Rational synthesis of an ultra-stable Zn(ii) coordination polymer based on a new tripodal pyrazole ligand for the highly sensitive and selective detection of Fe and CrO in aqueous media.

A mixed-ligand strategy has been used to construct stable luminescent coordination polymers (CPs). An ultra-stable Zn(ii) coordination polymer, [Zn(H3tpb)(Hbtc)]n (1) was hydrothermally synthesized by employing a new tripodal pyrazole ligand H3tpb and a classical carboxylic ligand H3btc (H3tpb = 1,3,5-tris(pyrazolyl)benzene, H3btc = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid). Complex 1 exhibits a 2D sql network.

[Role of BCL-2, caspase-3 and NF-κB in astragaloside inducing apoptosis of human NB4 cells].

This study was purposed to investigate the apoptosis-inducing effect of astragalosides on acute promyelocytic leukemia(APL) cell line NB4 and its mechanism. NB4 cells were treated with different concentrations (200, 300, 400 µg /ml) of astragalosides for 48 h. The cell proliferation was assayed by using CCK-8 method; the cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry with Annexin V-FITE/PI double staining.
