All four stereoisomers of 4-CFO-proline have been synthesized through a fluorodesulfurization approach using the corresponding 4-hydroxyprolines as starting materials. The investigation of their lipophilicity characteristics and comparison with those of other 4-substituted proline analogs demonstrated a similar impact of CF and CFO groups on log .

Article Synopsis
  • - The COVID Moonshot was a collaborative, open-science effort focused on finding a new drug to inhibit the SARS-CoV-2 main protease, which is crucial for the virus's survival.
  • - Researchers developed a novel noncovalent, nonpeptidic inhibitor that stands out from existing drugs targeting the same protease, employing advanced techniques like machine learning and high-throughput structural biology.
  • - Over 18,000 compound designs, 490 ligand-bound x-ray structures, and extensive assay data were generated and shared openly, creating a comprehensive and accessible knowledge base for future drug discovery efforts against coronaviruses.

The innate immune system is the first to respond to invading pathogens. It is responsible for invader recognition, immune-cell recruitment, adaptive-immunity activation, and regulation of inflammation intensity. Previously, two single-nucleotide polymorphisms of innate-immunity genes - rs5743708 (Arg753Gln) of the TLR2 gene and rs8177374 (Ser180Leu) of the TIRAP gene - have been shown to be associated with both pneumonia and tuberculosis in humans, but the data are contradictory among different ethnic groups.

2-Amino-2-(trifluoromethoxy)butanoic acid (O-trifluoromethyl homoserine) was synthesized as a racemate and in both enantiomeric forms. The measured pK and log D values establish the compound as a promising analogue of natural aliphatic amino acids.

The purpose of development of this clinical practice guidelines was to provide evidence-based protocols that help the practitioner and the patient make the right decision for the health assessment, treatment and prevention of pneumoconiosis. Pneumoconiosis is the interstitial lung disease of occupational origin caused by prolonged inhalation of inorganic dust, characterized by chronic diffuse aseptic inflammation in lung tissue with the development of pulmonary fibrosis. Currently, thereare no treatment that provide a cure pulmonary fibrosis and changes in the dynamics of decline in lung function.
