Evaluation of nitrocatechol bearing cyclic chalcones and related analogues as dual monoamine oxidase and catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitors
(North-West University (South-Africa), 2020)Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the leading causes of disability in the world. A better understanding of the aetiology of this disorder will lead to better medications, and would improve the quality of life for millions ... -
Synthesis and biological evaluation of 7-azaindole-based chalcones and related compounds as protein kinase inhibitors
(North-West University (South-Africa), 2021)Protein phosphorylation is a major molecular mechanism through which proteins’ functions are regulated. Protein phosphorylation occurs through protein kinases, and it consists of the transfer of a phosphate group from a ... -

The synthesis and evaluation of dual inhibitors of monoamine oxidase and catechol-O-methyltransferase
(North-West University (South Africa), Potchefstroom Campus, 2018)Parkinson’s disease is the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer’s disease. Parkinson’s disease is a debilitating, incurable, bradykinetic disorder which seriously inhibits a patient’s quality ... -
Synthesis and evaluation of nitrocatechol derivatives of chalcone as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase and catechol-O-methyltransferase
(North-West University (South-Africa). Potchefstroom Campus, 2019)Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological movement disorder that worsens with age. Parkinson’s disease is still the most frequent neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer’s disease. There is no known cause of ... -
Synthesis and in vitro antimalarial activity of novel chalcone derivatives
(2014)Malaria is endemic in 106 countries worldwide. This disease is caused by a parasite from the genus Plasmodium. Of the five species that infect humans, Plasmodium falciparum is the most virulent, with over three billion ...
