Synthesis of new 6H-indolo[2,3-b] [1,8]naphthyridines and their specific inhibition of benzodiazepine receptor.
No full textSome 3-amino- and 3-hydroxy-8-halosubstituted 6H-indolo[2,3-b] [1,8]naphthyridines were synthesized and tested for their affinity for the benzodiazepine receptor in bovine cortical membranes. All prepared compounds were more active than the corresponding 8-unsubstituted derivatives. Moreover, among these compounds the 8-chloroindolonaphthyridines were clearly the most potent
Synthesis of 1,8 - naphthyridine derivatives: potential antihypertensive agents. Part VII
No full textA series of 2-(carbethoxypiperazinyl)- and 2-piperazinyl-1,8-naphthyridine derivatives, variously substituted, have been synthesized and pharmacologically investigated for their antihypertensive activity. Some of them exhibited a significant and prolonged decrease of the mean arterial pressure (MAP) on spontaneously hypertensive rats. For this series of compounds, on the basis of the pharmacological results obtained, no structure-activity relationship can be deduced at this time. Moreover, the most active and representative compounds 11b, 12a and 16b were investigated by means of in vitro pharmacological functional studies and in vivo, as diuretic agents, to determine a possible mechanism of the antihypertensive activity, which is unknown for the momen
Stereoselective synthesis and beta-blocking activity of substituted (E)- and (Z)- 4(1H) - [1- (3 - alkylamino - 2 - hydroxypropyl) oximino - 2,3 - dihydro - 1,8 - naphthyridine. Potential antihypertensive agents. Part VI
No full textThe synthesis of R-(+)- and S-(-)-isomers of substituted (E)- and (Z)-4(1H)-[1-(3-alkylamino-2-hydroxypropyl)-oximino]-2,3-dihydro-1,8-naphthyridine, in enantiomeric pure form, is described. These compounds showed an interesting beta-blocking activity. Generally, the (S)-enantiomers possess a slighthly higher affinity for beta receptors than the (R)-enantiomers
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
