Novel fluorescent chalcone-based ligands at human histamine H(3) receptors (hH(3)R) have been designed, synthesized, and characterized. Compounds described are non-imidazole analogs of ciproxifan with a tetralone motif. Tetralones as chemical precursors and related fluorescent chalcones exhibit affinities at hH(3)R in

Silybin (SIL) and 2,3-dehydrosilybin (DHS) are constituents of milk thistle extract (silymarin) applied in the treatment of cirrhosis, hepatitis, and alcohol-induced liver disease. The molecular mechanism of their action is usually connected with antioxidant action. However, despite experimental and theoretical
