AB  - Context: Polyphenols and flavonoids in artichoke leaf tincture (ALT) protect cells against oxidative damage. Objectives: We examined ALT effects on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage and lipid profiles in rat plasma and gene expression in rat aorta [haemeoxygenase-1 (HO1), haemeoxygenase-2 (HO2), NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX-4), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2)]. Materials and methods: Eighteen male Wistar albino rats were divided into three groups (n=6/group): The control group (CG) was fed with standard pellet chow for 11 weeks; the AD group was fed for a similar period of time with pellet chow supplemented with 2% cholesterol, 3% sunflower oil and 1% sodium cholate. The ADA group was fed with pellet chow (for 1 week), the atherogenic diet (see above) for the following 4 weeks and then with ALT (0.1 mL/kg body weight) and atherogenic diet for 6 weeks. According to HPLC analysis, the isolated main compounds in ALT were chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, isoquercitrin and rutin. Results: Normalized HO-1 [0.11 (0.04-0.24)] and MCP-1 [0.29 (0.21-0.47)] mRNA levels and DNA scores [12.50 (4.50-36.50)] were significantly lower in the ADA group than in the AD group [0.84 (0.35-2.51)], p = 0.021 for HO-1 [0.85 (0.61-3.45)], p = 0.047 for MCP-1 and [176.5 (66.50-221.25)], p = 0.020 for DNA scores. HO-1 mRNA was lower in the ADA group than in the CG group [0.30 (0.21-0.71), p = 0.049]. Conclusions: Supplementation with ALT limited the effects of the atherogenic diet through reduced MCP-1 expression, thereby preventing oxidative damage.

AB  - A quantitative structure-selectivity relationships of series of structurally diverse α 1 -adrenergic antagonists was performed by using counter-propagation neural network (CP-ANN). The theoretical molecular descriptors have been calculated and selected using CODESSA program. The results obtained for a highly non-congeneric set of molecules have confirmed the potential of use of CP-ANN approach in prediction of relative activity (selectivity) of α 1 -adrenergic antagonists.

AB  - A quantitative structure-activity relationship study with respect to selectivity for alpha(1) adrenoreceptor subtypes (alpha(1a), alpha(1b) and alpha(1d)) of a wide series of structurally heterogeneous alpha(1) adrenoreceptor antagonists has been performed. A large variety of molecular descriptors have been calculated and then analyzed by a heuristic method. The orthogonalization of the descriptors has been applied to build the QSAR equations. Ad hoc defined shape descriptors calculated by the Connolly algorithm with respect to reference supermolecules have also been considered in the rationalization of the mechanism of the activity of the ligands acting as antagonists on all three subtypes of alpha(1) adrenoreceptors.
