Diabetes and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system: Implications for covid-19 patients with diabetes treatment management

2020

In the context of the COVID-19 continuous spreading, this paper focuses on the increased risk of diabetic patients regarding the metabolic control and the uncertainties related to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Chronic hyperglycaemia negatively affects the immune system, which triggers an increase of morbidity and mortality for viral infections. A key aspect of COVID-19 resides in the involvement of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (RAAS) system that causes a cascade of reactions mediated by vasoactive peptides with implications in vasoconstriction, vascular permeability, oxidative stress remodelling and tissue injuries. Activation of RAAS at pulmonary level, is responsible for the local damage. Many q…

Reactions in the presence of irradiated semiconductors: Are they simply photocatalytic?

2018

A generally accepted classification distinguishes semiconductor photocatalysis in type A and type B. The first class comprehends reactions where the primary redox products (radical anions and cations) further evolve giving rise to the final reduced and oxidized species. Type B reactions occur when the primary redox products undergo intermolecular bond formation to addition products. Recently, some photocatalytic reactions have been reported wherein the photocatalytically produced compounds are not the final products. In fact, they react in the solution bulk or catalytically on the surface of the semiconductor with other species thus producing the target compounds. These reactions, hereby re…

New, Multi‐Dimensional Cu(tn)‐[M(CN) 6 ] n – Cyano‐Bridged, Bimetallic Coordination Materials (M = Fe II , Co III , Cr III and tn = 1,3‐Diaminopropan…

2005

Reaction of the [Fe I I I (CN) 6 ] 3 - anion with [Cu I I (tn)(H 2 O) n ] 2 + (tn = 1,3-diaminopropane) affords the compounds [{Cu I I (tn)} 2 -{Fe I I (CN) 6 }].KCl.5H 2 O (1), [(Cu"(tn))2(Fe"(CN) 6 )].4H 2 O (2), and [{Cu I I (tnH) 2 (H 2 O) 2 }{Fe I I (CN) 6 }].2H 2 O (3). Each iron center in 1 and 2 is linked to six copper(II) ions by six cyanide bridges, while each copper ion is linked to three equivalent iron(II) ions. Despite these resemblances, the two compounds present large structural differences caused by two different orientations of the Cu-NC-Fe bridges: compound 1 has a 2D structure which can be described as successions of "Cu 4 Fe 3 " defective cubane units, while compound 2 …

Highly antiproliferative neutral Ru(ii)-arene phosphine complexes

2018

Six ruthenium(II)- and four gold(I)-phosphine based complexes were synthesized and fully characterized. Some of them displayed strong antiproliferative properties for several types of cancer including colon, breast, and lung. Notably, two of the Ru(II) complexes displayed an IC50 of around 2 μM, which is exceptional for these types of complexes. The dramatic impact of the nature of the arene coordinated on the ruthenium center was clearly evidenced.

Magneto-structural correlations in asymmetric oxalato-bridged dicopper(II) complexes with polymethyl-substituted pyrazole ligands

2018

Two oxalato-bridged dinuclear copper(II) complexes, [{Cu(Hdmpz)3}2(μ-ox)](ClO4)2·2H2O (1) and [{Cu(Htmpz)3}2(μ-ox)](ClO4)2·2H2O (2) (Hdmpz = 3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole and Htmpz = 3,4,5-trimethyl-1H-pyrazole), have been synthesized and structurally and magnetically characterized. The crystal structures of 1 and 2 consist of asymmetric bis-bidentate μ-oxalatodicopper(II) complex cations with two short [Cu–O = 1.976(2) (1) and 1.973(2) Å (2)] and two long copper–oxygen bonds [Cu–O = 2.122(2) (1) and 2.110(2) Å (2)]. The environment at each CuII ion in 1 and 2 is closer to the trigonal bipyramidal geometry than to the square pyramidal [τ = 0.633 (1) and 0.711 (2)]. The magnetic properties of 1 a…

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of the cyclic tetranuclear compound [Cu4(pz)4(hppa)2(H2O)4] [pz = pyrazolate; hppa = R,S-2-hydro…

2019

Abstract The synthesis, X-ray structure and magnetic properties of the neutral tetranuclear copper(II) complex of formula [Cu4(pz)4(hppa)2(H2O)4] (1) [Hpz = pyrazole and hppa = R,S-2-hydroxo-2-phenyl-2-(1-pyrazolyl)acetate] are reported. Remarkably, the structure of 1 reveals the presence of the S- and R-forms of the new hppa ligand which is formed in situ in the complex reaction between copper(II), pyrazole and phenylmalonate in water:methanol solvent mixture under ambient conditions. The two crystallographically independent copper(II) ions [Cu(1)/Cu(2)] are five-coordinate in square pyramidal surroundings. Three nitrogen atoms, from two pz groups and one hppa ligand and one oxygen atom of…

DFT Study on the Interaction of Tris(benzene-1,2-dithiolato)molybdenum Complex with Water. A Hydrolysis Mechanism Involving a Feasible Seven-Coordina…

2016

In the present work, the reactivity of the tris(benzene-1,2-dithiolato)molybdenum complex ([Mo(bdt)3]) toward water is studied by means of the density functional theory (DFT). DFT calculations were performed using the M06, B3P86, and B3PW91 hybrid functionals for comparison purposes. The M06 method was employed to elucidate the reaction pathway, relative stability of the intermediate products, nature of the Mo–S bond cleavage, and electronic structure of the involved molybdenum species. This functional was also used to study the transference of electrons from the molybdenum center toward the ligands. The reaction pathway confirms that [Mo(bdt)3] undergoes hydrolysis, yielding dihydroxo-bis(…
