The design of new drug candidates that combine anthelmintic and antioxidant actions in one molecule offers a beneficial approach in the treatment of the tissue damages, immune system dysfunction and oxidative stress caused by trichinellosis.
The incorporation of a hydroxyl group in the hydrazide part of a parent molecule which relates to better antioxidant effect in most of the studied systems is associated with higher IC values in all cytotoxicity experiments and relates to the cytoprotective effect against N-methyl-D-aspartate-induced excitotoxicity in SH-SY5Y human neuronal cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
