Cellular, local, and organismal responses to low O2 availability occur during processes such as anaerobic metabolism and wound healing and pathological conditions such as stroke and cancer. These responses include increases in glycolytic activity, vascularization, breathing, and red blood cell production. These responses are mediated in part by the hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), which receiv...

The asymmetric unit of the title structure, [CoCl2(C3H11NOP)4][CoCl4]2, consists of one half of the trans-dichlorido-tetra-kis-[(di-methyl-phosphor-yl)methanaminium]cobalt(II) tetra-cation lying on an inversion center and one tetra-chloridocobaltate(II) dianion on a general position. Four O-coordinated cationic (di-methyl-phosphor-yl)methanaminium (dpmaH(+)) ligands occupy the equatorial coordi...

These studies employed the synthetic linear DNA, poly dGdC, in the B and cobalt hexammine chloride (Co)-induced Z form to determine the effect of conformation on protein-DNA interactions. The rate of the reaction of the restriction endonucleases, Hha I and Cfo I, are reduced with Z DNA as compared to B DNA. The ability of both restriction endonucleases to react with an aggregate form of Z DNA (...

In this work, cobalt silicide nanowires were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition processes on Si (100) substrates with anhydrous cobalt chloride (CoCl2) as precursors. Processing parameters, including the temperature of Si (100) substrates, the gas flow rate, and the pressure of reactions were varied and studied; additionally, the physical properties of the cobalt silicide nanowires were m...

Male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were fed purified diets in which the carbohydrate component was either starch or refined sugar (sucrose). The addition to these diets of the ash prepared by the incineration of unrefined muscovado sugar prevented the deficiencies of Factor R seen in the offspring when the diets were not supplemented with ash. Analysis by neutron activation showed that the ash...

The title compound, [Co(C10H15)2]2[CoCl4]·2CH2Cl2, was isolated as a dichloromethane solvate and was formed in the reaction between lithium penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dienide and anyhydrous cobalt(II) chloride in tetra-hydro-furan. There are two deca-methyl-cobaltocenium cations, one tetrachloridocobaltate(II) anion and two di-chloro-methane solvent mol-ecules in the formula unit. There is a slig...

The influence of halide and isothiocyanate ions of the reduction wave of aquopentamminecobalt(‡V) and aquopentamminechromium(‡V) ions at the dropping mercury electrode has been studied by the measurements of current-potential and current-time curves. The cobalt (‡V) complex ion gives a kinetic-controlled reduction wave at more positive potentials than that of the reduction of cobalt(‡V) to coba...

Treatment of rats in vivo with cobalt chloride stimulated heme oxidation by hepatic microsomes to levels up to 800% above controls. This treatment also caused increases in liver weight and in total microsomal protein; in contrast, marked decreases were produced in microsomal oxidation of ethylmorphine (80%), and in cytochrome P-450 (60-70%) and heme (30-50%) contents. Cobalt chloride treatment ...

Some iron(II), cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes of the hybrid ligand 1-(diphenylphosphino)-2(2-pyridyl)ethane (dppe) and diphenyl-2-pyridylphosphine (dppp) have been synthesised and characterised. Analyses suggest tetrahedral structures in which the metal atoms are bonded to two chlorine atoms and to both phosphorus and nitrogen atoms for 1-(diphenylphosphino)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethane on one hand...
