[Activities of molecules similar to carboxyhydroxamic acid chromone-2 (sodium salt) in experimental mercury chloride poisoning; importance of the chromone cycle].

The carbo-hydroxamic-2 chromone acid (sodium salt) shows a higher protective action in vivo than in vitro against mercury chloride induced intoxications. The higher effect observed in vivo might be due to the activity itself of the chromone cycle which added up to that of the carbo-hydroxamic acid function. This latter alone appears in vitro. The antihyaluronidasic properties of this protective agent allow it to prevent the toxic substances to be diffused.

[Synthesis and evaluation of the aldose reductase inhibitory activity of new diaryl pyridazine-3-ones].

It has been possible to prepare from 4,6-diaryl pyridazinones a series of derivatives substituted in the 2-position by chains of various lengths bearing a carboxylic acid function. Pig lens aldose reductase inhibitory activity was evaluated for all compounds. N-acetic acid derivative 3c with a chlorine atom on the phenyl nucleus at the 6-position on the pyridazin ring was the most active pyridazinone with an IC50 value of 1.2 x 10(-5) M. Furthermore, it has been shown that lipophilicity and spatial configuration of the synthesized compounds took a prominent part on enzymatic activity.

[In vitro enzyme inhibitory and in vivo cardioprotective activities of hibiscus (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.)].

A crude hydroalcoholic extract from Hibiscus sabdariffa L. calyces showed in vitro an appreciable enzyme-inhibiting activity towards the Angiotensin I Converting Enzyme (ACE), attributable to flavones, but weak inhibiting activities towards elastase, trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin. The angioprotective activity in vivo, also important, was due to flavones and anthocyanins.
