There is growing interest in the evaluation of drugs (prescription only medicines and over-
the-counter medicines) as antioxidant prophylactics. Although free radical mechanism in …

Many 1, 4‐dihydropyridines (DHPs) possess redox properties. In this review DHPs are
surveyed as protectors against oxidative stress (OS) and related disorders, considering the …

It has been suggested that reactive oxygen species may be involved in the regulation of
vascular tone. However, the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated. The present …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the trophic transfer of the β-blocker propranolol (PRP)
in an experimental aquatic food chain involving the green algae Scenedesmus obliquus, the …

We studied the antioxidant effects of nine calcium antagonists (nisoldipine, benidipine,
nilvadipine, felodipine, nicardipine; nitrendipine, nifedipine, verapamil, and diltiazem) by …

Background: Heavy alcohol consumption from either long‐term misuse or binge drinking is
associated with poor cardiac contractility, mitochondrial dysfunction, and ventricular …

Recently, increasing evidence suggests that the antihypertensive drug nifedipine acts as a
protective agent for endothelial cells, and that the activity is unrelated to its calcium channel …

A series of eight commercial C-4 substituted 1, 4-dihydropyridines and other synthesized
related compounds were tested for direct potential scavenger effect towards alkylperoxyl …

The 1, 4‐dihydropyridine nifedipine is frequently used in the therapy of hypertension and
heart failure. In addition, nifedipine has been shown to exert distinct anti‐arteriosclerotic …

A series of C4-substituted 1, 4-dihydropyridines (DHP) with either secondary or tertiary
nitrogen in the dihydropyridine ring were synthesized. All of these compounds together with …
