Kinetic Study and Reaction Mechanism of the Gas-Phase Thermolysis Reaction of Methyl Derivatives of 1,2,4,5-Tetroxane.

Tetroxane derivatives are interesting drugs for antileishmaniasis and antimalaric treatments. The gas-phase thermal decomposition of 3,6,-dimethyl-1,2,4,5-tetroxane (DMT) and 3,3,6,6,-tetramethyl-1,2,4,5-tetroxane (acetone diperoxide (ACDP)) was studied at 493-543 K by direct gas chromatography by means of a flow reactor. The reaction is produced in the injector chamber at different temperatures.

Epithelial-Myoepithelial Carcinoma of the Maxilla Arising From Minor Salivary Glands of Hard Palate: A Rare Case Report.

Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma is a rare malignant neoplasm of salivary glands. It is specifically found in the major salivary glands. The cases that emerge from minor salivary glands are rarely described.

A Giant Posterior Maxillary Intra-Sinusal Complex Odontoma: A Clinical Case.

Odontomas are the most common odontogenic neoplasms. They are generally small and asymptomatic. This article presents an unusual case of a giant maxillary complex odontoma, which obscured a part of the maxillary antrum and impacted a tooth.

The Impact of Victim Demeanor on Jurors' Perceptions of a Sexual Harassment Victim.

Despite the prevalence of sexual harassment in the workplace, little research has investigated the role of victim demeanor in perceptions of sexual harassment cases. The present study varied whether the victim cried while testifying by using drawings of the victim. Participants were presented with a civil trial summary and asked to make trial-related judgments.

Identification of Novel Compounds Inhibiting the Kinase Activity of the CDK5/p25 Complex via Direct Binding to p25.

Tamoxifen, the gold standard drug for endocrine therapy for breast cancer, modulates the phosphorylation status of the TAU protein in Alzheimer's disease by inhibiting CDK5 kinase activity. Its binding to p25 prevents CDK5/p25 complexation and hence a decrease of CDK5 activity. In breast tumors, this complex is involved in the proliferation and survival of cancer cells, as well as in the disease's prognosis.
