Arylacetic acid equivalents bearing a pyridine group undergo C(sp)-H/C(sp)-H cross coupling with diverse methylarenes in the presence of a copper based catalyst system. The reaction proceeds the formation of α-carbonyl radicals giving access to α,β-diarylpropionic acids. Preliminary study suggests that the catalyst system is capable of transforming arylbenzyl ketones into 1,2,3-triaryl ketones.

Effective diabetes management necessitates substantial behavioral and psychological modifications, including regular glucose monitoring, dietary adjustments, and medication adherence. However, treatment adherence remains suboptimal, particularly in developing countries, leading to poor glycaemic control, increased healthcare costs, and diminished quality of life (QoL).

View Article and Find Full Text PDFTLR (Toll-like receptor)-21 is a non-mammalian TLR and exhibits a unique function within the innate immune systems of fishes, birds, and amphibians. Despite its important role as PRR (pattern recognition receptor), research on TLR21 in many fish species, as well as in rohu (Labeo rohita), remains relatively limited. This article describes the molecular cloning of LrTLR21 (TLR21 in L.

The immunomodulatory effects of antidepressants, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are largely unclear and poorly understood.
