Coupling Reaction of 4-Chloro-7-H-Pyrrolo[2,3-d]Pyrimidine with 2,3,5-Tri-O-Acetyl-β-D-Ribofuranosyl Chloride

Tubercidin (4-amino-7--D-riobofuranosyl-7-H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine) 1, an antibio-tic substance produced in the culture broth of Streptomyces tubericidus1, is an adenosine analog in which N-7 is replaced by a carbon atom. It has attracted much attention due to the biological activities for the growth inhibition of certain tumors, and many derivatives of tubercidin have been synthesized2-5.For the synthesis of tubercidin analogs, 4-chloro-7-H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl--D-r…

Synthesis of La(III), Y(III) complexes with polyglycol aldehyde-amino acid Schiff base and their high resolution solid state13C NMR spectra

La (III), Y(III) complexes wit11 diglycol aldehyde his-arginine (H₂DAAR) and tetraglycol aldehyde bislysine (H₂TALY) Schiff bases were synthesized. Thcy were characterized and formulated as La (H₂DAAR) (NO₃)₃. 6H₂0 and Y (H₂TALY) (NO₃)₃. 5H₂0 separately by elemental analyses. The obtained complexes were investigated in detail by high resolution solid state (HRSS)¹³C NMR using cross polarization, magic angle spinning (CPMAS). and total suppression of sidebands (TOSS) techniques. The results are supported by the liquid state 2D-’H-¹³C COSY NMR spectra. Some new information about the splitting peaks of¹³C for -CH = N- group and alkene carbon bands, etc. in HRSS¹³C NMR spectra are given.

Lysophosphatidylcholine—biomarker of Metformin action: studied using UPLC/MS/MS

An UPLC/MS/MS based metabonomic method was developed and applied to the elucidation of biomarker of metformin action. The plasma metabolite profiling in healthy volunteers before and after per os metformin was determined with UPLC/MS/MS and analyzed by using multivariate statistics. Significant difference in endogenous metabolite profiles was revealed before and after administration of metformin. Four biomarkers found were lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs), and their structures were tentatively identified to be 16:0 LPC, 18:0 LPC, 18:1 LPC and 18:2 LPC according to the molecular ions information and corresponding fragments of product ion scan. Lysophosphatidylcholine in blood may be involved in metformin treatment. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Shape optimization of coronary artery stent based on a parametric model

The implantation of intravascular stent (IVS) is a kind of coronary angioplasty to restore the blood flow perfusion to the downstream of the heart muscle tissue. The superior mechanical properties of a stent guarantee the successful implantation. This paper intends to improve the mechanical properties of MAC STENT^TM by utilizing optimization theory instead of the conventional trial-and-error approach. In order to achieve this goal, firstly, a reliable procedure of finite element analysis (FEA) is established based on a parametric geometric model. The FEA overcomes the difficulties due to nonlinearities such as elasto-plasticity, large deformation, large strains and contact. It can simulate the stent's deformations during a loading scheme of three phases without any possible failures or irregularities. Secondly, a single objective function, which includes the main mechanical properties of stents, is proposed to replace the initial multi-objective function and then an optimization model is formulated. An optimal design of MAC-J09-3.0 stent is obtained after successful execution of the optimizing process using 41 loops. Its comprehensive mechanical properties are largely improved. It is concluded that the optimization theory is very useful and efficient in the studies of coronary artery stents, although the optimization task encounters many severe difficulties and requires extensive calculation. The result also shows that the single objective function proposed in this paper is practical.     

Discovery of New Natural Products by Intact‐Cell Mass Spectrometry and LC‐SPE‐NMR: Malbranpyrroles,Novel Polyketides from Thermophilic Fungus Malbranchea sulfurea

Six photosensitive polyketides, malbranpyrroles A–F, were discovered from the thermophilic fungus Malbranchea sulfurea by using intact‐cell desorption/ionization on silicon mass (ICD‐MS) and LC‐SPE‐NMR. These two strategies facilitate the searching and structural determination of unstable natural products. The ICD‐MS indicated that only brown hyphae of M. sulfurea can produce malbranpyrroles. The biosynthetic pathway of malbranpyrroles was evidenced by ¹³C isotope precursors and amino acid feeding experiments. The cytotoxicity data revealed that the conformation of the conjugated system in malbranpyrroles does not affect cytotoxic potency against cancer cell lines. In addition, the chlorine atom was shown to be the pharmacophore for cytotoxicity.
