Aim: To determine the relevance of features located close to home and further away, our aim was to study associations between older adults' physical activity and self-reported neighborhood destinations and barriers to outdoor mobility categorized by presence and maximal distance from home. Methods: Cross-sectional analyses comprising men and women 79-94 years old (57%) living independently in Central Finland (n = 185). Self-reported physical activity was categorized into lower (≤3 h moderate activity a week) and higher (≥4 h moderate or intense activity a week) activity. Assisted by interviewers, participants located on an interactive map destinations perceived to facilitate and barriers pe…
Vanadium complexes with multidentate amine bisphenols
2014
The reaction of VO(acac)2 (acac(-) = acetyl acetonate) with tripodal glycine bisphenol H3L(1) under an ambient atmosphere yields a hexacoordinated vanadium(iv) complex [V(acac)(L(1))] (1). The corresponding reactions with tripodal 2-propanolamine bisphenol H3L(2) and potentially pentadentate ethoxyethanolamine bisphenol H3L(3) lead to the oxidation of the metal centre and formation of mononuclear oxovanadium(v) complexes [VO(L(2))] (2) and [VO(L(3))] (3), respectively. Alternatively, these latter two complexes can be prepared using VOSO4·5H2O or VO(OPr)3 as a precursor. The CV of 1 in an ACN solution shows a reversible one-electron process at E1/2 = +1.18 V, whereas 2 and 3 have an irrevers…
Sesquiterpenoids from the Endophytic Fungus Rhinocladiella similis
2019
Ten new sesquiterpenoid derivatives, rhinomilisins A-J (1-10), along with six known analogues (11-16), were isolated from the mangrove-derived endophytic fungus Rhinocladiella similis. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by their NMR and MS data, while the absolute configuration of 3 and 6 was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis and Mosher's method, respectively. All isolated compounds (1-16) were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against the mouse lymphoma cell line L5178Y, and compounds 1, 7, and 15 showed moderate activity with IC50 values of 5.0, 8.7, and 24.4 μM, respectively.
A Facile Synthesis of Deaza-Analogues of the Bisindole Marine Alkaloid Topsentin
2013
A series of substituted ethyl 1-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]-2-methyl-5- (1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-4-[(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)carbonyl]-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylates were prepared in excellent yields (82-98%) by one-pot reactions between β-dicarbonyl compounds 12a-e and 1,2-diaza-1,3-diene (DD) 13. Derivatives 10a,c-e, deazaanalogues of the bis-indole alkaloid topsentin, screened by the National Cancer Institute (Bethesda, MD, USA) in the in vitro one dose primary anticancer assay against a panel of about 60 human tumor cell lines, showed no significant activity, with the exception of compound 9e, which showed moderate activity against the HOP-92 cell line of the non small cell lung cancer sub-p…
Relationship between the practice of physical activity and quality of movement in adolescents: a screening tool using self-organizing maps.
2017
The aim of this study was to determine whether the most physically active adolescents have better lower limb control.31 high school students (12 males and 19 females) participated in this study. The Anterior Knee Pain Scale was used to find any cases of knee pain. Only subjects with high scores were selected, to exclude those with knee pain or lower limb injuries. Single Leg Squat and Tuck Jump Assessment were used to evaluate movements with two cameras in a two-dimensional assessment. The IPAQ Questionnaire was used to score the physical activity and to classify it into MET total, MET moderate activity, MET vigorous activity and MET walking. These scores were related to knee angle at landi…
Translational study associated to a phase II study evaluating the activity of pazopanib in patients (pts) with advanced/metastatic liposarcoma (LPS):…
2019
11067 Background: GEIS 30 was a phase II study showing moderate activity of pazopanib in well-differentiated/dedifferentiated LPS (cohort A:37 pts, Progression free Survival (PFS) at 12 weeks (w) 43.2%) and no activity in Myxoid/round cell LPS (cohort B: 15 pts, PFS at 12w 13.3%). The present study aims to identify tumor and plasma biomarkers that are differently expressed in long responders (LRs) PFS > 24 w. Methods: Serum samples and paraffin-blocks at diagnosis were collected for 28 pts in cohort A and 11 in B. A total of 13 pts were LRs. Serum samples were obtained at baseline, after 3 w of treatment and at progression. A panel of 15 cytokines and growth factors were evaluated using…
