adaptogens are compounds that increase the ability of an organism to adapt to
environmental factorsand to avoid damage from such factors. The beneficial effects of multi dose
administration of adaptogens are mainly associated with the hypothalamicpituitary adrenal
(HPA) axis.Thesingle dose application of adaptogensis important in situations that require a
rapid response to tension or to a stressful situation.In this case, the effects of the adaptogens are
associated with another part of the stresssystem, namely, the sympathoadrenal-system (SAS),
that provides a rapid response mechanism mainly to control the acute reaction of the organism to
a stressor.Theadaptogens like Rhodiolarosea, Schizandrachinensis, Eleutherococcussenticosus
etc showed stimulating effects.The phenolic compounds include phenylpropanoids and
phenylethane derivatives such as salidroside (rhodioloside), rosavin, and lignans are structurally
similar to the catecholaminesthe mediators of the sympatho-adrenal- system (SAS)Recent
pharmacological studies of some adaptogens give a rationale to their effects at the molecular
level. Adaptogens may be regarded as a novel pharmacological category of anti-fatigue agents
that perform the several functions including induce increased attention and endurance in
situations of decreased performance caused by fatigue and/or sensation of weakness and reduce
stress-induced impairments and disorders related to the function of stress (neuro-endocrine and

Resilience is defined as the adaptive maintenance of normal physiology, development and
behaviour in the face of pronounced stress and adversity. Resilience to stress has been
documented and characterized in animal models throughout the lifespan. The different models
are Early Life stress, Chronic unpredictable stress, Chronic social defeat stress, and Learned
helplessness.
Early Life stress- animal models of early life stress typically involve exposure to stressful stimuli
during either the prenatal or post natal periods. Chronic unpredictable stress -In CUS paradigms,
animals are exposed to varying mild stressors sequentially for a period of 1e7 weeks. Chronic
social defeat stress- Chronic social defeat stress (CSDS) is a prolonged social stress paradigm
used to delineate stress resilient and susceptible phenotypes in adult rodents. Learned
helplessness-The learned helplessness (LH) model is an acute stress paradigm that, similar to
CSDS, produces heterogeneous responses.Modern research on stress related disorders has
yielded numerous potential targets and biomarkers for diagnosis and treatment, largely due to an
enhanced focus on alternatives to monoamine-based mechanisms, such as epigenetic
mechanisms, immune-related factors, sex, and the biology of resilience.

Chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) induce depression is generally thought to be the most
promising and valuable depressive model. In CUS paradigms, animals are exposed to varying
mild stressors sequentially for a period of 1e7weeks.Stressors can include mild foot shock,
physical restraint, tail suspension, light/dark cycle disruption, food or water restriction, changes
to cage mate, etc., and are changed after several hours to minimize habituation.CUS produces a
range of depression and anxiety-like behaviors in rodents including anhedonia, measured as
decreased sucrose preference, despair-like behavior, measured as increased immobility in the
forced swimand tail suspension tests, and novelty suppressed feeding,measured as a decrease in
approach to a novel food item. Mice exposed to CUS also display decreased grooming,
aggression, and sexual behaviors. Certain CUS-induced behavioral changes, such as novelty
suppressed feeding, can be reversed only by chronic antidepressant treatment making CUS
relevant to human antidepressant responses. Female mice display immobility in the forced swim
test after just 6 days of subchronic unpredictable stress (SCUS) whereas males are generally
resilient to SCUS and require 20e 28 days of CUS exposure to elicit depression- and anxiety-like
behavior. Sex differences and age effects in susceptibility to CUS-induced depression and
anxiety-like behavior make this a powerful tool for investigating the hormonal and neural basis
for stress induced depression.

mammalian tissues to injury due to any agent. It is also a body defence reaction in order to
eliminate or limit the spread of injurious and tissue and it is manifestation of the body response
to tissue damage and infection. Flavonisds are a group of plant metabolites thought to provide
health benefits, cell signalling pathways and antioxidant effect. Different types of flavonoids,
flavonols and
flavanones, flavan-3-ols anthocyanins, flavones and Isoflavones. Flavonoids
MOA a number of flavonoids such as hesperidin, apigenin, luteolin, and quercetin are reported to
possess anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects its may affect specifically the function of
enzyme systems especially tyrosine and serine-threonine protein kinases. The inhibition of
kinases is due to the competitive binding of flavonoids with ATP at catalytic sites on the
enzymes. Flavonoids also inhibit phosphodiesterases and biosynthesis of protein cytokines that
mediate adhesion of circulating leukocytes to sites of injury flavonoids are potent inhibitors of
the production of prostaglandins. As conclusion, it can be concluded that there is wide scope of
herbal drugs and their formulations used for analgesic and anti-inflammatory disorder.

Alzheimers disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by severe
cognitive impairments. A major histopathological hallmark of AD is the presence of amyloid
deposits in the parenchyma of the amygdala, hippocampus, and neocortex. -amyloid is a small
piece of a larger protein called amyloid precursor protein (APP). The main component of
amyloid is the -Amyloid protein (A), a 39.43 amino acid peptide composed of a portion of the
transmembrane domain and the extracellular domain of the APP. A deposition leads to synaptic
degeneration and interacts with different types of central nervous system receptors; hence, it
disrupts neuronal homeostasis. Moreover, A deposition along the cerebral vessels alters their
tonicity and triggers some of the cerebrovascular deficits. Furthermore, its accumulation disrupts
intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis which ultimately reduces neuronal Ca2+ buffering capacity and
increases excitotoxicity outcomes. Also, A peptides may fold in different ways and show a
prion-like pathology in the brain of AD patients.

Experiencing anxiety, fear and stress is considered as a normal part of life but when these acute
emotional reactions become more frequent or chronic, they can significantly interfere with daily
activities.
Chronic stress is a pathological state that is caused by prolonged activation of the normal acute
physiological stress response, which can wreak havoc on immune, metabolic and cardiovascular
system and leads to degeneration of the hippocampus part of brain.
There is an extensive overlap of the brains neural activity in anxiety, fear and stress which may
explain the link between chronic stress and the development of neuropsychiatric disorders,
including depression and Alzheimers disease. Pathological stress, anxiety and chronic stress are
associated with structural degeneration and impaired functioning of the hippocampus which may
account for the increased risk of developing neuropsychiatric disorders including depression and
dementia.
My review suggests that an anxiety and stress play an important role in dementia. Review also
suggests that stress induced damage to the hippocampus is not completely irreversible.

produced by CCl4 and paracetamol, while chronic liver damage was induced by alcohol. Physical
parameter (liver weight and wet liver volume), biochemical parameters (serum AST, ALT, ALP,
albumin, total protein, direct and total bilirubin levels) and histology of liver were performed to
assess the hepatoprotective activity. CCl4, paracetamol and alcohol administration resulted in
significant elevation of rat liver weight and liver volume, serum AST, ALT, ALP, direct bilirubin
and total bilirubin levels, while albumin and total protein were found to be decreased compared
to normal group. Pretreatment of with silymarin, ALTB and AQTB significantly prevented the
physical and biochemical changes induced by these hepatotoxins. Histopathology of liver
confirmed our finding as the treatment with the extracts resulted in minor liver cell damage

In the domain of health, one important challenge is the efficient delivery of drugs in the body
using non-toxic nanocarriers. Most of the existing carrier materials show poor drug loading
(usually less than 5wt% of the transported drug versus the carrier material) and/or rapid release
of the proportion of the drug that is simply adsorbed (or anchored) at the external surface of the
nanocarrier. In this context, porous hybrid solids, with the ability to tune their structures and
porosities for better drug interactions and high loadings, are well suited to serve as nanocarriers
for delivery and imaging applications. Here we show that specific non-toxic porous iron(III)based metalorganic frameworks with engineered cores and surfaces, as well as imaging
properties, function as superior nanocarriers for efficient controlled delivery of challenging
antitumoural and retroviral drugs (that is, busulfan, azidothymidine triphosphate, doxorubicin or

Plants are considered as a richest source of therapeutic products in many traditional cultures and
are also becoming popular in modern society. Moreover, due to the continuous development of
bacterial resistance to synthetic antibiotics, natural products are increasingly in demand because
of its greater availability and lesser side effects. Taking this into consideration, the ethanol and
aqueous extracts of Cannabis sativa and Datura inoxia were prepared to evaluate its inhibitory
effect using agar well diffusion assay against the clinical strains of Staphylococcus aureus,
Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from urine and pus. Ethanolic extract of
both plants were found effective against gram positive as well as gram negative strains, of which
strains of Staphylococcus aureus were found inhibited with greater zone of inhibition compared
to Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Crude ethanolic extract of the plants were

prolonged half-life, higher stability, water solubility, lower immunogenicity and antigenicity and
specific targeting to tissue or cells. Polymers are used as carriers in polymeric
prodrugs/macromolecular prodrugs for the delivery of drugs, proteins targeting moieties, and
imaging agents.
The polymeric prodrug can be regarded as drug delivery systems that exhibit
their therapeutic activities by means of releasing smaller therapeutic drug molecules from a
polymer chain molecule for a prolonged period of time which result in enhanced
pharmacokinetic behavior by increasing the t1/2, bioavilability, and hence prolonged
pharmacological action. The potential of the polymer drug conjugates have already been proved
by success of many products in the market for the treatment of different diseases.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) a lentivirus, continues to be a major health problem
having claimed more than 34 million lives so far. The virus infects vital cells of human immune
system, the helper T cells (or CD4+ T cells), thus disturbing the CD4+/CD8+ T-cell ratio. With
antiretroviral therapy, people with HIV have increased life span, but there is an urgent need to
study mechanism of latent infection and reservoirs of infection. In the present work we tried to
analyze the envelop protein of 30 different strains of HIV. The gene ontology of HIV states that
the envelop protein is the main protein for the virus entry into the host cell. It fuses virus
membrane with hosts endosome membrane and plasma membrane. The sequences of envelop
proteins of HIV were retrieved from the proteome section of Uniprot database
(http://www.uniprot.org/). The sequences were parsed and subjected to a perl programming code
for calculation of carbon atom content in them. The range of carbon atom for envelop protein
was from 31.51% to 32.02%. This clearly indicates that nature tends to maintain a very specific
threshold of carbon atom for the envelope proteins. This benchmark could be further used for the

The present study was carried out to evaluate the Anti-nephrolithiatic Activity of Desmodium
gangeticum on ethylene glycol induced nephrolithiasis in rats.Nephrolithiasis in male rats was
produced by inducing ethylene glycol 0.75% (v/v) with drinking water to give calcium oxalate
crystals. The hydroalcoholic Desmodium gangeticum plant extract (DGPE) orally at 200 and 400
mg/kg was administered along with ethylene glycol for 28 days. On 28 day, 24 h urine sample
was collected from individual rats and used for estimation of urine volume, pH and number of
calcium oxalate crystals. The serum sodium, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, total calcium,
BUN, uric acid and creatinine were estimated in each animal. The plasma was used for the
estimation of MDA. The paraffin kidney sections were prepared to observe the histological
changes.
The lithiasis control had significant changes in levels of urine volume, pH and number of
calcium oxalate crystals, the significant increase was observed in serum sodium, phosphorus,
total calcium, BUN, uric acid and creatinine (stone promoters), decrease in potassium and
magnesium (stone inhibitors) levels and increase in plasma MDA level when compared to
normal. The paraffin kidney sections show significant histopathological changes. The treatment
of DGPE at 200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg doses, significantly changed the levels of urine volume,
pH and number of calcium oxalate crystals, decreased the levels of liver function parameters,
stone promoters, and stone inhibitors and also in MDA levels when compared with lithiasis
control, in EG induced nephrolithiasis after 28 days.
The DGPE at the dose of 400 mg/kg, found to be more effective in decreasing nephrolithiasis,
regeneration of renal tissues and liver damage in male rats.
Keywords: Nephrolithiasis, Desmodium gangeticum, Ethylene glycol.

A high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) method for the simultaneous

quantitative determination of gallic acid and quercetin in methanolic fractions of Limonia
acidissima L. fruits was developed for the first time in this species. Methanol was found to be
best for highest possible recovery of target analytes. For achieving good separation, a mobile
phase of toluene: ethyl acetate: formic acid (5:4:1, v/v/v) was used. The densitometric
determination was carried out at 310 & 254nm in reflection/absorption mode. The calibration
curves were linear in the range of 100-600 ng per spot for gallic acid and quercetin.
The methanolic fractions of Limonia acidissima L. fruits showed the presence of gallic acid
(0.07%) and quercetin (0.14%). The proposed method is simple, precise, specific, accurate, less
time consuming and cost effective. The statistical analysis of data obtained proves that the
method is reproducible and selective and can be used for routine analysis of reported phenolic
compounds in crude drug and extracts. The simultaneous quantification of these compounds has
not yet been reported in Limonia acidissima L., which may be utilized for the proper
standardization of the drug.

Natural Antioxidants
Ankan Rastogi, Musab Rafi, Himanshu Jaiswal
The constant exposure of the skin to oxidative stress results in damage to cellular DNA and cell
membrane lipids and proteins. To combat this problem, the skin contains a number of
antioxidants that protect against oxidative injury. However, these cutaneous antioxidants can be
depleted by sun exposure and environmental insults, resulting in an overload of oxidation
products. Thus, topical antioxidants that replenish the antioxidant capacity of the skin have the
potential to prevent oxidative damage. A number of natural antioxidant ingredients also have
anti-inflammatory properties, and can be used in the treatment of oxidative damage such as
photo-aging and perhaps even skin cancer. This article summarizes the active components,
pharmacologic properties, and clinical effectiveness of a number of natural antioxidant
ingredients including soy, mushroom extracts, teas, Coffee Arabica (Coffee Berry), Pinus
pinaster (Pycnogenol), and Poly-podium leucotomos. Recent clinical trials suggest that these
compounds have promising efficacy in the topical treatment of oxidative stress-induced
dermatoses.

Post translational modifications (PTM) are the modifications made to the protein after or during
the protein synthesis. PTM occurs on the N or C terminal of protein or on the amino acid side
chains. These are important for cell signalling and functioning. PTM involves addition of
functional groups like isoprenoid, lipoate, acetyl group, alkyl group and many more. One
amongst all these is glycosylation, addition of a glycosyl group to protein. There are basically
two types of glycosylation N-liked glycosylation and C-linked glycosylation. In the present
work we have studied the human lipase enzyme having glycosylation as the modification. All the
sequences of lipase enzyme were retrieved from the Uniprot database and were subjected to
atomic level sequence analysis. The carbon content of the sequence were calculated using a perl
script and was subjected to statistical analysis. The carbon content of the proteins having Nlinked glycosylation was ranging from 31.36% to 32.91%, where as the carbon content of the Olinked glycosylated proteins was 31.31% to 31.76%. This clearly demarks that nature tends to
have a threshold of carbon content for deciding the type of glycosylation in proteins.
Keywords carbon, glycosylation, post translational modification.

The word "yoga" derives from the Sanskrit root yuj ("to yoke") which means "to join" or "unite.
Basically it is the "union of the individual atma (soul) with Paramatma (Supreme being), the
universal soul." This can be defined as union with the Divine by integration of body, mind, and
spirit. The people find out they are always in relaxed, calm, charming and attractive. Weight
loss, a strong and flexible body, glowing beautiful skin, peaceful mind, good health whatever
you may be looking for, yoga has it on offer. However, very often, yoga is only partially
understood as being limited to asanas (yoga poses). As such, its benefits are only perceived to be
at the body level and we fail to realize the immense benefits yoga offers in uniting the body,
mind and breath. When you are in harmony, the journey through life is calmer, happier and more
fulfilling. As well as they were having fitness and power of finding solutions of difficult
problems. In current poster different position of yoga have been discussed.
Key word: Yoga, Atma, Union, Divine, Asanas.

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is potentially lethal life-threatening infection of skin and soft tissues.
Epidemic necrosis of the subcutaneous tissue and the fascia characterizes NF. Cellulitis is the
early presentation which appears first.In the early stages of NF the skin stays intact; this escort to
a deceptive benign mien. A wide variety of microbes causes NF. Trauma is typically followed by
this infection, albeit the urge scorn may be as trivial asan insect bite or a scrape. Hallmark sign
seen in NF is of severe local pain which is out of proportion to the size and type of wound. Often
caused by group of streptococcus virulent and toxin producing bacteria.Bacteria can be aerobic,
anaerobic, or mixed flora .Benign soft tissue infection often causes initial misinterpretation of
NF. The time to surgical debridement is the most important variable influencing mortality.
Exquisitely tender, red, and hot appearance of skin is perceived. Thus, clinical suspicions at high
degree is mandatory to avert consequences of potential disastrous. To evaluate patients with NF
disease orthopaedic surgeons are often distressed. The key to the treatment of this serious, often
life-threatening infection is auspicious diagnosis, broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy, and
intrusive surgical debridement of affected tissue. Increase in immunocompromised patients with
diabetes mellitus, cancer, alcoholism, vascular insufficiencies, organ transplants, HIV infection,
or neutropenia remits rise in frequency of NF.A exiguous manifest perceived NF syndrome are:Type I, or polymicrobial, Type II, or group A streptococcal, Type III gas gangrene, or clostridialmyonecrosis. The intent of this paper is to upsurge the knowledge and perceptive of NF.
