Here we introduce silyl ether linkage as a novel dynamic covalent motif for material design. Through introduction of neighboring amino moiety, show that the exchange rate can be accelerated by almost three orders magnitude. By incorporating such linkages into covalently cross-linked polymer networks, demonstrate network polymers displaying both malleability and reprocessability. The networks is studied monitoring stress relaxation at varying temperature, their topology freezing temperatures...
One-way street: A new family of λ5-phospha[7]helicenes which form one-dimensional columnar stacks in the solid state were synthesized (see scheme). Neighboring have opposite dipole directions and, case racemic phosphole sulfide based helicene, columns with a given direction consist one enantiomer, whereas other enantiomer. Detailed facts importance to specialist readers are published as "Supporting Information". Such documents peer-reviewed, but not copy-edited or typeset. They made...

Programmed death 1 ligand (PD-L1), an important immune checkpoint molecule, is mainly expressed on cancer cells and has been shown to exert immunosuppressive effect T-cell function by binding programmed cell (PD-1) T-cells. Recently, inhibitors using antibody drugs such as nivolumab atezolizumab have attracted attention. However, clinical challenges, including limitations the scope of their application, are yet be addressed. In this study, we developed a novel inhibitor that targets PD-L1...

Glucuronidation of morphine in humans is predominantly catalyzed by UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B7 (UGT2B7). Since our recent research suggested that cytochrome P450s (P450s) interact with UGT2B7 to affect its function [Takeda S et al. (2005) <i>Mol Pharmacol</i> 67:665–672], P450 inhibitors are expected modulate UGT2B7-catalyzed activity. To address this issue, we investigated the effects (cimetidine, sulfaphenazole, erythromycin, nifedipine, and ketoconazole) on formation...
Tripropeptin C (TPPC) is a naturally occurring cyclic lipodepsipeptide antibiotic produced by Lysobacter sp. TPPC exhibits potent antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), and penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae. This also inhibits the incorporation of N-acetylglucosamine into peptidoglycan S. at 50% inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) 0.7 μM, which proportional to its MIC (0.87 μM; equivalent 1.0...
Abstract The abuse of antibacterial drugs imposes a selection pressure on bacteria that has driven the evolution multidrug resistance in many pathogens. Our efforts to discover novel classes antibiotics combat these pathogens resulted discovery amycolamicin (AMM). absolute structure AMM was determined by NMR spectroscopy, X‐ray analysis, chemical degradation, and modification its functional groups. consists trans ‐decalin, tetramic acid, two unusual sugars (amycolose amykitanose),...
Functional protein-protein interactions between UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)1A isoforms and cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 were studied. To this end, UGT1A-catalyzed glucuronidation was assayed in Sf-9 cells that simultaneously expressed UGT CYP3A4. In the kinetics of UGT1A6-catalyzed serotonin, both Michaelis constant (<i>K</i><sub>m</sub>) maximal velocity (<i>V</i><sub>max</sub>) increased by When CYP3A4 coexpressed with either UGT1A1 or 1A7, <i>V</i><sub>max</sub> for irinotecan...

Abstract 4-O-(3,4-Di-O-benzyl-2,6-dicarbobenzoxyamino-2,6-dideoxy-α-d-glucopyranosyl)-N,N′-dicar-bobenzoxy-2-deoxystreptamine has been prepared from neamine and condensed with 3-acetamido-2,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-3-deoxy-α-d-glucopyranosyl chloride by a modified Koenigs-Knorr reaction to give an α,α-diglycoside. The identity of the product substance same structure derived natural kanamycin B was shown. Removal masking groups gave synthetic B, which identical B.
We have demonstrated that an extract from the ripe fruit of Vitex agnus-castus (Vitex) exhibits cytotoxic activities against various types solid tumor cells, whereas its effects on leukemia cells has not been evaluated to date.
