G-quadruplex structures of DNA represent a potentially useful target for anticancer drugs. Telomerase enzyme, involved in immortalization of cancer cells is inhibited by stabilization of G-quadruplex at the ends of chromosomes. Anthraquinone and acridone derivatives are promising G-quadruplex ligands as

Fluorescent probe pairs that can be selectively excited in the presence of Trp and Tyr are of great utility in studying conformational changes in proteins. However, the size of these probe pairs can restrict their incorporation to small portions of

A novel, efficient route to biologically and pharmaceutically important o-(dimethylamino)aryl ketones, acridones, acridinium salts, and 1H-indazoles has been developed starting from readily available hydrazones of aldehydes and o-(trimethylsilyl)aryl triflates. The reaction proceeds through arynes under mild conditions, tolerates a wide

Acridones carrying an appropriate substituent at N-10 showed significant fluorescence changes on interacting with ATP in HEPES buffer at pH 7.2. The selectivity and sufficient binding of these probes with ATP could be useful for monitoring of metabolic processes.
The aim of the present study was to improve the cause-effect relationship between toxicant exposure and chironomid mouthpart deformities, by linking induction of mouthpart deformities to contaminated field sediments, metal mixtures and a mutagenic polycyclic aromatic compound metabolite (acridone). Mouthpart
