Mechanism of leptin expression in breast cancer cells: role of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α

2007

We reported previously that the obesity hormone leptin is overexpressed in breast cancer biopsies. Here, we investigated molecular mechanisms involved in this process, focusing on conditions that are associated with obesity, that is, hyperinsulinemia and induction of hypoxia. By using quantitative real-time PCR, immunofluorescent detection of proteins and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, we found that treatment of MCF-7 breast cancer cells with high doses of insulin or the hypoxia-mimetic agent CoCl2, or culturing the cells under hypoxic conditions significantly increased the expression of leptin mRNA and protein. Notably, the greatest leptin mRNA and protein expression were observed und…

Syntheses and structure of bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)dithiophosphinato complexes

1997

Bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)phosphane Cp*2PH reacts with sulfur under basic conditions to give the corresponding dithiophosphinate salts M+ CP*2PS−2 (5 M+ = HNEt+3, 6 M+ = Li+), which are formed via the intermediate CP*2P(S)H (4). Both salts on treatment with cobalt(II) chloride give rise to the transition metal dithiophosphinate 7. The structures of this new type of diorganodithiophosphinate complexes in the solid state have been investigated. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Heteroatom Chem 8: 521–525, 1997

Heat-induced charge transfer in cobalt iron cyanide

2006

The heating of Co(2+) ferricyanide above 801C induces an inner charge transfer from Co(2+) towards Fe(III) to form the mixed valence system Co(2+)Co(III) ferri- ferro-cyanide. This charge transfer takes place preserving the material framework and forming a solid solution of the initial and final species. The cell edge of the cubic cell (Fm-3m) of this solid solution follows a regular variation with

Single-Ion Magnetic Behavior in CoII-CoIII Mixed-Valence Dinuclear and Pseudodinuclear Complexes

2017

Two CoII–CoIII mixed-valence complexes of molecularformulas [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)2][Co2(H2L)2(H2O)(m-phth)]·8(H2O) {1;H2L2–= 2-[(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)amino]-2-(hydroxymethyl)propane-1,3-diolato, m-phth = 1,3-benzene-dicarboxylate} and [Co4(H2L)4(H2O)2(ppda)]·2(dmf)·3.2(H2O) {2;ppda = 1,4-phenylenediacrylate; dmf = N,N-dimethyl-formamide} were synthesized and characterized by single-crys-tal X-ray diffraction and magnetic studies at low temperature.The structural determination reveals that 1 is composed of di-nuclear ion pairs, namely, a cationic [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)2]+(1+) andan anionic [Co2(H2L)2(H2O)(m-phth)]–(1–) unit. In each of these ions, the CoIIand CoIIIcenters present distorted octa…

Microwave-based gas sensor with phthalocyanine film at room temperature

2013

Abstract This work presents the development of a microwave gas sensor at room temperature. The design of the sensor includes a coplanar grounded wave guide where is deposited a molecular gas sensing material. In this study, the sensitive material is a thin layer of cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc), sensitive to ammonia and toluene. Submitted to an electromagnetic incident wave in the microwave range, the sensor response is a reflected wave. In the presence of pollutant, the reflected wave shape is specific to the species concentrations. The results interpretation is led at each frequency by the evaluation of the reflected coefficient, which traduces the ratio between the reflected wave over the…

Functionnalized Surface Acoustic Wave Sensors for the Detection of Hazardous Gases

2018

International audience; In this work, we show the capabilities of Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices to probe the properties of gas sensitive materials for the manufacturing of hazardous gas sensors. The great capabilities of cobalt corroles for the trapping of carbon monoxide (CO) were exploited to produce selective sensors. These corroles were deposited on SAW delay lines surfaces and then exposed to carbon monoxide (CO) in standard conditions. Concentrations of a few hundreds of ppb were measured emphasizing the interest of such sensors for the detection of CO. Another type of sensitive layers exhibiting specific porosity adapted to the trapping of formaldehyde (CH$_2$O) were deposited …
