Aqueous solutions of highly stable supramolecular donor-acceptor complexes of chemically nonmodified pristine C(60) fullerene molecules with H(2)O molecules (hydrated C(60) fullerene-C(60)HyFn) and their labile nano-sized clusters were examined for their antioxidant effects on removal of hydroxyl radicals (.OH) and protecting
In Alzheimer's disease (AD), insoluble Aβ42 peptide fragments self-aggregate and form oligomers and fibrils in the brain, causing neurotoxicity. Further, the presence of redox-active metal ions such as Cu2+ enhances the aggregation process through chelation with these Aβ42 aggregates as

The copper(II) complex of coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (CcaH) has been prepared and characterized on the basis of elemental and thermal analysis, IR, Raman, EPR, UV-Vis reflectance and 1H-NMR spectra. A detail analysis of all spectra data is presented with particular emphasis
The chemotherapeutic potential of coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (C-3-COOH) and a series of three hydroxylated coumarin-3-carboxylic acid ligands, namely 6-hydroxy-coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (6-OH-C-3-COOH), 7-hydroxy-coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (7-OH-C-3-COOH) and 8-hydroxy-coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (8-OH-C-3-COOH), along with their corresponding silver-based complexes, namely 6-hydroxycoumarin-3-carboxylatosilver (6-OH-C-COO-Ag), 7-hydroxycoumarin-3-carboxylatosilver (7-OH-C-COO-Ag) and 8-hydroxycoumarin-3-carboxylatosilver
The accumulation of the extracellular β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregates with metal ions in conjunction with reactive oxygen species (ROS) is closely related to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Accounting on Cu ions chelating of our previously designed bifunctional peptide GGHRYYAAFFARR
