Novel Inhibitory Site Revealed by Mode of Action on the Metabotropic Glutamate 7 Receptor Venus Flytrap Domain.

Metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors play a key role in modulating most synapses in the brain. The mGlu7 receptors inhibit presynaptic neurotransmitter release and offer therapeutic possibilities for post-traumatic stress disorders or epilepsy. Screening campaigns provided mGlu7-specific allosteric modulators as the inhibitor (Gee et al.

Rhenium -Tricarbonyl Bisimine Chalcogenide Complexes: Synthesis, Photophysical Studies, and Confocal and Time-Resolved Cell Microscopy.

We describe the preparation, characterization, and imaging studies of rhenium carbonyl complexes with a pyta (4-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,3-triazole) or tapy (1-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,3-triazole)-based heteroaromatic N∧N ligand and thiolate or selenoate X ligand. The stability and photophysical properties of the selenolate complexes are compared with parent chloride complexes and previously described analogues with benzenethiolate ligands. Two complexes were imaged in A549 cells upon excitation at 405 nm.

Does self-directed learning address gaps in nursing student knowledge of Alzheimer's disease?

In the past two decades, deaths from stroke, heart disease and HIV decreased, whereas reported deaths from age-related Alzheimer's disease (AD) have increased. Future nurses will be caring for the rapidly escalating number of older adults facing increased AD risk, yet nursing students' knowledge has been shown to be limited regarding the age-related disease of Alzheimer's (and the most common dementia type) (Aljezawi et al., 2022; Mattos et al.

Incidence, clinical presentation, risk factors, outcomes, and biomarkers in de novo late acute GVHD.

Late acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is defined as de novo acute GVHD presenting beyond 100 days after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) without manifestations of chronic GVHD. Data are limited regarding its characteristics, clinical course, and risk factors because of underrecognition and changes in classification. We evaluated 3542 consecutive adult recipients of first HCTs at 24 Mount Sinai Acute GVHD International Consortium (MAGIC) centers between January 2014 and August 2021 to better describe the clinical evolution and outcomes of late acute GVHD.

Biobased epoxy reactive diluents prepared from monophenol derivatives: effect on viscosity and glass transition temperature of epoxy resins.

The use of reactive diluents is undeniably of paramount importance to develop epoxy resins which would meet more demanding and restrictive processes and applications in terms of viscosity and glass transition temperature. In the context of developing resins with low carbon impacts, 3 natural phenols namely carvacrol, guaiacol and thymol were selected and converted into monofunctional epoxies using a general glycidylation procedure. Without advanced purification, the developed liquid-state epoxies showed very low viscosities of 16 cPs to 55 cPs at 20 °C, which could be further reduced to 12 cPs at 20 °C when purification by distillation is applied.
