Drug development has multiple stages of drug designing and evaluation in pharmacological models for desired clinical outcomes. The unmet need to completely eradicate cancer and leishmaniasis drives researchers to continue the struggle for safer and effective medicines. Along these lines, a library of 78 organic synthetic compounds including organotin (IV) (39), indoline (15), hydrazide (4), diazole (2) and ferrocene (18) derivatives were studied against Leishmania and cancer using in vitro, in silico and in vivo models. Cytotoxicity against DU145, THP-1 and isolated lymphocytes was shown by 36 (> 70%), 21 (> 50-70%), and 18 (least IC50 2.23 µg/ml) organotins and 1 (75.72%), 4 (50.2-82.3%) and 2 (least IC50 13 µg/ml) indolines, respectively. Only 5 (50.08-81.7%) hydrazides/diazoles and 9 (least IC50 6.66 µg/ml) ferrocenes were cytotoxic to THP-1 cells and lymphocytes, respectively. A total of 38 (least MIC 0.0122 µg/disc) organotins, 1 (least MIC 3.125 µg/disc) indoline, 3 (least MIC 1.5625 µg/disc) diazole/hydrazides and 17 (least MIC 0.74 µg/disc) ferrocenes demonstrated protein kinase (PK) inhibition activity in Streptomyces 85E. Next, in silico analysis of selected 36 organotin (IV) compounds, comparatively more cytotoxic to cancer cells, showed that these were druglike to mid structures, have low to high blood brain barrier penetration and human intestinal absorption (caco2 cell permeability 17.6-35.09 nm/sec) and were metabolized by phase I and phase II reactions. Organotins were also predicted to target multiple enzymes, transcription factors, receptors, transporters, ion channels and other proteins. Subsequently, in vitro cytotoxicity analysis in prostate cancer cell lines and fibroblasts provided least IC50 values of 0.17 µM (PC3M) and 1.67 µM (fibroblasts) for triphenyltin (IV); 0.63 µM (PC3M) and 0.12 µM (fibroblasts) for tributyltin (IV); 0.33 µM (PC3M) and 2.55 µM (fibroblasts) for dibutyltin (IV) and 6.06 µM (PC3M) and 4.29 µM (fibroblasts) for tribenzyltin (IV) compounds after 72 h of treatment. Eventually, in-depth study of two most active compounds namely dibutylstannanediyl (2Z,2’Z)-bis(4(benzylamino)-4-oxobut-2-enoate (Ch-620) and triphenylstannyl 2-(benzylcarbamoyl) benzoate (Ch-319), showed that both compounds were more cytotoxic to prostate cancer and melanoma cells as compared to normal cells, restricted their colony forming capacity and migration, induced cell cycle arrest and caspase mediated apoptosis and disrupted associated regulatory proteins. Ch-620 resulted in phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and ERK1/2, upregulation of PPARα, decreased expression of SMAD4 and ITGB5 and reduced tumor proliferation as observed by proteomics, in vitro and in vivo xenograft studies. Treatment of cancer cells and transgenic Pten knockout mice with Ch-319 downregulated PI3K/Akt signaling associated with elevation of FOXO3a expression. In addition, Ch-319 decreased expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers Ncadherin and Vimentin with concomitant increase in E-cadherin in in vitro. Immunohistochemical examination of tumor sections also depicted reduction of proliferation markers. Moreover, evaluation of 78 compounds against Leishmania tropica kwh showed that 37, 5 and 1 organotin, indoline and ferrocene compounds, respectively inhibited growth of promastigotes. The selected 43 compounds predominantly organotin (IV) derivatives, halted the growth of Leishmania promastigotes partially by producing reactive oxygen species. Antileishmanial activity was reduced by 4.1-6.9 and 1.4-7.96% in triphenyltin (IV), 3.3-14.22 and 6.3-11.2% in tribenzyltin (IV), 5.2-34.38 and 1.838.2% in tributyltin (IV) and 7.9-15.7 and 5.2-15.4% in dibutyltin (IV) compounds in the presence of sodium azide and mannitol, respectively. Indolines and ferrocenes demonstrated antileishmanial activity reduction maximally in the presence of mannitol by 5.3 and 6.22%, respectively. Considering all these results, it is proposed that Ch-319 and Ch-620 have potential to be developed as anticancer agents against prostate cancer. Furthermore, organotin (IV) compounds in particular are also potent antileishmanial agents and detailed analysis on their mechanism is recommended.

دل کے اندر نہ مجھے آنکھ سے باہر سمجھو

دل کے اندر نہ مجھے آنکھ سے باہر سمجھو
میں وہ قطرہ ہوں کہ ہے جس میں سمندر، سمجھو

میں جو حیرت سے ہی تصویر بنی بیٹھی ہوں
میری حیرت کو مرا عکس مکرر سمجھو

ہیں تو آنکھیں ہی مگر بادہ و جام اُن پہ نثار
وہ نظر بھر کے جو دیکھیں اسے ساغر سمجھو

جس کو صحرائوں میں بھٹکے ہوئے رکھتے ہیں عزیز
میں ہوں وہ قطرہ مجھے عین سمندر سمجھو

اشک ہے، قطرہ ہے یا ابر سے ٹوٹا تارا
یہ فضاؔ جو بھی ہے اب تم اسے گوہر سمجھو

غریبوں کی معاشی کفالت میں صحابیات رضی اﷲ عنھن کا کردار

Islamic cardinal precepts include seeking benefaction and patronage of other Muslims. Generally, Islamic history is replete with such munificent and generous personages as were ever geared up to serving humanity, yet the golden era of Islamic history excelled in profusion of such noble persons. When we review the aspect of serving mankind in the life history of the reverend Sahaba (the holy prophet’s disciples), we come to know that they had highly remarkable passions for helping, beneficing, supporting and sustaining their relatives, friends as well as the common run. The level of their charity was so great that they felt felicity and prostrated to Allah in gratitude even after giving away their all possessions and belongings for Allah’s sake only. In fact, the motivation behind this generosity was the attainment of pleasing Allah and the obedience and submission to the holy prophet. They had no iota of worldly voracity or avarice. Therefore, they were ever elated over giving away their assets.

Study of Cosmic Issues in Modified Gauss-Bonnet Theories

This thesis is devoted to study some interesting cosmic issues in the context of modi- ¯ed Gauss-Bonnet theories. Firstly, we explore the instability ranges of a spherically symmetric anisotropic collapsing °uid under expansion-free condition in f(G) grav- ity. We apply the ¯rst order perturbation scheme to the metric components as well as °uid variables and construct the corresponding ¯eld equations for both static as well as perturbed con¯gurations using viable power-law f(G) model. We establish dynamical equations using contracted Bianchi identities to discuss the dynamical in- stability in both Newtonian and post-Newtonian regimes. It is found that instability ranges depend on energy density, anisotropic pressures and Gauss-Bonnet terms but independent of adiabatic index for expansion-free collapsing °uid. Secondly, we generalize f(G) gravity by introducing non-minimal coupling be- tween Gauss-Bonnet invariant and trace of the energy-momentum tensor named as f(G; T) gravity and explore energy conditions for two reconstructed models in the background of homogeneous and isotropic universe. It is found that the massive test particles move along geodesic trajectories due to the presence of extra force originated from non-zero divergence of the energy-momentum tensor. The energy bounds are expressed in terms of deceleration, jerk and snap cosmological parameters. We study energy conditions for reconstructed models corresponding to de Sitter and power-law cosmological background using pressureless °uid and obtain feasible constraints on free parameters. Thirdly, we discuss stability of the Einstein static universe against homogeneous as well as inhomogeneous scalar perturbations in f(G; T) gravity. We investigate sta- bility regions for particular f(G; T) models corresponding to zero as well as non-zero covariant divergence of the energy-momentum tensor. The graphical analysis shows that stable Einstein universe exists for both spatially closed as well as open universe xi xii models against homogeneous and inhomogeneous perturbations for appropriate choice of parameters. Finally, we analyze stability of some cosmic evolutionary models against linear per- turbations in Hubble parameter and energy density of matter distribution in f(G; T) gravity. We establish the ¯eld equations for both general and particular f(G; T) forms in the context of FRW universe model. We apply the reconstruction technique and found that this theory describes the de Sitter universe, power-law solutions as well as phantom/non-phantom eras cosmological backgrounds. We also discuss stability of de Sitter and power-law reconstructed f(G; T) models and ¯nd stable results against linear perturbations.
