Wu, Shuting published the artcileDocosahexaenoic acid supplementation represses the early immune response against murine cytomegalovirus but enhances NK cell effector function, Computed Properties of 6217-54-5, the publication is BMC Immunology (2022), 23(1), 17, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation is beneficial for several chronic diseases; however, its effect on immune regulation is still debated. Given the prevalence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and because natural killer (NK) cells are a component of innate immunity critical for controlling CMV infection, the current study explored the effect of a DHA-enriched diet on susceptibility to murine (M) CMV infection and the NK cell effector response to MCMV infection. Male C57BL/6 mice fed a control or DHA-enriched diet for 3 wk were infected with MCMV and sacrificed at the indicated time points postinfection. Compared with control mice, DHA-fed mice had higher liver and spleen viral loads at day 7 postinfection, but final MCMV clearance was not affected. The total numbers of NK cells and their terminal mature cell subset (KLRG1⁺ and Ly49H⁺ NK cells) were reduced compared with those in control mice at day 7 postinfection but not day 21. DHA feeding resulted in higher IFN-¦Ã and granzyme B expression in splenic NK cells at day 7 postinfection. A mechanistic anal. showed that the splenic NK cells of DHA-fed mice had enhanced glucose uptake, increased CD71 and CD98 expression, and higher mitochondrial mass than control mice. In addition, DHA-fed mice showed reductions in the total numbers and activation levels of CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T cells. These results suggest that DHA supplementation represses the early response to CMV infection but preserves NK cell effector functions by improving mitochondrial activity, which may play critical roles in subsequent MCMV clearance.

Fu, Shengli published the artcileEffects of faba bean (Vicia faba) diet on amino acid and fatty acid composition, flesh quality and expression of muscle quality-related genes in muscle of “crispy” grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idella, Product Details of C22H32O2, the publication is Aquaculture Research (2022), 53(13), 4653-4662, database is CAplus.

Faba bean meal (FBM) was used to replace protein materials in different proportions, and its impacts on amino acid and fatty acid composition, flesh quality and expression of muscle quality-related genes in muscle of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) were evaluated. In the breeding process of crispy grass carp, the addition of FB is very high, which has adverse effects on the physiol. function of grass carp. In order to determine the optimum addition amount of FB in crispy grass carp culture, five isonitrogenous (approx. 33.79% crude protein, CP) and isolipidic (approx. 3.43% crude lipid) diets containing different levels of FBM replacing protein materials 0% (CON), 70% (FBM70), 80% (FBM80), 90% (FBM90) and 100% (FBM100) were formulated and were randomly assigned to triplicate groups of fish for 100 days. The results showed that FBM supplement significantly enhanced the myofiber area and radius, content of collagen and CP in muscle. Moreover, compared with the CON group, the content of inosine 5¡ä-monphosphate (IMP), total amino acid (TAA), total non-essential amino acid (TNAA) and the expression of collagen-related (collagen type 1 alpha 1 chain [col1a1] and collagen type 1 alpha 2 chain [col1a2]) and muscle quality-related genes (fibroblast growth factor 6a [fgf6aI] and fibroblast growth factor 6b [fgf6b]) was the highest in the FBM70 group and the lowest in the FBM100 group. In conclusion, the maximal proportion of dietary protein replacement with FBM was 70% based on the flesh quality of grass carp, which provided guidance for the cultivation of crisp grass carp.

Liu, Hechun published the artcileEffects of marine-derived and plant-derived omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on erythrocyte fatty acid composition in type 2 diabetic patients, Computed Properties of 6217-54-5, the publication is Lipids in Health and Disease (2022), 21(1), 20, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Dietary fatty acids intake affects the composition of erythrocyte fatty acids, which is strongly correlated with glycolipid metabolism disorders. This study aimed at investigating the different effects of marine-derived and plant-derived omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 PUFA) on the fatty acids of erythrocytes and glycolipid metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The randomized double-blinded trial that was performed on 180 T2DM patients. The participants were randomly assigned to three groups for the six-month intervention. The fish oil (FO) group was administered with FO at a dose of 3 g/day containing eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), the perilla oil (PO) group was administered with PO at a dose of 3 g/day containing ¦Á-linolenic (ALA), the linseed and fish oil (LFO) group was administered with mixed linseed and fish oil at a dose of 3 g/day containing EPA, DHA and ALA. Demog. information were collected and anthropometric indexes, glucose and lipid metabolism indexes, erythrocyte fatty acid composition were measured. Statistical analyses were performed using two-way ANOVA. A total of 150 patients finished the trial, with 52 of them in the FO group, 50 in the PO group and 48 in the LFO group. There were significant effects of time x treatment interaction on fast blood glucose (FBG), insulin, HOMA-IR and C-peptide, TC and triglyceride (TG) levels (P < 0.001). Glucose and C-peptide in PO and LFO groups decreased significantly and serum TG in FO group significantly decreased (P < 0.001) after the intervention. Erythrocyte C22: 5 n-6, ALA, DPA, n-6/n-3 PUFA, AA/EPA levels in the PO group were significantly higher than FO and LFO groups, while EPA, total n-3 PUFA and Omega-3 index were significantly higher in the FO and LFO groups compared to PO group. Supplementation with perilla oil decreased FBG while fish oil supplementation decreased the TG level. Marine-based and plant-based n-3 PUFAs exhibit different effects on fatty acid compositions of erythrocytes and regulated glycolipid metabolism This trial was recorded under Chinese Clin. Trial Registry Center (NO: ChiCTR-IOR-16008435) on May 28 2016.

Three porous disulfide-ligand-containing metal-organic frameworks (DS-MOFs) and two nonporous coordination polymers with disulfide ligands (DS-CPs) with various structural dimensionalities were used as cathode active materials in lithium batteries. Charge/discharge performance examinations revealed that only porous DS-MOF-based batteries exhibited significant capacities close to the theor. values, which was ascribed to the insertion of electrolyte ions into the DS-MOFs. The insolubility of porous 3 D DS-MOFs in the electrolyte resulted in cycling performances superior to that of their 1 D and 2 D porous counterparts. Battery reactions were probed by instrumental analyses. The dual redox reactions of metal ions and disulfide ligands in the MOFs resulted in higher capacities, and the presence of reversible electrochem. dynamic S-S bonds stabilized the cycling performance. Thus, the strategy of S-S moiety trapping in MOFs and the obtained correlation between the structural features and battery performance could contribute to the design of high-performance MOF-based batteries and the practical realization of Li-S batteries.

Brouwers, Hilde published the artcileHyaluronidase treatment of synovial fluid is required for accurate detection of inflammatory cells and soluble mediators, Computed Properties of 6217-54-5, the publication is Arthritis Research & Therapy (2022), 24(1), 18, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Synovial fluid (SF) is commonly used for diagnostic and research purposes, as it is believed to reflect the local inflammatory environment. Owing to its complex composition and especially the presence of hyaluronic acid, SF is usually viscous and non-homogeneous. In this study, we investigated the importance of homogenization of the total SF sample before subsequent anal. SF was obtained from the knee of 29 arthritis patients (26 rheumatoid arthritis, 2 osteoarthritis, and 1 juvenile idiopathic arthritis patient) as part of standard clin. care. Synovial fluid was either treated with hyaluronidase as a whole or after aliquoting to determine whether the concentration of soluble mediators is evenly distributed in the viscous synovial fluid. Cytokine and IgG levels were measured by ELISA or Luminex and a total of seven fatty acid and oxylipin levels were determined using LC-MS/MS in all aliquots. For cell anal., synovial fluid was first centrifuged and the pellet was separated from the fluid. The fluid was subsequently treated with hyaluronidase and centrifuged to isolate remaining cells. Cell numbers and phenotype were determined using flow cytometry. In all patients, there was less variation in IgG, 17-HDHA, leukotriene B4 (LTB4), and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels when homogenization was performed before aliquoting the SF sample. There was no difference in variation for cytokines, 15-HETE, and fatty acids arachidonic acid (AA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Between 0.8 and 70% of immune cells (median 5%) remained in suspension and were missing in subsequent analyses when the cells were isolated from untreated SF. This percentage was higher for T and B cells: 7-85% (median 22%) and 7-88% (median 23%), resp. Homogenization of the entire SF sample leads to less variability in IgG and oxylipin levels and prevents erroneous conclusions based on incomplete isolation of synovial fluid cells.

The syntheses of the functionalized triorganofluorosilanes tBu₂-(p-XC₆H₄)SiF (3a, X = SH; 4a, X = NCS; 4b, X = NCO; 5, X = NC₄H₂O₂; 7, X = COOH; 8a, X = COONC₄H₄O₂; 8b, X = COOC₆F₅) are reported. These compounds display potential as silicon-based fluoride acceptors (SiFAs). The mol. structures of compounds 5, 7, and 8a have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. With the exception of compounds 8a and 8b, all of the compounds could be ¹⁸F-labeled by isotopic exchange in good to high radiochem. yields (RCY) with good to excellent specific activities. As proof of applicability, the maleimido-functionalized SiFA derivative 5, which is specific for thiol groups, has been used for the labeling of rat serum albumin (RSA) that had been derivatized with 2-iminothiolane. The incorporation of [¹⁸F]5 into the derivatized RSA reached a maximum yield after 30 min at ambient temperature After purification, the [¹⁸F]RSA was evaluated in a healthy rat by means of ¦ÌPET and displayed an expedient in vivo stability over 180 min.

Sayer, James R. published the artcileDesign, synthesis, and evaluation of peptide-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine bioconjugates as potential bivalent inhibitors of the VirB11 ATPase HP0525, Safety of Fmoc-Pro-OH, the publication is Journal of Peptide Science (2021), 27(10), e3353, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infections were implicated in the development of gastric ulcers and various cancers: however, the success of current therapies is compromised by rising antibiotic resistance. The virulence and pathogenicity of H. pylori is mediated by the type IV secretion system (T4SS), a multiprotein macromol. nanomachine that transfers toxic bacterial factors and plasmid DNA between bacterial cells, thus contributing to the spread of antibiotic resistance. A key component of the T4SS is the VirB11 ATPase HP0525, which is a hexameric protein assembly. The authors have previously reported the design and synthesis of a series of novel 8-amino imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine derivatives as inhibitors of HP0525. In order to improve their selectivity, and potentially develop these compounds as tools for probing the assembly of the HP0525 hexamer, the authors have explored the design and synthesis of potential bivalent inhibitors. The authors used the structural details of the subunit-subunit interactions within the HP0525 hexamer to design peptide recognition moieties of the subunit interface. Different methods (cross metathesis, click chem., and cysteine-malemide) for bioconjugation to selected 8-amino imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazines were explored, as well as peptides spanning larger or smaller regions of the interface. The IC₅₀ values of the resulting linker-8-amino imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine derivatives, and the bivalent inhibitors, were related to docking studies with the HP0525 crystal structure and to mol. dynamics simulations of the peptide recognition moieties.

Naydenova, St. published the artcileAtmospheric levels, distribution, sources, correlation with meteorological parameters and other pollutants and health risk of PAHs bound in PM_2.5 and PM₁₀ in Burgas, Bulgaria – a case study, Name: Coronene, the publication is Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part A: Toxic/Hazardous Substances & Environmental Engineering (2022), 57(4), 306-317, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The quality of atm. air of Burgas city, Bulgaria was analyzed in relation to PAHs in two particulate matter fractions – 2.5¦Ìm and 10¦Ìm. It was found that PAHs registered in PM₁₀ represent entirely the ones registered in PM_2.5 – an indication that the particulate PAHs in ambient air of Burgas for the sampling period are associated with the fine PM fraction. The PAH compounds with highest concentrations are mainly associated with coal combustion, diesel and gasoline vehicle and biomass burning, which is further confirmed by the calculated diagnostic ratios. The combustion-derived PAHs represent on average 86.6 ¡À 2.8% of total PAHs concentration The linear regression anal. showed strong and statistically meaningful correlations between PM fractions and PAHs indicating the influence of similar local events and emission sources of pollution. PM_2.5 or PM₁₀ relationships with PAHs were significant but lower correlation coefficients were observed for low-mol. weight (LMW) PAHs in comparison to middle-mol. weight (MMW) and higher-mol. weight (HMW) PAHs, due to their lower presence in particulates and higher partition in gaseous atm. phase. Further significant correlations were found with wind speed, solar radiation and atm. pressure as well as NO₂ and O₃ ambient concentration The calculated excess cancer risks are twice as much as acceptable limit.

Nwajiobi, Ogonna published the artcileRapid arene triazene chemistry for macrocyclization, Product Details of C20H19NO4, the publication is Journal of the American Chemical Society (2022), 144(10), 4633-4641, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Here, we report a novel rapid arene triazene strategy for the macrocyclization of peptides that generates an inbuilt chromophoric triazene moiety at the site of cyclization within a minute. The rapid arene triazene chem. is chemoselective for secondary amines and p-amino phenylalanine. Importantly, the resulting triazene cyclic peptide is highly stable at neutral pH and under harsh conditions but rapidly responds to various external stimuli such as UV radiations and acidic conditions, resulting in the ring opening to generate the linear peptides in an unchanged form, which further cyclizes under neutral pH conditions. This method works with completely unprotected peptides and has been applied for the synthesis of 18- to 66-membered monocycles and bicycles with various amino acid compositions in one pot under neutral pH conditions. Due to the high stability of triazene cyclic peptides, the postcyclization modification was carried out with various functional groups. This rapid, macrocyclization strategy featuring a triazene scaffold, amenable to late-stage diversification and responsive to external stimuli, should find application in various fields of chem. biol., selective drug delivery, and identification of cyclic peptide hits after library screening.
