Functional outcome and patient satisfaction following LASIK surgery

New coordination compounds of some selected metal ions from the first and second transition metals series with a Schiff base were synthesized and characterized. The Schiff base is derived from 4‐Aminoantipyrine and 3‐(hydroxyimino) butan‐2‐one. The compounds were characterized by different analysis tools like; elemental analysis, mass spectra, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) as well as electronic spectra, magnetic measurements, molar conductance and thermal analysis technique. All complexes were formed with 1:1 (metal: ligand) stoichiometry except Mn (II) where 1:2 (Mn: ligand) is formed. Schiff base ligand interacted as a tridentate ligand by using the nitrogen atoms of the imine and the oximato groups and the carbonyl oxygen atom as donor groups with all studied metal ions except copper (II) and manganese (II) where the carbonyl oxygen is not shared in the coordination. These complexes show various physicochemical properties. X‐ray powder diffraction shows different crystal systems; Cd (II) complex: hexagonal, Cu (II) complex: orthorhombic; and [Ni (II), Mn (II), Rh (III) & Pd (II)] complexes: monoclinic. All compounds showed potent cytotoxicity against the growth of human liver cancer cell lines. The square planar Pd (II) complex was more active than those of octahedral geometries of all other synthesized complexes. Cd (II) complex has the highest microbial growth inhibition than the rest of the prepared complexes. The docking active sites interactions were evaluated using the selected proteins EGFR tyrosine kinase and protein crystal structure of GlcN‐O‐P synthase. in vitro antioxidant assay revealed potent free radical scavenging activity of the three synthesized Cu (II), Pd (II) and Rh (III) complexes that exceeded the standard ascorbic acid. Pd (II) complex shows the most significant inhibition denaturation percent.

“…Also the magnetic moment of Cu (II) ‐AEPD chelate (2.00 B.M.) falls within the range normally observed for octahedral geometry for Cu (II) complexes, but slightly higher than the expected value 1.73 B.M. this expected for one unpaired electron, which offers possibility of an octahedral geometry .…”

New expected biologically active complexes for some of the first (Mn (II), Ni (II), Cu (II) and Zn (II)) and second (Rh (III) and Cd (II)) transitional metals rows with N‐(2‐Aminoethyl)‐1,3‐propanediamine as a ligand (AEPD)have been synthesized. All synthesized complexes were formed with 1:1 (metal: AEPD) stoichiometry except Ni (II) 1:2 (Ni: AEPD). The compounds were characterized by different analysis tools such as; elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), 1H‐NMR, mass spectra, thermal analysis, electronic spectra, magnetic measurement and molar conductance techniques. AEPD ligand interacted with all metal ions as tridentate ligand by using the nitrogen atoms. On the other hand, density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to confirm the optimized geometrical structures for both AEPD and its complexes. Furthermore, coordination compounds were screened for their potential antibacterial activities against six pathogenic bacteria as well as one kind of fungi in comparison to standard antibiotics by agar well diffusion method. The results show that most of the complexes exhibit antibacterial and antifungal activities against these organisms. Rh (III)‐AEPD complex exhibited the strongest antibacterial effect followed by the Cd (II) complex but as antifungal agents Cd (II) was the first and the second was Rh (III). Also, the anticancer activity was screened for these metal complexes against growth of human liver cancer HEPG2 tumor cell line and this inhibition activity of Cd (II) chelate was noticed to be more active with lowest IC50 than that of all other synthesized complexes. Unfortunately, Mn (II) and Rh (III) chelates lacked anticancer activity. The docking active sites interactions were evaluated using the selected protein for anticancer activity. Finally, antioxidant activity was studied. Mn (AEPD) showed maximum activity followed by complex of Rh (III).

“…due to the magnetic behavior of one unpaired electron, but this value was also present in the normal range of the hexa‐coordinate Cu (II) complexes. [ 36 ] The experimental value for the vanadyl‐NBM complex was in the range of 1.79 B.M. with paramagnetic behavior.…”

Novel Schiff base was synthesized from condensation reaction of metformin with [4-(Diethylamino) benzaldehyde (NBM). Different metal complexes were prepared using Pd(II), Pt(II), Cu(II) and V(IV) metal ions. All complexes showed the non-electrolytic behavior. So, the expectedThe cytotoxicity of (NBM) Schiff base and its metal complexes on human cancer cell line, MCF-7, was investigated. V(IV) and Cu (II) complexes showed potential blood-glucose lowering effect higher than the commercial metformin drug. VO(IV) complex has superior antioxidant activity more than the other synthesized compounds and the standard ascorbic acid. Molecular docking investigation proved the presence of interesting interactions between all synthesized compounds with the active site amino acids of EGFR tyrosine kinase (anticancer activity). The molecular docking of metal complexes observed effective inhibition for the specific mTOR protein that is expected to aid the growth of the COVID-19 virus.
