Introduction: Breast cancer is the second most common cause of central nervous system (CNS) metastases. It has been shown that the median time from breast cancer diagnosis to CNS metastasis is 30.9 months and that the overall median survival after metastasis is extremely poor at 6.

WO loading on γ-AlO significantly affected the yield of acrolein and the catalyst with 20 wt% WO loading showed the highest activity. The WO/AlO catalyst with 20 wt% WO loading showed higher activity and durability than the other supported WO catalysts and zeolites.

Synthesis and properties of oligonucleotides containing 2'-pyrenylalkyluridine.
Nucleic Acids Symp Ser
June 2000
The synthesis, binding and fluorescence properties of oligonucleotides containing the uridine modified at the 2'-position by a pyrene group using different length of linker arm have been described. It is demonstrated that the oligonucleotides possessing a C3-amide group at the 2'-position display an enhanced signal of the pyrene monomer fluorescence upon binding to DNA segments.
