Coupling of Contact Sensitizers to Thiol Groups is a Key Event for the Activation of Monocytes and Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells
2003
Strong contact sensitizers are able to induce distinct signal transduction mechanisms in antigen-presenting cells by coupling to cell proteins. The predominant target structures of haptens are thought to be thiol and amino groups in cysteine and lysine residues. We studied whether coupling of small reactive chemicals to thiol or amino groups might be responsible for the activation of monocytes and mature monocyte-derived dendritic cells. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated in vitro with subtoxic concentrations of the strong haptens 5-chloro-2-methylisothiazolinone plus 2-methylisothiazolinone and 2, 4, 6-trinitrochlorobenzene, the thiol-reactive reagents N-hydroxymaleim…
Pt(II) complex @mesoporous silica: preparation, characterization and study of release
2016
Cisplatin analogs, having cytotoxic activity higher than that exerted by cisplatin, have recently triggered considerable interest by the community. The cis-[PtCl2(DMSO)HL]·2DMSO, where HL = 7-amino-2-(methylthio)[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid, has shown a potent cytotoxic activity on HepG2 hepatocarcinoma cells, while under identical conditions, it did not affect normal immortalized human liver cells (Chang). In this work, the above complex has been incorporated into MCM41 mesoporous silica, pure and functionalized with amino group, which is considered one of the best host for a drug delivery system for carrying high dosages of a variety of drugs in their mesopores.

13C-NMR Based Evaluation of the Electronic and Steric Interactions in Aromatic Amines
2005
Abstract: Chemical shifts of the para carbon atoms, δ(13C-4), in a series of aromatic amines were used to calculate the Ãp, ÃR and ÃOR substituent constants for different amino groups. 1-Pyrrolidino, N,N-di-n-butylamino and N,N-diethylamino groups were found to be the most strong electron-donors. ortho-Substitution decreases the donor properties of the amino group. The amino groups in 2,6-di-i-propylaniline and N,N-2,6-tetramethylaniline have very weak electron-donor properties. The nitrogen atom in benzoquinuclidine and N,N-dimethyl-2,6-di-i-propylaniline have an electron-acceptor character. The calculated substituent constants of the amino groups studied are consistent with the s…
