Molecular and crystal structure of Ac-(Z)-ΔAbu-NMe2 and Ac-DL-Abu-NMe2 as compared to those of related molecules
2004
Abstract The molecular and crystal structures of two homologous amino acid derivatives: N-acetyl-α,β-dehydro-butyrine N´,N´-dimethylamide (1) and N-acetyl-DL-butyrine N´,N´-dimethylamide (2), have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Similar solid-state association of both compounds is observed; despite different molecular conformation, they form centrosymmetric dimers linked by the intermolecular N–H…O hydrogen bonds. The conformation of two crystallographically independent molecules of 1 [with torsion angles ϕ, ψ, χ 1 ≈ (–47°, 130°, 3°), respectively] is also characteristic of other related diamides – ΔAla, ΔPhe and ΔLeu – previously studied in the solid state. To analyse whether thi…
Co-production of Hydrogen and Methane From the Organic Fraction of Municipal Solid Waste in a Pilot Scale Dark Fermenter and Methanogenic Biofilm Rea…
2018
The co-production of biohydrogen and methane from the organic fraction of municipal solid waste was investigated using a two-stage AD system, composed of a pilot scale dark fermenter (DF) and a continuous methanogenic biofilm reactor. From the DF process, a biohydrogen yield of 41.7 (± 2.3) ml H2/gVSadded was achieved. The liquid DF effluent (DFE) was rich in short chain volatile fatty acids, i.e., mainly acetic and butyric acid. The DFE was valorized by producing methane in the methanogenic biofilm reactor. Two methanogenic biofilm reactors were used to assess the biotic and abiotic role of the DFE on the performance of the reactors. Regardless of the different DFE feeding (i.e., biotic an…
Characterization of cell wall proteins of yeast and hydrophobic mycelial cells of Candida albicans
1991
Cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH) of blastoconidia and blastoconidia bearing germ tubes of Candida albicans ATCC 26555 was monitored by assessing attachment of polystyrene microspheres to the cell surface, and we found that mature hyphae were significantly hydrophobic. Treatment of intact cells with low concentrations of beta-glucanase (Zymolyase 20T) or proteases abolished or significantly reduced attachment of latex beads to hyphae. This effect paralleled an obvious reduction in CSH of the entire cell population, as measured by an aqueous-hydrocarbon biphasic partitioning assay. Analysis of the cell wall material released by Zymolyase and adsorbed on polystyrene microspheres indicated tha…
Über den angriff des carboniumions am monomeren styrol bei der kationischen copolymerisation von trioxane und styrol. 19. Mitt. über polyoxymethylene
1962
Bei der Saure-katalysierten Hydrolyse von kationisch dargestellten Copolymeren aus Trioxan und Styrol entsteht 4-Phenyl-1,3-Dioxan. Das last sich nur so erklaren, das in Analogie zur radikalischen und zur anionischen Polymerisation der Angriff des Carboniumions ebenfalls am β-Kohlenstoffatom des Styrols erfolgt. Formation of 4-phenyl-1,3-dioxan occurs during the acid catalyzed hydrolysis of cationically produced copolymers of trioxane and styrene. The only possible explanation involves an attack of the carboniumion at the β-carbonatom of styrene analogous to the radical and anionic polymerization.

Construction and characterization of models of hypercrosslinked polystyrene
2012
A simple algorithm involving classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations is here suggested to build up models of hypercrosslinked polystyrene showing macroporous structure. The algorithm is composed by three consecutive stages: MD simulation of a single polystyrene coil, crosslink formation, and finally relaxation of the structure. The models, which are differentiated by the crosslinker concentration in the initial polystyrene chain, can be characterized by employing tools of the small angle neutron scattering analysis and procedures associated to the crosslinking algorithm, which allows one to discriminate among the different kinds of crosslinks between phenyl rings and to calculate the …
EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy continuation with high-dose hypofractionated radiotherapy in EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) p…
2020
e21580 Background: EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) represent the standard first-line therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with activating EGFR mutations. However, despite initial marked responses, tumors invariably develop acquired resistance to TKIs. Oligoprogression is commonly observed during treatment with oncogene-directed therapies, including EGFR TKIs, and refers to patients who experience disease progression only in limited sites as a result of heterogeneous mechanisms of resistance. The use of local ablative treatments for these resistant lesions may extend the duration of TKI therapy and potentially improve long-term disease control and survival…

Structural Determinants for the Mode of Action of Imidazopyridine DS2 at δ-Containing γ-Aminobutyric Acid Type A Receptors
2021
Despite the therapeutic relevance of δ-containing γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) and the need for δ-selective compounds, the structural determinants for the mode and molecular site of action of δ-selective positive allosteric modulator imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine DS2 remain elusive. To guide the quest for insight, we synthesized a series of DS2 analogues guided by a structural receptor model. Using a fluorescence-based fluorometric imaging plate reader membrane potential assay, we found that the δ-selectivity and the pharmacological profile are severely affected by substituents in the 5-position of the imidazopyridine core scaffold. Interestingly, the 5-methyl, 5-bromo, and 5-chl…
AML-associated Flt3 kinase domain mutations show signal transduction differences compared with Flt3 ITD mutations
2005
Activating mutations of Flt3 are found in approximately one third of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are an attractive drug target. Two classes of Flt3 mutations occur: internal tandem duplications (ITDs) in the juxtamembrane and point mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain (TKD). We and others have shown that Flt3-ITD induced aberrant signaling including strong activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) and repression of CCAAT/estradiol-binding protein α (c/EBPα) and Pu.1. Here, we compared the signaling properties of Flt3-ITD versus Flt3-TKD in myeloid progenitor cells. We demonstrate that Flt3-TKD mutations induced autonomous growth of 32D ce…
