Abstract
Nitrogen-containing five-membered heterocyclics play a vital role in pharmaceuticals as well as medicinal chemistry. Pyrazolines play a significant role among other heterocycles because of their therapeutic and pharmacological properties. 2-Pyrazolines displayed a wide variety of biological activities such as anticancer, antiepileptic, anti-aids, antimalarial, insecticidal, antitubercular, etc. and they are used as pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and also used in agrochemical research and analytical chemistry. 2-Pyrazolines are well-known brightening agents used in chemosensor. They have excellent fluorescent properties and are widely used in synthetic fibers, dyes, photography and hole transporting materials. A number of preparation methods of pyrazolines have also been investigated by several research groups. In this review, most of the synthesized and reported nitrogen-containing five-membered heterocycles including 2-pyrazolines, their pharmaceutical evaluation and structure-reactivity are discussed.
Keywords: Biological activities, brightening agents, chalcones, fluorescence, heterocycles, 2-pyrazolines.

Discovery of Lead compounds targeting transcriptional regulation
Transcriptional regulation plays key physiological functions in body growth and development. Transcriptional dysregulation is one of the important biomarkers of tumor genesis and progression, which is involved in regulating tumor cell processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Additionally, it plays a pivotal role in angiogenesis and promotes tumor ...read more
Induction of cell death in cancer cells by modulating telomerase activity using small molecule drugs
Telomeres are distinctive but short stretches present at the corners of chromosomes that aid in stabilizing chromosomal makeup. The resynthesis of telomeres is supported by the activity of reverse transcriptase ribonucleoprotein complex telomerase. There is no telomerase activity in human somatic cells, but the stem cells and germ cells undergo ...read more
