Hardware algorithm design and validation for nuclear radiation imaging based on Monte Carlo simulation.

The nuclear radiation imaging technology, aimed at illustrating the position and distribution of radioactive sources, has undergone extensive research. By relying on a simulated radiation imaging system for data acquisition, we can significantly expedite the development cycle of these imaging instruments. Establishing simulated experimental scenarios and radiation imaging systems is of paramount significance in obtaining output signals for algorithmic testing and validation.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives as novel and selective positive modulator of the small conductance Ca-activated K channels.

The type 2 small conductance Ca-activated K channels (SK2) have been considered as one of the most promising therapeutic targets for spinocerebellar ataxias type 2 (SCA2) by playing a critical role in the control of normal purkinje cells (PCs) pacemaking. Herein, a novel series of pyrrolopyrimidine derivatives were designed and synthesized from the lead compound NS13001 as subtype-selective modulators of SK channels. Among them, the halogen-substituted compound 12b (EC = 0.
