Objectives: Macrophages are determinant cells for atherosclerotic lesion formation. The objectives of this study were to incorporate macrophage target ligands on the surface of biocompatible and biodegradable epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)-loaded nanoparticles (Enano), to evaluate their target specificity to macrophages and antiatherogenic effects in vitro and in vivo. Method: The target speci...

Dinitrogen release from arylpentazole: a picosecond time-resolved infrared, spectroelectrochemical, and DFT computational study.

p-(Dimethylamino)phenyl pentazole, DMAP-N5 (DMAP = Me2N-C6H4), was characterized by picosecond transient infrared spectroscopy and infrared spectroelectrochemistry. Femtosecond laser excitation at 310 or 330 nm produces the DMAP-N5 (S1) excited state, part of which returns to the ground state (τ = 82 ± 4 ps), while DMAP-N and DMAP-N3 (S0) are generated as double and single N2-loss photoproducts...

Cellular influx, efflux, and anabolism of 3-carboranyl thymidine analogs: potential boron delivery agents for neutron capture therapy.

3-[5-{2-(2,3-Dihydroxyprop-1-yl)-o-carboran-1-yl}pentan-1-yl]thymidine (N5-2OH) is a first generation 3-carboranyl thymidine analog (3CTA) that has been intensively studied as a boron-10 ((10)B) delivery agent for neutron capture therapy (NCT). N5-2OH is an excellent substrate of thymidine kinase 1 and its favorable biodistribution profile in rodents led to successful preclinical NCT of rats be...
