Tu, Hua published the artcileDistinctive molecular inhibition mechanisms for selective inhibitors of human 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, Quality Control of 97009-67-1, the main research area is sulfonamide triazole hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase inhibitor preparation; non insulin dependent diabetes antidiabetic hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase inhibitor.

11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) catalyzes the NADPH dependent interconversion of inactive cortisone to active cortisol. Excess 11β-HSD1 or cortisol leads to insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome in animal models and in humans. Inhibiting 11β-HSD1 activity signifies a promising therapeutic strategy in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes and related diseases. Herein, the authors report two highly potent and selective small mol. inhibitors of human 11β-HSD1. While compound (I), a sulfonamide, functions as a simple substrate competitive inhibitor, compound (II), a triazole, shows the kinetic profile of a mixed inhibitor. Co-crystal structures reveal that both compounds occupy the 11β-HSD1 catalytic site, but present distinct mol. interactions with the protein. Strikingly, compound (II) interacts much closer to the cofactor NADP+ and likely modifies its binding. Together, the structural and kinetic analyses demonstrate two distinctive mol. inhibition mechanisms, providing valuable information for future inhibitor design.

Hui, Heping published the artcileStructure characterization, antioxidant and hypoglycemic activity of an arabinogalactoglucan from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, Quality Control of 91-15-6, the main research area is Scutellaria arabinogalactoglucan SBP1 antioxidant hypoglycemic agent; Antioxidant and hypoglycemic activity; Arabinogalactoglucan; Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi; Structure characterization.

An arabinogalactoglucan SBP-1 was purified from Scutellaria baicalensis by DEAE-52 and Sephadex G-100 column chromatog. The structure of SBP-1 was characterized using HPLC, IR, GC-MS, 1-D and 2-D NMR. The antioxidant and hypoglycemic activity of SBP-1 was investigated by vitro evaluation. The results showed that SBP-1 was composed of arabinose, glucose and galactose in a molar ratio of 1.0:5.9:1.1 and its Mw were 91,156. The backbone of SBP-1 was mainly composed of repeating →1-α-D-Glcp-(4 → 1)-α-D-Glcp-(3 → 1)-α-D-Galp-(4→. The braches were composed of →2)-α-L-Araf-(1→, →3)-β-D-Glcp-1→ and α-D-Glcp-1→, which mainly substituted at O-6 of Glc, while terminal residue was α-L-Araf-1→ and α-D-Glcp-1→. Vitro bioactivity showed that SBP-1 had dose-dependent antioxidant and hypoglycemic activity. The scavenging rate on ABTS, DPPH, hydroxyl and superoxide radicals was all beyond 60% as SBP-1 concentration reached 4 mg/mL, and the inhibition rate on α-glucosidase and α-amylase was both more than 80%, which was closely to that of acarbose.

Panomsuwan, Gasidit published the artcileIn situ solution plasma synthesis of silver nanoparticles supported on nitrogen-doped carbons with enhanced oxygen reduction activity, Category: nitriles-buliding-blocks, the main research area is silver nanoparticle nitrogen doped carbon electrocatalyst plasma synthesis; oxygen reduction reaction silver nanoparticle nitrogen doped carbon electrocatalyst.

Silver nanoparticles supported on nitrogen-doped carbons (Ag/NC) were in situ synthesized by a solution plasma process. In the solution plasma, Ag nanoparticles were produced via the sputtering of Ag electrode, while the NC supports were simultaneously synthesized from 2-cyanopyridine (C6H4N2). The results of the characterization show that Ag nanoparticles had good crystallinity and the NC supports possessed an amorphous structure. The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalyzed on Ag/NC proceeded via the co-existence of two and four-electron pathways in alk. solution, with the four-electron pathway being found to be more dominant. An enhanced ORR activity of Ag/NC was attributed to the synergistic effect of Ag nanoparticles and NC supports. Moreover, Ag/NC exhibited long-term durability and high resistance to methanol oxidation in comparison with the com. Pt/C catalyst.

Wang, Wenbo published the artcileTricycloquinazoline-containing 3D conjugated microporous polymers and 2D covalent quinazoline networks: microstructure and conductivity, Synthetic Route of 1885-29-6, the main research area is tricycloquinazoline conjugated microporous polymer covalent quinazoline network microstructure conductivity; gas adsorption hydrogen evolution reaction electrocatalyst.

Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) and covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) with conjugated linkages and nanochannels have been showcased as a new platform in extensive fields. Here, by tuning the geometry of the N-rich skeleton tricycloquinazoline (TQ) unit, isomers of the 3D amorphous conjugated microporous polymer (TQ-CMP) and 2D laminar covalent quinazoline network (TQ-CQN) are synthesized. The derived diverse microstructure and elec. conductivity related to the applications of gas adsorption and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are systematically discussed. TQ-CMP fabricated with an internal crosslinking network reveals a notable uptake of 25.6 wt% CO2 and of 2.91 wt% CH4 at 273 K and 1 bar, higher than most reported POP materials, which could be attributed to the higher BET surface area (781.0 m2 g-1) and dispersed pore size (1.1 nm to 13.1 nm) for guest mol. absorption. In contrast, both the modulated electronic structure of the precise π-conjugate planes and the vertically ordered one-dimensional channels endow TQ-CQN with more built-in catalytic sites and rapid electron transmission for the HER. Without any noble metal doping, the excellent catalytic activity and faster reaction kinetics of TQ-CQN are epitomized by the achieved lower overpotential of 80 mV and the Tafel slope of 40 mV dec-1.

Zatsikha, Yuriy V. published the artcileβ-Isoindigo-azaDIPYs: Fully Conjugated Hybrid Systems with Broad Absorption in the Visible Region, Application of Phthalonitrile, the main research area is isoindigo azaDIPYs conjugated hybrid system broad absorption visible region; 1-imino-3-thioisoindolines; BODIPY; density functional calculations; fused-ring systems; β-isoindigo.

A one-step synthetic pathway for the preparation of fully conjugated β-isoindigo-azaDIPY hybrid chromophores comprised of β-isoindigo and azadipyrromethene moieties is reported. The target compounds were characterized by spectroscopic, crystallog., and theor. methods and show unprecedented broad absorption across the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The x-ray crystal structure of the octa(n-butyl)-β-isoindigo-azaDIPY derivative revealed that a trans-configuration of the β-isoindigo fragment accompanies a planar conjugated core.

Leenaers, Pieter J. published the artcileInfluence of Regioregularity on the Optoelectronic Properties of Conjugated Diketopyrrolopyrrole Polymers Comprising Asymmetric Monomers, HPLC of Formula: 100-70-9, the main research area is regioregularity optoelectronic conjugated diketopyrrolopyrrole polymer comprising asym monomer.

Two asym. thiophene (T)/pyridine (Py) flanked diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) polymers with a regiorandom and regioregular conjugated backbone are synthesized via a Stille polycondensation to investigate the effect of regioregularity on their optoelectronic properties and photovoltaic performance in fullerene-based polymer solar cells. Surprisingly, both polymers possess very similar optical bandgap, energy levels, and photovoltaic performance. These findings, combined with a factor of 19 reactivity difference between the two end groups of the asym. DPP monomer, intuitively suggest the formation of regular chain segments in the random polymer. However, by modeling the random polymerization reaction with a kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulation, evidence is obtained for exclusive formation of a fully random polymer structure. UV-vis-NIR absorption spectra of three extended DPP chromophores, containing the donor segments (T-T-T, Py-T-Py, and Py-T-T) present in the regiorandom polymer, confirm that regioregularity of the backbone has a negligible influence on the optical properties.

Cui, Jie published the artcileA conformational transition based fluorescent probe for mapping lysosomal viscosity fluctuations by fluorescence lifetime imaging, Computed Properties of 100-70-9, the main research area is autophagy apoptosis lysosomal viscosity fluorescence lifetime imaging.

The local viscosity within lysosomes fluctuates dynamically under various physiol. and pathol. processes (e.g., autophagy and apoptosis), and has long been regarded as a key indicator to reflect lysosomal status and functionality. Therefore, accurate monitoring of lysosomal viscosity fluctuations is essential for a better understanding of lysosomal function and pathol. Herein, we present a distorted-conformation-induced viscosity-sensitive fluorescent mol. rotor (FMR), BODIPY-P, for quant. monitoring of lysosomal viscosity. BODIPY-P exhibited outstanding performance, including high sensitivity and selectivity to viscosity, dual response mode of fluorescence intensity and fluorescence lifetime, specific lysosome targeting, quick washing-free imaging and excellent intracellular photostability. Utilizing BODIPY-P, we successfully achieved specific mapping and quantifying the fluctuations of lysosomal viscosity during autophagy and apoptosis through dual-mode imaging of fluorescence intensity and fluorescence lifetime. D. functional theory revealed that the intrinsic viscosity-sensitive mechanism of BODIPY-Pwas ascribed to the conformational transition between planar and distortion caused by the rotation of the meso-benzene ring. Our study will spur addnl. research on FMRs, including the in-depth exploration of their underlying viscosity-responsive mechanism and potential applications in viscosity-related physiol. and pathol. investigations.

Meerovich, G. A. published the artcileNovel Polycationic Photosensitizers for Antibacterial Photodynamic Therapy, Name: Phthalonitrile, the main research area is polycationic photosensitizer antibacterial photodynamic therapy; Aggregation; Antibacterial photodynamic therapy; cationic photosensitizer; Bacterial biofilms; Bacteriochlorins; Luminescence.

Antibacterial photodynamic therapy (APDT) is a promising method of treating local infected foci, in particular, surgical and burn wounds, trophic and diabetic ulcers. Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) is able to effectively destroy bacterial cells without them developing resistance in response to treatment. This work was dedicated to the study of photophys. and antibacterial properties of new photosensitizers (PS) based on polycationic phthalocyanines and synthetic bacteriochlorins for photodynamic inactivation of P. aeruginosa bacteria and their biofilms. Gram-neg. bacteria P. aeruginosa are often found in infected wounds, presumably in biofilm state and are characterized by rather low susceptibility to APDT, which is a problem. PS were studied for possible aggregation at various concentrations by means of absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The results of studies of the ZnPcChol8, (3-PyHp)4BCBr4 and (3-PyEBr)4BCBr4 in water and serum confirm the assumption of a low degree of their aggregation at high concentrations Consequently, their photodynamic efficiency is high enabling to use these PS at high concentrations to sensitize pathol. foci for APDT. It was shown that all the investigated PS had a high efficiency of photodynamic inactivation of Gram-neg. bacteria P. aeruginosa, as well as their biofilms. Tetracationic hydrophilic near-IR photosensitizer (3-PyEBr)4BCBr4 with reduced mol. size had significantly higher efficacy of photodynamic inactivation of P. aeruginosa biofilms compared with other studied photosensitizers.

Leijendekker, Leonardus H. published the artcileDevelopment, Scope, and Applications of Titanium(III)-Catalyzed Cyclizations to Aminated N-Heterocycles, Synthetic Route of 1885-29-6, the main research area is aminoindole aminopyrrole preparation fluorescence; imine cyclization titanium catalyzed; homogeneous catalysis; nitrogen heterocycles; reduction; titanium; umpolung.

The exceptionally mild conditions of a titanium(III)-catalyzed cyclization reaction paired with a convenient acid/base extraction was enabled the straightforward synthesis, isolation, and direct N-functionalization of amino heterocycles such as 3-aminoindoles I [R = Ph, 2-thienyl, 1-naphthyl, etc.] and -pyrroles. The unprotected heterocycles were ideal building blocks for the installation of aminated indoles and pyrroles into target mols., but their sensitivity had previously impeded their synthesis by modern catalytic methods. This full paper presented the development and extended scope of the new cyclization methodol. The transformation of the products into fused bis-indoles was also demonstrated along with the discovery of an unusual palladium-catalyzed reductive biphenyl coupling reaction. The titanium(III)-catalyzed cyclization had also been applied to the synthesis of substituted 3-iminoindolines, which were of potential interest for applications in natural product synthesis and exhibit tunable blue-to-green fluorescence properties.
