Sequential targeting of YAP1 and p21 enhances the elimination of senescent cells induced by the BET inhibitor JQ1.

Chondrosarcoma (CHS) is the second most common bone malignancy with limited therapeutic approaches. Our previous study has found that Yes associated protein 1 (YAP1) is downregulated in CHS cells treated with bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) inhibitor JQ1. However, the precise role of YAP1 in CHS is largely unknown.

Half-sandwich cycloruthenated complexes from aryloxazolines: synthesis, structures, and catalytic activities.

Seven half-sandwich cycloruthenated complexes [Ru(p-cymene)LCl] (2a-2g) (L = 2-phenyl-2-oxazoline (2a), 2-p-tolyl-4,5-dihydrooxazole (2b), 4,4-dimethyl-2-phenyl-2-oxazoline (2c), 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,5-dihydrooxazole (2d), 2-(4-bromophenyl)-4,5-dihydrooxazole (2e), 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-4,5-dihydrooxazole (2f) and 2-(4-nitrophenyl)-4,5-dihydrooxazole (2g)) were synthesized and characterized. All half-sandwich cycloruthenated complexes were fully characterized by (1)H and (13)C NMR spectra, elemental analyses and infrared spectroscopy. The molecular structures of 2a, 2d and 2e were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods.

[Comprehensive evaluation of improving effects of different organic wastes on a newly reclaimed cultivated land].

There are many problems such as low soil organic matter, available nutrients and microbial activity, compaction, and poor tillage properties for a newly reclaimed cultivated land, and the establishment of a fast, effective measure for improving soil fertility quality is of importance to enhance the quality and production performance of the newly cultivated land. A field experiment was carried out to observe the effect of organic wastes on soil fertility of a newly reclaimed cultivated land, and compared the differences of different types of urban organic wastes. The field experiment included nine treatments, i.
