The aim of the present study is to synthesize new metal complexes of 6-methyl-2-thiouracil and 6-propyl-2-thiouracil, elucidate their structures, and investigate their biological properties. All metal complexes were obtained after mixing water soluti...

This study investigates the cytotoxic properties of metal complexes incorporating thio-uracil derivatives, specifically 2,4-dithiouracil and 6-propyl-2-thiouracil. The research focuses on the cytotoxic effects of Cu(II) and Pd(II) complexes with 6-pr...

Pharmaceutical multicomponent solids have proved to efficiently modulate the physicochemical properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients. In this context, polyphenols are interesting coformers for designing pharmaceutical cocrystals due to their...

The thionamide antithyroid agents were discovered largely through observations carried out by various researchers in the 1940s that found that sulfhydryl-containing substances were goitrogenic in animals. Prof. Edwin B. Astwood started using these dr...

Houttuynia cordata Thunb. holds a longstanding reputation as a traditional folk remedy in East Asia, where it has been employed to treat a variety of inflammatory conditions, nephritis, hepatitis and cancer. Despite its extensive use, there exists a...

This study explores the formation and properties of new complexes involving gallium(III) and thiouracil derivatives—2-thiouracil (TU), 6-methyl-2-thiouracil (MTU), 6-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU), 5-carboxy-2-thiouracil (CTU), and 6-methoxymethyl-2...

Τhyreostats (TSs) are veterinary drugs used in livestock farming for fattening. Their administration is banned in the European Union since 1981, and their monitoring for food quality and safety control requires sensitive and confirmatory methods....

Hyperthyroidism is the result of uncontrolled overproduction of the thyroid hormones. One of the mostly used antithyroid agents is 6-n-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU). The previously solved X-ray crystal structure of the PTU bound to mammalian lactoperoxid...

5-Alkyl-6-(substituted benzyl)-2-thiouracils 3a,c were reacted with (2-chloroethyl) diethylamine hydrochloride to afford the corresponding 2-(2-diethylamino)ethylthiopyrimidin- 4(3H)-ones 4a,b. Reaction of 3a–c with N-(2-chloroethyl)pyrrolidine hydro...

Hypothyroidism compromises the testicular redox status and is associated with reduced sperm quality and infertility in men. In this regard, studies have demonstrated the antioxidant potential of kisspeptin in reproductive and metabolic diseases. In t...

Alcoholic beverage consumption plays an important role in European culture, and in many contexts drinking alcohol is socially acceptable and considered part of the diet. Understanding the determinants of alcohol preference and consumption is importan...
