天然竹红菌素粗品的光物理特性及机理分析

用SP-2558型光谱实验系统测得了天然竹红菌素粗品的三维荧光光谱,给出其随样品浓度变化的规律,进而利用软件和理论分析提出,天然竹红菌素粗品荧光光谱主要是竹红菌甲素（HA）和竹红菌乙素（HB）荧光光谱的贡献,HA的荧光光谱受其他成分影响较大,造成了短波峰的蓝移和长波峰的红移;HA与HB之间的辐射能量转移导致其荧光光谱中长波成分增加,从而形成较宽的谱段;由分子间氢键形成的多聚体会导致天然竹红菌素粗品溶液的发射峰随浓度的增加而红移,因而通过对天然竹红菌素粗品的浓度调控,可以在一定的范围内实现对发射光波段的调控,这对指导临床上的应用具有较高的参考价值。

Detection and direction-discrimination of diotic and dichotic ramp modulations in amplitude and phase

When the source of a tone moves with respect to a listener's ears, dichotic (or interaural) phase and amplitude modulations (PM and AM) are produced. Two experiments investigated the psychophysical characteristics of dichotic linear ramp modulations in phase and amplitude, and compared them with the psychophysics of diotic PM and AM. In experiment 1, subjects were substantially more sensitive to dichotic PM than diotic PM, but AM sensitivity was equivalent in the dichotic and diotic conditions. Thresholds for discriminating modulation direction were smaller than detection thresholds for dichotic AM, and both diotic AM and PM. Dichotic PM discrimination thresholds were similar to detection thresholds. In experiment 2, the effects of ramp duration were examined. Sensitivity to dichotic AM and PM, and diotic AM increased as duration was increased from 20 ms to 200 ms. The functions relating sensitivity to ramp duration differed across the stimuli; sensitivity to dichotic PM increased more rapidly than sensitivity to dichotic or diotic AM. This was also reflected in shorter time-constants and minimum integration times for dichotic PM detection. These findings support the hypothesis that the analysis of dichotic PM and AM rely on separate mechanisms.     

Optical absorption of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline derivatives: Molecular dynamics modeling

Paper deals with quantum chemical modeling of the optical absorption spectra of 6-fluoro, 7-trifluoromethyl, 6-cyano, 6-carboethoxy and 6-tert-butyl derivatives of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoline. The calculations are performed by means of the semiempirical quantum chemical methods (AM1 or PM3) applied to the equilibrium molecular conformation in vacuo (T = 0 K) or molecular dynamic (MD) trajectories as obtained within fragmental or total MD simulations at T = 300 K. The results of these calculations are compared with the measured spectra of optical absorption. The quantum chemical analysis show that the dynamics of the methyl, trifluoromethyl, carboethoxy and tert-butyl groups practically does not influence the absorption spectra whereas the strongest their modifications are found to be related with dynamics of the aromatic group. The semiempirical method AM1 in combination with MD simulations gives for all dyes the best agreement between the calculated and measured spectral positions of absorption bands. In most cases the quantum chemical calculations describe properly the trends of their changes depending on the lateral substituent.     

Quantitative assessment of reparameterized PM6 (rPM6) for hydrogen abstraction reactions

In the present study, the usability of semiempirical quantum mechanical methods for calculating bond dissociation energy (BDE) was investigated systematically. Density functional theory (DFT) methods with the B3LYP and B97-1 functionals were used for comparison. We introduced a new test set for BDE, called BDE200, which covers a wide range of compounds including large aromatic compounds. The use of BDE200 test set revealed that the accuracy of the methods studied was ordered from best to worst as: B97-1 > B3LYP > rPM6 >> PM7 > PM6 > AM1 > PM3. In addition to the improved accuracy of rPM6 for predicting BDE, it was found that rPM6 can provide a quantitative correlation between BDE values and reactivity. The rPM6 calculated activation enthalpies for C–H hydroxylation catalysed by the compound I of cytochrome P450 were proportional to the calculated and experimental C–H BDE values, in line with the results of previous DFT studies. We believe that rPM6 can help develop a database, for instance, for the determination of site of metabolism.     

Influence of the special features of atomic structure of Si24 and MeSi24 (Me = Na or K) nanoparticles on their electron properties

The influence of atomic structure of silicon nanoparticles on the distribution of total and partial state densities in the valence and conductivity bands as well as on the valence band and gap widths is analyzed based on the calculated geometrical and electron structure of the Si ₂₄ and MeSi ₂₄ (Me = Na or K) clusters. Semi-empirical AM1 and PM3 methods are used for calculations. The adequacy of calculations is confirmed by their comparison with the available experimental data. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 2, pp. 46–51, February, 2006.     

Conformational analysis and vibrational spectroscopic studies on dapsone

In this study, the theoretical conformation analysis of free dapsone has been performed by single point energy calculations at both semi-empirical PM3 and DFT/B3LYP-3-21G theory levels and three stable conformers were determined. Both the IR and Raman spectra of the molecule in solid phase have been recorded. The IR intensities and harmonic vibrational wavenumbers of each conformer were calculated by DFT method at B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) theory level. For the fundamental characterization, the total energy distribution (TED) calculations of the vibrational modes were done using parallel quantum mechanic solution program (SQM) and the fundamental modes were assigned. The theoretical results are in agreement with the experimental ones.     

Blue light-activated hypocrellin B damages ovarian cancer cells

In the present study, a novel blue light source from LED was used to activate hypocrellin B in ovarian cancer HO-8910 cells. Hypporellin B concentration was kept at 2.5 μM and light doses from 0.5–4.0 J/cm². Photocytotoxicity was investigated using MTT reduction assay and light microscopy after light irradiation. Cellular morphology was observed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). MTT assay showed that the cytotoxicity of blue light-activated hypocrellin B in HO-8910 cells increased along with light dose. The observations from light microscopy reinforced the above results. TEM showed that microvillin disappearance, vacuole formation, chromatin condensation, and topical apoptotic body were observed in the cells treated by both light and hypocrellin B. The findings demonstrated that blue light from LED source could effectively activate hypocrellin B to cause the destruction of HO-8910 cells, indicating that Blue light-activated hypocrellin B might be potential therapeutic strategy in the management of ovarian cancer.     

Temperature dependence of ratio between dielectric anisotropy and order parameter in fluorinated nematic liquid crystals

Temperature dependence of ratio between dielectric anisotropy and order parameter of fluorinated nematic liquid crystal is investigated by using a semi-empirical molecular orbital package that can accurately calculate an angle between molecular dipole moment and long axis. We optimize the molecular conformations with three semi-empirical Hamiltonians AM1, PM3 and PM5, and then make a comparison between computational results and experimental measurements. It is shown that the results obtained from AM1 method are in good agreement with the measurements. The present study offers an applicable method to predict the dielectric properties of liquid crystal material.     

Molecular structure and IR spectra of bromomethanes by DFT and post-Hartree-Fock MP2 and CCSD(T) calculations

The molecular parameters (geometries, rotational constants, dipole moments) and vibrational IR spectra (harmonic wavenumbers, absolute intensities) of bromomethanes (CH₃Br, CH₂Br₂, CHBr₃, CBr₄) are predicted by a density functional theory with the hybrid Becke3-LYP functional (DFT) and post-Hartree-Fock methods (MP2, CCSD(T)) using a 6-311G(2d,2p)-type basis set. The MP2 calculations are carried out with different numbers of frozen core orbitals to find how the number of bromine orbitals used for electron correlation influences the predicted molecular parameters and IR spectra of the species in question. Three options were used: (a) all electrons (full), with both the core and valence orbitals considered; (b) partial frozen core option (pfc), when the orbitals up to 3p of bromine were frozen; and (c) full frozen core option (ffc), when all core orbitals up to 3d were frozen. The CCSD(T) calculations for geometric parameters were carried out with both the pfc and ffc options, while for the prediction of the IR spectra only the ffc option was used. In addition, the calculations at the DFT and MP2(pfc) levels with inclusion of f functions on carbon and bromine atoms in bromomethanes (and also the CCSD(T)(pfc) calculations for CH₃Br) were carried out to predict the changes in the geometric parameters and/or vibrational IR spectra of the molecules upon inclusion of f functions The geometries of bromomethanes (particularly the CBr bond lengths) are predicted better by the DFT and CCSD(T) calculations when the f functions (in particular on bromine atom) are included, while the MP2 calculations without f functions are good enough for correct predictions of the molecular geometries. The molecular parameters and vibrational IR spectra of bromomethanes in question and their deuterated species predicted by the DFT, MP2(ffc) and CCSD(T)(ffc) with the 6-311G(2d,2p) basis set agree well with the available experimental data.
