Dynamics of BF 4 - anion reorientation in the spin-crossover compound [Fe(1-n-propyl-1H-tetrazole) 6 ](BF 4 ) 2 and in its Zn II analogue

1999

19 F and 11 B spin-lattice relaxation times were measured in [ Zn ( ptz ) 6 ] ( BF 4 ) 2 and in the spin-crossover compound [ Fe ( ptz ) 6 ] ( BF 4 ) 2 . For both compounds BF 4 - anion reorientation is active above 50 K. For [ Zn ( ptz ) 6 ] ( BF 4 ) 2 , the anion-reorientation dynamics is different in the temperature regions of 50-90 K, 90-120 K, and above 150 K; between 120 and 150 K it changes rapidly reflecting a structural change. In [ Fe ( ptz ) 6 ] ( BF 4 ) 2 the mechanism for the paramagnetic relaxation involving the 19 F nuclei is found to be of the diffusion-limited type according to the theory of Lowe and Tse. The present results prove that the spin-crossover takes place in a dy…

Latvijas-Amerikas Savienoto Valstu attiecības 1930. gadu otrajā pusē

2020

Bakalaura darba ‘’Latvijas- Amerikas Savienoto Valstu attiecības 1930. gadu otrajā pusē’’ mērķis ir analizēt Latvijas- ASV attiecības 1930. gadu otrajā pusē, apskatot diplomātiskās un ekonomiskās saiknes starp valstīm, vērtējot katras valsts situāciju un nozīmi pasaulē. Darbs ietver Latvijas- ASV politiskās un diplomātiskās attiecības no 1935. gada, kad Latvija atjaunoja sūtniecību Vašingtonā, līdz pat Latvijas okupācijai 1940. gadā, apskatot arī Samnera Velsa deklarācijas pieņemšanu, un sūtniecības Vašingtonā tālāko darbību. Secinājumi parāda, ka, lai gan ASV nevarēja garantēt Latvijas neatkarību, tomēr šajā laika posmā pastāvēja draudzīgas diplomātiskas attiecības starp valstīm, ko arī pi…

Bone metastases in soft tissue sarcoma patients: A survey of natural, prognostic value, and treatment.

2012

10063 Background: Given the limited data currently available, we surveyed the natural history of bone metastases in patients affected by soft tissue sarcoma (STS). Methods: This retrospective, multicenter, observational study evaluated data from 135 patients with STS metastatic to the bone who presented between 2001 and 2011. For all patients, we recorded the primary tumor histological subtype, bone metastases characteristics (onset, site), type of treatment received (surgery, radiotherapy, zoledronic acid), type and frequency of skeletal related events (SRE) and disease outcome. Results: The most represented histological subtypes among the enrolled patients were leiomyosarcoma (27%), angi…

Diagnosis and therapy of cutaneous and mucocutaneous Leishmaniasis in Germany

2011

The incidence of cutaneous and mucocutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL/MCL) is increasing globally, also in Germany, although the cases are imported and still low in number. The current evidence for the different therapies has many limitations due to lack of sufficient studies on the different Leishmania species with differing virulence. So far there is no international gold standard for the optimal management. The aim of the German joint working group on Leishmaniasis, formed by the societies of Tropical Medicine (DTG), Chemotherapy (PEG) and Dermatology (DDG), was to establish a guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of CL and MCL in Germany, based on evidence (Medline search yielded 400 artic…

Synthesis and herbicidal activity of isoxazole-substituted 1-aminoethylphosphonates and 1-hydroxyethylphosphonates

1994

Isoxazole‐substituted 1‐aminoethyl‐ and 1‐hydroxyethyiphosphonates were synthesized by a multi‐step procedure and were screened for herbicidal activity against Lepidium sativum L. and Cucumis sativus L. All the synthesized compounds exhibited notable herbicidal activity.

The Peptide Hemopressin Acts through CB1Cannabinoid Receptors to Reduce Food Intake in Rats and Mice

2010

Hemopressin is a short, nine amino acid peptide (H-Pro-Val-Asn-Phe-Lys-Leu-Leu-Ser-His-OH) isolated from rat brain that behaves as an inverse agonist at the cannabinoid receptor CB1, and is shown here to inhibit agonist-induced receptor internalization in a heterologous cell model. Since this peptide occurs naturally in the rodent brain, we determined its effect on appetite, an established central target of cannabinoid signaling. Hemopressin dose-dependently decreases night-time food intake in normal male rats and mice, as well as in obeseob/obmale mice, when administered centrally or systemically, without causing any obvious adverse side effects. The normal, behavioral satiety sequence is …

Hypothalamic CB1 cannabinoid receptors regulate energy balance in mice.

2012

Cannabinoid type 1 (CB(1)) receptor activation is generally considered a powerful orexigenic signal and inhibition of the endocannabinoid system is beneficial for the treatment of obesity and related metabolic diseases. The hypothalamus plays a critical role in regulating energy balance by modulating both food intake and energy expenditure. Although CB(1) receptor signaling has been implicated in the modulation of both these mechanisms, a complete understanding of its role in the hypothalamus is still lacking. Here we combined a genetic approach with the use of adeno-associated viral vectors to delete the CB(1) receptor gene in the adult mouse hypothalamus and assessed the impact of such ma…

Effects of PPARγ agonists on the expression of leptin and vascular endothelial growth factor in breast cancer cells.

2013

The obesity hormone leptin has been implicated in breast cancer development. Breast cancer cells express the leptin receptor and are able to synthesize leptin in response to obesity-related stimuli. Furthermore, leptin is a positive regulator of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and high levels of both proteins are associated with worse prognosis in breast cancer patients. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) ligands are therapeutic agents used in patient with Type 2 diabetes and obesity which have recently been studied for their potential anti-tumor effect. Here, we studied if these compounds, ciglitazone and GW1929, can affect the expression of leptin and VEGF in b…
