Essential Oils from and Their Metabolomic Profiling.

: Essential oils (EOs) have been exploited by humans for centuries, but many sources remain poorly investigated, mainly due to the low yields associated with conventional extraction. Recently, new techniques have been developed, like solvent-free microwave extraction (SFME), able to enhance efficiency and sustainability. The use of L.

1,3-Dithiolane as a Privileged Scaffold in Bioactive Derivatives: Chiral Resolution and Assignment of Absolute Configuration.

The 1,3-dithiolane ring has been recently rehabilitated as a chemical scaffold in drug design. However, for derivatives that are substituted in position 4, the introduction of a chiral center on the heterocycle demands the separation and characterization of the stereoisomers. We report the first chiral resolution and absolute configuration (AC) assignment for (1,4-dithiaspiro[4.

Peptide Nucleic Acids in Saturation Transfer Difference Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Experiments: A Simple and Valuable Tool for Studying HuR-Small Molecule Complexes.

Ribonucleic acid (RNA)-binding proteins (RBPs) play a key role in regulating RNA stability, fate, function, gene expression, post-transcriptional modifications, and cellular activities. Among the various RBPs identified to date, the Hu proteins have been the most extensively studied. Specifically, HuR influences several cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and stress response, and it is frequently overexpressed in various solid tumors.
