The title compounds, C12H13NO4, are derived from lthreonine and dl-threonine, respectively. Hydrogen bonding in the chiral derivative, (2S/3R)-3-hydroxy-2-(1-oxoisoindolin2-yl)butanoic acid, consists of OÐHacid OalkylÐ H O Cindole chains [O O 2.659 (3) and 2.718 (3) AÊ ], CspÐH O and three CÐH arene interactions. In the (2R,3S/2S,3R) racemate, conventional carboxylic acid hydrogen bonding as cy...

Antibody-targeted chemotherapy with gemtuzumab ozogamicin (CMA-676, a CD33-targeted immunoconjugate of N-acetyl-gamma-calicheamicin dimethyl hydrazide [CalichDMH], a potent DNA-binding cytotoxic antitumor antibiotic) is a clinically validated therapeutic option for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, we describe the preclinical profile of another immunoconjugate of CalichDMH, CMC-...

A study was carried out to investigate the effects of dietary methionine source and level on plasma free amino acids patterns and the expression of genes involved in hepatic methionine metabolism in broiler breeders. A total of 2184 broiler breeders were assigned to 13 dietary treatments, with eight replicates per treatment. The 13 treatments included one control group and 12 additional treatme...

No therapies have been shown to accelerate recovery or prevent fibrosis after acute kidney injury (AKI). In part, this is because most therapeutic candidates have to be given at the time of injury and the diagnosis of AKI is usually made too late for drugs to be efficacious. Strategies to enhance post-AKI repair represent an attractive approach to address this. Using a phenotypic screen in zebr...

Using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection and electroantennographic detection in parallel (GC-FID/EAD), the active constituents of the sex attractant of male dung beetles of Kheper bonellii were located in the gas chromatogram of an extract of the secretion. These constituents were identified as propanoic acid, butanoic acid, indole, 3-methylindole (skatole) and methyl cis-cascar...

Synthesis, detailed structural characterization (X-ray, NMR, MS, IR, elemental analysis), and studies of toxicity, antioxidant activity and bioavailability of unique potent anti-atherosclerotic succinobucol-steroid conjugates are reported. The conjugates consist of, on one side, the therapeutically important drug succinobucol ([4-{2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-[(1-{[3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-(propan-...

Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus are key factors in the fermentation process and the final quality of dairy products worldwide. This study was performed to investigate the effects of the proportions of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus isolated from traditionally fermented dairy products in China and Mongolia on ...

A previously presented homogeneous assay method, named the excimer-forming two-probe nucleic acid hybridization (ETPH) method, is based on specific excimer formation between two pyrenes attached at the neighboring terminals of two sequential probe oligonucleotides complementary to a single target. In this study, we investigated assay conditions and optimal molecular design of probes for intense...

The use of medicinal plants played a crucial role in human survival for many years. Papea capensis is used mostly the Northern part South Africa and neighboring countries. woody tree was collected, shade dried, powdered. extraction experiments (ethanolic extract, methanol water extract) were done at Synexa Life Sciences. For purpose identifying biochemical elements present wood portion Pappea c...
