Enantioenriched tetrasubstituted thiochromanes have been synthesized using a tandem Michael addition-Knoevenagel reaction between 2-mercaptobenzaldehydes and benzylidenemalonates with a 9-epi-aminoquinine thiourea derivative as the catalyst. Steric and electron effects were found to affect profoundly the enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity of the reaction. 相似文献

Superoxide Dismutase-Loaded PLGA Nanoparticles Protect Cultured Human Neurons Under Oxidative Stress
Reddy MK Wu L Kou W Ghorpade A Labhasetwar V 《Applied biochemistry and biotechnology》2008,151(2-3):565-577
The objective of our study was to investigate the neuroprotective efficacy of superoxide dismutase (SOD), loaded in poly(D,L-lactide co-glycolide; PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs), in cultured human neurons challenged with hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))-induced oxidative stress. We hypothesized that the protected and sustained intracellular delivery of SOD encapsulated in NPs would demonstrate better neuroprotection from oxidative stress than either SOD or pegylated SOD (PEG-SOD) in solution. SOD-NPs (approximately 81 +/- 4 nm in diameter, 0.9% w/w SOD loading) released the encapsulated SOD in an active form with 8.2% cumulative release during the first 24 h, followed by a slower release thereafter. The results demonstrated that PLGA-NPs are compatible with human neurons, and the neuroprotective effect of SOD-NPs is dose-dependent, with efficacy seen at >100 U SOD, and less significant effects at lower doses. Neither SOD (25-200 U) nor PEG-SOD (100 U) in solution demonstrated the neuroprotective effect under similar conditions. The neuroprotective effect of SOD-NPs was seen up to 6 h after H(2)O(2)-induced oxidative stress, but the effect diminished thereafter. Confocal microscopic studies demonstrated better intracellular neuronal uptake of the encapsulated model protein (fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled BSA) than the protein in solution. Thus, the mechanism of efficacy of SOD-NPs appears to be due to the stability of the encapsulated enzyme and its better neuronal uptake after encapsulation. 相似文献

A low temperature microwave-assisted extraction method (MAE) is reported for the analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in airborne particulate matter (PM). The main parameters affecting the extraction efficiency (choice of extractants, microwave power, and extraction time) were investigated and optimized. The optimized procedure requires a 20 ml mixture of acetone:n-hexane (1:1) for extraction of PAHs in PM at 150 W of microwave energy (20 min extraction time). Clean-up of MAE extracts was not found to be necessary. The optimized method was validated using two different SRM (1648-urban particulate matter and 1649a, urban dust). The results obtained are in good agreement with certified values. PAHs recoveries for both reference materials were between 79 and 122% with relative standard deviation ranging from 3 to 21%. Detection limits were determined based on blank determination using two kinds of quartz filter substrates (n = 10), which ranged from 0.001 (0.03) ng m−3 (pg/μg) for B(k)Ft to 1.119 (37.3) for Naph in ng m−3 (pg/μg), respectively. The repeatability and day-to-day reproducibility obtained in this study were in the range of 4-16 and 3-25% for spiked standards and SRM 1649, respectively. The optimized and validated MAE technique was applied to the extraction of PAHs from a set of real world PM samples collected in Singapore. The sum of particulate-bound PAHs in outdoor PM ranged from 1.05 to 3.45 ng m−3 while that in indoor PM (cooking emissions) ranged from 27.6 to 75.7 ng m−3, respectively. 相似文献
