Effects of amsacrine (m-AMSA), a new aminoacridine antitumor drug, on the rabbit heart.
1983
There is emerging clinical evidence that amsacrine (m-AMSA) administration may be associated with cardiotoxic effects such as severe, even fatal, ventricular arrhythmias and impairment of the inotropic performance of the heart. Information on the cardiac effects of m-AMSA in animals is scanty. Studies on mice, dogs, and monkeys have not evidenced the cardiotoxicity of the compound. The data presented in this paper show that m-AMSA causes acute ECG alterations in normal rabbits and a dose-related negative inotropic effect on the isolated rabbit heart, suggesting that this species may be a useful model for the study of the cardiac actions of this antiblastic.
Identification of conjugation and cleavage products in the thiolytic metabolism of the anticancer drug 4'-(9-acridinylamino)methanesulfon-m-anisidide.
1981
Conjugation and cleavage products in the thiolytic metabolism of the anticancer drug 4′ -(9-acridinyl amino)methanesulfon-m-anisidide were identified primarily by high-pressure liquid chromatography in combination with field desorption mass spectrometry. The spontaneous metabolic pathway of the drug, as related to its susceptibility to nucleophilic attack by endogenous thiols at the 9-carbon atom of the acridine moiety, has been studied. Among the metabolite fraction of 4′-(9-acridinylamino)methanesulfon-m-anisidide excreted in rat bile after administration of a therapeutic dose, a conjugate was identified as the 9-acridinyl thioether of glutathione. This conjugation product and the corresp…
A bi-allelic loss-of-function SARS1 variant in children with neurodevelopmental delay, deafness, cardiomyopathy, and decompensation during fever
2021
Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRS) are ubiquitously expressed enzymes responsible for ligating amino acids to their cognate tRNA molecules through an aminoacylation reaction. The resulting aminoacyl-tRNA is delivered to ribosome elongation factors to participate in protein synthesis. Seryl-tRNA synthetase (SARS1) is one of the cytosolic aaRSs and catalyzes serine attachment to tRNASer . SARS1 deficiency has already been associated with moderate intellectual disability, ataxia, muscle weakness, and seizure in one family. We describe here a new clinical presentation including developmental delay, central deafness, cardiomyopathy, and metabolic decompensation during fever leading to death, in a…
ChemInform Abstract: Dialkylimidazolium Dimethyl Phosphates as Solvents and Catalysts for the Knoevenagel Condensation Reaction.
2014
Knoevenagel condensation between benzaldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate in the presence of an equimolar amount of 1,3-dialkylimidazolium dimethyl phosphate ionic liquids is investigated.
N-valproyl-aminoacids as new potential antiepileptic drugs: Synthesis, characterization and in vitro studies on stability
2015
Epilepsy, affecting at least 50 million persons worldwide, is one of the most common neurological disorders. Despite the significant advances in understanding epileptogenic mechanisms and in counteracting their pathological consequences, this clinical condition still has to be faced of treating more effectively the symptoms (epileptic seizures) and of preventing their unfavourable evolution. So far, research has been unsuccessful involved in developing effective antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) capable of preventing the development of the pathogenic process, set in motion by different etiological factors, that leads ultimately to chronic epilepsies .[1, 2] So, a substantial need remains to develo…
An Efficient Synthesis of γ-Aminoacids and Attempts to Drive Its Enantioselectivity
2008
Addition of carboxylic acid dianions to bromoacetonitrile lead, in good yields,to the corresponding gamma-cyanoacids, which on hydrogenation yielded gamma-amino acids. This two step methodology improves upon previously described results. Poor e.e's resultedfrom our attempts to drive the enantioselectivity of this transformation by chiral amide induction.
Influence of spatial arrangements of π-spacer and acceptor of phenothiazine based dyes on the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells
2013
Abstract Three phenothiazine based organic dyes PTA , PDTA and PTDA with D– π –A, π –D– π –A and A– π –D– π –A frameworks were designed and synthesized for the dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Phenothiazine with octyloxyphenyl moiety acts as donor while thiophene and cyanoacetic acid units act as a π -spacer and an acceptor, respectively. The effects of the molecular structures of the dyes on the performance of the DSSCs were investigated systematically along with their photophysical and photoelectrochemical properties. The dye PTDA with A– π –D– π –A framework exhibited a better light harvesting capacity and an effective electron extraction pathway from the electron donor to the TiO 2 s…
A facile way to build up branched high functional polyaminoacids with tunable physicochemical and biological properties
2016
Abstract Here, for the first time, branched polyaminoacids bearing α-amino acids as side functions, namely PAA-co-AA and PGA-co-AA, are prepared by heterophase ring opening of polysuccinimide (PSI) with l -arginine or glycine in aqueous environment and at controlled pH. The modulation of the pH of the reaction leads to high-molecular-weight copolymers with tunable functionalization and, as consequence, with tailor-made physicochemical properties. Furthermore, a branched polyaminoacid carrying a preformed bioactive peptide ( l -trileucine) and l -arginine as side pendants, named PATA-co-AA, was synthesized via a similar pathway thus leading to complex biomimetic materials potentially exploit…
Complessi di Organostagno(IV) con amminoacidi e dipeptidi: sintesi, caratterizzazione e attività biologica in vitro.
2008
Scopo della ricerca è la sintesi, caratterizzazione strutturale ed attività biologica di complessi di organostagno(IV) e amminoacidi quali L-arginina (Arg), N-Boc-L-arginina (Boc-Arg), L-ornitina (L-Orn) ed un dipeptide contenente L-arginina, Alanil-Arginina (Ala-Arg). I complessi di diorganostagno(IV) sono noti possedere attività antitumorale [1], antimicrobica [2] e antiinfiammatoria. I complessi di triorganostagno(IV) inibiscono la funzione mitocondriale almeno in tre modi: 1) reagendo con le membrane cellulari; 2) alterando lo scambio Cl-/OH- attraverso la membrana; 3) inibendo la fosforilazione ossidativa o l’idrolisi di ATP [3].L’arginina (Arg) è un amminoacido essenziale con un grup…
Prosthetically‐Driven Full‐Mouth Implant‐Supported Prostheses Using Guided Surgical Implant Planning with Composite Resin Markers: A Case Report
2021
This report describes a prosthetically-driven implant planning method, guided by the alignment procedures between the cone beam computed tomography, intraoral digital scans, and digitized maxillary and mandibular interim complete dentures using intraoral composite resin markers as a common reference. The markers were attached to the keratinized oral mucosa of the edentulous ridges using cyanoacrylate and kept in place during the digitizing procedures. The technique provides a simpler and more economical alternative to conventional prosthetically-driven static implant planning methods.
