Abstract
Pain has a negative impact on public health, reducing quality of life. Unfortunately, current treatments are not fully effective and have adverse effects. Therefore, there is a need to develop new analgesic compounds. Due to promising results regarding the antinociceptive effect of N-(3-(phenylselanyl)prop-2-in-1-yl)benzamide (SePB), this study aimed to evaluate the participation of the dopaminergic and noradrenergic systems in this effect in mice, as well as its toxicity. To this, the antagonists sulpiride (D2/D3 receptor antagonist, 5 mg/kg), SCH-23390 (D1 receptor antagonist, 0.05 mg/kg), prazosin (α1 adrenergic receptor antagonist, 0.15 mg/kg), yohimbine (α2-adrenergic receptors, 0.15 mg/kg) and propranolol (non-selective β-adrenergic antagonist, 10 mg/kg) were administered intraperitoneally to mice 15 min before SePB (10 mg/kg, intragastrically), except for propranolol (20 min). After 26 min of SePB administration, the open field test was performed for 4 min to assess locomotor activity, followed by the tail immersion test to measure the nociceptive response. For the toxicity test, animals received a high dose of 300 mg/kg of SePB. SePB showed an increase in the latency for nociceptive response in the tail immersion test, and this effect was prevented by SCH-23390, yohimbine and propranolol, indicating the involvement of D1, α2 and β-adrenergic receptors in the antinociceptive mechanism of the SePB effect. No changes were observed in the open field test, and the toxicity assessment suggested that SePB has low potential to induce toxicity. These findings contribute to understanding SePB's mechanism of action, with a focus on the development of new alternatives for pain treatment.

Abstract
Herein, we describe a new method for the synthesis of α-carbonyl selenocyanates by reacting triselenium dicyanide (TSD) and styrenes under blue light irradiation and O2 atmosphere. The reactions are triggered by the formation of Se-centered radical species, followed by the addition/oxidation of the styrene π-bond. α-Carbonyl selenocyanates and α-hydroxy selenocyanates were obtained in moderate to excellent yields from aryl- and alkyl-substituted alkenes, respectively. It was demonstrated that α-carbonyl selenocyanates could be used as a synthetic platform in a multicomponent reaction strategy to prepare 2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives, which were evaluated for their photophysical properties. Overall, this new method provides a useful tool for synthesizing α-carbonyl selenocyanates, and demonstrates their potential for use in the synthesis of other compounds, thus giving new synthetic opportunities to construct organic selenocyanate compounds.

Abstract
Pain and inflammation are symptoms of various diseases, and they can be modulated by different pathways, thus highlighting the importance of investigating the therapeutic effects of novel compounds. Previous studies have shown that isatin-thiosemicarbazone exhibits antitumor, antifungal antibacterial and other biological properties. Based on the wide range of biological effects of these compounds, the aim of the present study was to investigate the central nervous system (CNS) performance, and the anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory activity of (Z)-2-(5-nitro-2-oxoindolin-3-ilidene)-N-hydroazinecarbothioamide (PA-Int5) in treated mice. Three doses of PA-Int5 were tested orally (1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 mg/kg) in the nociceptive and inflammatory animal models. Additionally, the potential sedative effects of PA-Int5 (5 mg/kg, oral gavage) were investigated using an open field and rotarod tests, to exclude any possible unspecific effects of the nociceptive assays. Anti-nociceptive activity was assessed using the acetic acid-induced abdominal contortion and formalin tests, whereas anti-inflammatory activity was assessed using a carrageenan-induced paw edema and zymosan-induced air-pouch models. PA-Int5 (5 mg/kg) induced anti-nociceptive activity in the abdominal contortion model. In the formalin test, PA-Int5 (at 2.5 and 5 mg/kg) reduced nociception in the second phase. At the higher dose tested, PA-Int5 did not affect spontaneous locomotion or motor coordination. The data revealed that at all doses tested, the compound significantly reduced paw edema following carrageenan administration. In the zymosan-induced air-pouch model, PA-Int5 potently inhibited leukocyte migration and protein levels at the site of inflammation. When combined, the results revealed, for the first time, that PA-Int5 exhibited anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities, and highlights its potential, as well that of other derivatives, as novel candidates for pain relief.

Abstract
The present review describes the successful application of organoboron compounds in transition-metal-free C-S, C-Se, and C-Te bond formations. We presented studies regarding these C-Chalcogen bond formations using organoboron reagents, such as boronic acids, boronic esters, borate anions, and several sources of chalcogen atoms/moieties. Moreover, a broad range of transition-metal-free approaches to synthesize sulfides, selenides, and tellurides were described using conventional heating methods, which are sometimes green since they use green solvents, safe reagents, among others. Furthermore, protocols using alternative energy sources, including ultrasound, microwave irradiation, photocatalysis, and electrolytic processes, were also shown to be suitable. These protocols were applied to prepare a broad scope of functionalized chalcogenides with high molecular diversity. These studies and their proposed mechanisms were also reported herein in addition to the reuse of reaction promoters.

Abstract
The contribution of oxidative stress has been described in numerous studies as one of the main pathways involved in the pathophysiology of anxiety and its comorbidities, such as chronic pain. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the anxiolytic-like, antiallodynic, and anti-hyperalgesic effects of 3,5-dimethyl-1-phenyl-4-(phenylselanyl)-1H-pyrazole (SePy) in response to acute restraint stress (ARS) in mice through the modulation of oxidative stress and neuroendocrine responses. Mice were restrained for 2 h followed by SePy (1 or 10 mg/kg, intragastrically) treatment. Behavioral, and biochemical tests were performed after further 30 min. The treatment with SePy reversed (i) the decreased time spent and the number of entries in the open arms of the elevated plus-maze apparatus, (ii) the decreased time spent in the central zone of the open field test and the increased number of grooming, (iii) the increased number of marbles buried, (iv) the increased response frequency of Von Frey Hair stimulation, and (v) the decreased latency time to nociceptive response in the hot plate test stress induced by ARS. Biochemically, SePy reversed ARS-induced increased levels of plasma corticosterone, and reversed the ARS-induced alterations in the levels of reactive species, lipid peroxidation, and superoxide dismutase and catalase activities in the prefrontal cortices and hippocampi of mice. Moreover, a molecular docking approach suggested that SePy may interact with the active site of the glucocorticoid receptor. Altogether, these results indicate that SePy attenuated anxiolytic-like behavior, hyperalgesia, and mechanical allodynia while modulating oxidative stress and neuroendocrine responses in stressed mice.

Abstract
An alternative method to prepare 2-organylchalcogenopheno[2,3-b]pyridines was developed by the insertion of chalcogen species (selenium, sulfur or tellurium), generated in situ, into 2-chloro-3-(organylethynyl)pyridines by using the NaBH4 /PEG-400 reducing system, followed by an intramolecular cyclization. It was possible to obtain a series of compounds with up to 93 % yield in short reaction times. Among the synthesized products, 2-organyltelluropheno[2,3-b]pyridines have not been described in the literature so far. Moreover, the compounds 2-phenylthieno[2,3-b]pyridine (3 b) and 2-phenyltelluropheno[2,3-b]pyridine (3 c) exhibited significant antioxidant potential in different in vitro assays. Further studies demonstrated that compound 3 b exerted an antinociceptive effect in acute inflammatory and non-inflammatory pain models, thus indicating the involvement of the central and peripheral nervous systems on its pharmacological action. More specifically, our results suggest that the intrinsic antioxidant property of compound 3 b might contribute to attenuating the nociception and inflammatory process on local injury induced by complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA).

Abstract
The therapeutic effects from Citrus reticulata on painful inflammatory ailments are associated to its flavonoids constituent and phytochemical studies with Citrus genus affirm that the peels have important amounts of it. These bioactive compounds have been a considerable therapeutic source and evaluate potential application of the peel extract is significant. This research aims to investigate the influence of ethanolic crude extract from the peels of Citrus reticulata and its possible mechanism of action in different animal models of pain. The extract reduced hyperalgesia in the second phase of formalin test (vehicle: 501.5 ± 40.0 s; C. reticulata extract 300 mg/kg: 161.8 ± 41.1 s), in the carrageenan model (vehicle at 4th h: 82.5 ± 9.6 %; C. reticulata extract 300 mg/kg at 4th h: 47.5 ± 6.5 %) and in Complete Freund's Adjuvant model (vehicle: 501.5 ± 40.0 s; C. reticulata extract 300 mg/kg: 161.8 ± 41.1 s). The possible contribution of opioidergic and adenosinergic systems in the anti-hyperalgesic effect of C. reticulata extract was observed after treatment, with non-selective antagonists for both systems, which produced reversal effects. In conclusion, these properties of C. reticulata extract suggest a potential therapeutic benefit in treating painful conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pain is one of the most prevalent, costly and disabling conditions that reduces quality of life. Although there are many analgesics available, there is some concern regarding their efficacy, safety and side effects. Organic selenium compounds are attractive targets of various research groups due to their pharmacological properties. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activity of 1,2-bis-(4-methoxyphenylselanyl) styrene (BMOSE) in mice, as well as to investigate the mechanism involved in the antinociceptive effect. METHODS The animals were submitted to the formalin and glutamate tests. The assessment of the possible involvement of the serotonergic system in BMOSE antinociceptive activity was performed using the glutamate test. Also, we investigated the possible toxicity of the compound. KEY FINDINGS 1,2-bis-(4-methoxyphenylselanyl) styrene (0.1-50 mg/kg, i.g.) was efficient in avoiding nociception induced by glutamate and formalin and also reduced paw oedema. The possible involvement of 5-HT3 serotoninergic receptor antagonist ondansetron blocked the antinociceptive effect of BMOSE. The acute toxicity assays did not show any toxicity related to the administration of BMOSE (200 mg/kg). CONCLUSIONS It is possible to conclude that BMOSE has both antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activity, and the serotoninergic system, more specifically, the 5-HT3 receptor, is involved in the effect.
