Discovery of a Novel 5-HT_(2A) Inhibitor by Pharmacophore-based Virtual Screening

The serotonin 2A(5-HT2A) receptor has been implicated in several neurological conditions and potent 5-HT2A antagonists have therapeutic effects in the treatment of schizo phrenia and depression.In this study,a potent novel 5-HT2A inhibitor 05245768 with a Ki value of (593.89±34.10) nmol/L was discovered by integrating a set of computational approaches and experiments(protein structure prediction,pharmacophore-based virtual screening,automated molecular docking and pharmacological bioassay).The 5-HT2A recept...     

Loading of cold ~(87)Rb atom with diffuse light in an integrating sphere

<正>Cold ~(87)Rb atom's loading in an integrating sphere with diffuse light is analyzed theoretically and experimentally. The experimental results show that diffuse light cooling has the greatest efficiency to cool the most atoms when the red detuning between the frequencies of cooling light and atom transition is about 3.3r(Γis the natural linewidth,6.065 MHz).Theoretical analysis using rate equation and numerical calculations on the cold atom number and loading time agree with the experimental results.This integrating sphere cooling would be a novel method for cooling atoms and lead to a new and robust cold atom source for atomic clock.     

Λ-Shaped optoelectronic materials based on Trger's base

Trger's base (TB) is a well-known chiral molecule with rigid concave shape that makes it applicable in different areas such as superamolecular chemistry,molecular recognition,biological labeling,and so on.In this article,we briefly summarize some recent research progress in the optoelectronic properties of novel TB analogues and their applications in optoelectronic field with emphasis on the developments achieved in our group.     

Structure Characteristic and Catalase Activity of Vitreoscilla Hemoglobin Bound with Membrane

Lipid-bound [VHb(406)] and lipid-free [VHb(402)] wide type Vitreoscilla hemoglobin were separated from E. coli BL21(DE3). The RZ is 3.30 for [VHb(406)] and 3.15 for [VHb(402)], respectively. VHb(406) shows a characteristic absorption band at 626 nm, while VHb(402) shows one at 644 nm, and it has more α-helix than VHb(402). Data of Raman spectra experiment shows under the excitation wavelength 488 nm, υ4 vibration of both VHb(402) and VHb(406) had a pure and strong signal at 1375 cm-1, which proves that iron...     

桂枝的引药作用机制及其对环丙沙星在小鼠体内分布的影响

研究了桂枝和桂皮醛对环丙沙星在小鼠体内分布的影响,并基于此探讨了桂枝作为引药使用的作用机制.实验中将小鼠分为三组,分别灌胃生理盐水、桂枝(50gkg-1)和桂皮醛(0.25mLkg-1),然后对三组小鼠尾静脉注射环丙沙星(20mgkg-1),并以荧光法测定不同时间点小鼠体内各组织中环丙沙星的浓度.结果显示桂枝、桂皮醛均促进了环丙沙星在四肢的分布,桂枝与桂皮醛组相对于生理盐水组可将环丙沙星在四肢的含量提高约40%~200%,证实了桂枝引药到达肢节的作用.桂枝与桂皮醛组对环丙沙星分布情况的影响没有显著性差异,说明桂皮醛很可能是发挥桂枝引药作用的主要物质.

C~l -G_V TRIVIALITY OF FUNCTION GERMS AND NEWTON POLYHEDRA

We provide estimates on the degree of C l GV determinacy ( G is one of Mather’s groups R or K ) of function germs which are defined on analytic variety V and satisfies a non-degeneracy condition with respect to some Newton polyhedron. The result gives an explicit order such that the C l geometrical structure of a function germ is preserved after higher order perturbations, which generalizes the result on C l G triviality of function germs given by M.A.S.Ruas.
