为了寻找高效、低毒的抗肿瘤药物,基于分子杂交的策略,将苯并[b]氮杂?结构引入查尔酮母体结构中,设计了12个未见文献报道的苯并[b]氮杂?-查尔酮杂合物（7a~7l）。并以苯胺为原料,经N-烷基化、羰基化、水解、环化和Claisen-Schmidt缩合反应合成了7a~7l,其结构经¹HNMR, ¹³CNMR和HR-MS(ESI)表征。采用MTT法评估了目标化合物对人胃癌细胞（HGC-27）、人肝癌细胞（HepG2）、人非小细胞肺癌细胞（A549）和人正常胃粘膜上皮细胞（GES-1）的抗增殖活性,并进一步采用流式细胞术和蛋白印迹法实验在细胞和蛋白水平上探究了活性最优化合物的抗肿瘤机制。结果表明：目标化合物对HGC-27细胞表现出较高的抗增殖活性,其中化合物7d对HGC-27细胞的抗增殖活性最强(IC₅₀=0.78 μmol•L^-1),优于阳性对照顺铂(IC₅₀=7.38 μmol•L^-1),同时其对人正常细胞GES-1的毒性较低（IC₅₀=22.77 μmol•L^-1, SI=29.19）,弱于阳性对照顺铂（IC₅₀=9.51 μmol•L^-1, SI=1.29）。抗肿瘤机制研究表明:化合物7d能够将癌细胞HGC-27的细胞周期阻滞在G2/M期,并通过增加促凋亡蛋白Bax和降低抗凋亡蛋白Bcl-2的表达来诱导HGC-27细胞的凋亡。      

Chemical Composition and Antibacterial Activity of Lippia multiflora Moldenke Essential Oil from Different Regions of Angola

The purpose of the study was to determine the chemical composition and antibacterial activity of Lippia multiflora Moldenke essential oils (EOs) collected in different regions of Angola. Antibacterial activity was evaluated using the agar wells technique and vapour phase test. Analysis of the oils by GC/MS identified thirty-five components representing 67.5 to 100% of the total oils. Monoterpene hydrocarbons were the most prevalent compounds, followed by oxygenated monoterpenes. The content of the compounds varied according to the samples. The main components were Limonene, Piperitenone, Neral, Citral, Elemol, p-cymene, Transtagetone, and Artemisia ketone. Only one of the eleven samples contained Verbenone as the majority compound. In the vapour phase test, a single oil was the most effective against all the pathogens studied. The principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) of components of the selected EOs and inhibition zone diameter values of agar wells technique allowed us to identify a variability between the plants from the two provinces, but also intraspecific variability between sub-groups within a population. Each group of essential oils constituted a chemotype responsible for their bacterial inhibition capacity. The results presented here suggest that Angolan Lippia multiflora Moldenke has antibacterial properties and could be a potential source of antimicrobial agents for the pharmaceutical and food industry.     

Potential Role of Melatonin as an Adjuvant for Atherosclerotic Carotid Arterial Stenosis

Carotid artery stenosis (CAS) is an atherosclerotic disease characterized by a narrowing of the artery lumen and a high risk of ischemic stroke. Risk factors of atherosclerosis, including smoking, hypertension, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, aging, and disrupted circadian rhythm, may potentiate atherosclerosis in the carotid artery and further reduce the arterial lumen. Ischemic stroke due to severe CAS and cerebral ischemic/reperfusion (I/R) injury after the revascularization of CAS also adversely affect clinical outcomes. Melatonin is a pluripotent agent with potent anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and neuroprotective properties. Although there is a shortage of direct clinical evidence demonstrating the benefits of melatonin in CAS patients, previous studies have shown that melatonin may be beneficial for patients with CAS in terms of reducing endothelial damage, stabilizing arterial plaque, mitigating the harm from CAS-related ischemic stroke and cerebral I/R injury, and alleviating the adverse effects of the related risk factors. Additional pre-clinical and clinical are required to confirm this speculation.     

Multiple Regulation Effects of Ammonium Acetate on ZnO Growth Process in Chemical Bath Deposition

Chemical bath deposition method has been used to synthesize a variety of ZnO morphology structures. However, the specificity and interaction of acetate and ammonium ions with ZnO crystal during the growth process remain elusive. This study contributes to understand the roles of ammonium acetate on the growth mechanism of ZnO in Zn(NO₃)₂-HMTA system. The growth process indicates that the nucleation experienced Zn²⁺-layered basic zinc salts (LBZs)-ZnO process, while the self-assembled unit changed from urchin-shaped, rod-shaped to a fully coupled twin-shaped structure with increasing ammonium acetate concentration. Ammonium acetate dominates the growth process by combing the ligand-ligand interaction of acetate ions binding to the same Zn-rich (0001) polar surface and ammonium ions regulating hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) hydrolysis. Relatively regular hexagonal wurtzite structure and a dissolve-renucleation-regrowth process which retains the twin-shaped template and renucleates at the same position are observed at ∼10 mM ammonium acetate. Photoelectrochemistry (PEC) measurements show that the uniform hexagonal ZnO rods (Y-10, the sample named as Y-x (x represents x mM ammonium acetate, herein, x is 10 mM)) have a maximum photocurrent density of 1.54 mA cm⁻² at 1.23 V (vs. RHE), much higher than that of the dumbbell-shaped ZnO rods (Y-50, 0.20 mA cm⁻²) at the same voltage. These results provide a further explanation of morphology regulation mechanisms on ZnO synthesis processes and pave the road for more practical applications.

在油包水的乳液体系中,通过原位合成的方法使羟基磷灰石(HAP)在明胶链上化学沉积,改变明胶溶液的浓度,制得了一系列的明胶/HAP复合物微球.采用X射线衍射仪(XRD)、傅里叶变换红外光谱仪(FTIR)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)和热失重分析仪(TGA)等对产物的组成、形貌以及热失重情况进行了表征.结果表明,明胶用量对复合物微球中HAP的形成具有重要影响.在明胶溶液浓度为0.025 g/mL时,明胶分子链提供的结合位点恰好与溶液中游离的Ca²⁺、PO₄^3-等离子达到平衡状态,复合物微球中无机相含量达40%,这是明胶与HAP以化学键合的形式结合所能得到的最大值.     

红外光谱法研究成核剂对聚丙烯光氧化降解的影响

采用红外光谱和显微红外光谱,对添加两种α成核剂(TM-1、TM-3)和一种β成核剂(TMB-5)的聚丙烯(PP)的自然光氧化降解行为及机理进行了研究。结果表明,添加成核剂前后,PP的光氧化降解产物均含有酮、羧酸、酯、醇和不饱和烃等。三种成核剂的加入并没有改变PP的光氧化降解机理和降解产物,但都对PP的光氧化反应起了一定的加速作用。各体系的光氧化速率依次为：PP/TMB-5>PP/TM-3>PP/TM-1>PP。PP与添加成核剂的PP中的光氧化程度沿深度的分布表现出相似的规律：表面处的羰基指数最高,自曝晒表面向内部,羰基指数逐渐降低,到约250 μm处减小到约为0,这个范围称之为表面氧化层。表面氧化层的厚度不随曝晒时间的不同而不同,而是由紫外光的穿透能力、氧气的扩散、尤其是加工时样品中的温度梯度所决定的。

基于多尺度分解的超光谱图像异常检测

提出了一种基于多尺度分解的超光谱图像异常检测算法。在目标和背景均未知的前提下,利用光谱和空间两种信息完成对异常目标信号的定位,从而实现超光谱遥感数据中异常目标检测。首先利用非下采样塔式变换对超光谱图像进行分解,将其划分为不同尺度子块;然后依据超光谱图像同一波段不同尺度空间内相邻系数的相关性,采用不同波段各个尺度空间的反锐化掩模方法优化背景数据分布,从而抑制异常数据对背景的干扰;最后利用设计的核RX算子得到异常目标检测结果。为验证方法的有效性,利用真实和模拟的AVIRIS数据进行了实验,并与经典RX算法相比较,实验结果表明,基于非下采样塔式分解的异常检测方法具有更好的检测性能和较低的虚警。
