Abstract:
Novel heteroanthracycline antitumor drugs were designed based on structure activity relationship studies and known mechanisms of drug action. Their preparation required the development of a general synthetic approach.<br>After extensive studies, three methodologies were developed for the general synthetic plan. The first method involved photoenolisation of 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde and SO$ sb2$ entrapment of the o-quinodimethane to give 4,7-dimethoxy-1-hydroxy-1,3-dihydrobenzo(2,3-c) thiophene-2,2-dioxide.

Abstract:
Background: Exosomes are extracellular vesicles (EVs) that produced in the endosomal compartment of most eukaryotic cells, and have observed increasing attentions over the past decades. They play important roles in cell- to-cell communications, they can carry varieties of substances, like proteins, nucleic acids and lipids, to the target cells they encounter. These cargos could influence the function of recipient cells. This novel mode of intercellular communication is found to be of critical importance to many cellular activities. However, exosomes are involved in various diseases processes.

Abstract:
<p>Leonotis leonorus and Mentha longifolia are two herbs commonly used in South Africa, mostly in oral liquid dosage forms. Several disadvantages are associated with these traditional dosage forms which can perhaps be remedied by using an appropriate oral solid dosage form, provided the actual plant material in the latter still resemble, as closely as possible, the traditionally used material and provide products of suitable pharmaceutical quality. The objectives of this study were to prepare and evaluate the pharmaceutical suitability of the freeze-dried aqueous extracts of Leonotis Leonorus

This thesis is concerned with the design of organometallic half sandwich complexes which can catalyse the conversion of oxidised coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide to its reduced form. The coenzyme pair NAD+/NADH is involved in many biological processes, such as regulation of the redox balance, and DNA repair. Disturbance of the NAD+/NADH ratio can lead to cell death. In particular, cancer cells are under constant oxidative stress and therefore might be more susceptible to changes in the NAD+/NADH levels.

Abstract:
The abundant nuclear enzyme poly (ADP-ribose)polymerase (P ARP) catalyses the formation of long homopolymeric chains of ADP-ribose, utilising NAD+ as a substrate, as the immediate cellular response to DNA damage. PARP recognises a damaged section of DNA and initiates polymer synthesis, which is believed to act as a signal to effect the repair of the lesion. A selective, potent PARP inhibitor could block the recognition, and hence repair, of DNA damage induced by cancer chemotherapy. Since increased DNA repair is regarded as a mechanism whereby tumour cells can become resistant to treatment, PA
