Regio- and stereoselective synthesis of spiro-heterocycles bearing the pyrazole scaffold via [3+2] cycloaddition reaction
2022
Abstract Herein we reported the utility of one-pot multicomponent based [3+2] cycloaddition reaction transformation to prepare a new two hybrids of spirooxindoles engrafted with pyrazole skeleton. Upon treatment of the electron-deficient olefins based pyrazole motif with in situ the generated azomethine ylides (AY) of sarcosine with the 6-chloro-isatin afforded spiroadducts. To enlighten the regio- and diastereo-selectivity of these spiroheterocycles, single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis was presented. Using Hirshfeld calculations, many short distance contacts such as O…H, Cl…H, N…H, H…C, C…C and Cl…S have a great impact on the molecular packing and the crystal stability of 8a and 8b. …
Influence of Riboflavin Targeting on Tumor Accumulation and Internalization of Peptostar Based Drug Delivery Systems.
2020
Riboflavin carrier protein (RCP) and riboflavin transporters (RFVTs) have been reported to be highly overexpressed in various cancer cells. Hence, targeting RCP and RFVTs using riboflavin may enhance tumor accumulation and internalization of drug delivery systems. To test this hypothesis, butyl-based 3-arm peptostar polymers were synthesized consisting of a lysine core (10 units per arm) and a sarcosine shell (100 units per arm). The end groups of the arms and the core were successfully modified with riboflavin and the Cy-5.5 fluorescent dye, respectively. While in phosphate buffered saline the functionalized peptostars showed a bimodal behavior and formed supramolecular structures over tim…
Poly(sarcosine) surface modification imparts stealth-like properties to liposomes
2019
Circulation lifetime is a crucial parameter for a successful therapy with nanoparticles. Reduction and alteration of opsonization profiles by surface modification of nanoparticles is the main strategy to achieve this objective. In clinical settings, PEGylation is the most relevant strategy to enhance blood circulation, yet it has drawbacks, including hypersensitivity reactions in some patients treated with PEGylated nanoparticles, which fuel the search for alternative strategies. In this work, lipopolysarcosine derivatives (BA-pSar, bisalkyl polysarcosine) with precise chain lengths and low polydispersity indices are synthesized, characterized, and incorporated into the bilayer of preformed…

Moving and acting underwater within recreational or occupational activities requires intact executive functions, since they subserve higher cognitive functions such as successful self-regulation, coping with novel situations, and decision making; all of which could be influenced by nitrogen narcosis due to elevated partial pressure under water. However, specific executive functions that could provide a differentiated view on humans’ cognitive performance ability have not yet been systematically analyzed in full-water immersion, which is a research gap addressed within this approach to contribute to a better understanding of nitrogen narcosis. In this study, 20 young, healthy, and certified …
Humour as a symptom of research trends in translation studies
2017
This article is an overview of translation studies applied to the case of humour, divided into four parts, plus an extensive bibliography. The first part goes over humour translation as a relevant object of research and why it is worthy of more academic attention. Humour translation should not be dealt with or looked upon as a strange body within translation studies. Part two is an overview of key contributions to the field, from Spain and elsewhere, covering a considerable number of authors and theories. Part three focuses on promising areas of interest for researchers and illustrates how audiovisual translation is a good instance of dynamism within the field, connecting all this to the ri…

Las pinturas murales de los arcosolios del Cementerio del Conjunto Histórico de San Juan del Hospital de Valencia
2020
Los últimos trabajos de restauración llevados a cabo en los arcosolios del cementerio del Conjunto Histórico de San Juan del Hospital de Valencia han sacado a la luz parte de las pinturas murales que sirvieron como decoración al intradós de estas pequeñas arquitecturas funerarias. Dichas pinturas, ocultas bajo diferentes capas de cal desde mediados del siglo XIV, se suman a las descubiertas en las anteriores etapas de rehabilitación y restauración en la capilla de San Miguel y en el arcosolio llamado de Fernández Heredia. De este modo el conjunto hospitalario se sitúa entre los monumentos con más numerosos e interesantes restos pictóricos murales de época medieval de la ciudad de Valencia. …

100 anys després, el desastre del Titànic troba nous culpables
2012
100 anys després de l'enfonsament del Titànic, l'article revisa, des d'un punt de vista astronòmic, la influència de l'alineació lunisolar de gener de 1912 sobre el desastre marítim. 100 years after the sinking of the Titanic, the article reviews, from an astronomical point of view, the influence of the lunisolar alignment of January 1912 on the maritime disaster.
