A series of potent BODIPY photosensitisers featuring tellurophene motifs at boron.

This article describes the synthesis and photophysical properties of a series of BODIPY photosensitisers that feature tellurophene motifs appended at the boron centre. These compounds were obtained nucleophilic substitution of various F-BODIPYs with lithiated tellurophene. The synthetic scope, photophysical characteristics and photosensitisation properties are discussed.

Belumosudil for chronic graft-versus-host disease.

Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) is a multisystem disease that is diagnosed in up to 70% of patients following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. In cGvHD, the donor immune cells attack the patient's cells, resulting in inflammation and fibrosis in multiple tissues. cGvHD can affect almost any organ and is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in transplant survivors.

When tumefactive demyelination is truly a tumor: case report of a radiographic misdiagnosis.

Oligodendrogliomas are slow-growing tumors that account for 15-20% of gliomas. This case report describes the case of an adult male patient diagnosed initially with tumefactive demyelination and multiple sclerosis, which was subsequently found to be a well-differentiated low-grade oligodendroglioma. This case emphasizes the importance of timely diagnosis in oligodendrogliomas and other brain tumors for the prompt initiation of appropriate therapy, to minimize the likelihood of disease progression, ensure symptom management and escalation of unnecessary treatments for multiple sclerosis.
