Manganese carbonyl terpyridyl complexes: their synthesis, characterization and potential application as CO-release molecules
2014
MnI carbonyl terpyridyl complexes have been synthesized and characterized. The tricarbonyl derivative exhibits interesting behaviors for controlled CO-release by both thermal and photosynthetic pathways.
Reversible coordination of dioxygen by tripodal tetraamine copper complexes incorporated in a porous silica framework.
2010
The present study reports the synthesis and rational design of porous structured materials by using a templating method. A tetraethoxysilylated tripodal tetraamine (TREN) was covalently incorporated in a silica framework with a double imprint: A surfactant template and a metal ion imprint. The presence of a cationic surfactant (CTAB) endowed the material with a high porosity, and the tripodal or square-pyramidal topology of the ligand was preserved thanks to the use of the silylated Cu(II) complex. After removal of the surfactant and de-metalation, the incorporated tetraamine was quantitatively complexed by CuCl(2) and the material has shown after thermal activation that a reversible bindin…
Menaquinone-dependent succinate dehydrogenase of bacteria catalyzes reversed electron transport driven by the proton potential.
1998
Succinate dehydrogenases from bacteria and archaea using menaquinone (MK) as an electron acceptor (succinate/menaquinone oxidoreductases) contain, or are predicted to contain, two heme-B groups in the membrane-anchoring protein(s), located close to opposite sides of the membrane. All succinate/ubiquinone oxidoreductases, however, contain only one heme-B molecule. In Bacillus subtilis and other bacteria that use MK as the respiratory quinone, the succinate oxidase activity (succinate-->O2), and the succinate/menaquinone oxidoreductase activity were specifically inhibited by uncoupler (CCCP, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) or by agents dissipating the membrane potential (valinomycin…
8-Hydroxyquinoline-2-Carboxylic Acid as Possible Molybdophore: A Multi-Technique Approach to Define Its Chemical Speciation, Coordination and Sequest…

8-hydroxyquinoline-2-carboxylic acid (8-HQA) has been found in high concentrations (0.5&ndash
Reversible switching of the electronic ground state in a pentacoordinated Cu(ii) complex.
2013
International audience; An easy reversible switching of the electronic ground state in a pentacoordinated copper(ii) complex is reported for the first time. The simple protonation of a carboxylic group in a Cu(ii) complex with a {dx(2)-y(2)}(1) electronic configuration leads to a flip of the ground electronic configuration from {dx(2)-y(2)}(1) to {dz(2)}(1) in the metal ion.
Synergistic Effect of Carfilzomib and Metformin in Vascular Plasticity; The Emerging Role of Autophagy
2019
Introduction: Carfilzomib (Cfz) correlates with a risk of reversible cardiotoxicity in 5-10% of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. We have recently shown that metformin (Met) has a prophylactic role against the Cfz-induced cardiotoxicity in vivo, through activation of AMPKα signaling (Blood 2019;133:710-23). However, the impact of Cfz on vascular function is obscure. Therefore, we sought to investigate: i) the acute, ii) the sub-chronic effect of Cfz on the vascular reactivity, iii) the effect of metformin co-administration on the vascular phenotype and iv) the impact of Cfz and Met co-administration on aged Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells (HAoSMCs). Methods: Forty male C57Bl/6 mice were assi…
Non-coronary atherosclerosis
2014
International audience; During the last decades, the clinical and research interest in atherosclerosis has been mostly focused on coronary arteries. After the publications of the European Society Guidelines and AHA/ACC Guidelines on Peripheral artery diseases, and of the Registry REduction in Atherothrombosis for Continued Health Registry, there has been an increased interest in atherosclerosis of the lower extremity arteries and its presence in multifocal disease. However, awareness in the general population and the medical community of non-coronary artery diseases, and of its major prognostic implications remain relatively low. The aim of this general review stemming out of an ESC Working…
Electroosmotic effects in the determination of ion mobilities of carrier-free radionuclides in free aqueous electrolyte solutions
2001
A device for on-line electromigration studies of radio-elements in free electrolytes has been tested by measuring the absolute individual ion mobilities of no-carrier-added single charged anions [99mTc]TcO4 - and [18F]F- and differently charged cations [137Cs]Cs+, [57Co]Co2+ and [241Am]Am3+ in inert aqueous electrolytes at 298.1 K. The observed ion mobilities were found to be influenced by electroosmosis in the migration tube. A relation to correct this effect is proposed. In addition, it was shown that the effect of electroosmosis may be suppressed by chemical treatment of the surface of the migration tube.
Antibody generation and immunoassay development in diverse formats for pyrimethanil specific and sensitive analysis
2012
Immunochemical techniques are complementary tools to modern analytical requirements. These methods rely on the production of immunoreagents with adequate binding properties. In the present study, a rationally designed and functionalized derivative of pyrimethanil-a modern anilinopyrimidine fungicide-was synthesized in order to generate for the first time high-affinity and selective antibodies to this xenobiotic. A single coupling procedure-based on hapten activation using N,N′-disuccinimidyl carbonate and purification of the active ester-was followed to prepare both immunizing and assay conjugates. Polyclonal antibodies were produced and characterized by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (E…
Agkistrodon ameliorates pain response and prevents cartilage degradation in monosodium iodoacetate-induced osteoarthritic rats by inhibiting chondroc…
2019
Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance Osteoarthritis (OA), characterized by joint pain and cartilage degradation, is the most common form of joint disease worldwide but with no satisfactory therapy available. The ethanol extract of Agkistrodon acutus (EAA) has been widely used as a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for the treatment of arthralgia and inflammatory diseases, but there is no report regarding its efficacy on OA to date. Here, we determined the effects of EAA on the pain behavior and cartilage degradation in vivo and clarified its target genes and proteins associated with chondrocyte hypertrophy and apoptosis in vitro. Materials and methods In vivo OA model was established by…
