This work takes advantage of one of the hallmarks of cancer, that is, the presence of tumor infiltrating cells of the immune system and leukocyte-secreted enzymes, to promote the activation of an anticancer drug at the tumor site. The peptidomimetic integrin ligand cyclo(DKP-RGD) was found to accumulate on the surface of αvβ3 integrin-expressing human renal cell carcinoma 786-O cells. The ligand was conjugated to the anticancer drug paclitaxel through a Asn-Pro-Val (NPV) tripeptide linker, which is a substrate of neutrophil-secreted elastase. In vitro linker cleavage assays and cell antiproliferative experiments demonstrate the efficacy of this tumor-targeting conjugate, opening the way to potential therapeutic applications. 相似文献
Coordination of ambiphilic diphosphine–silane ligands [o‐(iPr2P)C6H4]2Si(R)F (R=F, Ph, Me) to AuCl affords pentacoordinate neutral silicon compounds in which the metal atom acts as a Lewis base. X‐ray diffraction analyses, NMR spectroscopy, and DFT calculations substantiate the presence of Au→Si interactions in these complexes, which result in trigonal‐bipyramidal geometries around silicon. The presence of a single electron‐withdrawing fluorine atom is sufficient to observe coordination of the silane as a σ‐acceptor ligand, provided it is positioned trans to gold. The nature of the second substituent at silicon (R=F, Ph, Me) has very little influence on the magnitude of the Au→Si interaction, in marked contrast to N→Si adducts. According to variable‐temperature and 2D EXSY NMR experiments, the apical/equatorial positions around silicon exchange in the slow regime of the NMR timescale. The two forms, with the fluorine atom in trans or cis position to gold, were characterized spectroscopically and the activation barrier for their interconversion was estimated. The bonding and relative stability of the two isomeric structures were assessed by DFT calculations. 相似文献
A series of acetone-sensitized photodecarboxylation reactions involving phthalimides have been investigated using conventional and microphotochemistry. Both, intra- and intermolecular transformations were compared. In all cases examined, the reactions performed in microreactors were superior in terms of conversions or isolated yields. These findings unambiguously prove the advantage of microphotochemistry over conventional photochemical techniques. 相似文献
This article investigates the applicability of HPLC-UV, ultra performance LC-evaporative light-scattering detection (UPLC-ELSD), HPLC-ESI(+)-MS and HPLC-hybrid linear ion trap (LTQ) Orbitrap MS for the analysis of different non-ionic antistatic additives, Span 20, Span 60, Span 65, Span 80, Span 85 (sorbitan fatty acid esters), Atmer 129 (glycerol fatty acid ester) and Atmer 163 (ethoxylated alkylamine). Several alkyl chain length or different degrees of esterification of polyol derivatives can be present in commercial mixtures of these polymer additives. Therefore, their identification and quantification is complicated. Qualitative composition of the studied compounds was analysed by MS. HPLC-UV, UPLC-ELSD and HPLC-LTQ Orbitrap MS methods were applied to the quantitative determination of the different Spans, Atmer 129 and Atmer 163, respectively. Quality parameters of these methods were established and no derivatization was necessary. 相似文献
Six secondary metabolites from the methanolic extract of Sweetia panamensis (Fabaceae) bark were isolated and characterised. Along with the pyrones desmethylangonine β-d-O-glucopyranoside and desmethylangonine β-d-O-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-d-glucopyranoside, already reported in this species, 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid (chlorogenic acid), 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid, 3-O-caffeoylquinic acid and the isoflavonoid 5-O-methylgenistein 7-O-β-d-glucopyranoside were isolated for the first time from S. panamensis. Additionally, an LC-ESI-MS qualitative analysis was performed and an ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) method was developed and validated for the determination of these compounds. The UPLC method was applied to the quantitative analysis of plant samples. Pyrones and caffeoylquinic acids resulted to be the main compounds in the extract; in particular desmethylangonine β-d-O-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)-O-β-d-glucopyranoside was the most abundant compound.

Nucleophilic substitution of vinyl β-iodo Baylis-Hillman acetates using 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2] octane (DABCO) and then KCN, provides a stereoselective method for the synthesis of the corresponding β-cyano Baylis-Hillman acetates in high yields. 相似文献
We present laser action in a single crystal fluoride fiber obtained by the micro-pulling-down technique. The 700 μm diameter and 1 cm long Nd:LiYF4 fiber was pumped by a beam shaped diode bar emitting at 806 nm. A peak power of 300 mW was achieved with a slope efficiency of 12%. When considering the pump power fraction absorbed by the laser mode, a slope efficiency of 37% was achieved. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a Nd: LiYF4 fiber laser. 相似文献
