In the present study, Suzuki-coupling products of remimazolan were synthesized and investigated for anti-neoplastic property against glioma cells. RFMSP treatment for 48 hr suppressed viabilities of U-118MG and U87MG cells in dose dependent manner. Exposure of primary astrocytes to RFMSP at 2-20 μM concentration range minimally affected viabilities. RFMSP treatment at 5 μM doses raised apoptotic cell count to 53.8 ± 2.3% and 48.2 ± 1.8%, respectively in U-118MG and U87MG cells. Treatment of the cells with RFMSP induced nuclear condensation and subsequent fragmentation. In RFMSP treated U-118MG and U87MG cells, NF-κB p65 expression was markedly suppressed compared to the control cells. Additionally, RFMSP treatment decreased the ratio of nuclear to total NF-κB p65 level in both the cell lines. Treatment of U-118MG and U87MG cells with 5 μM RFMSP for 48 hr caused a marked down-regulation in survivin and XIAP levels. Treatment with RFMSP promoted Bax expression and suppressed Bcl-2 level. The caspase-9 and -3 activation was markedly induced by RFMSP treatment in U-118MG and U87MG cells compared to the control cells. Selleckchem GW806742X In summary, the RFMSP synthesized by Suzuki-coupling of RFMSP inhibited glioma cell survival via DNA damage mediated apoptosis. The anti-glioma potential of RFMSP involved down-regulation of NF-κB expression, targeted survivin & XIAP levels and induced caspase activation in glioma cells. Therefore, RFMSP may be studied further as therapeutic agent for the treatment of glioma. Hookah is a tobacco product of Middle Eastern origin; however, its popularity increases in Europe and the US. Despite its frequent use, hookah's potentially detrimental effects are underestimated as a result of the scarcity of the relevant research. Since septoplasty is one of the most commonly performed procedures of otolaryngology practice, we aimed to investigate the impact of hookah consumption on recovery after septoplasty. Patients who underwent septoplasty in Sanliurfa Training and Research Hospital Department of Otolaryngology between January 2017 and December 2019 were divided into four groups based on their history of hookah and cigarette smoking. The patients' prospectively collected data, including demographic features, healing time, and presence or absence of septal perforation during follow-up, were compared between these four groups. The entire cohort included 270 patients. The mean patient age was29.2 ± 5.8 years. One hundred and thirty-two (48.9%) patients were non-smokers, 96 (35.5%) were cigarette smokers, 27 (10%) were hookah smokers and 15 (5.6%) consumed both tobacco products regularly. Mean healing time was 10 days, and septal perforation was encountered in 10 patients (3.7%). A comparison of the groups revealed that cigarette smoking did not impact septal perforation rates (P = .326) but prolonged the healing time. However, hookah smoking with or without cigarette smoking significantly influenced septal perforation rates and healing times. Patients should be questioned about hookah smoking in addition to cigarette smoking before the septoplasty procedure. Patients with a positive history of hookah smoking should be followed closely in terms of delayed healing and increased septal perforation rates.
