Article Synopsis
- * Early intermittent feeding of mice on a high-cholesterol diet speeds up atherosclerosis by altering arterial macrophage behavior and gene expression associated with ASCVD.
- * The Young Finns Study links early cholesterol exposure to increased carotid atherosclerotic plaque in adulthood, emphasizing the need for better hyperlipidaemia management early in life to prevent ASCVD.
Acetamide (CH3CONH2) is the largest molecule containing an amide bond that has been detected in an interstellar medium; it is considered to be a precursor for complex organic molecules (COM). We utilized the advantages of a para-hydrogen (p-H2) quantum-solid matrix host to perform efficient reactions of hydrogen atoms with CH3CONH2. The H-abstraction reaction from the methyl group of CH3CONH2 to produce the 2-amino-2-oxoethyl radical, ˙CH2CONH2, was observed as the sole reaction channel in solid p-H2 at 3.
