Abstract
Pyrazoline is an important five membered nitrogen heterocycle, which has been extensively researched upon. The ring is quite stable and has inspired chemists to carry out various structural variations in the ring. This has propelled the development of distinct pyrazolines with an array of pharmacological activities viz. anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antimicrobial, anticancer, antidepressant etc. The review aims at highlighting this pharmacological diversity of pyrazolines. The review is a gist of latest work done describing the pharmacological aspects and potential of pyrazoline ring.

Drugs and mitochondria
Mitochondria play a central role in the life and death of cells. They are not merely the center for energy metabolism but are also the headquarters for different catabolic and anabolic processes, calcium fluxes, and various signaling pathways. Mitochondria maintain homeostasis in the cell by interacting with reactive oxygen-nitrogen species ...read more
Mitochondria as a Therapeutic Target in Metabolic Disorders
Mitochondria are the primary site of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production in mammalian cells. Moreover, these organelles are an important source of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in virtually any nucleated cell type. The modulation of a myriad of cellular signaling pathways depends on the mitochondrial physiology. Mitochondrial dysfunction is observed ...read more
