Implication of three isoforms of PLA2in human T-cell proliferation
2002
We observed that human (Jurkat) T-cells constitutively expressed the mRNA, encoding for the four isoforms of phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)), i.e. two secretory (type IB and type V), and two cytosolic (type IV, Ca(2+)-dependent and type VI, Ca(2+)-independent). In order to assess whether these PLA(2) isoforms are active, we labeled Jurkat T-cells with [(3)H]arachidonic acid ([(3)H]AA) and determined its release into the extracellular medium in the presence of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and ionomycin. The three PLA(2) isoforms seem functional as aristolochic acid and bromoenol lactone (BEL), the respective inhibitors of type IB/type V and type VI PLA(2)s, significantly inhibited the r…
Organocatalytic Enantioselective Vinylogous Henry Reaction of 3,5-Dimethyl-4-nitroisoxazole with Trifluoromethyl Ketones
2017
The enantioselective vinylogous Henry reaction of 3,5-dimethyl-4-nitroisoxazole with trifluoromethyl ketones employing a bifunctional squaramide organocatalyst has been developed. A series of isoxazole bearing trifluoromethyl-substituted tertiary alcohols, 2-substituted (R)-1,1,1-trifluoro-3-(3-methyl-4-nitroisoxazol-5-yl)propan-2-ols, were obtained under these mild reaction conditions in good yields and moderate to good enantioselectivities
