Introduction Histamine Type I Receptor Antagonists (H1 blockers) are widely used to mitigate histamine-induced inflammation, particularly in allergic reactions. Histamine, a biogenic amine found in endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle, bronchial smooth muscle, and the hypothalamus, is a key player in these responses. H1 blockers are essential in cough syrups and flu medications and are divided into two Read More

Introduction Heterocyclic derivatives, particularly those containing heteroatoms such as oxygen and nitrogen, represent a significant portion of currently marketed drugs. Among these, the aromatic heterocycle 1,3,4-oxadiazole, characterized by an N=C=O-linkage, stands out due to its remarkable biological activities. These activities include anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, antioxidant, anti-tubercular, antiviral, anti-diabet Read More

The escalating prevalence of lifestyle and microbial diseases poses a significant threat to human well-being, necessitating the discovery and development of novel drugs with distinct modes of action. Addressing this challenge involves employing innovative strategies, and one current approach involves utilizing heterocyclic compounds to synthesize hybrid molecules. These hybrids have resulted from the fusion of two o Read More
